Why is iOs 8 using so much more battery life on my 5c??
Ever since updating to iOs 8 with the supposed bug fixes, my 5c uses MUCH more battery life and I am NOT on it during the day at work except to make 4 -5 short phone calls!!! I hate it!! Wish I'd never updated. I have decreased screen brightness, turned off notifications for practically everything, and usually only play a little Solitaire and check FB for about 15 - 20 min. each evening. Also, FB isn't working at all since I've updated. I can open it and see old stuff but no new posts to FB. Come on, Apple!! This isn't what we wanted. Believe me, lesson learned. I won't update ever again to a new Os. This is ridiculous. I loved my 5c and it was working fabulously with great battery life!! I only bought my first iPhone 6 months ago and WAS in love with it UNTIL NOW!! Does anyone have any suggestions???
Basic troubleshooting steps clearly outlined in the User Guide are restart, reset, restore from backup, restore as new device.
Have you tried ALL the troubleshooting steps? If you have and you're still having problems, then you'll need to bring your phone into Apple for evaluation and possible exchange.
There is no supported way to downgrade the iOS. -
HT4759 Does I Cloud use more battery life
Does I Cloud use more battery life?
I suspect that if you turn on the backlight to look at the artwork, the backlight uses battery juice. I doubt the physical presence or absence of album art uses any more juice.
BTW, I don't believe the album art uses a "**** of a lot of MB". It probably only adds a few KB to the song file since it is so small. -
i need bigger capacity battery,
flame phone's battery is not enough ( 1800 mAh).
if flame phone have more longer battery life, (3900 mAh)
then it will be selling point.Hi sailfish009,
Thanks for posting your findings. This is very exciting! There must have been a lot of optimization work done on the OS to bring battery usage back to being great. =)
However, please keep in mind that since it's a version under development, this battery usage may not reflect the final product.
Also, there are some applications that can eat up a lot of battery. ConnectA2 is one of them, even though it's one of my favorite applications.
Thanks,

Turn off Wi-Fi, get more battery life
How big of an increase will there be in battery life on the touch if I have the Wi-Fi turned off?
Prof.You will probably get some improvement, although if you aren't using it then it probably won't be spectacular.
Saw some posts here saying you can get 7 hours of battery using Safari/WiFi.
I get about 2 hours surfing the Discussions. -

Getting more battery life with Mighty Mouse
Hi,
is there a way to make the Mighty Mouse read accurately the level of energy left in its batteries?? I have over 20 AA batteries of any kind (rechargeable or not, lithium or not, 1.2v or 1.5v, 2300 mah or else, etc.) and they all read "good-70%" when I test them with a simple battery tester. Still, the Mighty Mouse reads them very low, if not dead. What to do with that??
Thanks.How interesting. I've been relying on the computer reading as valid. I guess I'll have to get a battery tester myself and check it. You might bring the batteries into a nearby Apple Store and show the techs there what's happening. If you do that, post again with whatever you hear. If I can get the same results, I'll bring the mouse and the batteries into an Apple Store and let them figure it out.

Does turning bluetooth off give you a lot more battery life?
for the macbook air 13" 2011 version.
ThanksWiFi is going to be a much larger consumer of battery power. My machine has Bluetooth on constantly (and only about 40% of the time with a peripheral attached). I still routinely get 5+ hours of normal use off a full charge. It's been a while since I ran usability tests but back in '08 I remember doing usability tests (wired v. wireless, etc.) and the difference with Bluetooth was a difference of about 10-15 minutes over 5+ hours of usage.

I have no batter in my iphone 5 since upgrading to ios7. I have talked with verizon techinical support and completed all suggestions to maintain the battery. And by the way, these suggestions are annoying and limit phone use as well as require you to close out each application after use, also turning off wi-fi and blue tooth. I don't need this phone if I can't use the features for which it was purchased! Any ideas? Is there a fix coming soon for the battery? Can I return my iphone for my old droid?
Help!Hi! I don't what's happened for your phone but, you can have more battery life with turning of Wifi, decries brightness, turn off location service and etc. also you shold use less Free+Much Ads apps becuase they use more battery than paid apps normaly.
for more informations about battery normal life see here.
I guess it's not a normal issue. so connect to Apple Care or wait for a better answer...

