New s/w update drains the battery

Hi! I just want find out from other blackberry 10 users, if they experienced the fast drainage of the battery since the upgrade? Well my phone won't use the camera flash @ 30% and when it gets to 28% it switches off, it doesn't get to 20% and warn me about battery low, please fix that error on the update... I'm really not enjoying my phone lately
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Remove the battery for 90 minutes and reinsert. This will reset the battery meter. If it still has the same issue do it one more time. If the issue persists after that then replace the battery.

  • Any ideas on how to fix ipad after the new iOS 7 update? My battery will not charge, my ipad is hot to the touch, the iTunes Store won't open, and my messages on Facebook aren't showing up when I chat and pintrest won't pin to my boards.

    If you have all your music on the cmputer then i would connect up my phone uncheck the Sync Music option and apply.
    This should take all the music off your phone .Then you can resync the music back on to it.
    If this doesn't work maybe a restore to factory settings and start from scratch is the way to go

  • What is the normal amount of GB of Other Space for a new 32 GB Ipod touch 5 Generation with iOS 6.1.3? Also, will iOS 7 slow down/drain the battery of my device?

    My Other storage space was at 2.84 GB after i loaded all my music/apps onto a recently purchased 32 GB Ipod touch 5 Generation with iOS 6.1.3.  Resetting the settings and removing the music and apps did not help reduce the Other space.  I restored to a backup and got my Other storage space down to almost 400 MB.  When I started syncing music it grew 500-ish MB.  Each time I sync, the Other grows a bit more.  This is really irritating.
    The official listed available GB on my 32 GB is 28.22 GB (not including Other), so now I am irritated knowing that this Other is taking up my space when I didn't even have 32 GB of free space to begin with. So 28.22 - 2.84GB = 25.38 GB.
    I want to restore to a new device to see if that helps, but do not want to upgrade to i0S7.  Is there any way to do this?
    If I upgrade to i0S 7 I am worried it might slow my ipod or drain the battery faster.  Will it do that?  The ipod is expensive and I dont want it to go downhill and obsolete on me because it can't handle a better operating system. 

    Less than 1 1/5 GB is normal. It does grow with time.

  • I have a hung up app that will not update or delete that drains the battery. How do you fix this?

    I chose to update a app. It says waiting under the apps icon but will not update. I click on it to pause the update but it still drains the battery. I try to delete the app but it won't let me. What can I do?

    Try the power off. Press home button and the on/off button at the same time for a few seconds. Then slide the tab to power off.
    Then press the on/off again after a few seconds. Once it powers on fully, tap and hold on the application to see if it will start wobbling with a x on the corner, if yes, delete it.
    If no, wait for someone else to suggest a better idea.

  • My iPod was updating to iOS 6 and i shut it off during the update because it was taking too long and now my screen in baby blue i've tried to drain the battery but when i plugged it in to charge the blue screen came back on.I dont know what to do

    My iPod was updating to iOS 6 and i shut it off during the update because it was taking too long and now my screen in baby blue i've tried to drain the battery but when i plugged it in to charge the blue screen came back on.I dont know what to do

    Try:
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iPod fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - If still not successful that indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • Should I drain the battery of NEW iPad to 0 before fully charing it or not?

    I am first time New iPad owner and I like to find out if i should complete drain the battery on the new iPad before giving it a full charge or just charge it right out of box for a better battery life in the long run. I think i read it somewhere that I should fully charge a NEW iPad for a better battery life, but I forget if i should drain all the battery (my ipad already has 92% battery life when turned on) on it before charing for the first time or just charing it right away for a full charge.

    If it needs charging then charge it. Don't worry about it. There's nothing specific you need to do.

    I bought a new ipad2 yesterday and charged the battery and then expected to get going with it but the screen only displays an image of a ubs connection with an arrow pointing to a itunes symbol.  I downloaded itunes on a PC and plugged in the ipad to it but nothing changed on the PC or ipad.  very frustrating.  anyone else experience this or have know how or ideas to help me?

