Iphone 5 using burning data and battery

I have an Iphone 5 which uses abnormal amounts of data.
even with no programs running in the background it uses around 1 mb pr second.
this is monitored in an app.
the phone is hot and the battery goes from full to empty withing 5-6 hours.
using the monitor I can see it counting always, if it is connected to wifi that is being used, if not it uses 3G..
just yesterday over 500mb was used on 3G, thats in 1 day, in addition to this over 1.5GB was used on wifi...
Weird thing is that i switched from Iphone 4 to this one for the same problem.
I cannot see how this can be a sw issue since apps are not allowed to use data if the phone is not in use after 20 mins...
Anyone else experience this??

I got my new iPhone 5 just 3 days ago in Saudi Arabia from a certified apple retailer
I want to know about the exchange policy in Saudi Arabia
What did the "certified Apple retailer" have to say when you asked?

Why do you need to access your email? To reset the password?
If you're trying to change the password, you don't need to go to your email. If you know the answers to your security questions, you can reset it without using an email, as explained in the first section of this article: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5787. If you don't, you can contact Apple for assistance by going to https://expresslane.apple.com, then click More Products and Services>Apple ID>Other Apple ID Topics>Lost or forgotten Apple ID password.

IPhone 5 getting really hot and battery charge not lasting very long at all??

iPhone 5 getting really hot and battery charge not lasting very long at all??

Try some of these to save battery time:
Settings>Notifications>[Turn off any notifications you don't need]
Settings>General>Software Update (Make sure you're up to date)
Settings>Brightness & Wallpaper> Auto-Brightness on (And that your brightness is not to the max)
Settings>Privacy>Location Services>Turn off/Stop apps from using it
Settings>Bluetooth>Off
Settings>Mail, Contacts, Calendars>Fetch New Data>Manually
Settings>Wi-Fi> Off (When you don't need internet when you're out and about)
To stop overheating, note these:
Operating Temperatures: 0° to 35° C (32° to 95° F)
Non-Operating Temperatures: -20° to 45° C (-4° to 113° F)
Hope this helps!

Does tethering my iPad to my iPhone 4s use more data than using an iPad that has its own data plan?

Does tethering my iPad to my iPhone 4s use more data than using an iPad that has it's own data plan?

No, it won't work.. the Airports are not media devices.. they have no brains .. no media extensions.. and itunes must be running on a computer.
You can however watch movies from storage but not with itunes..
See how people use tools like VLC to get around Apple's built in iTunes limitations.

IPhone 4S uses 3G data even with WiFi network available

I've been trying to figure out why the iPhone still uses 3G data even when it has a WiFi network available. It's usually just a few MBs per day, and as such - I attributed to niotifications, location services, etc.
But today, I got a really nasty surprise...
As I woke up, my iPhone showed the WiFi indicator as usual, but internet was slow... as if it was using cellular data. Something i quickly confirmed by trying to access stuff on my internal LAN and not being able to.
Worst of all, my iPhone went through over 600MB of cellular data overnight - that's my entire data limit for a month! - meaning I'll have to pay for neary 400MB of excess data usage paid at overly inflated prices (I'll be paying nearly 3x my monthly bill just for the excess data!!!)
As if all the bugs I've been facing weren't enough: Invalid SIM, showing full strength 3G signal when it's actually "offline"... Now I have to face stupidly wasted mobile data when I'm at home within WiFi range?
I've been an iPhone use for years, and have upgraded every year to the new models... but this iPhone 4S has been my worst experience ever with a mobile device, and ruined all the trust I had in Apple devices...
I sincerely don't know what to do next... if I'll still wait for a 5.1 update that may/may not fix all the issues I (and thousands others, as seen by the discussions here) have been having... or if I cut my losses and try my luck elsewhere...
Tired of serving as a guinea pig and doing all this debug work for Apple...

The WiFi data is recorded separately - and the mobile data use was verified using the operator "reporting" service (and later sending me the warning SMS of the data use).
The iPhone was in the home screen, locked, and "sleeping" when the data was used, so the only option would be the iCloud backup - which, in any case, should never ever use the 3G data (and never has until today).
If the WiFi was not working, then it should either: not have internet access; not show the WiFi connected signal in the status bar. As it was, it was showing WiFi access, but using the mobile data just the same.
Which, from what I understand, could have "tricked" iCloud into doing its regular backup thinking it was over WiFi... but in reality doing it over cellular data.

Why is my iphone 3gs using excessive data?

Check your (push) notifications.
Settings > Notifications > Look at what applications are pushing information to your phone. Turn off the applications' notifications that you don't care about.
Settings > Email > Check how often your phone is checking email and sending it to you. Push will use the most data. Data usage goes down from there.
Check your running applications.
From your home screen, double-press the home (physical) button > Hold down an icon until they shake and the "X"s appear on their corners. Hit the "X"s to close out the application.
Some applications can continue to use your data while running the background even though you are not actively using the application.
Are you using YouTube?
YouTube, and any other video application, uses a lot of data.
Are you using Pandora?
Music applications can also use up data though not as much as video.

Samsung Galaxy S 5 - using automatic date and time

Using automatic date and time sets the date to November 27, 2014 instead of the correct date of September 25, 2014. What's going on? I haven't ever had a problem with this setting before.

Clear phone system cache & place phone in Airplane mode then do a power down (not a restart) of the phone. Next remove both SIM card and battery & wait for 1 minute or so. Then reinstall the SIM & battery and power phone on. If your signal is strong this should reset your data channel to the correct time.

