My Iphone 5's battery is dying too quickly.

I have an iphone 5 and for the past 3 days the battery has been draining way too quickly even on standby. I did system restore and the problem cured for a few hours. Also the phone has been heating up a lot too lately. First I thought its because its in my case than I left it out in room temperature and the phone heated the same way. It heats most when its connected to its charger which isn't charging the phone to 100%, only 99%. I have sprint and I have not ever been able to send picture messages with the iphone 5. Sprint says everything is fine on their end and Apple says the same. I had an iphone 4s before and that was perfect compared to this and I paid full price for this iphone 5 64GB. I feel like I got a bad phone. Any one else having this problem too?

After waiting a month for my iphone it finally came in  last wednesday and same thing with mine. I don't even go on it that much to save it and the battery percent goes down by the minute.. Is it just my phone or is it a software problem? I have had my iphone 3g for 3 years and my battery lasted throughout the day even on it's last leg. I never had the 4 so i can't compare that to the 5.

  • Why battery is dying too fast after iso5.01 upgrade

    why battery is dying too fast after iso5.01 upgrade,  It is dying on an average of 13% every hour and a half, in sleep mode.  I've tried hard restart and restore in I tunes, no difference!  It got worse after I upgraded to 5.01.  This has to fixed If I dont use the phone it will need a full charge by noon.

    Do a forum search and try some of the suggestions there before starting a whole new thread about battery issues.

  • Reinstall io5? battery is dying very quickly... 4% every 30 minutes

    Does anyone know how to reinstall io5 by downloading again from scratch?
    My battery is dying very quickly... I visited apple in San Antonio and they said that I needed to reinstall because of "springboard" restarting over and over...
    they said it was common problem with upgrade. 
    And they mentioned that I needed to goto:
    Settings
    General
    Reset
    Erase All Content & Settings
    My iphone4 keeps some settings and isn't quite doing what is should.  MY iPhone ISN'T JB and that isn't an option for me.
    Any advise... please text me at (361) 444-2409.
    Thank you Everyone !

    First, please don't put any of your contacts on this thread.
    If you want to reinstall iOS5 and start from Scratch then do this.
    1. Open your itunes.
    2. Connect your iphone to your computer
    3. Once connected, click on your iphone (located on the left window).
    4. Click Restore
    5. It will Restore
    6. Once complete, Set up as new phone.
    *As for number 6, if you set up as new phone, everything in your phone is lost and is pretty much like the way you got it out of the box.

  • EOS rebel T2i battery is dying really quick. Is there a setting that uses the battery?

    I replaced my battery in my 2  year old rebel T2i because the battery started dying a lot sooner.  The new battery didn't last much longer. I have the "Auto Power Off" setting to 30 seconds.  Is there another setting that will keep the battery / camera on or is there some other problem?  OR, is there a way to reboot the system to factory defaults?  Thanks.

    I did a search at images.google.com for "canon t2i menu" and noticed that I can find versions with 2 yellow wrenches as well as 3 yellow wrenches.
    Here's a link to your camera's manual at the Canon site.  
    http://gdlp01.c-wss.com/gds/9/0300004289/02/eosrt2i-eos550d-im3-c-en.pdf
    The instructions are on page 144 -- but it definitely shows that it's the 3rd wrench tab based on that manual.
    This many be related to firmware version.
    The last firmware for that camera is version 1.0.9.  You can find it here:  http://www.usa.canon.com/cusa/support/consumer/eos_slr_camera_systems/eos_digital_slr_cameras/eos_re...
    Updating firmware is fairly easy but they DO want you to have a freshly charged battery (and you said your battery is dying "really quick" -- not sure how long that actually is.  It takes just a few minutes to apply new firmware but it would be bad if the camera died before the update completed.

  • Iphone 4s battery is dying so quickly!!!

    I bought my iphone 4s on Friday Nov 4th but since then the batter is just dying so quickly. I am not using the applications which can drain my battery, did all the recommended changes on the apps but still no luck. Should I return the phone?

    Only you can decide what's best for you.  If you're not happy, return it.  If you think you can wait for a few weeks until the fix is here, then do that.

  • IPod Mini battery dying too quickly

    I got an iPod Mini very recently, on September 14, 2005. I read in the User's Manual that it would take about a month for the battery to go from completely charged to completely drained if I didn't use it at all. Well, I charged my iPod fully on Tuesday or so, and by this morning it was 3/4 drained - after no more than 6 days of not being used!
    Also, the battery seems to die very quickly when I'm playing music on my iPod. It's supposed to have 18 hours of playback, but after about four hours total, it was very close to being drained. I know the battery metre is approximate, but I doubt it's 14 hours off.
    I'm really hoping this isn't normal, because I don't use my iPod that much and I don't want to have to recharge it every week even when it's not being used, or every day when it IS being used.
    So my question is...is this normal? Or should I take the iPod back to where I bought it and get it exchanged? Any other advice?

    This is ridiclous. A lot of people seem to be having the same problems. I mean as it states 18hrs of playback it should be. I have the same problem and dont even use it much. When fully charged I only get about 4-5 hrs playback. I went back to where I got it and they told me to contact Apple as they dont have any more dealings with you as its between aple and the consumer. I have contacted them now. It also has stopped working for me since yesterday. I knew there was half of the battery left so when I went to turn it on, theres no response from it. The screen stays blank. I also plugged it into PC and its not being recognised on my iTunes. Its powerless and Ive tried all their recommendations but to no avail.

