If you are having battery issues, and you haven't, you should try updating your phone to the latest iOS version (7.1.2).
Try restoring the iPhone like a new device after the update and test the phone as this may be fix the issue.

  • IPhone Battery Drain, 7.1.2, I Have A FIX!

    Hello everyone!  My name is Gabriel Chen and my iPhone has been having trouble with battery draining, and overheating.  I'm here to tell you how to fix it.  This is completely different from the rest of the posts because I've discovered something interesting and new. 
    Background (I'm a little long-winded, sorry. Just skip down to "What-to-Do" if you are pretty sure you've had the same problems as me):
      I got my iPhone 5s when it first came out.  It's battery life was amazing, then the fire nation attacked.  Jokes aside, the battery became worthless about a month ago after I updated to 7.1.2.  I thought the issue was 7.1.2, but now that I fixed it, I don't think it is.  I took my phone into the apple store about a week ago because I was off to college and needed to fix this problem before I left.  They ran diagnostics and found kbd and backboard errors.  They immediately replaced it. I was happy because I had a brand new phone, but the battery issues came back, and this time even worse.  My phone was burning up, even hotter and it even froze sometimes.  I then took it to a store near my college–which was difficult because I have no car here–where they did a reset because that's what they always do.  I sat there and played with the phone to make sure the problem wasn't there.  Turns out it was still there.  I love apple genius bar employees, but not all of them are very knowledgeable about the products and how they work.  I don't blame them because: updates can always cause new problems, it's probably above their pay-grade to memorize what every single error code means, and they don't necessarily have knowledge that lets them troubleshoot any problems that involve hidden processes that their apple-issued easy-button diagnostic test doesn't tell them about.
      I then approached another employee who helped me immensely.  He knew something was wrong, which was awesome because most employees do tend to blow you off, so he decided he'd try to help me fix it.  He had a lot more knowledge about the phone.  This time he found kbd errors again so he replaced it.  After that process, he disappeared into the back of the employee's only part of the store.  I tried playing around with the phone, and it was clear that the problem persisted.  I then went and got help again.  This time, the new person who was helping me went to the back, and I waited around for about an hour and a half not knowing what was going on.  The whole time, I was wondering where the first guy who helped me disappeared to.  For the sake of convenience, the first person who helped me in this paragraph will be Ian, and the second will be Will.  Will eventually came back out, this time bringing Ian along with him.  Turns out Ian had been doing research for me in the back for the last 1.5 hours and found that the problem probably had to do with iCloud.  My phone was draining and overheating due to its attempt to download some sort of data with no success.  So each time it failed, it would retry over and over again.  This explains the overheating and battery drainage.  We deleted some stuff from iCloud and it got a lot better. 
      The next day though, the problem came back.  I was so frustrated so I've been trouble shooting for the past 5 hours.  Eventually, after 4 hours, I tried using different iTunes accounts.  There was no battery drain when I used these.  When I used my original account, there were still problems.  So I tried turning off iCloud on my account.  Still, I had no luck with it.  I eventually tried something else which finally fixed it! My phone now no longer has problems with battery drain and overheating.
    What-to-Do
    1. Go to Settings —> iCloud —> Delete Account
      Don’t worry, as long as you click “keep the stuff” or whatever it says, you won’t lose stuff
    2. See if your batter still drains by leaving it on and watching the battery.  Touch it and see if it’s heating up.  If your battery is draining 1% every 2 minutes, it definitely is still having problems.  It’s your own choice, but even if it does drain, I would follow the next step anyways.  If it doesn’t drain, the issue definitely had to do with iCloud.  Now, log in once again.
    3. Make sure all of the iCloud data that you care about is stored some where other than iCloud.  For example, make sure your Pages files are on your computer.
    4. Go to Settings —> iCloud —> Storage & Backup —> Manage Storage.  Then delete the stuff under Documents and Data.  I REPEAT, DO NOT DELETE WITHOUT FIRST MAKING SURE THE DATA IS ON YOUR COMPUTER IN SOME SHAPE OR FORM 
      Why?  What is probably happening is that there is probably data that is trying to get onto your phone.  This data is failing to do so which is causing an infinite loop of effort and failure which drains your battery and makes your phone work really hard.  Apple should code a fail-safe into this to stop the loop, but they haven’t yet.
    5. You’re done with this part!  For some of you, like me, your phone will stop draining.  If so, you’re done!  For some of you, it will start draining again!  Here’s the part that took me 5 hours to figure out, mostly because I was just frustrated and venting.
    6. If you’re still draining, go to Settings —> iTunes and App Store, and turn off SHOW ALL Music and Videos.  What this feature does is it will display the purchased items that have not been downloaded, but are on your iTunes account, specifically Music and Videos, within the the corresponding apps.  I understand that you probably like this feature and that you’re probably unhappy that I’m telling you to turn it off.  This is a glitch or bug that Apple will probably come to fix if it comes to their attention eventually, so don’t worry.  When they do fix it, you can turn these back on.
      Why? For some reason, the battery drain was being caused either: by the phone failing to fetch data from your iTunes account, pertaining to purchased items such as songs and videos; or by the phone repeatedly fetching the data, instead of just holding it in place.
    So, this fixed my phone completely.  Please rate me up if that’s even possible.  If you’re an Apple dude, I’d love to receive rewards if this was actually useful to you guys (haha, sorry I’m just a little proud of my accomplishment.)  If it doesn’t work, try to trouble shoot and figure it out.  If you would like clarification, feel free to comment or whatever it’s called. If this doesn't fix it, maybe try getting it replaced in an apple store because that might be the issue.

