Nokia e72 battery draining problem

Ive been having this problem for over 3 months now. It all started one day when I normally charged my phone and when i took it off, it was extremely hot. After that, whenever i fully charge the phone, it would barely stay on for 15 minutes. I do not use it at all, when I do, the battery goes from fully charged to one bar and then battery empty. I have tried everything, changing the battery, changing the chargers, charging from both of the places (mini usb and the small pin). Any suggestions?

If your phone doesn't have the latest Firmware, update it thru' Nokia Suite . Keep the charger connected if and when you do it so that the phone doesn't switch OFF during the process because of the problem in subject. Also keep in mind that the phone will switch OFF and ON on its own during the update so don't worry and do not use or disconnect the phone till the update is over.
If problem remains, you need to get the device checked by a Nokia Care technician for any Harware issues..

  • Does 4.2 fix 4.1s battery drain problem?

    or make it worse?

    Neither. 4.1 does not have a battery drain problem, your iPhone has a battery drain problem. You need to fix the problem at its root. Every version has caused problems for some people, and it isn't a problem in the release, it is a problem with something getting corrupted during the update process. Here's the evidence:

  • How to fix iPhone 5's crapy battery drain problem

    How to fix iPhone 5's crapy battery drain problem

    It's not that bad bro. Just turn LTE off when not needed. Turn notifications, push, spotlight search, wifi, etc off if you don't feel the need of them. The big drain is from LTE so I guess if you turn it off the battery wont drain that fast.

  • Help! My Nokia N8 battery drains to 0% in 8 hours

    Hello everyone,
    First of all, I'd like to state that I have read a lot and please do not advise things like "turn off GPS, bluetooth, etc, etc, etc,". It's not that. There is NOTHING running in my cellphone.
    I charged it completely to 100% (until hearing the bip), that was at 12:00am, went to bed, woke up at 7am and the phone was 20% battery. I tested this during several nights now.
    I bought my phone 2 weeks ago and the battery lasted at least 2 days with me listening to music, playing games, browsing the Internet through my home Wi-Fi, making calls and sending e-mails BUT suddenly this problem started to happen.
    Something to have in mind, I had a Qtek 9100 before this Nokia N8 and had the same exact problem, and I believe this occurs when connecting the cell phone to my laptop or computer, why?, again, because I remember my at that time new Qtek 9100 had a new battery and all of a sudden, when I connected it to my laptop or PC through USB port, its battery started to drain itself (of course I didn't realize it was my laptop or PC fault at that time), but now, with my Nokia N8, the NEW battery drains to 0% too and the only thing I can think of (since I have just bought the cell phone) is the same thing, that I connected the Nokia N8 to my laptop and/or PC through USB.
    It's frustrating to see that you charge your NEW phone to 100% and in less than 8 hours it goes to 0% without doing anything at all, just going to bed with the phone's battery saving feature activated.
    I am positive my laptop or PC has something that interacted with the battery powering and either damaged it or had something stuck in a way the battery is being drained someway.
    By the way, I don't discard my PC or laptop had an application stuck and continuously running in the background that I haven't discovered.
    So, based on what I explained, any ideas on how to fix this?
    Thank you all,
    Max

