My IPhone 5 lose battery quickly

IPhone 5 lose battery quickly

Hello!
Since my iPhone 5 (1+ years old now) almost constantly loses its charge down to 1% within 2-3 hours I seem to have a similar if not the same (very annoying) problem I herewith ask you to tell me where and how to search for solid suggestions of how to lessen the problem it causes in my life! I aquired this (&&&&&) iPhone 5 to be able to make phone calls (not many at all (- 2-5) a day!) short 2-10min max and Text Messages (mostly iMessages!)! these are the main use of my iPhone 5!
According to the Battery usage information the iOS 8.1.3 gives me for the last 7 days is as follows: Messages = 19% , Home an Lock Screen = 14% (?? shall I completely turn my phone off to save these percentages?), Safari = 11%,  Phone = 11%, Calendar = 8%, Mail = 8%, Notes = 2%! Remaining = 1% each, where the most of them i don't understand why these are using that (much!?) Battery Power!
Any Suggestions on how i can minimize this Battery consumption?
Don't forget that i am almost all the time rechararge my iPhone 5 to 100% when not in use (2 -3 sometimes 4 times per day) and i keep it on the plugged in charger from ~ 10pm to 6am EVERY day too! Am i using my iPhone too often? BTW: I also used a $$$Lenmar Meridia Batter case (which I sent to Lenmar to evaluate it about 2 weeks ago)! I have not yet heard anything back from them so it looks like a bigger problem to me!) I am not looking for threads on this topic - I am looking (still) for solutions!
Please let me know where i can find more helpful suggestions! I hope you got some!
Thanks

  • IPhone 5 loses battery quick

    Who else has been losing battery on their new iPhone 5

    Me too. But I think it's iOS 6.0.2. before that, the Battery was great :) (also now but the battery is too fast empty)

  • 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 loses battery while charging?

         In the past week or week and a half, I noticed that my iPhone acutally loses battery while charging. I use my phone as an alarm clock so I plug it in overnight to be fully charged by the morning. I noticed it when I plugged it in one night at about 80%, I woke up and it was 20-30%. This has happened consistently every night since it started, not always to 20% but around 60% or slightly higher. I've tried charging to outlet I used, turning off my wifi overnight, taking the case off at night and closing all of my apps so there is nothing running in the background. I even turn my brightness all the way down. I have no idea what's wrong and nothing is able to fix it. My phone isn't new, it's about three years old (I got it a few months after the 4S came out originally). Is the phone just getting old and needs to be replaced or does it need to be sent back to Apple to be looked at or have the battery replaced?

    Charging the battery means doing work on the battery and does produce heat.  How much heat is the quesion.  Is your iPhone to hot to handle or is it just getting warm?  Warm is normal, and if you feel the charger it will also be warm while charging.
    If the iPhone is too hot to handle, that is not normal and should be checked out by an Apple tech at an Apple store genius bar.

  • My new iPhone 4S loses battery life even when switched off?

    Purchased a new iPhone just last week.
    I drained the battery completely and then full cycle charged it. Disabled Siri, location, apps, notifications etc.
    So far I have been very conservative with my iPhone making phone calls and texts only.
    Just started to notice these past 3 days that i lose 2-3% of battery life even when my iPhone is switched off..
    How is this even possible?
    Any help or advice on how i can solve this problem would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

  • My iPod Loses Battery Quickly For No Reason

    I know you guys never like to reply to anyone's topics, especially the last 10 of mine and I know I don't have any points but can you please help me?
    I've had this ipod classic for 7 months now and reciently when I use it, the battery is fully charged then when I let it sleep after listening to it after it is fully charged, still around 100% just losing a little right?
    But then in the afternoon by the end of school, it goes down and it is sleeping and by the end of school it is almost out of battery. What is causing this to happen and how can I fix it?

    There's actually no way to turn off coverflow, you can just remove the option from the main and music menus.
    You said that you've had your iPod about 7 months, and that it would be too expensive to bring it to an Apple store. The unit is still under warranty, so repairs or replacement should be free - unless, of course the issue is due misuse of the product. I believe defective batteries are covered.
    As SithLordDarth mentioned above, the very first thing you need to do is ensure you are using the latest version of the firmware.

  • HT4528 Battery Life My iphone 5 loses battery life rapidly when used. IE calls, and apps anyone else with this problem? Is the battery bad?

    My I phone battery dies very rapidly whenever phone is in use. It never did this before I am thinking the battery is bad. Does anyone else have or had this problem?
    Thanks,

    It started with the last update. I don't think it is just a battery change out problem since it will sometime run down to 1-3%.

  • Does iphone lose battery when powered/turned off??

    So my lock button at the top of the iphone 4 doesn't work and i used the assistive touch button to lock screen when needed. The reason i didn't go to apple store is that i have past my warranty and didn't buy apple care.
    Anyway, the other day, the iphone shut down unexpectedly at around 40%.
    Now, normally, if it shuts down, it'll only be because of the battery being lower than 4%, and so all i had to do was to it in to power adaptor.
    BUT, because i know that the percentage left is closer to 40%, then i was wondering whether the iphone would lose battery. Because if that happens, i can just wait for a couple of hours before plugging it in....

