Why is firmware 6.0.2 draining fast

Why does my brand iPhone 5 just updated to firmware draining very fast only getting 2hrs usage and 4 hours standby. I have APPS even installed only sent three text messages my iPhone 4S lasted about 6-7hours usage and two days standby any fix to this matter already tried DFU restore via iTunes and hard reset still no solution.

Depending on how they are configured, a few features may decrease your iPhone battery life. For example, the frequency with which you retrieve email and the number of email accounts you auto-check can both affect battery life. The tips below apply to an iPhone running iOS 5.0 or later and may help extend your battery life.
Adjust brightness: Dimming the screen is another way to extend battery life. Go to Settings > Brightness & Wallpaper and drag the slider to the left to lower the default screen brightness. In addition, turning on Auto-Brightness allows the screen to adjust its brightness based on current lighting conditions. Go to Settings > Brightness & Wallpaper and set Auto-Brightness to On.
Turn off push mail: If you have a push mail account such as Yahoo! or Microsoft Exchange, turn off push when you don’t need it. Go to Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars > Fetch New Data and set Push to Off. Messages sent to your push email accounts will now be received on your phone based on the global Fetch setting rather than as they arrive.
Fetch new data less frequently: Applications such as Mail can be set to fetch data wirelessly at specific intervals. The more frequently email or other data is fetched, the quicker your battery may drain. To fetch new data manually, from the Home screen choose Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars > Fetch New Data and tap Manually. To increase the fetch interval, go to Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars > Fetch New Data and tap Hourly. Note that this is a global setting and applies to all applications that do not support push services.
Turn off push notifications: Some applications from the App Store use the Apple Push Notification service to alert you of new data. Applications that extensively rely on push notifications (such as instant messaging applications) may impact battery life. To disable push notifications, go to Settings > Notifications and disable notifications for select applications. Note that this does not prevent new data from being received when the application is opened. Also, the Notifications setting will not be visible if you do not have any applications installed that support push notifications.
Minimize use of location services: Applications that actively use location services such as Maps may reduce battery life. To disable location services, go to Settings > Privacy > Location Services or use location services only when needed.
Use Airplane Mode in low- or no-coverage areas: Because your iPhone always tries to maintain a connection with the cellular network, it may use more power in low- or no-coverage areas. Turning on Airplane Mode can increase battery life in these situations; however, you will be unable to make or receive calls. To turn on Airplane Mode, go to Settings and set Airplane Mode to On.
these tips may help extend your battery life hope it helps

  • Iphone 4 battery sometimes drains fast -- problem with Mail app?

    My iphone 4 battery often drains too quickly, and I wonder if it has something to do with my Mail App.
    When my phone is not playing nice, it drains at least 20% overnight while on Standby, and from 100% to 30% in around 6 hours when I use it during the day. I found a fix (http://discussions.apple.com/message.jspa?messageID=11775150) that basically says to wipe your mail account and set it up again.
    This fix works, but only temporarily for me. I find that I have to keep resetting my mail every few days to get back to "normal battery" where it barely drains overnight. I only use one email account (gmail) -- could there be something going on there?
    Oh, and when my battery drains fast, nothing changes when I turn off WiFi, notifications, push, etc. I usually have my mail refresh hourly.
    Has anyone had this experience?

  • IOS 8.1 installed yesterday has spoilt my iPad 2! There are no keyboard, message or app sounds, performance is now sluggish, juddery and strange, battery is draining fast and it no longer security locks when put to sleep.

    I am so cross because iOS 8.1 installed yesterday has ruined my iPad 2! There are now no keyboard, message or app sounds, performance is slow, juddery and strange, the battery is draining fast and the iPad no longer security locks when put to sleep.  I have checked all the settings, done a number of resets and really wish I hadn't bothered and stayed with iOS 7 when it all worked like a dream.  I thought that by waiting until 8.1, teething problems would have been fixed and I am just horrified that there is no going back!  I am not the only iPad owner that has this set of problems so why didn't you warn us Apple!  What are you going to do to help us?  I do not want to be forced into buying a newer version of iPad because you broke this one!

    In spite of the fact that you said you checked the settings, I still believe that you have system sounds muted.
    System sounds can be muted and controlled two different ways. The screen lock rotation can be controlled in the same manner as well.
    Settings>General>Use Side Switch to: Mute System sounds. If this option is selected, the switch on the side of the iPad above the volume rocker will mute system sounds.
    If you choose Lock Screen Rotation, then the switch locks the screen. If the screen is locked, you will see a lock icon in the upper right corner next to the battery indicator gauge.
    If you have the side switch set to lock screen rotation then the system sound control is in the control center if you are running iOS 7. Swipe up from the bottom of the screen to get to control center . Tap on the bell icon and system sounds will return.
    If you have the side switch set to mute system sounds, then the screen lock can be accessed in the same manner as described above.
    This support article from Apple explains how the side switch works.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4085
    AS for your other issues, have you done any other troubleshooting like resetting your iPad, resetting all settings or doing a complete factory reset?