    Here is my standard reply, some of which may have no relevance to your situation.  Start with trying different USB ports, even a numbe of times.
    1. Make sure that your device is not hidden (left hand pane). If it just reads device then toggle between SHOW and HIDE.
    2. Try all the other ports on your computer, even a number of times.
    3. Make sure your lead /connections are not faulty.
    4. If you have another computer try plugging your device into it without taking any action, give it a moment, remove it and try it back in your other computer again.
    5. Make sure you have the latest version of iTunes installed.
    6. If using Widows, make sure all Windows Updates are installed.
    7. Failing all that, see here - http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1538 for Windows and http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1591 for Macs
    8. And failing all that put the device into Recovery mode. See here and note the paragraph 'If you restore from a different computer.... ' down near the bottom of the page -

  • Draining the battery  -beneficial or not?

    I hear mixed opinions on whether draining down your battery until the phone dies, then charging it fully is beneficial or not? I know the battery is lithium which they don't have memory, so why would it help. Does anyone truly know for sure?
    The reason I ask is after I updated last night to 3.13, my battery seems to be diminishing quicker than normal.

    APPLE says to drain the battery at least monthly. I would tend to trust Apple.
    I found this.
    "Lithium-ion polymer batteries need to be used for maximum performance. _If you don’t use your device often_, be sure to complete a charge cycle at least once a month."
    You can also recharge a lithium-ion polymer battery whenever convenient, _without the full charge or discharge cycle necessary_ to keep nickel-based batteries at peak performance.
    http://www.apple.com/batteries/
    And this, you may be right.
    "Be sure to go through at least one charge cycle per month (charging the battery to 100% and then completely running it down)."

  • Does 4G drain the battery more than 3G with the iPhone 5?

    Hi im due an upgrade and im thinking about getting 4G, but does it drain the battery more than it does with 3G with the iPhone 5?

    the phone can handle it or else it wouldn't be supported. it can also handle LTE which is even faster than 4G in most cases

  • When streaming is it better to use the wall outlet for source of power or will that eventually drain the battery?

    when streaming is it better to use the wall outlet for source of power or will that eventually drain the battery?

    Best to use wall power to keep the battery from draining.  You can do either of course but will have a limited time on battery.

  • Sleep mode draining the battery (Macbook Pro Retina 13" Late 2013)

    Hi everybody,
    I have the following issue. I have the newest Macbook Pro Retina (late 2013) with 16gigs memory. When I put in is sleep mode then it drains the battery with between 6% and 20% in 8hours. Powernap is turned off, according the logs in Console it only wakes up sometimes for hibernating (it woke up for 3times from 10). So it goes to sleep every time I close the lid, nothing is using the CPU.
    Apple states it has to keep up in sleep mode without fully draining the batteries for 30days, so it should consume only 3,3% per day. We all know it can be more or less but, if you do some math you can easily figure out for example: 8% drain in every 8hours is 24% per day. So I could only keep it in sleep for four days (don't tell me, I should turn it off, that cannot be the solution for this problem).
    If the macbook is turned off there is no draining issue, just in sleep mode...
    By the way, there is no performance issue regarding the batteries I can use it easily from battery for 5-8hours.
    Do you have the same issue like me with this model and/or what are the average rates for draining in sleep mode, could you do me some tests for me (please do not start from 100%, use it a little bit before use put in sleep)?
    Balazs

    I've been trying to work on a fix aswell to this issue. I have had my Macbook Pro Retina for a week now and in sleep mode I was losing between 30% and 50% battery drain.
    To test, I was charging fully before I slept and then I would review in the morning, or when I reached work. One occasion I had 37% remaining after around 12 hours sleep.
    For me, I think I managed to find a fix, that I haven't read up on yet.
    I downloaded Battery Health app through the App store, so I could check what was happening under the lid and also Memory Clean (both free). Before I put my mac to sleep I cleaned the memory, on starting the app it was 9GB remaining, I cleaned the memory three times and reached 13.36GB free.
    I then put the mac to sleep and I have woken it up 12 hours later and I still have 100% battery remaining (95.5% through the "Battery Health" app).
    Hope this helps someone out there it seems to have worked for me.

  • Does leaving the bluetooth on all the time drain the battery?

    Does leaving the bluetooth on all the time drain the battery?

    In my experience, the impact is minimal, especially on something like an iPhone 5S. Mine is on all of the time because I use it all of the time, mostly for my Pebble Smartwatch but also for headsets and speakers.
    Best of luck.
