Maps draining battery after closed

Hello,
I'm not too sure it's a z3 compact issue or a Google maps issue, but here's the problem:
After using Google maps with location on, the app keeps draining a massive amount of the battery, even after turning off the location and closing the app. I've noticed when I go to settings-power management-battery usage-maps that the GPS time keeps running despite both location and app being closed. Location history and reporting are off under location settings.
Only way out I've found so far is restarting the phone, which is not ideal.
Anybody with same issue? Any fix?
Thanks

Hi Nosfe,
Welcome to the community! Since you're new please be sure that you have checked out our Discussion guidelines.
You could try uninstalling the latest update to the Maps application and then simply reinstalling, it could be due to bad install.
Menu > Settings > Apps > Downloaded > Maps > Uninstall Update
Let us know if this helps.

So my iPhone 4S started draining battery after recent update, battery got changed and it worked perfect for 3 days, all of a sudden the phone won't stay on unless connected to mains... Cannot receive any signal "searching" constantly. HELP

So my iPhone 4S started draining battery after recent update, battery got changed and it worked perfect for 3 days, all of a sudden the phone shut down and now won't stay on unless connected to mains... Claims its at 100% battery but thats impossible as it was at 30% before it shut down randomly.
Cannot receive any signal "searching" constantly.
Turns off as soon as removed from usb ... wont stay on connected to laptop!
HELP!

The iPhone includes a one year warranty. If an Apple store is not nearby, you can call AppleCare and handle an exchange under warranty over the phone. The exchange will be shipped to your door - someone must sign for the delivery so if no one will be at home, have it delivered where you work. You use the same box to return the existing iPhone back to Apple. Return shipping label and tape to reveal the box incuded - call the carrier with number incuded when the box is ready to be picked up. AppleCare will request a credit card in the event the existing iPhone is not returned within 10 days after the exchange under warranty is received.
Hardware can fail - it happens, which is why there is a one year warranty.

It not the service pack mate, it the new Map 3.08 that comes with the OTA update. Or even worse, apparently 3.08 is embedded with the V25 firemware for N8.

Lit up screen draining battery after flash message

I am using 3GS model. After my last upgrade to 4.3.3 after recieving flash messages my phone's screen lights up again after few seconds, and remains like that. It responds only after pressing home button after that. so if it is at night (during sleep), it remains on throughout the night & it drains my battery. please tell the solution to correct this error.

Nothing obvious here, but better get rid of that remnant of CleanMyMac2. Also check if all software with kernel extensions, launch agents and launch daemons is still necessary and up to date (if not uninstall or update).

Macbook Pro heating up and draining battery after yosemite upgrade.

On Friday, I upgraded to Yosemite and I really like it. However my computer keeps heating up very quickly when doing simple tasks and the battery also drains. About 1% every 2 minutes when on Safari and having Pages open in the background. What can I do to slow down the battery drain. Before, on Mavericks I could get a whole day on Safari but now about half a day.

Maverick draining battery after upgrade MBP 2009

I upgraded my MBP 2009 2.8 GHZ intel core 2 duo to Maverick, before upgrading the battery life was around 5-6 hours now the battery
level drops quickly and I only get around 2 hours battery life.
I have reset the SMC as per this web site and performed a permissions fix and verify disk (no issues) and have waited a week now for spotlight to do its thing
but still the same issue.
I have notice that the bottom on the notebook gets hot as if running an intensive app but no apps are using significant power.
It is as if I have switch the graphics to high performance but the energy saver setting say better battery life.
This issue may have started after I switched the graphics to high performance and after setting this back to better battery life I noticed that after logging out
this setting reverted to graphics high performance.
could the graphics still be in performance mode but indicating better battery life?

IPhone 4 battery still draining fast after ios 5.0.1 update

5.0.1 update did not help, my battery still drains just as fast as it did on 5.0. My phone used to last 2 days no problem, now it lasts about 6 hours, I could go to bed at 5% and wake up with 3%, now if I got to bed with 25% it's dead by morning. I have all iCloud services turned off, only Maps turned on for location services, notifications for Phone, Messages, Reminders, Calendar, CNBC RT and Words Free. I have 2 email accounts, one is a pop3 and the other Exchange, both are set to pull every hour and preview is turned off. Is the issue with notifications? the only thing that has changed from 4 to 5 is I have notifications turned on and my reminders & tasks are synced with Exchange. I'm starting to think the issue is with notifications, I tried to turn off email notifications for the lock screen but they still show up.
Are we getting another update after 5.0.1 soon for the continued battery drain issue?
Email notifications continue to display for locked screen even though the option says Off, is there something else I'm missing?

Do we really need another thread, with over 7,000 posts already on other threads?

After Updating the iOS 7.04 on my iPhone 4s drain battery quickly on standby mode & also doesn't respond volume up button, why?

After Updating the iOS 7.04 on my iPhone 4S drain battery quickly even on standby mode & also doesn't respond volume up button, why?

My battery problem woes continues to persist. Yesterday, I had about 85-90% battery life in the morning. A couple hours later when I looked at the phone it was down to 65%. At that point, I shut off wi-fi, bluetooth, and background app refresh. I received one call shortly after that. The call lasted about two minutes. My battery was now down to 40%. Another hour later, down to 16%! Here's the kicker: I plugged in the phone to a charger and it jumped to 65% in a matter of minutes. I unplugged the phone and within a couple of hours it was back down to around 30%. I plugged it in again and within 10 minutes it was up to 75%.
At first glance it looks very much like a hardware issue. However, I never had this problem until I upgraded to 7.0.4. Also, the above battery roller coaster ride isn't a constant. That is, it seems that only sometimes this happens. So...I'm thinking it's either an app running in the background eating up juice (though I have Background App Referesh turned off) or the iOS is buggy.