    Thought it had worked but soon found out it had not.
    after further days of trying finally, solved it for me Yesterday.
    turned off notifications when locked, and bingo, wow.
    i have not turned off iCloud but location services are also off.
    best thing to do I found was keep checking your usage, settings, general, usage, and flip down to bottom, if the standby and usage are similar there is a problem, if there is a big difference then all is ok. Just keep turning things off and on until the difference is very apparent.
    something on my phone was keeping the phone alive even when turned off, and I think this was the phone repeatedly trying to update continually.
    to me this is definitely down to the iOS, my wife has exactly same phone and iOS but hers doesn't have any problem and the battery lasts for days.
    the guy at the Genius Bar told me to restore the phone via iTunes, not iCloud. This is because iCloud remembers the exact info from your phone and simply reinstates it when you restore, and this includes the iOS too.
    when I get home from holidays that's what I'll do, or wait for iOS 8 in few weeks. But I'm so pleased I finally made it work, I was beginning to think ditch the phone and buy Samsung.
    anyway anyone out there please try my final solution and let me know if it works for you?

    Do that repeatedly and you soon will have a completely useless battery on your hands.
    Solution - charge it up BEFORE it auto shuts off on you.
    Repeatedly deep cycling a Lithium cell will ruin it much faster than charging it when only partially discharged.

  • Is the Iphone 4S battery really that bad ?

    Hi I'm looking for a new phone and Iphones have always appealed to me. I've heard about how bad the Iphone 4S battery is and even heard some people have to charge it mid day - is this true ?
    Is the battery really that bad ?
    I'm also trying to decide on whether to buy the Iphone 4S now (full price, £500) or wait until the Iphone 5 (if it) comes out ?
    If I don't but an Iphone now I'll probably buy the New Ipad as I feel really restricted on my 1G Ipod Touch and using a laptop feels really clunky
    Thanks in Advance

    You're going to get as many different answers as people who post. Keep in mind that the vast majority of people who post on a technical support forum are people who have problems. It's not exactly an unbiased sample. My battery is fine.

    My first iPhone 5 had a bad battery and they replaced the phone. The new one isn't good either, but I can live with it.