    If you expecting a solution, well you will not get it, Nokia N8 is not the only phone with this problem, most smartphones are, Ifruite 4, droids, I'm sure Nokia will do something about it in their future FW upgrade, but for now you just have to deal with it and try to manage by tweaking your setting as mentioned in those other threads. I get about 12 hours of battery life out of mine and its not great but hey I don't mind charging it up every now and then. And if I do some heavy usage, probably around 7-8 hours but again, I charge it more than once a day and its not always full charge, mostly just to add some juice to it. Hopefully we see a better battery management in the next FW.
    Once again, I don't really care about the performance of other smartphones.
    I'm only interested in the performance of the N8, more particularly my own.
    None of the Nokia N8s sold until now has reached, or even come close, to the official specs published by Nokia. That needs to be explained by the brand.
    If the numbers are not explained, it is a case of fraudulent publicity and that, is punishable by law!
    Your kidding me right?
    Nokia is a international company that has been huge for decades. I'm PRETTY SURE they know what they are doing. For the LAST time, the length that is advertised for the phone isn't the 100% absolute length of time the phone will last, it will vary between every single user depending on how you use it.
    You CANNOT expect a phone to last as long as you want it to.
    There ARE some minor faults with the Symbian power management that cause this phone to drain more power than it should, but that should be fixed soon.
    My N8 lasts me 3 days easily. and im currently on my 4th.
    If you honestly believe that Nokia is breaking the law, than by all means, on behalf of ALL OF US here in the forums who want a better battery life, sue the pants off them, or try to. But if you can't or don't want to, then stop telling everyone else they are breaking the law.

  • E72- Battery Drain When using Exchange

    When using the Exchange application my battery appears to loose power quickly. At first I had Exchange to be active all the time. I changed it to connect now every four hours but even this setting appears to reduce battery time dramatically. Are there any settings that allow Exchange to connect, download email and disconnect? 
    How are users here handing this to allow use but maintain battery time?

    I do have a battery problem.  I had an e71.  I had push email configured for 5 email accounts.  Mail for exchange, yahoo mail and 3 hotmail accounts.  The battery never lasted less than 2 full days.  With the e72 I get about 4 hours.  It is so frustrating....I called Nokia customer support...their answer was to send it back to be fixed.  I purchased from Amazon, so I asked Amazon for a replacement, it arrived the next day (great service)... but the same battery life problem.  It is clearly software or firmware not a phone defect. 
    Any ideas.
    Thank you

  • Nokia 700 battery drain in AT&T 3.5g mode

    Hi all,
    I have seen a couple of old comments on the battery life of the Nokia 700 and for the past 5 months I have also suffered from this problem however I have done a couple of experiments and wonder if it is just me or is this consistent with others.
    A little history on my experience:
    I purchased the phone in July 2012 (in the USA). The first couple of months the phone was great: battery life was ~4 days with moderate use in 3g mode on AT&T. In September 2012 I went to China and brought my phone along with me and used a prepaid SIM card while I was there and there was no problem with the battery life. When I returned to the US in October 2012, the battery life diminished significantly: full battery drain in less that 12 hours with NO use. Installing nokia battery monitor offered no insight as the entire battery drain is in the "Background" with no further information. Further testing showed that switching to GSM mode would extend the battery life to 5 days (as opposed to the 12 hours in 3g mode).
    Annoyed by this turn of events, I contacted nokia's repair service, sent in my phone, had my phone replaced by a new phone, and found out that the brand new phone also has the same problem! Rather than dealing with the repair service again (the whole process took about 1 month to complete and there was a 2 week period where I was without my mobile), I opted to run my phone in GSM mode to extend the battery life, only switching to 3g when I need fast mobile internet.
    Anyway, in December 2012 I travelled to Malaysia for 2 weeks. Once again I brought my phone along to use a prepaid SIM card. Not much to my surprise, when running the phone in 3g mode in Malaysia with moderate use the phone lasted 4 days on a single charge! Unfortunately, upon returning to the US, the battery life problems resurfaced, leaving me to believe that it the problem has something to do with how the nokia 700 is interfacing with AT&T's service.
    My questions are the following: has anyone had a similar experience to mine? Does anyone know if AT&T did anything to their service that could be causing the battery drain when in 3g mode? If so, does anyone know how to fix this? Finally, is there anything Nokia can do firmware wise to prevent this from happening? I believe this is technically possible because the first few months that I owned this model I had no problems with battery life.
    Thanks for reading my long-winded message.