i downloaded maverick and now i get 2 hours more of battery life,but is there any compromises I'm failing to notice?
Apple designed OS X Mavericks to get more battery life. You can consider yourself lucky, because most users report that battery life has decreased.
There is nothing to worry about. Your battery life is longer and you can use your Mac for more time without plugging it in -
This may not be a 4G issue at all but I've read alot about 4G being the ax murderer of batteries so I thought I would start here:
I'm trying to find any other tips to get more battery life out of my new phone. I went from 24 hours of standby time on a 5 year old blackberry with moderate usage to about 5 hours of battery time on very light usage brand new LG Revolution. Below are my settings:

Hi Bulldog69,
Have you checked if you have Advanced Task Killer downloaded? If so, have you removed it? Was this successful in changing the results for the battery?
If you did not have Advanced Task Killer downloaded, there are applications out there that will tell you what is using your battery. It could be an application that is constantly running, it could be an application that is left running accidentally, etc. I recommend going to the Application Market and doing a search on the word "battery." This may help in determining the cause.
I did check my references and I am not showing that what you describe has been reported as a known issue.
Please post back with any results.
Best regards,
No I do not have any task killers as I heard they can be can cause more problems than they are good. I have checked apps and found nothing causing battery drain and my battery just started getting real bad in the last week without adding any new apps. -
Why does OS7 use more battery on iphone?
Upgraded to OS7 from 6.1.4 which was much better on battery life. Why does OS 7 use so much battery and how can I reinstall OS6?
Its using approx 10% of battery life every hour, when not using the phone and all apps switched off, push notifications off etc - if I was actually using the phone and making calls battery will be dead in no time!dyno wrote:
why?i rip all my cd's in wma,y does wma files use more battery life?
Due to higher compression rate of WMA. The player will need higher processing power to process it thus the higher battery consumption but it should not affect it very much around 0-5% more only. -
I bought the Portege R500-126 brand new @2 weeks ago and with SDD and no DVD/CD, I was expecting, as advertised, up to *8 hours* of battery life
To test, I fully charged the battery that was delivered with the machine, selected 'Power Saver' power plan, pulled the charger cable out and leaved alone for 3 hours later, with no use of laptop whatoever, the battery was almost discharged
I noticed on the Toshiba sales site that they sell a *Li-ION 6 CELL 5800 MAH* battery for 95 + vat, is this the same battery thats shipped with the R500-126 and is anyone else having this issue?Hi
I found this Toshiba product website about Portg R500-126:
http://uk.computers.toshiba-europe.com/cgi-bin/ToshibaCSG/jsp/productPage.do?PRODUCT_ID=145824
But unfortunately there is nothing about the battery life time.
There is only this;
Maximum life: currently no official Windows Vista battery benchmark result available
Fact is that the Vista needs more battery power as other OS (i.e. XP) Vista eats notebook resources and from my knowledge it needs two times more battery power as XP.
Furthermore the run time depends on hardware configuration. Stronger devices waste more battery power as the devices with a lower performance.
However, back to you question;
As far as I know the R500 was equipped with the 6cell PA3612U-1BAS/BRS battery pack.

I know the 3G uses much more battery up when surfing etc ... but does anyone know if it also ***** up more battery life when it is just on standby (but with 3G on)?
OK - as my process of elimination continues, I think I have found the first smoking gun.
So, I still have 3G, WIFI, BT and location assistance disabled. I enabled push mail and 50 minutes later, I found that the phone was warm and the battery had lost about 25% of the total battery capacity.
The data xfer was only 4 or 5 MB, so it was not moving a lot of data around.
So I have deleted my dot Mac or should I say Dot Me account and my Yahoo account, only leaving the Exchange account to see if the situation improves. Sadly, it will be a while before I know, since I have to recharge my phone. It was full at 7am, I turned all the power draining functions of at approx 8am (apple care recommendation). I have not been using it - total call time 8 minutes - Total data xfer 4 MB, no games, not internet. Was at about 50% at 3pm, turned push back on and by 3.50pm it was down to approx 25% and at 5pm needs to be recharged.
I will post what I find out.
Assuming turning of yahoo mail account and Mac account fixed the push problem, I will try switching 3G back on. If it did not, I will switch Exchange push off - if that fixes it, I will switch Yahoo and Mac Push back on to see if it is a push problem, or a MS Exchange Push problem.
Thanks,
Nick
