Lumia 520 battery draining extremely after officia...

I updated my Lumia 520 from black to cyan. Before battery was ok. But now battery is draining extremely fast. After one hour use almost 30% gone.I did hard reset but still situation is same. Please Nokia rectify this problem fast. I Googled and founded so many people have same problem after cyan update.

I have update my Lumia 920 to cyan around 2 months ago, and since then my battery was draining in less than a day mostly iddle. Before the update I could go 2 days and have still 20% left.
I have researched the problem, and found that a lot of people are facing the same issue. Shame on Microsoft/Nokia not to acknowledge the problem. I have tried every option suggested on the various discussion board without any success. The only thing I didn't tried was a hard reset for obvious reasons.
Last week I went on vacation, and used an international sim card, and suddenly my battery life was even better than before the update. I could go more than a day using my phone intensively (GPS, Pictures,...), and still have at least 30%-40% at the end of the day.
When I came back home, I return the original sim card, and change the following things in 'cellular + SIM':
1. I set  data connection off by default, and will turn it on only when needed (most of the time at home or at work I will use wi-fi anyway).
2. In Network selection I select my provider instead of choosing automatic, and select 3G. I will change it to 4g when I turn the data connection on.
It has been 15 hours since the last charge, and my phone is still at 90%. It seems to work for me (it might not work for every body). In any case it's only a work around until Microsoft acknowledges and fixes the problem.

  • 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

    Settings -> General -> Backroung App refresh
    Either selectively disable the ones you do not need, or just disable the feature altogether.  Esepcially for apps that would be using location services, this has the potential to be a huge battery drain.
    Also, in Privacy under Locations services, system services, disable at least the "popular near me" and "location based iAds" - both of these use location services a lot as they try to track your movements in real time.  You can disable everything in system services if you wish (won't harm anything).

  • Lumia 820 battery drain after "Black" update

    Hi all,
    Yesterday I finally received the black update on my NL820. After applying the update successfully I charged the phone to %100. Before I went to bed I had:
    Battery at %94
    Wifi - Off
    Data services - Off
    Location services - Off
    Bluetooth - Off
    Battery Saver - On
    This morning I wake up and it is unusually bright outside - the phone powered off, the alarm didn't go off and I overslept for work. I haven't touched any other settings after the update. Everything is the way I used it before. What is it that could drain a battery in the space of 8 hours from almost full to power off? I've had this happen on the same phone twice prior to the upgrade as well but then I thought I've forgot data services on or something. This time I'm sure everything was off.
    Please advise.
    Martin

    I have been using Lumia 820 since 1 year and have never faced any issues. But after the recent "black" update... my mobile battery drains out within few hours after i charge it 100%. I have to charge it 3-4 times in a day ..
    1. I dont have any GPRS connection.
    2. I use wifi at home (only evenings). The rest of the day.. I use it only for calls and texts.
    3. I have tried hard reset, but that dint help.
    4. After hard reset, I dint update my mobile software.
    I charge it till 11pm and when I wake up at 5 am .. I see the mobile is switched off and I cant depend on the alarm to wake me up . That makes me so nervous.
    Please bring out some solution to this problem. It is so irritating to charge the mobile for so many times in day.

  • Lumia 1520 Battery Discharge Issue After Updating ...

    After updating to Denim, my Nokia Lumia 1520 started to experience the following symptoms:
    Phone charges to 100%, I disconnect and use an app like Instagram BETA, Internet Explorer, Lumia Camera, or any game--after no more than 5 minutes of use, the phone gives a "Critical Low Battery" alert and shuts down. If I try to restart phone immediately, it makes it to the AT&T splash screen or lockscreen and then same battery message appears and shuts down. If I wait 10-15 minutes after the shutdown to restart phone (without recharging) the phone will stay on, but battery level will report to be in the low 20s or 10s (whereas no more than 20 minutes ago, it was 100%).
    When phone is at 100% battery: I take 2-5 photos or record mere seconds of video and I get the same "Critical Low Battery" alert. Upon restarting, some of the photos or video are nonexistent or corrupt files and battery level is reported at 2-5%.
    However, if my phone is plugged in to charger, none of these "Critical Low Battery" alerts come up and I am able to use phone as usual. Considering that I cannot take a vacation and capture nature's beauty with an AC adapter always connected, this is a serious drawback.
    Steps I've Taken:
    Soft-reset
    Full factory-reset
    Moved all apps off microSD card (this improved situation maybe 5%)
    Disabled almost all background app use in Battery Saver
    Replaced microSD card when I thought this was a memory write/read issue
    Installed "Battery" app to monitor battery use. After 750 data points were logged, my average battery life is reported at "16 minutes," which sounds about right.
    My warranty should be expired since I purchased the phone December 2013, so I'm checking in here if anybody has had any luck with battery replacements or with a solution to this issue? At the same time, this issue arose strictly after updating to Denim and I've seen other users report this EXACT scenario. Is there any hope for Lumia 1520 users on this?

