Re: hp probook 430 g1 battery drain after shutdown
Hello,
I'm from Singapore. I got the HP Probook 430G1 somewhere mid 2014.

Heavy Battery Drain after updating to 8.1 Lumia Cy...
After updating my Lumia 1520 to 8.1 Cyan update, the battery drain is very high. The battery is lasting only for 6 to 7 hours when the data traffic is on (under mixed use of 2G and 3G modes). I have noticed few other users were also experiencing heavy battery drain after the Cyan update.
Will there be an update to fix this battery drain issue?
When the phone was in WP 8 Lumia Black update, battery backup was around 24-30 hrs (when data traffic was on).
What will be the workaround for this?

Go to Solution.Yep, my 1520 battery drains like a helicopter that's lost it's rotor after this 8.1 update.
I was just boasting last weekend how awesome the battery life was on this phone, I drove 300mi with the GPS w/navigation, did some tethering to my laptop for work, went overnight..no charging, used lightly all the next day, few pictures, email, browsing, phone calls, and drove 300mi back on GPS/navigation and I still had 38% battery left.
I updated to 8.1 sunday night, and on my normal commute to a customer in another state, which under 8.0 would have drained oh...mabey 4-5%, I was at 62% by the time I got to this customer yesteday.
All I did was make a phone call, that's it. All background stuff is not allowed. location off, cortana off, ...still drains.
Bad bad bad news. I'm not seeing much usefull ness out of 8.1, and considering the battery life and no real new features....just gimmicks if you ask me, I'm not sure I want to stay at 8.1 . I'm trying to give it a chance...battery life is still better than my POS samsung androids I've had in the past, but knowing how good it really can be...and no real features in 8.1 (I was hopeing they'd fix the imap email not allowed to map sent/trash/inbox issue)....eshh...what a mess it seems. -
Enormous battery drain after 3.01 upgrade
guys and gals,
anyone of you experiencing a huge spike in battery drain after upgrading to firmware 3.01? On 3.0 my iphone 3gs had no probs but after my upgrade last night he ran out of juice within a few hours while I was sleeping. This morning I recharged it but an hour later the phone is allready down to 80% and feeling warm. I guess there is something running in the background but I cant figure out what. Turning the phone on/off doesnt seem to do a thing. Any ideas or personal experiences?I did what you said in your 2nd post, and recharged the battery. after 6 hours, it was the charge was still at 100%!
then I used an app, IM+ Push for a few minutes and had disabled the Push functionality before quitting it. after an hour, I noticed that the battery issue was back. so deleted the said app, and the battery levels returned to normal.
This evening I re-installed the app, disabled the push functionality again and made sure to set my IM account to off before quitting. the problem hasn't re-occurred since then.
hope that this helps someone else who's having the same issue. -
Battery drain after update to 10.2
i noticed high battery drain after i have updated to 10.2. i charged phone to 100% yesterday at 16:00 and now 17h later it is 61%. - i wrote 4 sms'es, 1 short phone call, and that's all. i tried restart few times, checked out if network settings are same as before, nothing helps.
battery application is estimating discharging speed at level of 1% every 24 min. before at the same usage it was at least 50 mins. i heard 10.2 has better battery efficiency, but not for me. anyone has similar experiences after update?Double check that your Network settings are how you want them as after an upgrade they have a habit of changing.
On my Verizon phone it redefaulted to Global which really burned my battery instead of limiting it to LTE/CDMA, once I changed it back battery life was back (or better) than previously. -
Battery drains after upgraded to ios5
battery drains after upgraded to ios5 my iphone4
With iOS 5.0 battery life was terriable. Apple quickly fixed it with 5.01. Now with 5.1 battery life is back to terrible. I could go at least two days without a charge. After the update (and all my patterns and behaviors being the same), I don't even get a full day! Apple needs to fix this! Or allow us to go back to iOS 5.01.

Massive Battery Drain After Mavericks Upgrade on 11" 2013 MacBook Air?
I got my Air about month before Mavericks came out and the battery life was amazing on it. I was easily getting 14-10 hours of life using Chrome and Air Mail App, along with Power Point and MS Word. After the upgrade to Mavericks, it was slow but I started to notice that my battery life during classes was draining so much faster than before and I had not added anything 3rd party software, just the upgrade. I am now down to about 3.5 - 4.5 hours of battery life doing about the same things as before the upgrade. I did a couple of apps and I added (Sims 3 game). However, I have yet to touch it because of the diminished battery life.
I have included a copy of my Etrecheck, can somone take a look and let me know if you think I need to clean something off?
I did do the SMC reset and that seemed to to give a little juice (like putting new tire on your car but still not where it was before the Mavericks upgrade) as I am up to about 6 hours of battery life after the SMC reset.
Please let me know what other information you might need from me that would help and thank you so much!!