It is possible one of the 10.6.8 updates may help:

Date and Battery icons playing up?

Hi all --
Have an annoying date and battery icon inconsistency - maybe its a recurring prob. for others, but havent been able to find the answer on the boards.
After opening the P.B. from standby, the time shown is the time I put P.B. to sleep. About five seconds later it resets itself to the current time. Last time this happened, I started getting kernel panics after not rectifying the prob. (doubtful its related) - all was fixed with a PRAM / PMU / NVRAM zap. have tried PRAM-ing again, but no change to time delay. (havent attempted PMU & NVRAM unless necess.)
The battery icon has also been showing incorrect usage 'time left' - until i switch between the 'percentage' and 'time' options in the battery icon drop down menu.
Is zapping the PMU / NVRAM / PMU the correct way to approach a fix for this?
Am I close?
Thnx for any advice in advance --
cheers,
J.

Generally, letting the phone completely discharge and then charging to 100% helps with this. If not, a Reset, and then a Restore if that doesn't work.

Automatic file generation using system date and time

Hi guys,
Iam trying to generate a path for file creation automatically using System date and time. I am running into errors with respect to special characters in filename. I am trying to parse the string to get date and time without the '/' and ':' but have not been successful. is there a better way to do it? Please help! I am trying to avoid a dialog box for user to enter a filename.
Thanks!
V
I may not be perfect, but I'm all I got!
Solved!
Go to Solution.

here is a little experiment .... building the path out of %m (month) %d (day) %(year) type stuff might help.

I restored my iphone 4 using i tune and now it is asking for activation. How to activate it..?

Setting up and activating iPhone
To set up and activate iPhone, turn on iPhone and follow the Setup Assistant. The Setup Assistant
steps you through the setup process, including connecting to a Wi-Fi network, signing in with or
creating a free Apple ID, setting up iCloud, turning on recommended features such as Location
Services and Find My iPhone, and activating iPhone with your carrier. You can also restore from
an iCloud or iTunes backup during setup.
Activation can be done over a Wi-Fi network or, with iPhone 4S or later, over your carrier’s cellular
network (not available in all areas). If neither option is available, you need to connect iPhone to
your computer running iTunes for activation. You might also read http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3424

In the numbers app, using the "date and time" function, is it possible to remove the time? I need to put together a list of dates, but I don't need or want times.

In the numbers app, using the "date and time" function, is it possible to remove the time? I need to put together a list of dates, but I don't need or want times.

When formatting your column to date/time, pick Date & time, and then pick the letter i in the circle to the right. Then scroll down and pick "No time"

Sorry... But... The Apple ID and Password that was Originally used to Activate the iDevice is required.
If you cannot get this information from the seller

You need to return the Device for a refund, as you will not be able to re-activate it.

Date selection will not print properly when using Microsoft Date and Time Picker Control 6.0 in Excel 2010

I have created a field input worksheet in which the user identifies start and end dates for training sessions, using the Date and Time Picker Active X Control. It works fine on-screen, but when the worksheets are printed, the dates that were selected
using the date picker calendar print out in an unreadable, huge font. The large font also appears in the print preview mode. I've tried modifying various properties in design mode, but nothing that I have tried will correct the problem.
Any ideas?

The DTPicker seems to have some bugs in it when used on a worksheet. I have overcome the above by setting the size properties to the same size as a cell and the Linked cell property to the
cell under the DTPicker. (Even setting the Linked cell had problems with an error message referring to the Check box property to be set to true so I just set it to true and inserted the linked cell and set the checkbox property back to
false.)
Then the VBA code below that Hides the DTPicker after a date is selected and unhides the DTPicker when the linked cell with the date is selected. The code is for 2 DTPickers so you will need to edit to suit your requirements.
Caveat: If the DTPicker is visible then you can't hide it by selecting the same date again. If this occurs then it is a multi step operation. First select another date and the DTPicker will hide, then click on another cell then back on the cell with
the date to unhide the DTPicker and then select the correct date.
Hope it helps and feel free to get back to me with any questions etc.
Private Sub DTPicker1_Change()
    Me.DTPicker1.Visible = False
End Sub
Private Sub DTPicker2_Change()
    Me.DTPicker2.Visible = False
End Sub
Private Sub Worksheet_SelectionChange(ByVal Target As Range)
    Select Case Target.Address
        Case "$E$5"     'This is the linked cell for DTPicker1
            Me.DTPicker1.Visible = True
        Case "$E$13"    'This is the linked cell for DTPicker2
            Me.DTPicker2.Visible = True
    End Select
End Sub

Difference between using new Date() and new Date(System.currentTimeMillis()

Hi All,
I have seen many open source api's where they are updating dates with the following code
new Date(System.currentTimeMillis())
when i print the new Date() it prints the same
what is the difference between using new Date() and new Date(System.currentTimeMillis()) ??
Thanks,
J.Kathir

when i print the new Date() it prints the same
It does because of backward compatability. This constructor exists in version 1.3.1 but not in newer versions.Really ? Please point me to where you read that.
API doc 1.5 : new Date() (still there, not even deprecated)
A quick look at the code for this constructor:    /**
     * Allocates a <code>Date</code> object and initializes it so that
     * it represents the time at which it was allocated, measured to the
     * nearest millisecond.
     * @see     java.lang.System#currentTimeMillis()
    public Date() {
        this(System.currentTimeMillis());
    }
