IPhone 5 battery drain since iOS 8.2 update

hello,
my name is Udi, from Israel.
i have an iPhone 5 which i purchased in June 2013.
since the beginning, i have always kept the battery saving "rules", including correct charging of a lithium ion battery, auto-brightness off, reduce motion on, push notifications off, background app refresh off, cellular data off when not in use, etc. etc.
since updating to iOS 8, my battery life has decreased a little. but since updating to iOS 8.2 a few days ago, i have experienced, what is in my standards, a serious battery drain. e.g. when i sleep, with my iPhone on airplane mode at night battery decreases by ~15%.
i have tried everything, including restoring the phone and using a backup.
what can i do?
will a restore from scratch (without using a backup) help?
thanks in advance =)

If this does not help, get your phone checked by visiting an Authorized Apple Service Provider or Apple Store next to your place, or contact Apple Support and talk to them. They can check the battery online.
You can also visit this page to do that: iPhone - Contact Support - Apple Support
Click on Apple Support, then on ->Battery, Power &Charging ->Battery questions and troubleshooting, and follow the instructions.

  • Iphone 5 battery problems since ios 6.1 update

    Hi, Just sent my iphone 5 back to apple after poor battery life since did ios 6.1 update, has anybody else had this problem?
    Also Apple say they are sending me a replacement unit, is this new or refurb?
    Many thanks.

    It will not matter, because it will be a perfect replacement iPhone 5. It will still have the remainder of your Warranty and if you purchased it, AppleCare coverage. If there are any problems they will be solved for you.

  • Battery drain since 10.3.1 update

    Anyone else notice their battery draining a bit faster? When I look at my device monitor, my display is sucking 16% of my battery, and my brightness is turned all the way down. My setup and use is the same as it was before I updated to 10.3.1 from the previous 10.3.0.
    Not sure why since the update the display is utilizing so much resource. Prior to the update it would be around 6-8%.

    How long have you waited? As always after any OS update of any kind, regardless of method used, one should wait 48-72 hours before making any judgements about lag, performance, or resource consumption.

  • IPhone 4 crashing since ios 6.0 update

    I'm running IOS 6.0.1 on my Verizon iPhone 4 - since upgrading to ios 6 my phone has been experiencing random cashes as in it resets/reboots itself with the apple logo randomly and I've also been able to reproduce it by rearranging multiple apps on my home screen to another page. Updating to 6.0.1 did not help. Anyone else having similar issues.

    Bryan, I am in the same boat as you. I installed ios 6.0.1 on my iPhone 4 last week and it has been a disaster ever since. It crashes at least 3 times per day and is slow. Sometimes it will freeze for no reason. I have done 2 hard reboots so far and the situation has still not improved. Also, the battery is being drained at over twice the rate it was when I was using ios 5.
    I am telling everyone iPhone user I meet about the issues in the hopes they don't update their ios like I did. Apple should have waited to release this operating system until these major issues were fixed. This goes beyond just the usual teething issues associated with a new Operating System. So far I don't have any answers and can't find any solutions. :(

  • Battery Drain since 7.1.2 update on 2nd Gen iPad

    SInce updating a few days ago, my iPad is burning through its battery at record pace.  I swipe up to close apps., make sure location services are off on all but 3 apps and make sure background app refresh is off on all but 6 apps.  I cannot figure out what is going on?  I've been on for 2 hrs. and am down to 57%......any suggestions are appreciated?  (I am on my home WiFi)

    Thanks Philly_Phan for that phone number.  I'll call them on Monday and see if they can help me with my problem.  I appreciate the time you took to help me out.  Have a great weekend.

  • HT1476 iPhone dies faster since iOS 6 software update

    i currently have two problems. 1. my iphone will only charge while its turned off. 2. my battery dies faster then it used to be after the previous problem happened on October 1st. 3. my speaker/ringer on my phone has stopped working, my sounds will only work while my headphones are plugged in. no sound will come out anywhere. CAN ANYBODY HELP ME?

