Replaced the Battery in my iPhone 4s but still drains very quick.

My iPhone 4s battery has been draining in about 4-5 hours almost exclusively sitting idle on standby. (No heavy use)
So I purchased a new battery and replaced the old one, but it still drains in about 4-5 hours with very little use.
I read all of the things I could do to help the battery life, I turned off Bluetooth and most location services. I disabled automatic app updates. I lowered the brightness of my screen.
Still seems to die in about the same amount of time.
Does anyone have any other suggestion I could try to help the battery life a little more on an iPhone 4s?
Thanks in advance.

I replaced it myself using instructions on the Internet. I was quite careful and used all the correct tools. The battery was the high capacity 2680 Ah but with same voltage 3.7V. Have since remove it and re-inserted original battery. However the problem of searching is still there. Funny because everything else including wifi works perfectly. SIM card works perfectly in another iphone 4 so it can't be the SIM card. Have tried all the obvious fixes such as re-boot, connecting to iTunes, system settings etc but no luck. Surely if the 3G antenna was broken you would still get a message that no SIM card was inserted but I don't even get that. It's permanently in the searching state. The iphone is not jail broken.

  • HT201210 Just replaced the battery in my iPhone 4S.  Before doing so I backed-up then wiped the phone.  Now when I go to restore it, it gets about 3/4 done and that is when I get an error message, "Code 1." does this mean I fried it??  :-(

    Hey joshuafromisr,
    If you resintall iTunes, it should fix the issue. The following document will go over how to remove iTunes fully and then reinstall. Depending on what version of Windows you're running you'll either follow the directions here:
    Removing and Reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows XP

  • How much to replace the battery in an IPhone 4S ?

  • How do I replace the battery in an iPhone 3 and how much does it cost?

    I have a 2yr old iphone 3 that needs a new battery - how do I sort this out best?

    iPhones are not user servicable.
    Apple does not sale parts.
    Apple will replace the battery for $79US, but frankly, replacing that ancient device would make more financial sense.

  • I replaced the battery in my iPod 3G, but it still won't hold a charge. Can this be fixed?

    My ipod suffered some water damage early this year, leaving the device itself working fine, but making it so that the battery drained itself within a day after each charge, whether it was used or not.
    I therefore assumed the battery was the problem, so I replaced the battery, restored the iPod, and recharged it.  Unfortunately, the problem has continued.  Since the battery got replaced, I imagine the battery itself is fine.  What else could be causing the problem, and how can I get it fixed?

    most likely the mainboard and 30 pin connector took some damage and wont connect properly you just might need to replace the mainboard and everything will be fine. (P.S.you should cheak for other damage aswell)
    hope it works out :3

  • IPhone 5 battery drainage after 6.1.3 update drains very quick

    Does anyone else have any battery issue with there iphone 5? After I updated to 6.1.3 my battery drains like every 1 minute by 2 percent with all my battery saving teqniques. I'm sick of apple doing this with there stupid updates. This battery problem has never been fixed since the first gen iPhone came out and so far the. The new iPhone still has it. I'm guessing they need some components from Samsung to put in the iPhone so they ca. Get this fixed for once and all. C'mon apple release the battery update my battery is dying quick

  • My iphone will not turn on after I replaced the battery

    My iphone will not turn on after I replaced the battery, itunes logo comes up, but it will not connect and does not reset! does anyone know what I can do?

    Who replaced the battery, you, Apple or an Authorized Apple Service Provider? If you did it yourself, then you could have done anything to disable it. It also voids any warranty and post-warranty support from Apple and the forum. You are on your own. If Apple or an Authorized Apple Service Provider replaced it, then take it back and have them check it.
    The iPhone does not have a user replaceable battery, or user serviceable parts. It is meant to only be serviced by Apple, or authorized service providers.

    Make an appointment at the genius bar. Take your credit card. An out of warranty replacement is $229. It's cooked.

  • Why I'm still getting a white screen after Replacing the screen on my iPhone

    i just replaced the screen on my iPhone 4 but after I finished , im getting a white screen all the time

    Did you replace the screen yourself? If so, then opening the device voids any post-warranty support from Apple, and from the forum. You will need to Google for help, since according to Apple, the iPhone does not have any user serviceable parts.

  • IPod Battery Drains Very Quickly - NEW BATTERY 3 TIMES

    Hello all,
    I have a problem with my iPod 5G 60gb video. I've had it for a few years, about a year ago it started losing its battery very quickly. I replaced the battery 2 or 3 times, but this did nothing. I can charge it up fine, but it seems it drains much quicker than normal. The main problem is that it drains even when the iPod is in sleep mode. If I leave it overnight, it will be dead in the morning.
    Has anyone else had this problem? Is it a motherboard problem? I'm sure it's not the battery.
    Thanks.

    I forgot to add:
    I restored the iPod via iTunes once, nothing changed. I turned backlight down all the way, no significant difference. I have no alarm clocks on, and turned off all clocks on the iPod as well.

  • The battery on my iphone 4s is broken, will the apple store be able to replace it for me? will there be a cost? i have had my phone for 2 years. it is a pay as you go

    i think the battery on my iphone 4s is broken, my phone was taking hours to charge and now it wont charge at all, my phone has been dead for the past 3 days. would my local apple store be able to replace it for me? if so will there be a cost? my phone is 2 years old but in good condition. it is pay as you go. at first i thought my charger was broke, so i bought a new one. but it is definetly my phone battery.

    Not at an Apple Store, and if the iPhone is no longer under warranty, there is a cost.

  • My iphone 4s is over 2 years old and I need to replace the battery. How much will this cost at an Apple store?

    I have an iphone 4s that is  over 2 years old. The phone's battery is no longer able to hold a  charge for an acceptable length of time.  Assuming I need to replace the battery, how much will this cost at an Apple store?

    Basically, I'm new to Apple, despite using them before, but I've never actually owned my own.
    Since buying this phone off a colleague at work, I seem to be having problems with it. First, I noticed how rubbish the battery life is, then my charger almost went up in flames and thirdly my camera lense is scratched beyond belief.
    I know the phone isn't within warranty, although I was lead to believe it was before and during buying it, so basically I'm extremely disappointed with the general make up of iPhone's considering they cost such a **** of a lot of money, you'd think they'd be built to last.
    Back to my main point, how much would it cost for a new battery? Or a new camera lense if anyone can help me with that? (I know that the back of the phone was refurbished just before my buying it, so literally just the camera lense)
    Thanks!
    So basically it sounds like you bought an abused used iPhone and somehow that makes the phone subpar because dispite the abuse it should still last forever and look like new? Batteries don't last forever, even under ideal conditions, so your expectatoins are unrealistic. Take it in and have an estimate done.

  • My iphone isn't working at all although i  replaced the battery

    Hello, I have iphone 3gs that doesn't respond for anything, includung electricity and my p.c. I had replaced the battery in a new one and the phone was working for a while, but now it doesn't work again and if my p.c recognizes the phone, the restore can't be accomplished. How can i fix it?

    The iPhone is not user servicable. That includes replacing the battery.
    Since it's been replaced, it's no longer eligible for an out of warranty replacement from Apple.
    Find a competent repair shop or just buy a new phone.
