Why is my battery draining down so quickly, since the latest update?

Why has my battery life gone from a once a day charge to nearly needing to keep it plugged up all the time. Since I installed the latest update, my phone will go from 100% charge to 30-40% within 3-1/2 hours and that's just sitting in standby on my desk at work. I have made sure all my background stuff is turned off, including the background refresh thingy. It's a little aggregating and if someone has an answer me and my family would love to hear it. Thanks.

Well razmee209, I have done everything on the list that you sent me and turned off everything I could, that's working in the background, and still be able to function with my phone and the battery is still draining off dramatically. I even did the recalibration to no avail.
I honestly didn't have any battery issues until installed the latest update and ever since it has been bad. It would be different if it were just me but based on what I have read it's happening to everyone. It really ***** cause my battery was unplugged at 5:50am and at 10:40am it's at 40% life left. You all really have created a power but in the last update.

  • Why am I suddenly getting tons of spam email since the latest update?

    I have updated Thunderbird many times over the years and never lost its ability to send spam email to the junk folder. Suddenly, I have tons of it (labeled spam by Norton) still sitting in my inbox and I am having to delete it all every day! Any reason you know of that this is happening? Thanks!

    My guess is the Norton tool is not compatible with the latest version of Thunderbird. After all Thunderbird sends what it considers spam to the junk folder. Your Norton product does it's own thing entirely.

  • Why is my iphone 4s restarting ever since the latest update?

    I've had several different issues that I've noticed since updating to the IOS 5.1 last night over Wi-Fi connection.  First, my phone will restart itself when I receive a call from a saved contact.  I then have to wait for the phone to restart and then call them back.  Once I do call them back, my call screen is disable, like when you're on a call and hit the home button to check email or safari at the same time.  Only when I tap the green bar at the top of my screen to return to the call it does nothing.  I'm unable to place a call on hold, mute, or use any of the buttons that are usually available.  Its like the screen is locked in that view or something.  The least important issue but the first I actually noticed is that my TextFree app isn't working.  The app won't startup after the login screen and just sends my back to the app page its on.  Any ideas guys???

    What is a fresh restore?  I'm sorry but I'm not up on the lingo LoL but I'll give it a shot if I know what I have to do>

  • What is it about the latest update that causes my battery life to be so short?

    Since the latest update my battery life has gone from great to horrendous. I used to be able to get through an 8-hour day at work with no issues now I'll get low battery issues after just a few hours. I presume if I do a factory reset I'll loose all my apps and the phone will insist I redo the update. What am I supposed to do?

    You should back up any music or videos, documents or files to a PC and then factory reset the phone.  You can either let the reset re-install the apps and app data, or do a clean install to avoid other issues and uncheck those boxes in Back up and Reset menu in Main Settings of the phone.  You can always batch install from the Play Store once you reset or you can go to the Play Store webpage, sign in and restore apps from there as well.  Make sure you are fully charged to 100%.

  • Why is my battery draining so quickly after updating to Mavericks?

    Why is my battery draining so quickly after updating to Mavericks?

    1. Check the cycle count of the battery. It may be due for replacement. If the power adapter is connected almost all the time, the battery may need replacing even though the cycle count is not too high.
    2. Follow these instructions, or these for OS X 10.9 or later.
    3. You can also try resetting the SMC.
    4. Make sure your system is up to date in Software Update.
    5. Make a "Genius" appointment at an Apple Store, or go to another authorized service center.

  • Why is my battery drained so quickly on my 4S?

    Why is my battery drained so quickly on my 4S, even though I don't use apps/Internet excessively.  It says it should last 6 hours using the Internet.

    I had my iPhone use 20% of power an hour before I did the following.
    1.) Turn off iAds and diagnostics in location settings:system settings.
    2.) Turn off Calender in Notifications
    3.) If you have any exchange mail accounts ( I had 3 Gooogle accounts one set for mail and calendar, 2 set for mail only. remember when setting Google server m.google.com or it won't push to the phone.) delete them REBOOT your iPhone then redo them then Reboot one more time.
    Result: iPhone batt usage is now 4% an hour. my phone went for 19 hours with moderate (streaming, surfing, recording and viewing movies on camera app) on wifi use before getting to 5%

    Why iPad mini battery drain so quickly in sleep mode? about 35% in 7 days sleep mode (100% to 65%). Compare with my iPad 2, 7 days in sleep mode, only 2%! (100 - 98%). is it because differences in iOS? iPad mini iOS 6.0.1, iPad 2 iOS 4.3.3. I'm really frustating because of this. thanks for help

    What kind of ipad mini / ipad 2 you got?
    AFAIK,
    1. ipads drain battery with 3g/4g on (regardless on wifi or not) 1% overnight.. so for 7 days .. 65 is about correct.
    2. Are your ipads setup to receive remote push notification? (more push = more battery drain.. as the screen lit up)
    3. With iOS 6 vs iOS 4 .. there are more stuff running in the background and more toggles.. that could also contribute to battery drain.

  • HT1629 Why does my battery drain quickly?

    I just charged it 2 hours ago and its 19% all i have been doing is surfing the net!
    Just wondering if anyone else has this problem? mine is the macbook pro mid 2012 2.9ghz
    THANKS!

    I have the same computer and I'm having the same issue.  My battery doesn't even last me through class anymore when it used to last me through all of my classes.  It also gets very hot when I am really not doing much to stress the CPU.  This all started after the latest update to 10.8.5.  I hope this gets resolved because my computer has become useless to me now. 

  • Why is my battery running down on an iPhone 4 running iOS 7?

    Why is my battery running down on my iPhone 4 when I'm not using my phone and all apps are closed?  My phone will have a full charge at night, no apps running. Bluetooth is off, automatic updates are off, backgroud app refresh is off, and by morning the battery's charge has dropped to 50%.  Some nights it will only drop 1-2% though, with no changes made. How can I fix this?
    Also, since the update I am not receiving push notifications for some apps that I have them turned on for (turned on both in settings, and the app itself).
    Any helpful advice is greatly appreciated.

    I had been having battery problems with my Iphone 5 and decided to make a trip to the genuis bar, in the end they replaced my battery and reset my software because i had a failing battery and the hardware was malfunctioning. You may have something similar. I would recommend making a reservation to the genius bar online. They can then run a diagnostic on your iphone and get back detailed results on the current condition of your battery and wether or not the software controlling it is working. If you have applecare currently then they can replace the battery for free, if not there is a charge of around $70. If it turns out you have a different problem than they probably will be able to find out and give you better advice than I can!
    Good Luck!