    I'd just like to say that ahs70's post on Dec 1, 2013 at 1:17am on Pg. 9 worked for me as well: https://discussions.apple.com/thread/5338609?start=120&tstart=0
    If your iPhone's battery is acting up you need to determine if it's a software issue or a hardware/battery issue.  To do that, after syncing your iPhone, erase/hard reset all data and settings from your iPhone to what it was from the factory as new.  This can be found in Settings/General/Reset/Erase All Content and Settings.  Then test it out for a day or two.  If it's still acting up then it's likely a hardware issue and you will need to get your battery replaced.  If your warranty is done than check out this link to get a battery kit to replace your iPhone battery yourself:  http://www.ifixit.com/Store/iPhone/iPhone-5-Replacement-Battery/IF118-001#produc tDescription
    If your iPhone is now working properly after hard resetting it than it's most likely a software issue.  This battery issue only started after upgrading to the new iOs7, so it is obviously related to the update not properly installing itself.  What has worked for me and many others is to manually update to iOS 7.0.4 using the full downloaded version of the update which is about 1.32 Gigs.
    But first you need to find out what model of iPhone you have, click here to determine if it's GSM or CDMA: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3939?viewlocale=en_US&locale=en_US
    Then go here and scroll down to download the iOS 7.0.4 complete update for your device:  http://www.downloadios7.org/download-ios-7-0-4-ipsw-file.html
    Then scroll up on the download page and follow the instructions of updating your iPhone manually following the instructions below:  "IPSW with iTunes"
    And your done.
    Problem solved.
    I only posted this because it was a very frustrating problem that no one really seemed to figure out a solution for.
    I hope this helps.

  • After greyd out my wifi my iPhone 4S working so badly battery of my phone gets empty in 20 minutes and it get very slow any 1 help me

    After wifi greyd . My phone battery working too bad it get empty in few seconds and it is in warenti condition it also too slow now

    First thanks for the answer,
    I tried it, but it didn't work. I think that a
    resistor got killed. So is there a way to open the
    Ipod and change the resistor. I think that because
    the IPod becomes very hot while loading, so I thnik
    that a resistor is killed and so another part is
    getting to much power.

  • Iphone 5 Battery efficiency is bad.....What will be the cost of replacing a battery in the apple store..??

    what will be the cost of replacing a battery in the apple store..??

    Apple has a battery replacement program for some devices sold between Dec 12 and Jan 13.
    Check your device if it's eligible for this program or not https://www.apple.com/support/iphone5-battery/other_countries.html
    Besides, go to any App Store and ask them to run ADR test for your device and will see the battery life. If it seems fail or consumed then you should replace the battery. If seems pass, then restore your device if you think battery drains too fast.
    see the pricing Apple - Support - Service Answer Center
    choose the country from list and will see the all info upon service costs

  • If my iPhone battery dies in about 2 hours do i have a bad battery?

    My iPhone has an awful bettery and i have to charge it all the time while Apple workers say they chargers theirs every few days. I have all the extra stuff turned off (wifi, bluetooth, etc...). I want to know can i get that fixed with the waranty?

    If it's in warranty, then yes.

  • IPhone battery drain

    I recently purchased an iPhone 4s when it was running iOS 5.1.1. I eagerly updated to iOS 6 as soon as it was available. I had been seeing slightly less-than-optimal battery life of 5.1.1, but iOS 6 delivered simply terrible battery life. I have scoured through many forums and found nothing that worked. I have even tried restoring as a new phone, but with no results. Before I go ahead and make a Genius Bar appointment, is there anything I can do to fix this? I have reset all settings, turned off bluetooth, turned off push mail and notifications and location for unnecessary things, including system services, disabled Siri, turned down brighness, gone through charge cycles, done hard reboots, and removed unnecessary syncing services. Yet my battery still fails to deliver. Can anyone recommend anything else to try?
    As a reference, I get about 5-6 hours of light usage (checking email, checking news briefly, maybe watching a few YouTube videos) with 10-12 hours of standby on a good day. There have been days where I got up to 8 hours on very restricted usage. On bad days, when I throw in 15-20 minutes of games and more heavy video, I get 4 hours of usage maximum. I got far more than this on my iPod Touch 4G running iOS 5.1.1, so I was rather startled by this performance. If this is normal, and the iPhone battery in general isn't too good, please let me know. However, I have a strong feeling that this is unusual. If no solution presents itself, I will be going to see the Genius Bar.