Not sure why but I had a hard time finding all of the related files to get rid of Origin. But I think I finally got them. I just uninstalled Flash and Chrome. I don't like Safari but all well. I suppose I can deal with it it until Apple fixes this battery issue and then maybe I can go back to Chrome. Safari isn't too happy with certain websites, under the Preferences/Security there is an error message that reads "Google Safe Browsing Service Is Not Available. Has not been updated in 8 days."
Haven't noticed a change in battery since doing all of this so let me know if it will take a couple of days to reset. Or if you see anything else that I can do to help. Thank!

Battery drain after updating to iOS 5.1.1
After doing the update to iOS 5.1.1 the phone is getting hot "warm" near the processor and the battery drains about 1% per 10 mins in standby and 10X when running an app. Meaning that the phone will run about 6 hours when it used to run for 48 hours on a charge. When putting the phone in airplane mode battery life appears normal. Following others that have reported this issue, I've done a Reset All Settings and two Erase All Content and Settings then restored from back up. Unfortuately what worked for others has not worked for me...
Took the phone to the Apple store and was told by the genius that there are no issues with the update and that location servers were to blame. Explaining over and over and over again that none of those settings have changed and that the only thing that changed was the update I got no answers, just more frustrated.
Currently I have all location services off and wifi off but still have the same problem.
Looking to either find the magical reset sequence that others have has success with or just roll back the update.
Help.Close all open apps by double-tapping the home button, then swiping up and off the screen with the app window (not the smaller icon).
Reset your device: hold down the home button along with the sleep/wake button until the screen goes black and you see the Apple, then let go. (No data loss) -
IPad 2 battery drain after iOS 5.0.1 update!!!
iPad 2 battery is draining way too fast after the 5.0.1 update - I've lost over 10% just browsing the apple site over wifi for about 10 minutes - with no other apps running. NOT ACCEPTABLE APPLE!!!
Same issue with my iPhone 4 that went from 62% when I went to bed last night to completely dead this morning - unused!!
Apple - roll 5.0 back out to replace this battery leech. I need to be able to actually USE my products.Shirley 123 wrote:
Same issue here! I've been reading on my fully-charged iPad and the battery is down to 78%. Never did this before the latest update. Yesterday, iPad quit before my usual evening reading! Any solutions!
I have personally seen the problem and corrected it on numerous models now including the 4S, 4, 3GS and iPad 2s. Corrupt system level settings created by an iOS 5 bug in the original release that caused battery recalibration issues, etc. Just installing the update does not fix the issue in most cases (sometime it initially can be worse). You need to clear out those settings and recalibate the battery. For those still having the "standby battery drain" issue follow the procedure below in order. It does fix the problem in most cases.
Go through these steps to address the battery after updating to iOS 5.0.1:
1. Reset all settings (settings app-> general-> reset)
2. Go through initial setup steps (lang, wifi, siri, enable location, etc) and choose setup as new phone (don't worry your apps, data, contacts, mail will still be there). At this point, Do NOT restore from iCloud or iTunes (It can copy back corrupt settings)
3. Turn off system location services timezone and iAd
4. Fully discharge battery (tilll it shuts off with the spinning wheel)
5. Fully recharge battery (overnight if possible)
In my experience this improves the Standby battery drain issue significantly in most cases. It reduces drain from 2-4% or more per hr to 0.5% or less. It has worked for many, many users now. If it does not work after a few try's you may have a real battery or hardware issue and should contact Apple. Good Luck!

Up to a point, my wife's original iPhone worked fine. A week ago, it stopped connecting to the AT&T network, and after a call, we found out that someone at a retail store made an error when registering an upgrade to a 3g, and somehow started the process on my wife's account, which killed the sim card. I ran to the local AT&T store and they replaced the sim card for free, and all seemed well.
However, since then, her phone has been suffering from a severe battery drain. I have made sure that wi-fi, bluetooth, and location services are turned off, but it will not last 10 hours in standby mode after a full charge anymore (she makes no calls during the day - just leaves it in her purse on standby). I have tried a full restore of the software/firmware, and she is running the latest 2.02. Is there anyone who can help?Sorry, no, that's not the issue. First, it's a 1st gen iPhone. Second, as I said in the question, I've already turned off every other unnecessary service on the phone. Basically, it's sitting in her purse on standby during the day, just as a phone, and draining from a full charge to nothing in about 9 hours. The problem only started after getting a new AT&T sim card. I'm wondering if anyone else has heard of this problem.