  • Iphone 5s battery drains faster on ios 8.1.2

    Hi,
    Facing problem of battery drains faster after 8.1.2 update. Phone low signals, App store low signals

    PPhone low signal? Are you saying your phone is having issue getting a strong cellular data signal? If so that is why your phone is draining battery at a faster rate.

  • Battery drain faster? wifi+verizon 3g

    Hi,
    I have 32GB wifi+verizon 3g model of ipad 2. First few weeks I turned 3g off and had wifi always on. Usually I could get battery to drop 1 percent by using it for 6 - 9 minutes.
    Recently, I don't know why, it starts to drain faster (4 minutes, 1 percent). I checked the forum, the internet. Some people reported the similar problem. So I tried:
    1. turned everything off: push notification, location service, even wifi....
    2. recalibrate
    3. kill almost all apps in memory for multitasking
    4. turn off PING
    5. restore/reset
    6. update to the latest software
    Nothing above helps.... Of course if I use my ipad 2 in a room with a dim light then it could last longer, but in a normal lighting room, it just drains faster than before!
    Why?? Please let me know anything else I could try. Or should I just go to apple store and get a replacement?

    If a battery is rated for 10 hours (600 minutes), then theoretically, it will lose one percent every 6 minutes.
    If you are losing an average of one percent every 4 minutes and you turned off everything in the list you posted, you may have a problem. If you can, take it to an apple store for testing. You can make an appointment on line at: www.apple.com/retail

  • Ios7 no call decline option when its locked battert drains fast music is not able to controlled through headset unless the music app is open  please fix these bugs

    Ios7 no call decline option when its locked battert drains fast music is not able to controlled through headset unless the music app is open  please fix these bugs

    if they are unable to update all languages in a normal time gap (it is now 6 months ago they released firmware 4.22 for the first product code (actually mine and maybe a few others)), they should not offer those many versions. the huge bug with out of memory in nokia navigator with firmware 3.58 is not fixed yet for those people. really absolutely not acceptable.
    besides that, currently my phone is in a nokia service center, microphone doesnt work anymore (the one who i call just hears a very loud noise). my brother got the same phone, his one is in nokia service center since 2 weeks now, because it doesnt charge anymore as there seems to be a connection broken inside the phone).
    well that will be fun if the phone returns (approximately 4 weeks), as I guess the phones will have new IMEIs as they will send 2 new phones and not fix the problem (would cost them more). but as i got a western europe with nordics-map licence locked to the imei, the next problem will be there after I get a nokia 6110navi with another IMEI back. i get really upset with this really slow support.

  • Lenovo Vibe Z2 Pro lollipop battery drain fast

    Lenovo Vibe Z2 Pro lollipop battery drain fast as hell
    Moderator note: Added text

    You can see what app drains your batter in "Settings -> Power Manager -> Power consumption details". You can analyze that for a bit and adjust your phone accordingly. Factory reset would delete all third party apps that could drain your batter or readjust the phone settings, but you don't need to do that as long as you can find out what apps are draining your battery.

  • 5130 battery drains fast!!HELP...

    my new 5130 xpress music's battery darins fast after 2-3hrs of music playback.Other thing I have noticed is when my battery has been reduced it drains fast even though I am just texting..!
    kindly help me..
    i followed as insturcted that drain it first before charging it for the first time...

    hi krizanand,
    I'm curious about whether you have a Nokia 5130 Xpress Music Phone? But I guess you're not...
    I don't want to make it personal but we are wronged here and that's why it may seem offensive to you.
    But I'm not making that problem up. You can search for it. If you know Turkish, there is a site that people talk about 5130 and also that problem: http://forum.donanimhaber.com/m_27593466/mpage_10/key_/tm.htm 
    First (before I have bought that phone) I thought just like you. I thought that very low time spans must be a result of heavy use of the phone.. But when I bought the phone I have realized it, it is not.
    I give you today's statistics and you can judge from that numbers; TODAY;
    Music Play: for most half an hour (appr. 20 min.)
    Calls: 13 minutes in total
    GPRS: NEVER
    It's not a faulty battery, most of the users have that problem as far as I read...
    And I bought it brand new in a closed box, not a second hand...
    And now battery meter shows appr. 1/3
    At these moments, the phone has been on for 22 hours appr.
    It means that the battery will die out in the middle of the day, tomorrow.
    Am I right?
    I think it is a huge flaw for a NOKIA phone... 
    And I will continue to defend that claim...