    This is an issue which is widespread in the cellular industry but which nobody will comment on.
    All customer support in the business is done by either script monkeys in call/email centres, or by near-useless forums such as this one which are packed with people tearing their hair out but on which anybody who really knows anything (i.e. working inside the industry) is banned from participating. Nokia employees read the stuff here quietly.
    I too have noticed there is a GSM / 3G selection in these phones (I have a 700 and an 808), as well as the various configs for "mobile data" (GPRS or 3G or HSPA). It would be interesting to test whether setting the phone to GSM-only (i.e. disabling "3G" in that menu) stops it working for mobile data totally, or forces it to use only GPRS for mobile data. I have just done a quick test (have a poor 3G signal here) and it looks like the latter.
    Different cellular networks are configured differently. For example the 808 is severely affected by the famous 3G bug, massively so in some countries (USA especially though apparently not really on T-Mobile there) but much less so in the UK. I think some networks are set up for a much higher packet rate, or they transmit at a lower power which would force the phone to wind up its own power output a lot more.

  • Battery drain problem - question if auto lock is problem

    Just upgraded from iPad2 to Retina iPad. Went smoothly with cloud backup and download but experiencing sever battery drain. Went to use it 2 days ago after limited use prior evening (taking minutes in Evernote for 2 hr meeting) and had shut off. Restarted and had 2% battery and totally useless. Recharged overnight to 100% but had no demands yesterday. That evening opened up and found I had 21% remaining.
    Did battery problem search at this site, made some adjustments, and recharged to 100% for this AM. Two primary adjustments were stopping Bluetooth and Autolock changed from never (iPad2 setting) to 10 minutes and wondering if the autolock feature is the problem as discussed in the next paragraph. Others I didn't change, gmail set to fetch/manual and Cloud is push. WiFi on and disabling like suggested in some threads would be a royal PITA having to turn it back on every time and counter to the Apple vision of useability. App Store is set to advise of updates. Each of those were like on the iPad2 where had no battery problem, except I didn't activate cloud until just prior to the upgrade. IOS on both machines fully upgraded to IOS 6.01.
    Interesting discovery this AM. While I set the Auto-Lock to 10 minutes last evening, the the iPad Cover lock/unlock is set "ON". It appears that the 10 minute Auto Lock is working, however, the automatic lock/unlock is not which would explain the battery drain when set autolock was set to never. This AM as I opened it, had to manually unlock it as opposed to having the cover unlock it for me. As I close the cover and peek under the edge can still see the iPad  illuminated until the 10 minutes kicks in...then manually unlock it again. The cover I am using is the heavy duty RooCase with magnetic clip and had no problem when using it with the iPad2. (Great case by the way!) Any suggestions? Thanks.

  • Nokia E72 IMAP mail problems

    Cross posted from here: http://discussion.forum.nokia.com/forum/showthread.php?p=680673#post680673
    Yeah, E72 e-mail client needs real work if it wants to be a competitor with iPhone 3GS (two of which I own) and Blackberry.
    So far, I found these problems with it:
    1. The e-mail client should be able to display all IMAP folders. Currently there is no option to do that. This is a major functionality problem. In fact, displaying all folders available on the IMAP server should be the default. Instead, the client offers the folders that don't exist at all - silly choice indeed (for instance, I get a choice to see "Sent Items", which doesn't exist on any of my IMAP servers).
    2. If large number of IMAP folders is selected, e-mail client won't work any more (becomes frozen for lengthy periods of time) and may even corrupt mailbox setup (in my case, it renamed two of my mailboxes to the same name - it just called them Email). Note, it didn't corrupt my mail - it corrupted mailbox setup on the phone. Essentially, mail doesn't work after large number of folders have been subscribed to. The client keeps connecting/disconnecting and eventually gives up.
    3. There is no selection for sent folder. This is a critical feature for any IMAP client. It would be nice if drafts could be selected too, but that's not critical.
    4. IMAP IDLE is not implemented properly. There are a number of selections as to when to poll the IMAP server, but that is not proper push e-mail support. There should be an option for the client to keep the connection open all the time and reopen it if/when it goes down. Currently, it is impossible to have "always on" IMAP IDLE support. Which then means that e-mail delivered to IMAP server will not be picked up by the phone for many minutes.
    5. Email, if configured, should start when the phone is rebooted. As of now, it doesn't, which means that even if one configures polling for e-mail and the phone is rebooted, the mail will not be picked up.
    My Nokia E72 is E72-2, software version 021.024.237.02.
    PS. Can someone smack Nokia Australia support people around the ears for replying with utter nonsense to customers' questions, please? It's annoying when real bugs get reported and people that have no idea what the problem is (let alone the solution) reply with garbage.