IPhone 4S battery drain! after update is even worse, iPhone 4S battery drain! after update is even worse

iPhone 4S battery drain! after update is even worse, iPhone 4S battery drain! after update is even worse

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).

Have ALL these steps been tried?

Heating Up & Draining battery fast on iPhone 5s after iOS 7.1 update

Hi,
I updated my iPhone 5s 64GB to iOS 7.1 & it's heating up and draining battery so fast not to mention when I charge it , it takes longer time to charge!
I didn't have this issue before on the previous version. I tried restoring my iPhone two times & also rebooting my iPhone five times, but nothing works!
I've looked in other complaints and some of them suggested to switch off background app refresh and locations!
I didn't have this issue before and I won't turn them off because if the problem because of it then I should experience the same problem on the previous version and why would I turn it off? So what's the purpose of the phone?
My wife, my sister, my brother & my mom they got an iPhone 5 and they don't experience this problem except me!
My iPad Air and my wife iPad Mini 2( Retina Display) and there is no problem with the iOS 7.1 .
I've looked in other websites and found that there are other people experiencing the same problem. Apple should fix this problem ASAP!
Is there anyone experiencing the same problem and what did he/she do to fix it incase he/she fixed it !

I don't have any issues with my 5S on 7.1
Have you actually taken your phone to the Apple store and have them look at it?
Even if you don't want to turn off background app refresh, you should turn it off and see what the results are.
also you said you restored twice, did you restore as NEW?

Drained battery with iPhone 3G 3.0 upgrade

I loaded the new 3.0 software a few days ago with no problems. Today I found that my "turned off/ idle" phone in my pocket had gone to the new Apple recorder program and has been recording for 58 minutes by the time I discovered it. So unknown if this will be a source of battery drain by a program starting on its own (buggy?).

mine lasts a lot.
this is pretty much the daily use of my iPhone3G using 3.0 for a week.
i work from 7am to 4PM, one hour break time in that timeline , its on standby for 8 hours , on break time i pretty much make heavy use of Youtube , Safari and Mail among other Apps like IM+ and sometimes some games, after my work day i still have almost 50% of battery left.
my settings
Push is set to manual
Notifications are On and have 4 apps on it
the internet connection is always 3G
so my guess is that you guys do heavy use of your phones all day or maybe you guys are leaving the Safari , Mail and IPod apps running in the background.
test this and see if your battery lasts longer.
after every use of Safari , Mail or IPod before putting your Phone into standby do this, open safari, then press and hold the top button until you see the slide to power off option, release that button and now hold down home button (square) , after 6 seconds it will return to the home screen and Safari will be closed now ,do the same for Mail and IPod, open mail press top button until off slide , hold home for 6 seconds , then open Mail , hold top button until off slide then home for 6 seconds, now apps that don't shutdown like Safari , Mail and IPod will shutdown and the phone will use less battery while on standby. if you open them again they will again remain open and drain battery.
there was a function on 3.0 when it got announced that it would close every app to save battery, people complained about it, apple listened and removed that function. now only Safari ,Mail and IPod apps stay processing and wasting battery in the background.

IOS 8 SEVERELY draining battery on iPhone 5

Is there any way to fix it??
My Home/Lock screen racks up 47% of my battery usage since updating, while the background/app refresh, location services, and other features that drained battery in iOS 7 are turned off.
My battery has gone down by 5% within just 10 minutes of my phone sitting there, having absolutely nothing done to it.
Whenever I click the home button after about a minute or so, it goes down by a percent (sometimes two).
So my phone isn't even going to last me an hour of usage after this "upgrade"?

As much as I love getting a new gadget, I respect our environment more. So I'm holding on to my iPhone 5, 16GB because it's worked so well for the last 2 years and is still going strong. I charge it every night and at the end of the day I usually have 20% battery left. But that was before the iOS 8.0.2 update...
Now my phone lasts 4 hours and over heats. It died 3 times yesterday with normal use. The only variable is iOS 8.0.2
I looked up forums and found "tips" that are more like work-arounds. I tried resetting all settings which didn't work. All it did was give me annoying settings like 2 reminders for one SMS, location services off, and I lost my favourite lock screen photo of my two children (even though it said "no data or media will be lost" ).
I checked the settings for apps that are using most battery. Phone and lock screen are the top two. Lock screen?? Seriously??
I remembered that when I use GPS apps (ie. TomTom or Google Maps), the phone (just feels like any other "phone" now without the "i") would heat up in the same way it does now. So I snooped and found a little switch hidden deep, deep down in Settings > Privacy > Location Services > System Services (scrolled down to the very, very bottom) and there was a switch for Status Bar Icon. I turned this ON and paid attention. It would turn on by itself on the lock screen. I thought that maybe Siri is using it? So I went into Settings > Privacy > Location Services and turned Siri's location access OFF.
The phone cooled down almost instantly. I'm charging it now and will update below on how I go, if anyone's interested...
Let me know how you go with this?

Google Earth draining battery??

I have had amazing battery life with the IP4 until I downloaded google earth.
The most it would drain prior to google earth was from 100% in the am to 75% at the lowest by 7:00pm after a full days use.
After the install it dropped to 35% by 7:00pm. That was with the app running in the background.
Last night I stopped it from running in background and today it's back to normal.
Anyone else experience this?

I've also noticed certain apps (e.g. Google Earth, GPS Drive) draining battery charge noticeably when left running in the background. And I've been obsessive about "closing" all the background apps whenever possible, leaving behind only those which I know I need for multitasking. As much as I love multitasking with my iP4, since each and every app once started stays around until intensionally removed, it is becoming an issue for me. Perhaps other folks may have a word of wisdom on this topic.