  • Zen Xtra 60 GB: battery goes down too quickly, even when inact

    Hello, folks, this is my problem with Zen Xtra 60 GB, which I own for more than a year. A week ago I suddenly noticed that the battery is completely down the other morning, after I played music last night for a few hours on AC. So I plugged it to AC again and - differently from the other people's experiences - it started operating and charging. And I could play the music while charging, and manage the tracks with Nomad Explorer as well. After it charged completely, I unplugged it from AC, played a few more tracks and then shut it down. Next morning battery was down again. So I kept experimenting a few days in a row: charged it completely, played a few tracks, shut it down... and next morning all from the beginning again. I also tried continuous playing on battery, after it was fully charged - the playing time is also decreased.
    I guess, my battery is damaged (or some settings on my player are wrong? - which seems unlikely to me). So how can I get the battery replacement? Or can I use some other type of battery? If so, what should I know when choosing the other battery?
    Many thanks,
    jetlag

    SSR, your advice was helpful - I was able to access rescue mode. Before that, I thought of this operation as of "press C while holding Ctrl..." - I always released play/stop button after sticking the reset button, but still too quickly, and then player started in normal mode. It appears, that one should not release play/stop still for a few seconds - until the rescue menu appears. Maybe it would be good to emphasize this moment (not releasing too quickly play/stop after sticking reset) in Catherina's instructions about accessing rescue mode?
    But this did not solve my problem!
    I charged the battery fully, upgraded the firmware to the latest, and did cleanup. The player rebuilt my library. I played two tracks and turned the player off. After 2 hours, turned it on - battery was drained off again.
    Then I charged the battery again, removed the battery and put aside. After 24 hours reseated battery, turned the player on - the battery proudly showed all three bars! Then played one track and turned the player off, and after 3 hours turned on. The battery remained with one bar only. And after 8 hours, it was, of course, empty...
    So oh, what can I do? My player is more than one year, so out of warranty. And have no idea, who could repair it here in Lithuania, anyway.
    Should I buy Xtra with 30 Gb (cheapest option), and then do harddisc transplantation, to save my 35 Gb of music? (Don't tell me about backups - almost all my music is also on CDs, or on my PC - it just was too long and tedious process, to upload all that to the player, and then rename and organize tracks there...)

  • HT4623 why is my battery life dieing so quickly

    I recently updated my ipad2.   Since then, my battery life dies so quickly.    I can use it once, close it, then open it again and the battery life is down 40%.    I used to get two days of life before the update.   I closed out all the "Location" request, the auto updates to apps, everything I thought was draining the battery life.  Why?

  • My iPhone 4's battery is dying at 73% and I don't understand why. Anyone have any ideas on what I could do?

    I've had my iPhone 4 for 9 months now and it's never given me problems. But now the battery goes to zero even though it's stilled very much charged. So I was hoping maybe someone had some idea if there was something I could do to fix it, or should I just go to apple and get it replaced?

    Did you update to iOS 4.3.5??
    I have battery discharge problems since.

  • Battery Dieing Too Quick?

    I text alot throughout the day, but today, the Usage was just on 42m and I could see the battery icon starting to drop. I just got my phone like a month ago. Is it true that using your phone while its charging shortens the battery lifetime? Are there bettery batteries out there for people who actually like to use their iPhone?

    An iPhone reset does not power the iPhone off.
    An iPhone reset is done by pressing and holding the home button and the sleep/wake or on/off button simultaneously until you see the Apple logo and then release - ignoring the slide to turn off prompt when doing so.
    An iPhone reset is similar to a computer restart vs powering the iPhone or a computer off and on.
    Isn't a reset going to get rid of all the applications and contacts? (those contacts arent on my computer)
    An iPhone reset does not affect any data or settings. An iPhone is designed to sync with a supported application on your computer for contact info. If you don't do so, there is a chance you will lose all contact info on your iPhone one day. iPhone contact info is included with your iPhone's backup, which is created and maintained by iTunes during the sync process - as the very first step during the sync process if any data on your iPhone included with your iPhone's backup has changed since the last sync, which is usually 100% of the time. Other data is included with your iPhone's backup, which is why it isn't a good idea to depend on your iPhone's backup alone for this data.
    How do you get by using your computer without your contact info available on your computer - at least email addresses for your contacts?
    On a PC, Outlook 2003 or 2007 is supported along with the address book used by Outlook Express with XP, or the address book used by Windows Mail with Vista - the name change for Outlook Express with Vista.
    On a Mac, you can sync with the Address Book application, or with Entourage 2004 or later - which is equivalent to Outlook on a Mac.

  • Ipod touch 4 Battery life dying very quickly, not iOS5 problem

    Basically my battery is showing 100% for a 20 second period when i change songs or try to play games it goes down by 5 to 10 percent every 35 seconds once it gets low enough it goes back up to maybe 50 % when i lock it and go back to the music menu it show 80 or 70%...
    And when i want to charge the ipod it shows 6% and my ipod dies and doesn't start it recharges to 100% in about 30 minutes and so on, i know this isn't normal is there a fix for it, i tried playing music until it died but it still charged back to 100% in 30 minutes.. This is really starting to **** me off!
    And i tried restoring it didn''t help!

    Not percentage but i tried to guesstimate cause i see it go low and then higher then lower lower and then high keeps going up and down i used battery doctor pro..

  • In the last few days my battery is dying super quickly and wondering if it has to do with me activating iCloud? Any suggestions?

    I am wondering if it is always trying to sync with my macbook and my iPad if that is part of the problem or what. How much of the backing up would I need to shut off? Thanks.

    first of all i dont recomend backing up your phone on iCloud, it takes up alot of space, i recomend you back up your phone on your computer, and NO icloud does not constantly back up your iphone on the cloud.
    Then make sure you dont have the brightness maxed out, put it on 1/3 of the bar
    make sure Bluetooth is turned off
    when you dont use an application close it, and i mean completely close it (double click the home button, hold your finger on the application and press the red STOP button that will apear on the top-right corner of the application)
    this should improve the battery life.