    Hi all what a  nice discussion on e 72 issues and I hope Nokia developers also work like users. 
    I have 5 e mail accounts configured g mail,yahoo,hotmail,ovi and my company account which is  gmail apps . Except for gmail nothing seems to work .
    First of all for email to be successful like BB push mail should work automatically . That is whenever one gets connected to net mails should down load as per parameters set . This is not happening .
    Secondly i still do not know why mails do not download on  manual mode also when you go to" send receive now "..I have noticed that mails do come into some of my  accounts when I am  connected to the net and simultaneously mail is being sent . I have tested this more than once in my office . Otherwise push mail does not work . This seems to be  a serious bug .This means push mail is a flop. Further there seems to be some peculiar issue with yahoo mail .This is an issue I have for a long time . I also feel after a while whole thing gets coorupted and perhas this is the reason why e mail system stops working .  
    Thirdly and most annoying thing are  the messages which keep pooping asking for password for different e mail account .Any one else having same issue ? 
    High nokia advises customers as to what they have done and what can be expected out of this system . If nokia mail system fails they will loose lot of ground to BB and apple and they can not survive selling only voice/message phones at exorbitant prices .

    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Hi Antonis,
    I hope the below can answer your questions:
    1- If you are using the Nokia C3-01, then the notification lights is indeed available. You can set it through: Menu>>Settings>>Display>>Notification details>>Set it to Show. At the same time, make sure that the light effects are set to "On". To do so, follow these steps: Menu>>Settings>>Lights>>Lights Effects>>On.
    Once you set up the above on the Nokia C3-01, whenever you miss a call or a message, the notification light in the middle will work. It is actually located on the silver colored bar between the green and red buttons for calls. Also, the Nokia C3-01 has a very good battery life. Therefore, it might actually fit your requirements as it is a touch screen phone with a standard keypad for SMS typers such as yourself.
    2- As for the E52 and the E72, they are actually both great phones and both of them have the notification lights. You can refer to the previous post for steps on how to set them up.  But from personal experience, the light effects on the E52 is actually brighter than any other phone that i have seen. So, since you are also interested in the keyboard of the Nokia E52 for SMS purposes, I think you should go for that one. 
    3- However, as far as Blackberry is concerned, I would recommend you to contact them directly for any details or help on their phone's features.
    In conclusion, if you wish to have a simple "Old Fashioned" but sophisticated phone, I would recommend you to go for the Nokia C3-01. However, if you wish to have a smartphone with all the above features that you require, then the E52 would be a great choice as well. All in all, the decision is in your hand

  • Nokia E72 Memory (RAM) Problem

    Hi everyone,
    I recently installed Opera Mobile 12 in my phone and have been facing RAM problems a lot lately.... After I surf the internet for sometime, i frequently get the messege showing ''Memory Full: Please Close Some Applications and Try Again''... Its not that I faced this in earlier versions of Opera Mobile but it was less frequent and multitasking was easily possible.... Now, other programs (like whatsapp, mobipocket reader, music player etc) cannot be run along with the browser and most of the time I minimize the browser, it exits and often, it exits while i'm still browsing.... Sometimes, when I get the memory full error, my theme disappears and the default theme of my phone loads up instead.... Can I work a way around this problem?? According to my mobile guard, the Opera eats away around 30-35 MB of RAM... When i boot up, I have around 45 MB of RAM available.... Can I increase my free memory so that I can browse, chat and listen to music side by side with none of the processes getting automatically killed?? I've tried workarounds such as the ''KillMe'' app to close unnecessary processes and although it frees some RAM, the problem still persists... Please help...

