IPhone 4 Shuts Off repeatedly and battery drains after ios7 update

This morning at 5:20 am, my alarm went off on my iphone like normal, I plugged my 100% battery charged iphone out of its charger and within 30 seconds it turned off. I quickly plugged it back in the charger and it dropped to 41%. Then as I had to start my morning and get to work and take the phone again out of its charger, it died again. So I got to work, and I have put my phone to "charge" while plugged to the charger, but as time passes, instead of charging my battery it looses life, then I recieved a notification to update my phone, which I did however this did not help my phone, it still continues to turn off once I plug the phone out of the charger.

Same here. My ipad mini used to last weeks, now I can barely get a full day out of it, after I finally updated to ios7. And yes I disabled every possible battery drainer I could find and rebooted. This is clearly to me a bug for the mini, possibly their code that drains batteries on older devices to force people to buy new hardware is running faster than it used to when it would only kill your battery twice as fast, perhaps something else I would hope, but I'm about to hack my device and return to ios 6 as this is absurd. I can put my ipad down for a few hours and pick it up with a 5% drain or overnight with a 70% drain.

I just got my apple iphone 5s and the battery drains after a hour or so wether im on the phone or not how can i change this

please help battery draining sofast I just got the phone month ago

If you have Bluetooth turned on, turn it off. If I forget and leave Bluetooth on, it drains my battery about twice as fast as when it is off.
Turn off Background App Refresh in Settings>General
Turn off any location services that you do not need on under Settings>Privacy>Location Services (I have Location Services turned on, but in the Apps list below the button, I have very few turned on - Compass, Maps, Google Earth, Google Maps, Siri, Starbucks, and Weather).

Battery drain after lion update

Anyone having problems with there battery draining faster after updating to lion

Here's what I posted for other forum troopers: please note ***** comment at end
Ok here are my recommendations for your consideration:
Goto the “apple “on your top menu bar. Click 1stoption (About this Mac) a small screen will appear
and click on “More Info...which will take to a large another smallscreen with Mac Book Pro in huge
l letters like this: MacBookPro.
Next gothe “Systems Report” button: press.
Next Under“Hardware” on the left you'll see “Power” click that.
                  Volia the battery info:
Now lets do a bit of an analysis of the info: here's mine a 2 mo. old 17” MBP:
ModelInformation:
SerialNumber:     ****************** (not shown by me)
Manufacturer:     DP
DeviceName:     ******************(not shown by me)
PackLot Code:     0
PCBLot Code:     0
FirmwareVersion:     406
HardwareRevision:     1
CellRevision:     1102
ChargeInformation:
ChargeRemaining (mAh):     7806
FullyCharged:     No
Charging:     Yes
FullCharge Capacity (mAh):     8488
HealthInformation:
CycleCount:     17
Condition:     Normal
BatteryInstalled:     Yes
Amperage(mA):     2131
Voltage(mV):     12534
OK under“Charge Information” you see my MBP currently at 7806mAh (mstands Milli
which is 10 tothe -3 power) which translates to 7.806 Amp hours in non-techiespeak. As you see on mine Full Charge Capacity is 8.488 Amp hours.
Ok under healthyou see my cycle count is 17. Your very low cycle count reflects that you are not “conditioning” your battery by runningit on battery till 5 minute warning or going to sleep and then fullyrecharging it! You've had it ~18 mo.
And your dooming yourbattery to a short life. Condition your battery for a long life.
Please notethis is a super battery 2.131 Amps @ 12.534Volts which
***** Apple says battery charge will last approximately 7 hours. Real world experience is significantly less with Lion OS installed. I get around 4.5 hours.

Heavy battery drain after OS Update 10.3.1.1779

couple of days ago my phone (Z10) upgraded to new software version 10.3.1.1779. Now the battery barely lasts four to five hours. Usually not more than four. Is this a f****ng joke, Blackberry?!
I checked and I constantly have PIM services at 30-40 %, which is the main battery drainer. Following the suggestions on some of the forums I tried deleting accounts and found one that - being deleted - solves the problem. However, when I add it again it drains the battery again. The point is that i MUST have it on. this is mail only, no calendars, contacts. When I add it I left the phone overnight to download all it needed, 12 hours later PIM services still run at 30-40% all the time.
Reloading the software does not help either.
pls help, I am running out the ideas... I can't keep my phone connected to charger at all times...

After any OS upgrade on a BB10 device, it will take 48-72 hours for the device data syncing of email, contacts, social apps, etc., to complete and finish. High data transfer after an upgrade cause high processor use, which in turn causes high battery usage. Likewise, high processor use will cause some lag and initial slowness. Ignore and and be patient. It can take the 48 hours for all contacts to sync back to the device. And, the battery will recover after a few days. Just don't drain your battery to 10% or less each time, top off the charge. You'll notice a difference after a couple days. Additionally, look at your Device Manager and in the top pull down menu tap LAST 24 HOURSTap the Battery tab at bottom. What are the top 3-4 processes draining the battery?Tap the CPU tab, what are the top 3-4 processes using the CPU?