  • Iphone 6 battery draining fast

    Jus bought my phone and my phone battery become hot even I only use it for 5 min and the battery draining fast is it my phone battery have a problem?

    Hi Mqchew,
    I'm sorry to hear you are having issues with your new iPhone. If you have a new iPhone 6 that you are concerned may be having heat or battery issues, you may first want to try restoring it to factory condition (if you have loaded any apps or data onto it) and testing it in that default state to see if the issue persists:
    Use iTunes to restore your iOS device to factory settings - Apple Support
    If the issue persists after the factory restore, you may want to take it in to be evaluated and/or serviced. You may find the following page helpful:
    Apple - Support - Service Answer Center
    For more general temp issues, you may also find this article useful:

  • Iphone 4 battery draining fast and yellowish blobs on the screen

    So I got my iphone 4 today. 32GB. Came home charged it full powered down for battery memory and left off for a few minutes like instructed.
    I have not done much with the phone and I am already at 85% within an hour of using it for texting. maybe 30 texts so far. Wifi off, no tethering connection made, Brightness turned to max push every 15 minutes 3G on. For a battery that is 40%n bigger it is really draining fast.
    Now I am noticing yellowish blobs on the right side vertically and a few on the top horizontally. I read in a post that it was because of not cured residue and should go away in a few days. DOES this make sense to you folks. Where does it say that on apples site.
    I am about to call a tech about this and have them send me something in writing.
    This is just frustrating as I was hoping for a great experience this year. From the let down from the white iphone to my battery being drained to now yellow blobs..man can anything else go wrong.
    What say you??????? any of you have battery issues yet

    If my past experience with iPhones and iPods is any indication, you'll find that over the next couple days as you use your iPhone the battery indicator will become more accurate. My habit (as I've done with my new iPhone 4) is to use it until the indicator shows red and then charge it fully and then do that twice more. At that point the indicator should be 'calibrated' with the battery and be more accurate. Yesterday I used my phone for about 5 hours before the battery indicator gave me 20% warning. Today I've used it as I normally would in a day and, as I always did with my G3S, I'm currently home from work with a 40% charge showing. Guess I'll have to play a little Angry Birds tonight
    I've seen nothing official from Apple about the yellow splotches but I read either at Engadget or Gizmodo this morning that a worker experienced with this process claims it is the bonding adhesive which hasn't finished curing. It has been widely reported second hand. Don't know if contacting AppleCare this early in the game will get you anywhere. Since iPhones are in short supply at this time and you have a year's warranty, I'd wait a couple days and see if the report is correct. If the yellow defect goes away it was true.

  • AE CS4 - why such poor RAM preview on my FAST machine?

    Hi all, I just installed After Effects CS4 - I have a smokin fast mchine: quadcore Zeon 3.20 GHz, hyperthreading turned on, nvidia quadrofx 3800 with current driver, 12 GB DDR3 RAM, windows 7 64bit ... can you PLEASE help me troubleshoot a problem:  even on the simplest compositions, a moving picture or a moving piece of type, the RAM preview stutters along, the current time indicator hops along at a choppy pace, images in the frame dont look like they're moving smoothly, and all i get is about 6 seconds of RAM preview ... seems to me that I used to get better performance on a MUCH MUCH  slower machine under windows XP ... i have looked around the forums and seem the advice on multiprocessor options and the like, but nothing I do seems to help ... do any of you have any advice for me to improve my performance???  if you have any questions about my setup or preferences, let me know, I will be on this until I get what I expect out of my (otherwise incredibly fast) machine

    Hi Todd, thanks again for your reply ... FYI, I bought the FX3800 for Avid editing, for which it is the qualified video card, and supports distributed processing in the Avid along with my DX HD hardware BOB - I had hoped it would work well with After Effects, too, but I do understand the Adobe is very transparent about the fact that, as long as your card has OpenGL support, probably best to sink your $$$ into more RAM or faster CPU .. but to stay on topic, I am just  very stunned that I am not getting better playback with my system ... I have the most recent Nvidia drivers ... I have 2 NEC 2490WUXi2 each connected through DVI-D to my video card, each runnign at its native 1920x1200 res, 59 hertz ... the programs I have installed are Adobe CS4 Production Premium, Win7 64bit, MS Office 2007 Enterprise, latest version of Quick Time, Media Player version 11, and NERO 9 ... you dont think that one of these video player apps (like media player or QT) are messing with my screen performance do you?  what about Nero 9, have you heard any compatibility or display problems associated with this app?  would unistalling any of these programs be a troubleshooting technique that you'd attempt?
    Finally, when you say "an issue with a bottleneck of drawing to the screen" what do you mean exactly? 'cause this kinds sounds like a goood description of what I am seeing ... what might be the cause of such a bottleneck, I am willing to try anything ...
    Thanks, sir, for your reply!

