IPHONE 5s Battery Draining Really Fast

Hi, I have a Iphone 5s. The phone charges really slow, and dies really fast. I am barely on it now since this happen. I tried restoring at home, and also resetting. I took a trip to Apple two days ago, and they ran the diagnostic. He said the battery is healthy but something is wrong with the firmware or software. After he restored it but it still is doing the SAME thing. Could I fix this issue?

Take it back to the Apple store and tell them that didn't fix the issue. You might have a hardware issue. Before you take it back though do a backup on your computer.

  • IPhone 4 battery drains really fast and phone gets really hot

    I have an iPhone 4 and since November 15 my battery has been draining really fast and gets really hot when I use the phone. When I try to charge the phone with my computer it doesn't charge, but only charges with the wall hub. I have tried deleting the email accounts, deleting all apps, restoring with the backup, restoring without the backup, and still no luck. I went to the Apple store and they briefly looked at it and said it had water damage by looking at the water damage indicator in the charging port. They told me I needed to pay $150 for a new phone. I don't recall getting my phone getting wet and it seems to work fine except for the battery drain and the computer charging problem. iTunes still recognizes the phone. I thought it was a battery problem so I ordered a new battery and replaced it myself and the battery was still draining fast. When I had the phone open the other water damage indicators were still white (no water damage), it was just the charging port indicator that was red (water damaged). Also, when I charge my phone with the wall hub it charges very slowly. I have ran out of ideas and I could really use some suggestions. Thank you.

    i looked on the right there is no solution to my problem.i charge my phone to 100% after 2 hours with no usage at all of the phone with 3G off with wifi off with all applications shut down all notifications and locations off battery goes down to 50% when it was running on the older ios never had this problem in my iphone.when will this problem solved

  • IPhone 5 Battery draining really fast?!

    My iPhone 5C** is a week old. Brand new out of the box.
    Lately it drains 10% of battery while on standby in 4 hours. That's too much battery loss for 4 hours. My iPad 1 can last longer while in standby. I've left it various times on 7% and after 24 hours I find it on 3% and at that rate I doubt the iPhone can go 250 hours on standby...
    How is it that one of the first iPads can last longer than a brand new iPhone 5C?
    I always have Cellular Data and 3G disabled because I don't need them.
    I have iOS 7.0.4
    Any suggestions? I've followed various tips like disabling Background App Refresh.

    Hey, I have the same problem, I am using iPhone 5S and lost my original charger, so used a fake charger for a while until it broke down and messed up my battery I guess, now my battery is running out approx. 3 times faster. I checked battery battery capacity using "iBackupBot for iTunes" and it shows that it is 1500 and original is 1550 so it should be all right. I still have warranty, my phone is almost 1 year old, but when I talked to service they checked my phone and said that there are no problems, try to reset your phone. But it does not help. I have to charge it 3times a day.. I just bought an original Apple charger and it does not help either.  Help !

  • Iphone 4s battery draining extremly fast

    iphone 4s battery draining extremly fast, how annoying is that, Battery will be drain out within 12 hrs and I just usually watch 30 mins video (not using 3G/wifi) and 10mins on Phone .
    I always turn off my Siri, Auto Detect Time Zone, 50% Brightness, NO background Apps are running and Mail is manually updated.
    Does anyone facing the same problem?

    Go to advanced and set icloud to manual I used to suffer from this because of icloud it was stuck in a loop and always draining the battery, try also resetting your network settings if it didn't work reset all settings and set it as a new phone drain the battery and charge it from 0 to 100% to recalibrate the battery , hope this works for you

  • My iphone 3gs battery drains very fast

    my iphone 3gs battery drains very fast it won't last for whole day
    i just uses mail application and  facebook for some time
    can u tell why the problem is or need to change battery

    I'm having the same problem with my 3Gs.  In my case it is not the apps int he background or the brightness, or wifi or email push.  The folks at the apple stroe tell me that there is some software glitch that shows up every few months.
    I can only get rid of it by restoring my phone as a new device.  In which case I lose all of my contacts, settings and all data.  VERY frustrating. I had recived two new phones (before applecare ran out) and have done the resotre several times.  No one can tell me what is in that creates this probelm.  I've tried differenet chargers one by one in case they are the probelm.  one int he car, one in a kitchen outlet, one at my home computer (sync) and on at my office computer (non-sync). 
    Problem just showed up again randomly two days ago,  no new apps or hardware.  battery drains from full to 0 in two hours.
    Apple, please fix.