Lumia 820 battery drain after "Black" update

Hi all,
Yesterday I finally received the black update on my NL820. After applying the update successfully I charged the phone to %100. Before I went to bed I had:
Battery at %94
Wifi - Off
Data services - Off
Location services - Off
Bluetooth - Off
Battery Saver - On
This morning I wake up and it is unusually bright outside - the phone powered off, the alarm didn't go off and I overslept for work. I haven't touched any other settings after the update. Everything is the way I used it before. What is it that could drain a battery in the space of 8 hours from almost full to power off? I've had this happen on the same phone twice prior to the upgrade as well but then I thought I've forgot data services on or something. This time I'm sure everything was off.
Please advise.
Martin

I have been using Lumia 820 since 1 year and have never faced any issues. But after the recent "black" update... my mobile battery drains out within few hours after i charge it 100%. I have to charge it 3-4 times in a day ..
1. I dont have any GPRS connection.
2. I use wifi at home (only evenings). The rest of the day.. I use it only for calls and texts.
3. I have tried hard reset, but that dint help.
4. After hard reset, I dint update my mobile software.
I charge it till 11pm and when I wake up at 5 am .. I see the mobile is switched off and I cant depend on the alarm to wake me up . That makes me so nervous.
Please bring out some solution to this problem. It is so irritating to charge the mobile for so many times in day.

Hello, skypeisawfull-,
Thanks for submitting feedback about the battery life of Skype for Android. The developers of the app are making great strides to improve the functionality and other aspects, including battery life, so that it runs better for its users!
Skype, by nature, does use more battery than many other apps. It should be understood that it has to constantly contact Skype's servers in order to receive incoming call, chat and contact data. You can reduce the amount of battery usage by closing some other apps that you do not use, reducing screen use time, ensuring that you are in areas with good reception (because cell standby greatly reduces battery) and rebooting the phone after a day or two can make a difference in your battery life.
Remember that the development team has surely made it a priority to make the app consume less battery and kill off the bugs that cause that. They probably have more in store, so just you wait and see! Things could be looking good! With you posting this, they'll take notice and probably work to reduce that 26% usage to something lower in later updates!
Thanks for the feedback - keep 'em coming!

Battery drain after win10 update

Hi everybody! Recently updated to win10. No major issues so far. My only problem is the battery drainage. According to specifications, my laptop has a 6 hour work time when unplugged. Ever since I updated, my work time has diminished to 3hrs max. I had no problems woth my battery so far, that's why I believe that it has something to do with either Windows or drivers. I have installed all updates from HP support assistant. I have also tampered with the power saving setting with no success. Any suggestions? Thank you!!!

Thank you!!!Does your battery drain when you sleep the laptop or shut down. There is a major problem with drivers and Windows 10, because my laptop would not sleep or shut down, unless I did a hard shut down my battery would drain very easily.

Fly out tool menus are not working after latest update-help?!

Attempting to click/hold click is not expanding the tool fly out menus in Illustrator after the latest update. I did discover that alt + left click will rotate tools, but I would still like to be able to access the fly out menus. Any help would be appreciated!

So, it sounds like there's a compatibility problem. I didn't realize that Firefox accesses Silverlight in a whole different way. Do you think Firefox needs to be updated/patched to be able to work with the Silverlight plugin again, or does the plugin need to be updated to be compatible with the latest version of Firefox?

First of all, I´m not a IT guy...just a fan of "firefox".
Regarding your question, since this issue started with the 34.0.5
version of "firefox" it´s my opinion that it´s "firefox" the one that
should be updated/patched to work again with "netflix".

MacBook battery drained after small soda spill. Is replacing battery enough

I had my MacBook in my backpack inside my Incase case when the soda I had in my bag spilled. My Incase case was soaked and my laptop got wet as well. If that wasn't bad enough, the side of the MacBook where all the USB ports are was the side that got wet. The laptop still works but only if it's connected to the adapter. I bought a replacement battery, but before I change it, I wanna know if replacing the battery is all that I need to do. Or should I bring it in for an Apple employee to look at?

I hate to be the bearer of bad news but... most likely you will be faced with more serious problems.
If I was you I would immediately remove the battery and unplug it if it's plugged in. Open it up and clean it up thoroughly as soda will dry and cause shorts. Only after you get EVERYTHING cleaned off do you introduce power to access what the damage may be. The likelihood of permanent damage is very high.
Sorry.

Why will MacBook not restart after latest update installed

I have just installed latest osx update on my macbook and now it will not restart. My screen opens with the Apple motif and the spinning wheel but it does not progress, merely keeps spinning. What can I do? Help would be appreciated

The following support article is somewhat outdated. Where it refers to booting from an installation disc, you should boot from your recovery partition (if running Lion) by holding down the key combination command-R at the chime.

Z10 & Basic battery dying after latest update

I would like to know what Blackberry is doing about this problem. I have read it is caused by the android file in the file manager. I have tried deleting this file, and its contents, but am unable. When is this another update going to be released to fix this problem, I have had to recharge my phone every 8 hours, and I am not happy.

The app is part of the OS and cannot be deleted.

MacBook Air 2012 Severe Battery Drains While Sleeping

Hi there,
This isn't any new but I've looked through all posts I could.
I got a refurbished MacBook Air 2012 in July. In the first 2 weeks it worked fine (or I was noticed).
Then I noticed the battery drains fast while the system sleeps.
I have done tests in the past weeks; almost 20% of battery drain after slept a day.
I have tried everything I could: turn off PowerNap, no wake from BT devices, erase and reinstall OS
None of above helped.
I have tried to modify hibernatemode to 25 and it worked ok; 2% of battery dropped after 12 hours.
I took this to Apple in Taiwan and they told me they couldn't do anything about it because they think it's software conflicts which does't really have a solution but wait for OS updates. They did run a diagnostic and everything turns out to be fine.
I just did reinstall the OS again and I'll see whats going on tomorrow morning.
If still not getting better I will just use hibernatemode 25.
Anything recommandation is more than welcome.
Thanks.
My OS version is 10.8.3.

Tried hibernatemode to 25 and still not helpful at all.
Battery drained 8% after 10 hours of sleep while mode 25 should put my macbook air into deep sleep and consume very minimal power.