    I final piece for me in the jigsaw following on from this
    http://www.care4pcs.co.uk/2012/10/how-to-be-happy-gmail-user-on-iphone-or.html 
    is to turn off wifi when you do not need it. When I leave the house I turn off wifi, because the majority of the times when my iPhone has got very hot and crashed is when I am away from home. I suspect that if the iPhone is in the vicinity of public wifi (wheather secure or not secure) it will try and connect, even if you have 'automatically join known networks' set to off. This is easy of course if you have an unlimited data contract for your iPhone. I may be wrong, but it is working for me. It makes sense for me because it is another way of reducing the work the processor (and battery) has to do and therefore reduces the chance of overheating.
    Having said that, I never had this problem with my iPhone 4. I now have a 4S.
    Try it. Hope it works for you.

  • Battery Drain after iOS 6 Update on my iPhone 3GS -16G

    My iPhone 3GS 16G on iOS 6 after update.
    2 - 3 hours it's flat & thats from a full 100% (over night) charged phone with no use
    & then keeps switching on & off for 20mins or so in charge mode after it's been pluged in to the charger.
    Never had a problem on the old iOS 5.1.1 got up to 2 Days on standby .
    Never had a problem with my phone ever until the new iOS 6 install.
    ... GET IT SORTED APPLE PLEASE A.S.A.P

    Got onto Apple Teckies yesterday & spent about 1.5 hours on the phone with a very helpfull bloke
    that went through everything.
    At this stage my phone has been reinstalled with iOS 6 as a New Phone (Like a test mode) so NONE
    of my APP's or Settings only my Contacts from iCloud (As a New phone would come out of the box).
    ... From the time we finished uploading the iOS 6 softwear untill now my phone has only used 40%
    battery so it's looking good.
    If this works I then have to conect my phone with my iTunes & Reinstall from my Back Up to get all
    My App's & Settings back.
    ... Then we will see if it has worked.
    ... Will let you all know what happens in the next 48 Hours.

  • When I send a PDF by email the recipient sees only a blank form on the iPhone and iPad. This has only occurred since IOS 7 was updated

    When I send a PDF attachment by email the recipient sees only a blank unfilled form. This has only occurred since IOS 7 was updated. The email with the PDF when recieved by my MAC is OK, but my phone and iPad are not!
    Any advise would be appreciated.

    I have the same problem.  Sought to insert a pdf into Apple Mail after editing a form pdf and only the blank form shows.  I didn't use Preview to generate the form, just Acrobat.  And, the filled in form inserts perfectly into an email when I use Outlook for Mac.  Problem only with Apple Mail.
    HELP!!

  • Location services, Celular data, Usage and Stand by & fast battery drain on iOS 4.3.5

    Hi all,
    I've been experiencing some trouble with fast battery drain since I have updated to iOS 4.3.5, never experienced it before. I've spent some time reading out through the web, including the Apple Discussion forums, and never found anything conclusive that could lead me to a solution. With some hints from many places and some particular obstination for fixing the problem, I've managed to find a solution. I was willing to share this here just to see if anyone else had the same problem and try to figure out wheter this is a bug or just an ignorant user like me
    This is the configuration and symptoms I had for my iPhone 3GS with iOS 4.3.5 (didn' happen until 4.3.4):
    Location services enabled, with several apps been allowed to use it;
    Celular data (and 3G) turned off;
    Usage and Stand by times reported always equal since last charge (really weird, although other have already reported this);
    Cell phone overheated;
    Battery drain really fast, dropping from 100% to 50% in about four to five hours with almost no use at all.
    The following steps solved my problem:
    Close all applications to make sure nothing is running in the background;
    Reset statistics in order to observe correctly the celular data traffic;
    Make sure you have access to the internet over Wifi;
    Turn on Celular data and 3G for a short time (2 minutes should be enough). Observe celular data exchange stats: for me it was 3Kb download and 2Kb uploaded, although no application was running in the background (and there was also no need for celular data, since I was connected over Wifi);
    Turn off Celular data and 3G.
    Turn off (completelly!) Location services;
    No more overheating, usage and stand by being reported equal nor battery fast drain noticed: everything was back to normal.
    I have come to the following conclusions: it seems that Location services causes problems with Celular data turned off. I'm not sure whether Location services should work at all with Celular data turned off, but I also believe it doesn't give it the right to drain my battery so fast . I'd like to here from others just to see if anyone has experienced a similar thing and if the solution above helped fixed it. It would be interest if we could confirm this is indeed a bug in iOS 4.3.5.
    Best regards,
    Adriano

    Some further testing and observation lead me to new conclusions. I looks like the problem is not actually related to Location services, but to some buggy application trying to access data when it's not available at all. Even closing all apps, the problem doesn't go away untill Celular data is enabled (and then disabled again).
    I still believe this shouldn't be the regular behaviour.