A lot of folks are having "issues" with battery life after the over the air (OTA) update and there has been much speculation as to the cause. My frustrattion level increased with each new post I read that did not reveal a resolution. The back and forth banter about FTC complaints (that was an interesting escape from the battery problem but not very helpful), new apps running from startup (I don't like 'em either), Linux really working better with all these programs running (don't really care as long as the battery level isn't drained after an hour of just sitting on the counter) just made matters worse.
I would like to share with you my experience and hope that it helps some of you who have taken the time to read my post. First, let me say that the cause is not due the the "bloatware" applications that were installed during the OTA update.
Secondly, the primary purpose of my handheld is for voice calls but running close behind is my need for immediate email, contacts and calendar information (which is configured through Exchange Active Sync). If you are not using your phone with Active Sync or updating a remote calendar like Google), you can stop reading this post.
I noticed that the yin/yang (sync) icon at the top of my screen kept popping up more than usual after the update. Looking through the items I have set to sync (Menu -> Settings -> Accounts & Sync), I reviewed all the things I have set and disabled the sync settings for the things I did not want. After disabling the "Backup Assistant", "Google", "News", "Stocks" and "Weather", I thought for sure the issue would be resolved. Not yet. When those adjustments didn't change the frequency of the sync, I decided to look at the Exchange Active Sync and to my surprise, the culprit was revealed - the calendar was stuck in a sync loop (syncing over and over). I disabled the "Sync Calendar" feature and the phone stopped it's maddening attempt to refresh the calendar.
I let the phone cool off and thought that I could get by with manually toggling the option to sync the calendar but I couldn't accept that was the only way this thing would work. I removed the Exchange Active Sync account and created a new one. After the new account was verified, it attempted to sync mail, contacts and calendar but this time, there was a error that occured during the calendar sync. Instead of repeatedly attempting to re-sync, an error message that stated "Client/Server conversion error". At this point, the calendar sync loop was no longer a problem (wasnt' draining the battery) but now my calendar wouldn't sync at all.
To fix it, I cleared the data in the Calendar applications (Menu -> Settings -> Applications -> Manage applications -> All [tab at the top]). Scroll down the list and open each of the Calendar items and click the "Clear Data" button.
(Credit goes to "Brenny" at AndroidForums.com for the post that explains how to clear the Calendar Data)
It seems that adjustments made to events before the update were kept in the phones local storage. After the update, the calendar data in the phone's cache was not matching my remote calendar and appears to have been the cause for my battery drain. After performing these steps, everything is back to normal. Good luck!Super frustrating, I know. Do you use Exchange Active Sync?
If so, you might be having the same issue that I've explained. Since making the adjustments (clearing the data from the Active Sync components like mail, contacts and calendar), my battery life is back to normal.
Try clearing the data (see first post in this thread) and let me know what happens. -
Nokia Lumia 1520 Overheating & Battery Drain after...
Hello,
I've been experiencing an intermintent problem with my Nokia Lumia 1520 (AT&T, 16GB model) where my phone overheats and the battery drains. The problem started after I upgraded to Windows Phone 8.1 and Lumia Cyan. As of now I haven't figured out a good step by step method to reproduce the problem on demand however I have noted that when this problem occurs and I wake the phone and unlock it the Start screen shows a never ending or unusually long "Loading" message and my phone will overheat and drain the battery. So far the only way to mitigate the problem is by shutting it down manually or performing a "soft" reboot of the phone. Afterwards the problem gets resolved and the phone resumes normal operations after rebooting with the phone returning to a normal temperature and battery drain rate that is consistent with the use it is being given.
Given that I don't know anyone else carrying a Lumia 1520 has anyone seen something similar to the problem I am describing on this post with their Lumia 1520 unit after updating to Windows Phone 8.1?
So far the only big resolution step I've taken is to perform a complete phone reset and not recovering the phone from my back ups, effectively making it a "new" phone in terms of settings and software conditions.
My theory for this problem is that it is software driven as an overheated phone and a stuck "Loading" message instead of the Start screen after unlocking the phone indicates that a software process (either OS or separate Application) may be behind the issue.
Thanks for any assistance on this matter!