    All devices use power when in sleep mode.
    Locking the screen does not turn the device off, never has.

  • When in sleep mode iPhone 4 loses signal but when it's back on it searches and finds signal only recently doing this and because it's searching for signal battery not lasting very long please help

    When in sleep mode iPhone 4 loses signal but as soon as its on again it searches and finds signal easily but because of this not getting calls or text msges and because it's searching for signal all the time battery not lasting

    Here are some observations and a suggestion.
    1)  I mentioned before, that the number of views of this discussion forum is fast approaching 100,000.  I suppose relative to all iPhones sold that is not a great percentage, but 100,000 still sounds pretty impressive to me.  Consider also that many people probably have this same Sim problem and are not viewing this discussion forum because thay do not know it exists.  How many people are REALLY experiencing this problem?  Who knows.  But I suspect it is more that 100,000.
    2)  To the best of my knowledge, Apple does not consult these forums as a guide to awareness of product performance.  It may be company policy, but most of the time when I speak to an Apple employee they seem remarkably unaware of the "Top Stories" in the Apple Discussion Forum.  This, despite the fact that my personal experience with customer service at Apple is excellent.  So, as much as we of this discussion forum are confident SOMEONE important at Apple is reading all our posts and taking them to heart...I am not so sure.
    3)  I have been told over and over that the best way to gain Apple's attention regarding a problem is to post a comment on their Feedback Site.  One comment about a problem is pretty worthless.  100,000 comments on the same issue, I'm guessing, will really get their attention.
    4)  Some folks have mentioned a recall to address this problem.  Although such a thing is always a possibility, I don't see it happening.  Why?  When the brakes on a Toyota don't work, or that Toyata starts to accelerate without driver intention...well, that involves human life and the stakes are quite high.  For many reasons you would see the automotive industry eventually be forced into a recall program under such a situation.  But, a phone APPEARS to not nearly be such a life and death device.  Or is it?  My daughter's iPhone 4S developed a "SIM FAILURE" on the same day her car broke down in the middle of the very rural area we live at around 10:00 pm.  She is 17 years old and was coming home from high school play practice.  You can imagine the anxiety I and her mother felt when she did not arrive home on time.  She eventually walked about a quarter mile to a house of a stranger and had to ask to use their phone to call us.  Now, I am not saying that strangers where I live are not to be trusted.  But, in addition to being worried out of my mind, I was not happy that an inoperative iPhone 4S caused my daughter to be put in this situation.  My biggest concern now is...when will my daughter's iPhone become inoperative again due to SIM FAILURE?
    5)  The more folks in this discussion forum who post a comment about this issue in Apple's feedback site the more pressing this issue is going to be perceived by Apple.  So, I like others, encourage all of you to do so.  If this seems like a lot of effort, I offer you these few sentences below that you could just copy and paste into the feedback site.
    The link to feedback site is:  http://www.apple.com/feedback/
    Feel free to use copy/amend/whatever the following as you wish:
    Dear Apple,
    I wish to register a strong concern about my iPhone's unpredictable inoperability due to failures somehow associated with it's SIM technology.  For me, I do not consider this just a significant lack of convenience, but a significant safety issue.  Should I need my phone in an emergency situation where it is experiencing  a SIM FAILURE, I believe the iPhone will have put me at risk.  I would ask you to please give fixing this problem your greatest priority and effort.
    Sincerely, XXXX

  • IPAD 2 loses battery Power Quickly

    Problem 1:  Within the last few weeks, my Ipad 2 loses battery power even when its powered down I've tried both closing the cover and using the main swithch  on the top right.  In all cases, I can start out at 100% and within a couple of hours be down to 85% after using it once and either closing the cover or pushing the switch.  Its as if something is still running.  I looked at the processes with all my apps off and didn't see any surprises .  I have processes 9424 dataccessd, 9412 ptpd, 6581 AdSheet~ipad, and 1340 iapd as well as a dozen or so process with numbers in the double digits from 49 on down.  It took me 9 hours last night to bring my pad from 20% to 100%.
    Problem 2: I recently rented a movie from Itunes and tried to play it through my HDMI interface on my TV using the appropriate apple interface cords.  It started to play then I got a message that told me that the device I was trying to play the movie on wasn't authorized for protected media even though I had no trouble playing it on my ipad.?????What's with that?

    There is no "4S software".
    All iPhones run iOS.
    There are dozens of versions of iOS.  Which version is your device on?

  • Iphone 4s is loosing battery quickly.

    My Iphone is loosing battery really quickly and its bothering me heaps. Ten minutes online or on youtube and its gone down 15% or more somtimes. If i took it to apple would they replace it?

    They're going to have you restore your iPhone and set it up as new and keep everything off of it for 24 hours to see if its a software issue before they replace it.
    Go ahead and backup and do that first before you take it to the Apple Store to be sure they don't send you away to do something simple and make you come back
