My iphone battery randomly started losing battery(3gs)  what should i do?

All of the sudden, my battery on my 3gs started decreasing, what should i do?

I have also experienced the trouble as you have,
With an iPhone 3GS the battery isn't it's best feature but I think this may be the problem:
Since its and older generation of iPhone its external battery only has an X amount of charges before you have to  replace your battery or upgrade,
I'm afraid your battery may need replacing or your apps may be sucking up your battery
TEMPORARY SOLUTIONS:
1. When not in a WiFi zone turn off your WiFi and Location Services, these are one of the main battery suckers.
2. Turn BlueTooth off
3. After you have finished using an app close it via the Multitasking bar
These are just a few solutions!
Hope I helped

  • My iphone screen randomly started flickering

    my iphone screen randomly started flickering

    HI
    I've been having a similar problem. I have an Iphone 4s. I downloaded iOS7.0.3 the other day and a couple of days later I started to notice that the screen started to seem faded with a slight flickering on the dark parts but didn't take much notice UNTIL the whole phone locked.  I couldn't do anything with it except slide up to show the control centre but nothing worked on that screen, and I could also slide down the screen to show the Notification screen but again nothing responded on that screen either- all the buttons worked but I couldn't switch it off (at the time I didn't know the meaning of hard restart - which would have been handy at the time) so had to drain the battery down to 0% to switch it off (isn't it amazing how long 1% lasts!!).  
    When I had charged the phone it came on and the screen responded once again but the screen is more faded and flickers, looking at it is like having a photophobic migraine!
    I have just now restored the phone to factory settings now and it is still the same.
    I have not dropped the phone nor has the phone been near any liquids or anything that would harm it so I know it's not that.
    Can someone help please?

  • I have a 4s runing 6.1.1 every 5minutes it promp me network lost and i have very bad battery issues lit draine so fast what should i do

    What have you figured out? Anything? What you show just shows a pretty quiet system except for firefox having a bunch of tabs open. You've got some page ins and outs so you maybe your'e hitting your HD with swap files more than what you think?
    I think something like coconut battery app or something like it will tell you the charge cycles on the battery. How many do you have?
    Lastly, are you using any extensions like ad blocker, or click to flash?

    Which password?
    If you mean the passcode to your iPhone, here's the solution:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1212
    If you mean the encryption password to your backup on your computer:
    Warning: Make sure it's a password you will remember or write it down for safekeeping. If you encrypt an iPhone backup in iTunes and forget your password, you can't restore from backup and your data will be unrecoverable.
    If you can't remember the password and want to start again, you must perform a full software restore and chooseset up as a new device when iTunes prompts you to select the backup from which to restore.

  • How are you apple.... my iphone on activate iphone .. i forget my email passowrd,,, what should i do?

    how are you apple.... my iphone on activate iphone .. i forget my email passowrd,,, what should i do?

    Did anyone find a fix? My 4s started doing this ( after 1 yr of no issues) ,sadly it went from pink lines to No camera.My screen is frozen on the shutter. Front camera works but not the back one. I have tried all the resets,restores etc and nothing has worked. Was going to try putting a new camera but I suspect this is some software glitch.
    Anyone put in a new camera and have it fix the problem?

  • HT1386 iPhone won't sync with iTunes. It says iTunes can not add songs to iPhone because no songs in iTunes library can be copied to iPhone. Help!!!! What should I do

    iPhone won't sync with iTunes and It says iTunes can not add songs to iPhone because no songs in iTunes library can be copied to iPhone. Help!!!! What should I do. I tried everything!
    I need to add my music to my iPhone from iTunes but its not working!

    First off try and go into your IPhone manually through My Computer and cut photos or anything you can through the device to be able to free space up so that you can continue to do what you want to do with ITunes. This way you will be able to create a backup or do what you have to do to manage your information, photos and texts on your device a little better.

  • I record some information to some slides but the presentation doesn't start from the 1st one but from the one I started the recording. What should I do?

    I record some information to some slides but the presentation doesn't start from the 1st one but from the one I started the recording. What should I do?
    Also, can I use music as backround to some of the slides, not to all of them as I'd like to play videos on the others?

    I have reinstalled the drivers. I watched it install the realtec and cirrus drivers. Hovering the mouse over the speaker icon says 'speakers: HP'. They are actually 'Creative'. 'Properties' indicates 'IDT High Definition CODEC' and 'This device is working correctly'.
    Driver details gives 'c:\Windows\system32\drivers\dmk.sys'.
    There is still no sound, although the little level meter on the control shows a green bar rising and falling.
    Obviously, it thinks it's working, but there's no connection to the speakers. They're not muted, either. I checked that too.
    Any other ideas?
    Thanks.

  • My iPhone 4s has no FaceTime...what should I do?

    My iPhone 4s has no FaceTime...what should I do?

    There's no FaceTime icon and no app since it's built-in.
    All you need is Wi-Fi and a connection to another iPod Touch 4 Gen, iPad 2, iPhone 4 & 4S and Mac
    Go to your contacts and find a friend that also has the Apple devices and Wi-Fi then tap faceTime.

  • I found lost iPhone but it is lock/drained now what should i do?

    Yesterday after a club i found a iphone which is lock and later it off due to no battery.. now what should i do?

    There must be some kind of reception or office at the club so go and just hand it in there and tell them that you found it outside the club.
    Just use a little bit of initiative - how hard can it be?

  • I want to buy iPhone 6 plus, but it will bend what should I do?

    I want to buy iPhone 6 Plus, but i have heard that it will bend in my pocket. Is that real?. If yes, what should I do?

    It's BS started by other phone users, same as the so called beard-gate.
    I have a 6 Plus, and keep it in a case just like the other seven iPhones I've owned.
    Don't put it in your back pocket and sit down.