Did not work unfortunately... But I have resolved my overheating and battery drain issue...
CORTANA is the culprit and needs to be unpinned from the start screen.
Here is the process if CORTANA is piined already..
1) Unpin CORTANA
2) Go to "Settings.. Applications and open Cortana
3) Turn off Cortana
4) Phone will RESET
5) Go to "Settings.. Applications and open Cortana
6) Turn on CORTANA
DO NOT PIN TO START SCREEN
7) Swipe your start screen over to your applications
8) select CORTANA and allow it to set it self up again.
Now CORTANA is still accessible by the Search icon or from your application menu.
Now your battery.. Before the update my battery was reading "1 day, 14+ hours"
After update After recharge I was getting 14 hours then it would start draining.
After taking CORTANA off the start screen my phone stop getting hot near the camera (Upper left) and after 2 days (Battery cycling) my battery has returned back to reading "1 day, 14+ hours"
My assumption - The matter will be resolved with the Lumia Denim update coming later this qtr.
When that arrives my understanding is CORTANA is off BETA in US. Some additional Firmware tweaking, along with the camera updates and more.. Which "SHOULD" resolve this battery drain & over heating with CORTANA
Per my experience, I believe you're right that Cortana is the culprit for the problem described by the original poster. I unpinned Cortana from my start screen 6 days ago, and so far so good. I have not had a recurrence of that problem. I did not turn Cortana off and then back on again though. I just unpinned it, and that seems to have done the trick.
I'm also hopeful the Windows Phone 8.1.1 and Lumia Denim update will fix this since Cortana will be off Beta in the U.S. -
Pandora battery drain after ios 8.1
I've been using Pandora for quite a long time. I usually leave 1 earbud in and stream music all during my work day.
This has historically used 30-50% of my battery during a 9.5 hour shift.
Since IOS 8.1, Pandora has gotten insanely battery hungry. Since 8.1, my battery generally dies around 4p.
After 4.5 hours of streaming today, my battery is at 48%. Typically, it would still be in the 60s-70s at this time.
Usage shows Pandora taking 69% of the battery power, so it's definitely something between IOS 8.1 and the Pandora App.
Note: I did not have this problem on *any* previous version of IOS. 8.0.2 worked just fine.
Has anyone else experienced this issue? The sole change was IOS 8.1, although I do not know if it's the culprit or Pandora.
Thanks for any insight..Same here. Listened to Pandora on iPhone 6 on vacation while driving (up to 8 hours per day) no problem. Battery drain about same as with previous iPhone 5 (can actually listen for 7-8 hours without going below 30%).
Updated to 8.1 on Sunday, phone went from 100% at 7 a.m. to 50% 40 minutes later during my morning commute and when I picked up phone it was extremely hot to the touch.
I guess I don't get the "fix" that Pandora is working on (daddydev). shouldn't Apple be the ones working on the fix to their 8.1 update, not the app developer?
When I contacted Apple support, they seemed unaware of the problem. Maybe we are the only 4 iPhone owners who use Pandora? I don't think so..... -
Rapid battery drain after Mavericks Install
Hey everyone,
I've spent a lot of time reviewing the existing threads and haven't been able to pinpoint a solution to my issue. I upgraded my late 2008 MacBook Aluminum 2.4 GHZ to Mavericks, and noticed considerable battery drain. I made an appointment at the Apple Store to do a clean install of Mavericks, and this seemed to help but as I installed software required to access internet at school (SafeConnect, AnyConnect VPN, Avast) my battery life has gone down again. Also, the battery drains when the computer is supposed to be in sleep mode. I have a new battery on board (127 cycles, my cycle count has increased a lot due to this battery drain issue). Does anyone have an idea of what could be the offending software and provide me potential alternatives?
Some numbers for reference: With Snow Leopard I have 3.5 hrs of battery life, and after my initial clean install I had 3.5 hrs of battery life (so no improvement, but no worse performance either..). Now I am lucky to make 2 hrs with a full charge.

If your school requires you to use Avast you will just have to tolerate its detrimental effects on your Mac's performance and battery life. -
Severe battery drain after last verizon update
After the last update for my phone I have been experiencing around 10% battery drain an hour with moderate to low usage. I have already done 2 factory resets and formatting my SD card. I have disabled GPS, WIFI, Global access, Google now and everything else that i can find that could cause a drain. I have even gone and disabled/uninstalled all apps that I don't use. That didn't fix anything. I started to suspect that my battery was bad. Ordered a new from Samsung and charged it all night on there spare battery charger before using it. It actually seems to be draining even faster, after 45 minutes I was already at 88%. During that period I sent about a dozen texts and checked email and the weather. So I don't believe its the battery. Any suggestions to help resolve this will be greatly appreciated.
likegod04, thank for posting. Are you still having battery issues? If so, then next option will be to replace the device. How long have you had it? Is there any physical or water damaged done to the phone?^SP
