  • Why is my battery life so short on Iphone 4?

    Why is my battery life so short on my new I phone 4 with Verizon?

    if you have checked the specs and it all works out, you can do a number of things. first i would suggest that for a dat you turn off 3G and cellular data to see if your service is running it  down. you can do thing by going to settings-general-network-then turning them off. if this still doesn't work then try running it all the way down to 0% then giving it a full charge. i noticed that if regularly if you run the app Battery Pro Boost Magic to see whats taking up so much of your battery. if all of this fails to work then your battery might be defective so contact apple and try to get it replaced.

  • HT4623 why is my battery life dieing so quickly

    I recently updated my ipad2.   Since then, my battery life dies so quickly.    I can use it once, close it, then open it again and the battery life is down 40%.    I used to get two days of life before the update.   I closed out all the "Location" request, the auto updates to apps, everything I thought was draining the battery life.  Why?

  • Why is my battery life so short?

    I bought a brand new battery but only get about 2hrs of life out of it.  I've gone through the support pages and tips for improving battery life, but it hasn't changed.  Can anyone help me with this?

    Is it an Apple battery or a 3rd party knock off?
    Do you have your brightness on full? A bright screen ***** battery life.
    What are you running when you are using it? A bunch of apps? Watching movies? Playing games? Encoding video/audio?
    There are a lot of reasons that a battery dies quickly, we need more info.

  • Why is my battery life so bad on my iphone 4s. I signed up for a 2 yr contract with a new iphone 4s. The battery life didn't last a day. I went back to Apple and they replaced it with another iphone 4s. This one is just as bad. The iOS 5.0.1 does nothing!

    I have never been so disappointed with an Apple Product such as the Iphone 4s. When I signed up with a new 2 year contract, I received my iphone 4s. I charged it fully the night before, then it didn't even last the day (with minimal usage). I turned off Location Services, Wi Fi, and Bluetooth, this helped a bit. But what is the point of turning these services off, when I NEED THEM!!!  The wonderful new Siri doesn't work properly without Location Services turned on.
    So I upgraded to the iOS 5.0.1. version - that did absolutely nothing to assist the battery life.
    Apple, what are you going to do about it?  My new Apple phone is a LEMON!
    If I had of known how bad the battery life is on the iphone 4s, I would have got a Samsung Galaxy 2!!!!!

    It doesn't really matter whether I am talking to Apple or not (and I'm sure they monitor these comments), I want everyone to know how bad this new iphone 4s is, and all of it's problems.
    Apple have already launched an upgrade to the software - it obviously did not help, as many around the world would concur.
    As far as being patient and waiting for another "update in the works" is concerned, it is just not satisfactory. This is not a cheap phone, and those who are experiencing these problems, should not have to be paying a substantial amount of money, for a very smart phone, that obviously, has some serious problems.

  • Why is my battery life so short? Like one day, even when I'm not using it.

    I've had this I phone only a little over a month and hardly used it at all. The battery is lasting a shorter and shorter time. Now it's down to about a day and a half, even when only on standby.

    You say you've had the phone a little over a month, but your profile says it's an iPhone 3G. Did you mean 3Gs? The iPhone 3G came out in 2008 and hasn't been sold in over a year. If you got it used, it's entirely possible the battery is losing its ability to hold a charge. They can only take so many charge cycles.

  • Found the reason why my battery life was short

    As topic says, I found the reason why my battery life was short.
    Having had the Iphone 4 since launch, I've always been impressed by the battery life.
    So when it started to go from 100% to 50% overnight, with no use I started wondering what caused this.
    I my case it was the wireless network, before I used to have just one wireless router, but recently I bought a accesspoint using it as a signal repeater(booster), giving me 100 % wifi coverage at home.
    Since the repeater has the same wireless SSID as the router it seems to confuse the iphone, making it switch between connecting to the router and the accesspoint nonstop and therefore draining the battery.
    Disconnected the accesspoit and now things are back to normal.

    If you have just one wireless router you can't turn the accesspoint off, you could try turning wifi off on the phone and see if that helps.
    In my case the wifi range of the router and the accesspoint overlapped each other, making the iphone constantly switch between them.

  • Since I downloaded OS X lion, why is my battery life on my Mac Book Pro suffered

    Why has my battery life suffered, since I downloaded OS X Lion on my Mac Book Pro?    How can I increase the battery life?

    Get gfxCardStatus. It is a free menu bar application that keeps track of which graphics card your MacBook Pro is using at any given time.
    <http://www.macupdate.com/app/mac/33905/gfxcardstatus>
    When you are running on the battery, you want to make sure you are using the "Integrated" graphics unit, as it is more power efficient.
    You might also want to run Applications -> Utilities -> Activity Monitor and see if there are any processes which are consuming an excess amount of CPU non-stop.

  • Why is my battery life worse after software update.

    Why is my battery life worse following software update?

    Dont Bother Audre
    If you have updated to 6.1.1 and your phone is outside the warrenty perios, then you WILL have issues, so you take your phone to Apple and they will give you a replacement for £139 and they will also say its much cheaper what you paid for your handset!!!!
    Just wait for the next update - If they have a heart and care for the 4s users, they will fix the battery issue too
    Thanks

  • Any way to remove the kitkat update?  Once I downloaded the KitKat upgrade, i was unable to read text messages or MMS messages. Battery life really short, and now I'm unable to get it to load, phone is unusable.

    Once I downloaded the KitKat upgrade, i was unable to read text messages or MMS messages. Battery life really short, and now I'm unable to get it to load, phone is unusable. took phone into the Version store, and they were not able to get it to work either..

    I have 3 Motorola M on my account, one updated correctly, and one has not been updated to the new version.  I have since taken the broken phone into the store, and they customer support people were not able to get it to load as well.  Pretty much told me there is nothing they can do to make it work again, But I can buy a new phone at full price since I still have 6 months on my contract.  Oh that's nice, I can see having to pay full price if the phone was broken by something I did, but not because of a software update. Its very frustrating and not right!

  • Hey I m experiencing vry poor battery life on my newly purchased iPhone 4S. It's dropped by 10% within just 15 minutes of use over 2g. It's simply terrible. Plz apple fix it. I will regret my purchase if you don't fix it soon.

    Hey apple I m experiencing vry poor battery life on my newly purchased iPhone 4 S. I was vry happy initially with my purchase but
    now I m regretting it. Plz fix it soon. I m not upgrading 2 iOS 5.0.1 as it may further affect my battery life. The battery is draining at a phenomenal rate. Within HDTV 5 minutes if use it was down to 95% 4m 100% :( plz release the new version or I vil b in a great trouble.

    Apple is not here.
    Your complaints are falling on deaf ears here.
    If you are so unhappy take it back to Apple and either ask for your money back or for them to repair it. There is no other way.

  • I have a new iphone 5 64 gig model and find the battery life extremely short compared to my old iphone 3gs with 16gig...why?...the claim is that the battery life is improved. I am running all the same apps, latest software, etc. on a new unit?

    Very short battery life on new iphone 5 with 64 gig memory. Old 3gs with 16 gig had much longer battery life. Why?