    I bought Ipod Nano 2G and have this problem: after Charge 4 hours, then, when I use it , Ipod suddenly restart and the battery drains near to 98% of capacity, or when I power off the nano after use it, next morning or severals hours later, the battery is completly drain, and Ipod doesn't response. he Just response until I connect to USB port of my Computer or ITrip, and show the "extremely battery low... message".
    I use my ipod only in my car with my iTrip car, but some times y use it for some Long travels in plane, its works ok, but some days ago ( near to sept. /8 ) start with this failures.
    It's may be related with the new software version 1.3.1 ? Itunes install it some days ago in my Ipod and start with this problems.
    some one have the same problem?

    Well , after all the software test to see the battery behavior, my ipod still drains all battery power, even if the ipod are in off mode. but if I play songs after full charge it plays over 8 hours (IS NOT THE BATTERY THE PROBLEM) . but some times the Ipod reboot randomly and start with 2% of baterry charge after that.
    I test using 1.0, 1.1, 1.2 and 1.3.1 software. and the same problem.
    therefore: IS NOT THE SOFTWARE.
    So I decide send MY Ipod nano to the technical support office in my country/city using my APPLE warranty, now I just wait for the answer from the technichian.

    The app requires diffferent instructions to operate.
    You need to double-tap the numbers.  So if your PIN is 1234 you need to type 11223344.

  • Lumia 820 / battery drain while charging

    I have the Lumia 820 with the Navigon navigation app installed.  I went on a trip this past weekend and noticed a strange battery drain while driving to my destination. The drive was a little over 2 hours and I was charging the phone the whole time. I figured I would test it on the drive home. I charged the phone completely before starting the drive home. I was camping so I had to use the lighter jack in the car which is always on and charged the phone from less then 10% to 100% overnight.  Again the drive was a little over 2 hours, had the Navigon app open and running the whole time and the phone was plugged into the lighter and the charging icon was registering a charge the whole time.  The only other thing running was cellular data. NFC, Bluetooth, Wifi, Nokia Drive, all off. When I arrived home the phone was at 45% and was very hot.
    I upgraded from the Samsung Focus and using the Navigon app in the same car never ever had less power when I  I ended a trip to when I started a trip.  I use the Navigon app all time so this is a real issue.  I am also going to post this on the Navigon website.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.
    Thank you
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    I didn't have any problem with charging the phone, but I have another problem with the battery, I noticed that sometimes my battery started to drain so fast (I mean from 100 to 10 in less than 2 hrs!!!), even when I'm not using the phone! and when I pick the phone the area on the right hand side of the rear camera (which I believe the CPU located) is warm (it's not hot but warmer than rest of the phone). I managed my background tasks, etc. but didn't work. It seems that there is bug which sometimes the OS won't release (terminate) the processes (even after closing the app). I tried turn the phone on/off but didn't work until uninstalling the last application that just installed or opened. It happened 3-4 times and the last one was today when I opened my Nokia Music. At first I thought may be it's because of the 3G usage, but even after switching to the X-Box music to stream from my Micro-SD card the battery was draining fast.

  • Massive battery drain issues after the latest software update - phone hot

    After the latest software update (to the NI2 version) I have massive battery drain issues. The phone also stays hot. Even when I don't actively use the phone it seems to stay "awake" according to the stats. When I disable all data (Wifi and/or 3G/4G) it's perfectly fine. Does anyone else experience the same issues or has recommendations?