    so when i'm on business mode  i go to themes > general to select it so it works just fine
    but when i switch the mode to personal then go to the themes menu  it autmatically change my them from black personal to golden business so i reselect black personal again the go back to my business mode > themes menu ( when i click on themes the theme changes to also from my custom theme to original golden business) so i must reselect it again
    so it seems that i have to customize only one theme if itry to customize the other it would corrupt

    (i miss my old firmware actually, but unfortunatlly i can't get it any where
    [ i also asked nokia care to install my older version but they told me it's no longer available  ]
    and i haven't restored any system files that would corrupt the software
    i use the ovi sync just to sync contacts and calendar and notes

  • Nokia 1020 battery drain rates.. mine typical?

    I recently got the 1020.. i've installed a battery app.. at one point, post a MS update that i got through dev channels, had issues with massive battery drain.. around 20 percent per hour.. 
    So i reset the phone to factory defaults, per some threads around here.. also tried running with very few apps.. saw around 3.5 percent per hour after that, at least till i put some apps back on it..
    This is with wifi, bluetooth and lte on.
    My usage throughout the day is minimal.. no videos typically.. just web page hits or email checks or message checks etc.. i turn the phone "off" / standby when not in use typically.. maybe have it on say 45 minutes out of the day without turning it off.. and the rest here and there for email checking.
    A few days in row.. start off with 100% around 9am.. by 515 its at 38-40%.. (the recharge rate varies between 25-40%, depending on which recharger i'm using.. i have usb charge ports for the wall.. some are 1 amp, some 2.. not sure this matters on charging)..
    Right now i checked the phone.. it shows a 6.8 percent discharge rate.. i really havent seen anything below 5 in awhile now.. it can peak at 11-14 when doing a mix of web/videos etc for 15 minutes.
    I do have 2 active tiles and a lot of things pinned.. maybe three swipes worth to get to the bottom if that..
    Can anyone comment on their discharge rates.. does this sound normal.. thinking maybe swapping it at the store if they have them there, before my 30 days runs out.. not sure if nokia warranty goes beyond that or not and i'm guessing no advanced replacement if needed.
    Thanks in advance

    I have a Lumia 920 that is out of warranty, and has been having battery issues for quite a while. I have to add, my phone is developer unlocked. My phone currently dischrages about 20% per hour, or so it says. I restart the phone, and my battery level goes back up, and basic math tells me it is really discharging less than 2% per hour. I have to reset the phone about three or four times a day. Since it is developer unlocked, I wrote an app using the battery API. There are only a few items you can return from the battery API, the ESTIMATED battery % remaining, and the ESTIMATED time remaining. There is also an event that is supposed to fire when the battery % drops 1%. If you don't understand programming, and event is something that happens in code that when it does happen, you can write code to execute when that event happens. So in my app, I can clearly see the battery % drop, the time drop, but the EVENT never fires. I have had battery apps installed, and they mimick the same results I am getting. Also, they never update the battery remaining % or time on live tiles, which tells me the event is not firing in their code either. I have an open discussion in Windows Phone developer forums about this. I just got a 1520, and am going to try and side load the app without developer unlocking the phone to see if the same behavior occurs. Since my phone is out of warranty, I also tried a new battery, but same behavior. I'm pretty sure this is not a hardware issue, but a software issue, at least in my case. When your battery runs down, have you tired rebooting your phone to see if the battery level comes back up?