    I don't really have an answer as such but I suffered from poor battery life after upgrading to ios6. After resetting and restoring a few times it started to last longer.
    However, if you thought the battery drain was bad on 6, wait till you get 6.1!  I took my phone off charge at 6:30 this morning, recharged it at midday and now, at 23:10, it's showing 17%. This is with light web surfing, a doze or so incoming emails and 2 words with friends games going on
    Pretty poor, but par for the course. Every time an iOS update comes out it kills battery life.
    My Daughters is the same. It must effect everybody

    The iPhone has a very smart charger built into the phone. The thing that plugs in to the wall is not a charger; it is just a power source. Likewise, the Lightning cable is not a charger; it is wires plus a digital to analog converter built into the plug. The charger itself is inside the phone, and it will not allow the battery to be overcharged. It stops charging when the battery reaches 1000%. So the best way to manage your battery is to charge it overnight, every night. Whether you think it needs charging or not. That way it will always start the day with a full charge.

  • HT4137 My battery life is bad.....not getting long on full charge. How do I trouble shoot to see if it's a problem with the battery?

    How do I determine if my battery life is bad??

    The quickest way (and really the only way) to charge your iPad is with the included 10W USB Power Adapter. iPad will also charge, although more slowly, when attached to a computer with a high-power USB port (many recent Mac computers) or with an iPhone Power Adapter (5W). When attached to a computer via a standard USB port (most PCs or older Mac computers) iPad will charge very slowly (but iPad indicates not charging). Make sure your computer is on while charging iPad via USB. If iPad is connected to a computer that’s turned off or is in sleep or standby mode, the iPad battery will continue to drain.
    Apple recommends that once a month you let the iPad fully discharge & then recharge to 100%.
    How to Calibrate Your Mac, iPhone, or iPad Battery

    At this link http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/galaxy-tab-android-tablet,3014-11.html , tests show that the iPad 2 battery (25 watt-hours) will charge to 90% in 3 hours 1 minute. It will charge to 100% in 4 hours 2 minutes. The new iPad has a larger capacity battery (42 watt-hours), so using the 10W charger will obviously take longer. If you are using your iPad while charging, it will take even longer. It's best to turn your new iPad OFF and charge over night.

    If you lost sounds for keyboard clicks, games or other apps, email notifications and other notifications, system sounds may have been muted.
    System sounds can be muted and controlled two different ways. The screen lock rotation can be controlled in the same manner as well.
    Settings>General>Use Side Switch to: Mute System sounds. If this option is selected, the switch on the side of the iPad above the volume rocker will mute system sounds.
    If you choose Lock Screen Rotation, then the switch locks the screen. If the screen is locked, you will see a lock icon in the upper right corner next to the battery indicator gauge.
    If you have the side switch set to lock screen rotation then the system sound control is in the control center if you are running iOS 7. Swipe up from the bottom of the screen to get to control center . Tap on the bell icon and system sounds will return.
    If you are running iOS 5 or iOS 6, the system sound control is in the task bar at the bottom. Double tap the home button and swipe all the way to the right in the task bar to get to the speaker icon on the left side. Tap on that and the sounds will return.
    If you have the side switch set to mute system sounds, then the screen lock can be accessed in the same manner as described above.
    This support article from Apple explains how the side switch works.