    Subject: AE CS4 - why such poor RAM preview on my FAST machine?
    Just one thing to cut down a frequent misconception:
    Your nice graphics card doesn't do much for After Effects performance.In fact, trying to use OpenGL for rendering (including rendering of previews) can cause problems.
    I recommend turning OpenGL rendering off for all but interactions. I.e., choose the http://help.adobe.com/en_US/AfterEffects/9.0/WSAF696587-2D81-42e2-B248-4C5C2B7D3614a.html and turn off http://help.adobe.com/en_US/AfterEffects/9.0/WS3878526689cb91655866c1103a4f2dff7-79e8a.htm l. OpenGL is not compatible with Render Multiple Frames Simultaneously multiprocessing.
    I'm not saying that OpenGL is your problem. Rather, because you mentioned your nice graphics card, I just had to stress that you need to forget about that with regard to After Effects. It's not really relevant.
    It may be that the jerkiness is an issue with a bottleneck of drawing to the screen. (I don't know, but it's possible.)
    Your hard disk being too slow wouldn't be an issue with RAM previews, since the frames are all cached in RAM.

  • IPhone 5s battery drain fast with iOS 8.1.2

    I have iPhone 5s from 1 year. After updating to 8.1.2 battery draining fast. I needs charge the battery 3-4 times a day. I did the restore as new, but no change. Stopping the apps does not help. Please for advice.

    I have also experienced this, but I think I have started to narrow things down. First of all, I am on an iPhone 5S 32gb, and I did NOT have any of these battery issues under 8.1.1, but since upgrading, the battery drains more quickly for sure.
    What I have noticed, however, is that there are some strange correlations going on with what appears to be ridiculously severe battery drain - my phone will show 50% battery, and minutes later (of normal use, taking photos, screen at about 50% brightness, no overt internet or GPS activity) it will suddenly shut down completely. This seems to happen most WHEN IT IS COLD and I am using it outside.
    When I try to turn it back on right after, I get the "plug me in" screen, as one would expect with a dead phone. However, if I wait a few minutes and let the phone warm up a bit, I hold down the power switch and on it comes, and when it comes on, the battery indicator will show 50% battery life again. I think of this as my FALSE BATTERY DRAIN problem, possibly unrelated to the actual battery life. I have only noticed this happening while running the Camera or Safari apps. Looking at my usage doesn't seem to turn up any surprises.
    So Apple... what the heck is going on here? Is this an OS problem, is it an issue with your apps, with app conflicts... what is going on?
    This is unacceptable. You know after being an Apple user for 35 years now I am not going to switch to Android lightly, but this is pushing me that way, and it is certainly going to keep me from updating to a newer, shinier phone until you show some commitment to supporting your users, who seem to be experiencing battery issues rather frequently these days.
    Please at least show some INTEREST in being involved in this solution... I'm not seeing any indications of effort to fix this.
    Thank you.

  • Battery drain faster after udating to iOS 8.1.2 ( iPhone 5s A1530 16GB )

    I have been wondering faster battery drain after updating to ios 8, I upgraded to iOS 8.1.2 it has been worst with this drain faster by 40% in draining, What shall i do??? I have contacted apple support and customer care i didn't get a solution. Please help??

    Hi Jaberboss
    I did start a similar thread on this issue myself, but seeing what I've read here I hope you're ok with me adding it here to
    This one is a true case of a phone with zero potentail (electrically)
    OK, I've done the rounds on this one, whereby I'm just adding to the list of complaints so that (hopefully) the powers that be, or not, in my phones case, might listen.
    Since updating my just over 12 month old 5s to 8.1.2, it has turned into a bag of spanners in respect of its battery life. Its literally gone from 24 or so hours between charges to less than 8 !!
    I have tried shutting all the apps down and even had it sitting in full airplane mode, where i've left it alone with the screen off, yet its dropping around 1% every 3 to 4 minutes, blinding!! Checked battery usage in settings after 30 minutes, guess what standby 29 minutes usage 1 minute.
    Also tried the full restore, but to no avail, still a bag of spanners!
    (slight update here)  Even took the SIM out with it in airplane mode and deleted all apps and a full reboot - same thing!
    Does anyone remember the good old days of a fixed land line, where the phone had to be plugged into the wall before you could actually use it? lol
    Nothing like a bit of retro ay, but some how I cant see this one catching on Mr Apple. Thanks