  • New MacBook Air 13´´ - battery drains really fast

    So I bought yesterday MacBook Air 13´´. I assumed it was going to be fully or half charged but the battery was dead when I opened the computer. Then I put it on charge and it took about 2-3 hours to fully charge it. After that the battery started to drain really fast, and I didn't expect that. I supposed MacBook 13´´has a battery which could last for about 13 hours, but this is to strange. I don´t have experience with Mac, this is my first Mac, so any suggestions would be appreciated.
    P.S. I updated OS X cause App Store said there's an available update. Don´t know if that has anything to do with it.

    I´m currently in Germany and I´m flying back to Croatia tomorrow. So I won´t be able to do that. :/
    I´ll try to drain battery to 0%, then recharge it again. I read somewhere that could help for first time charging and recharging.
    Don´t know is it normal for Mac to come with drained battery?

  • Iphone 5 battery drains super fast !! any solutions Apple??

    What a hick, unbelievable super fast battery draining on iPhone 5, I tried every thing to solve this big issue from reset every settings to a whole restore to the device the problem still exist, 100% battery life at 08:00 to 1% at 17:00 in the same day. Notice I'm not using 4G LTE, NO gaming, one or two calls max 5 min. Just a usual useage and still the battery still drinks a huge energy, what I'm trying now is turning off Location service hopefully it will do something to ger rid of the massive problem.
    Any tips!! Gent.
    Cheers,

    (wouldn't be surprised to learn that your prior phone was jailbroken).
    Since the 3GS, 4 and 4S I never used jailbreaking.
    "99.9999% of users have no battery issues using backups from a prior phone."
    Huh!! how do you know that?
    "Huh?  You would rather have a near useless phone, burning through the battery to save SMS messages?  Do you really re-read old texts???"
    Huh, will apple supose to figure out a solution. Do not defend some corrupted product.

  • Iphone 4s battery draining too fast

    I just received my iphone 4s and I have upgraded from my 3s, after holding on for so long I am so disappointed with the battery life. after 2 phone calls the battery drains 15 %, I have turned off all the features to make sure it lasts me at least till I can charge it again. any solutions out there, off course apple says there is no problem, just like we have no problems with the economy.

    Quick fix for you!!!!!!
    Go to settings//Location Services//System Services//turn "Setting time Zone" and "Diagnostic & Usage" OFF.
    These things will drain you to Zero fast. and tell Apple there is an issue with the Setting Time Zone feature.
    Its constantly locating your phone second by second when it's suppose only work when you leave one time zone and go to another.

  • IPhone 5S Battery Draining Unusually fast

    I got an iPhone 5S in November and for the first few months it was working fine. For the past two weeks I have noticed the battery draining unusally quickly. Like the battery drains an avg 1-2% on 5 mins of me just using the phone on Instagram. I regularly close all my apps and live in Pakistan where there is no 3G so the LTE issue should not come into play either. I have read countless articles on how to fix your battery life and have tried everything from turning location services off to brightness to anything that is being suggested, even re installed iOS7 on my phone. I have to know charge my phone three times a day from it usually giving me a full day on standby. Any suggestions please?

    Take it back to the Apple store and tell them that didn't fix the issue. You might have a hardware issue. Before you take it back though do a backup on your computer.

  • Iphone 4s battery draining very fast and phone getting hot - downloaded ios 6 about 2 weeks back

    my iphone 4S gets discharged in few hours - started doing this 2 days back
    I downloaded ios6 about 2 weeks back
    Phone getting hot too
    battery drains even without using the phone- and phone becomes hot
    have tried turning it completely off and restarting it but still battery draining problem persists
    please guide

    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.