  • Iphone 3GS 3.1.2 Battery drain problem

    Hi,
    Recently i have purchased Iphone 3gs with software 3.1.2. I'm facing a serious problem of battery drain. Without doing anything, the battery drains so fast. Is there is any way to over come this problem?

    Here's what I do that usually keeps battery life accurate. Drain the battery till it's dead, charge up full and do a hard reset while it's still plugged in and it usually works. If this fixes it just keep killing the battery and charging it full. If it acts up repeat steps above. Mine works almost everytime when it starts acting up. I was just trying things and this worked. Hope this helps

  • Duplicated battery drain problems...need help testing.

    I purchased an 80g classic about two weeks ago. The last 3 mornings I woke to find the battery completely dead. Last night I listened to a song or 2 and then pressed the stop button to turn it off. After reading other post I decided to put my ear to the back of the iPod and sure enough the hard drive was throttling at what sounded like full speed. This got the best of me so I spent about an hour messing around and this is what was noticed.
    When launching music from Cover Flow, the hard drive throttles fast the whole time while music is playing causing the battery to drain in a short time. If you launch your music from albums or by artist you will hear the hard drive throttle for about 6 to 8 seconds then go silent. This is the way it should operate.
    Next problem was the battery draining overnight while turned off. This was found simply by launching again from Cover Flow. Launch an album then turn off after song starts. You will notice that the hard drive continues to run very fast until the battery is completely drained. If you go back into menus before shutting down it will turn off properly. Again this does not occur when launching by albums or artists.
    Cover flow = battery drain and this should have been found buy Apple before releasing to the public. It would be nice if someone from Apple would comment.
    I have version 1.0.2 loaded and can’t go back to test version 1.0.1. What I am trying to figure out is this hardware or software. My guess is software but if I can’t get a good feeling about this soon the iPod is getting returned.
    Can anyone help in testing this out, launch from Cover Flow and put your ear to the back of your iPod…listen for about 15 seconds, does the hard drive continue to turn fast? When turning off in Cover Flow, does the hard drive stay on?
    Please post results and software version, thanks.

    I have a Classic 160. With 1.0.1 I had few issues. I was mostly happy, but nervous about all the issues I read in these postings. Only problems I noticed with 1.0.1 were Cover Flow was a bit slow and high rez photos would not show up in manual mode. (But there's no excuse for that is there?) Syncing and battery life were fine. Then I installed 1.0.2. Cover flow works nice and smooth, but I too woke up to a completely drained battery even though I shut the unit down. With 1.0.1 battery seemed to last forever. Now the hard drive stays on after shutting off unit. I found the only way to turn it off is by rebooting the Classic - holding down menu and centre button. For $399 Canadian dollars I am very very disgusted with Apple. Why should a consumer have to constantly check the internet for discussions and updates? And the biggest joke of all is the Apple website offers NO ADVICE, but lets their consumers do all the problem solving for them. Amazing attitude. What's wrong with being upfront and honest that the new iPods have issues? What about the person who can't surf the web all the time for answers? Their Apple iPod purchase becomes a paperweight. My 2 gig keychain MP3 player worked better than this junk. I wish I never bought the thing. For a company like Apple to let the consumer figure out the issues is just not right. Where is firmware 1.0.3????

  • IPhone 4S battery drain problem with iOS 7.0.4

    I have a had the iPhone 4 for a year and a half...The battery was working just fine with the iOS 6 but when updating to iOS 7..Things got a bit ridiculous, battery drains 4% in 10 minutes without WiFi. With Wifi it drains about 8% in 10 minutes with only one application used which is Safari. I usually turn off the WiFi and shutting all the applications of before putting on Standby to help in battery time efficiency. I reset all my settings as most of the tutorials say. I don't use GPS and closed most of the notification center applications that I don't use. Battery only lasts like 3 or 4 hours of continuous work with WiFi and low brightness..I'm seeking some help from Apple Technical support WHOM I tried to contact but with no answer.