  • Iphone Battery Life on IOS 7.1

    My battery life seems to have gone south since my upgrade to IOS 7.1. Does anyone know what I can do to stop the rapid drain? Can't even go a full day with avg use since the upgrade.

    Hello Fatboy1351,
    I certainly understand the importance of having the longest battery life possible on the iPhone.  I recommend reviewing the following resource for some information about extending your battery life:
    Battery & power
    Is your iPhone battery draining too quickly or not holding a charge? Try restarting it first. You can also adjust several settings to extend the battery life of your iPhone.

  • Iphone battery draining fast after reboot

    hi, my iphone battery drains completely from 100% to 0% in a few hours if I switch the phone off and turn back on. i recently found this out once after I switched off the phone.....But there is no problem (battery can last 1~2 days for normal use)if i do NOT switch off after recharge.
    Is this a software issue or hardware?? Has anyone got the same problem? Thank you so much.

    A couple more diagnostic tidbits.....my iPhone exhibited odd behavior after downloading the Star Gazer app from the App Store on Sunday. I activated the "arrange icon" feature to move the app icon for Star Gazer to a new position on my iPhone and after I moved it the icon for the app next to it (Weather Channel App) was absent but the label was present. When I slid my app screen back to the home screen and came back, the Weather Channel App icon was visible and the Star Gazer app was now absent but the label was present. I've also had some odd flashes of the home screen after unlocking my phone (I have it secured with a PIN to protect my data). Is this and IOS 4.1 issue?
    It is not an iOS 4 issue; it is a very rare problem, and has occurred with all versions. But if you search you will see reports are in the dozens, with 100 million phones in use that's a vanishingly small number. It usually means that memory in the phone is corrupted. If rebooting the phone doesn't fix it you should restore the phone using iTunes.

  • My I message is not working, since IOS 8.3 update.

    My messages is not working properly, since IOS 8.3 update. Message are left hanging as undelivered. When I tap on "try again" nothing happens. Even messages to known contacts with I phones, appear in green and does not get delivered anyway. I have reset my i phone several times to no avail. I like my I phone 6+ as a camera. All other functions are less than impressive.

  • I started to do a backup from my iphone 5s following a notice the device gave. but it was unsuccessful and in the first use I saw my iphone battery drains drastically. what should i do now?

    I started to do a backup on my iphone 5s following a notice the device gave. but it was unsuccessful and in the first use of my iphone I saw my iphone battery drains drastically. I had upgraded the software to ios 7.1. what should i do now? is this a problem with the battery?

    Basic troubleshooting from the User's Guide is reset, restart, restore (first from backup then as new).  Try each of these in order until the issue is resolved.

  • Autofill autocomplete does not work in Safari on 3gs since ios 6.01 update

    I have tried many fixes but cannot get autofill autocomplete to work on Safari since ios 6.01 update. Any other fixes?

    I also have the same Exact Problem, only your explanition appears more technical and understandable. This problem appears more severe on YouTube.com videos and alike, however it is also severly choppy and problematic on other sites. Surprisingly Live Broadcast videos work better than not Live videos, however this is not something I'd like when my data isn't throttled yet. I crosstested it to see if there is any issues on my iPhone 4S (iOS 6, last version) and Galaxy S4 (Android Kit Kat, last version on S4) and there is no issues on those devices so it is an iOS 8(+0.1/0.2) and iOS 8.1 problem and I am 100% confident about it. 
    I do think it is the video player's problem with Websites and Webstreaming. There is no problems playing music videos on my device's storage. I didn't get that many error messages but it just doesn't play properly on Safari and Chrome, like what you are experiencing too. I may go ahead and report it too because it is gotten to a point where it is annoying to watch videos. It is not just an over 4G (+ or - LTE) only issue, it is also via Wifi even so it is a tad better. I can't tolerate playing a video 15 seconds in, have to wait 15 more seconds for it to play, it plays to 0:35 then I have to wait 15 more seconds. Even a 240p video, it does it so, it is clearly not a tolerable bug. I don't have a work around so far (tried everything from reset to wipe the phone and reinstall all the apps). 
    My Device is an iPhone 6+ with iOS 8.1 (yes, it is not just exclusive to the iPhone 5S. I assume it also effects the iPhone 6 based on technical specifications).