  • Iphone 5 battery draining ultra fast

    No, im not talking about the usual rapid draining here...
    Got a Iphone 5, iOS 7.
    Almost everyday the phone could show 50%  + - left, and in just a couple of minutes its down to 10% and then shortly after turns of telling me its empty, how is that possible?
    Very often around 50% or less, the phone also turns off directly, and when trying to turn it on again, the empty battery and charger symbol shows in the display, but if i hold the power and home button for a hard reset 8-10 secs, im able to turn it back on, and it shows the same % of power 40-50%
    This has been going on since last fall now, even after several fw updates...
    Suggestions, or other with similar experiences?
    No, this has NOTHING to do with all the new apps pushing and all that, this is something else...
    Btw, ive tried the cycling stuff, emptying it, fully charge it and all that stuff...
    It must be a software issue.

    So when the battery goes down to 10% from 50%, and one minute after i plug in the charger, it goes back to 50% again and stays there for a normal period of time, until it gets empty again, its the battery, and nothing else?
    On what information is that based on? Links to backup that, or is it just something youve heard other people claim?
    To me, its seems odd that the battery would perform normaly one day, and the next not.
    Its like saying the car is out of gas, but suddenly gets half full again.
    If a battery fails, it doesnt repair itself...

  • IPhone 4S battery draining too fast...Need to charge 3 times a day

    Finally after 4 years I was very excited to get an iPhone that has all the features I wanted…but I am disappointed so far.
    I purchased an iPhone 4S 32GB on 10/7 and has not been impressed with the battery life. I have to charge my iPhone at least 3 times a day. I go to work at 8 AM and by 11:30 AM the battery is at 20 %, so I charge it again which takes only about 60 to 120 minutes to charge, and by 5:30 PM I have to start charging again…the third charge has start around 11:30 PM and I have to keep the phone plugged overnight otherwise it will be dead by 6 AM.
    I have read other posts on the web and people have suggested turning notifications, location services…etc which I went ahead and did but that did not change the battery issue. What is the purpose of having the iPhone 4S if all the features have to be turned off.
    I always try to kill apps that running in background but still no fix to battery issue.
    on 10/19/11 I went to Apple store and exchanged the phone with new one. The apple rep activated the phone for me and the charge was at 78 %. I left the store and 10 minutes later I was at my house, but again I was surprised to see the battery has drooped to 65 % within 10 minutes. While I was driving home I did not touch the phone or make/receive calls.
    When I got home I plugged the phone and when it was charge at 100 % I unplugged it and 40 minutes later the battery dropped to 70 %.
    Today I unplugged my iPhone 4s at 8:20 this morning with 100% and by 10:43 AM I am down to 63%. By 11:13 AM the battery was at 54% and by 11:46 AM the battery was down to 44% with me not touching it. I have turned everything off such notifications, locations services...etc and nothing in the background is working and I only used it for a 10 minute conversation.
    It seemed that a lot of users are have similar issue. Not sure if the issue related to iOS 5, iPhone or bad batch of iPhone or iPhone batteries.
    Before getting the iPhone 4S i had a 3GS from a family member that i had to charge at least 3 times a day. The only reason I got the new 4S is to not have to deal with frequent charge. I think I am 90 % close to returning the phone back to Apple and wait few months before attempting to purchase another phone.
    Thanks.....B

    What made the trick for me was to drain the phone completely - until it dies. (It took quite a while to go from 3% to 0...). Then, charge it overnight.
    Previous days I would start charging it with the battery at 10-15%, on red. Also for the last week I've been trying disabling functions, with the hope of finding what was the "offending" piece but without much success. Still was loosing about 10% per hour, just by using it to check emails, maps, and sometimes a call.
    Today is almost two hours since I left home, with everything turned on again, used mail, maps with traffic during the ride to work, some browsing - using it "normally" - and the battery is still at 95%.
    That looks more like normal to me.!!
    Might try to drain it to 0% again as many other suggested, but if it is a battery charger "calibration", it shouldn't be necesary to do it more than once.