    Is the device trying to sync all your photos with the cloud?
    This is what I would do.
    Back up your photos and music onto a personal computer. Copy down important settings like for your email, and contacts you can't risk losing.. even icon placement of important apps. Diagram it out.
    Then perform a Factory reset on the device. Alternatively you might find the procedure for wiping the low level cache of the device posted in other posts on the site. That might fix the problem and avoid you losing settings and content on your device.
    Extremely bizarre behavior post updates are usually associated with low level cache issues that cause the OS to behave poorly.  Some people have reported their phones running hot and that could mean the radio is on constantly attempting to back stuff up to the cloud our restore stuff.
    Good luck.

  • 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.

    Do you use BBM very much, such as BBM Groups?
    Open the BBM app, tap the FEEDS or UPDATES tab and scroll all through that as far as you can.
    Close BBM and watch the same Dev Manager in two days, let's see if that reduces the BBM usage.

  • Battery drain faster after udating to iOS 8.1.2 ( iPhone 5s A1530 16GB )

    I have been wondering faster battery drain after updating to ios 8, I upgraded to iOS 8.1.2 it has been worst with this drain faster by 40% in draining, What shall i do??? I have contacted apple support and customer care i didn't get a solution. Please help??

    Hi Jaberboss
    I did start a similar thread on this issue myself, but seeing what I've read here I hope you're ok with me adding it here to
    This one is a true case of a phone with zero potentail (electrically)
    OK, I've done the rounds on this one, whereby I'm just adding to the list of complaints so that (hopefully) the powers that be, or not, in my phones case, might listen.
    Since updating my just over 12 month old 5s to 8.1.2, it has turned into a bag of spanners in respect of its battery life. Its literally gone from 24 or so hours between charges to less than 8 !!
    I have tried shutting all the apps down and even had it sitting in full airplane mode, where i've left it alone with the screen off, yet its dropping around 1% every 3 to 4 minutes, blinding!! Checked battery usage in settings after 30 minutes, guess what standby 29 minutes usage 1 minute.
    Also tried the full restore, but to no avail, still a bag of spanners!
    (slight update here)  Even took the SIM out with it in airplane mode and deleted all apps and a full reboot - same thing!
    Does anyone remember the good old days of a fixed land line, where the phone had to be plugged into the wall before you could actually use it? lol
    Nothing like a bit of retro ay, but some how I cant see this one catching on Mr Apple. Thanks

  • Iphone 5s battery drains fast after ios 7.1 update.

    Am I the only one who seems to be experiencing this? My iphone 5S battery seem to drain much faster than usual, and charge longer. I heard that the new update is supposed to increase battery life, and read comparison threads regarding other iphones that are capable of a much better battery life than mine.
    I've had my phone for 3 months, never have dropped it once or anything of the sort, if that matters. My battery drains to 50% within an hour or so after intense use on the lowest level of brightness, and I seem to lose about 5-7 percents when on standby for 5 hours or so. Is this normal? Is it perhaps due to the fact that I am mostly using 3g, and applications that require more processing such as tumblr (graphics and gifs) as well safari? I'm just worried that my battery may be draining to quick, despite the update which's supposed to make it much better according to many people.
    Thanks.

    Me too.
    I went from plugging in to charge at the end of the night, around 11pm, to barely getting through a workday with very light use.  With less than 10 hrs of standby and maybe 30 minutes with the screen even on I am rocking 15% battery life.  I'm also connected to wifi whenever at home or in the office, which accounts for over 9 hours of the standby time.
    I know people are suggesting turn off features... but eff that, 5 days ago I'd get through an entire day without any issue, under much heavier useage.  I don't want to have to turn on bluetooth everytime I get in my car and back off when I get out, I just want it to work when I turn the car on... I don't want to manually check for emails, I want it to tell me when an email comes. 

  • Nokia Lumia 520 battery death ?

    Hello,
    I've received my phone 2 weeks ago from a shop until then it worked good,
    Today i tried to charge my phone at school cause my battery was at 0% but after it my phone doesnt go on more i've used normal electricity power 230V for The Netherlands,
    i tried everything so far such as power+down volume put out battery ? whats going on,
    Also sometimes Nokia logo does appears and also the phone vibarate serval time's in about 2 second between

    There could be a couple of things at play here. Firstly it takes about a dozen charge cycles before the battery reaches optimum performance. You should find the battery life improving over the next week or two. The display and data transmission both very large battery drain functions. So it is possible, depending on how much time you spent surfing and downloading.
