My wife's BB has suddenly (last 3 days) started discharging the battery at a silly rate full to flat within 3 hours without use. The only activity seems to be a small clock appearing in the centre of the screen intermittently which she says she hasn't noticed before. This also comes on when writing mails prior to the typed in letter appearing on the screen It has the latest soft and firmware.
View 9 RepliesI've had the Droid Turbo for a few months now, and the battery life has been great. It was the biggest reason I bought this phone in the first place. Over the past two days, however, the battery life has DRAMATICALLY downgraded. At 11 p.m. last night, I had 58% battery life with no apps running. The phone was in sleep mode. That much battery should have been able to get me through last night and ALL of TODAY. This morning, I check my phone, and I'm at 22% with the phone not in use for 8 hours.
All of the bells and whistles on this device are turned off. I don't have the reach out display thing turned on where it recognizes your movement. The screen is only taking up 30% of the battery draw. I have the bare minimum notifications turned on - the rest are off. My system did NOT update within the last two days. The battery simply seems to be freaking out.
I've had my blackberry for almost 2 years now and my bbm and internet suddenly started not working 2 nights ago, ive tried resteting my phone and it still doesnt work, when I try to send a message or someone tries to send me one, it just comes up with a cross and I can't connect to the internet.
View 9 Replies View RelatedMy BB is a curve 9300 that has suddenly started restarting on its own while texting, calling, left alone etc. Has been doing this the past two days about 8 times a day. Softwares are supposedly up to date. Have removed the batteries and sim and restarted, but it has not helped.
View 9 Replies View RelatedMy Curve's keyboard has suddenly started to malfunction, some letters double or triple up. This is especially problomatic when typing in a password or texting. The keys also seem to have a slow response time. Especially the backspace button which i have to click multiple times to get to delete things. And it seems random for which letters it doubles up, but this problem has been happening for the past 4 days.
View 1 Replies View RelatedJust curious if anyone else has experienced this. When I have my phone 100% charged, I can watch a movie for about 2 hrs, and when I'm done, my batttery is like 50%. (While charging with the wall charger the whole time and screen brightness about 40%.)
View 2 Replies View RelatedOk, so just checking if there is any explanation other than a hardware problem here. I received my second refurb today after my first one arrived with obvious hardware problems and I had to send it back. Twice so far, while plugged in to the AC wall charger, my battery has started discharging. This is with the Motorola wall charger and Motorola extended battery. One time I was using the phone when this happened and the other I was not - it was just sitting there with nothing happening on it but with the screen on and plugged in.
This has never happened before, so if it is a hardware problem, it would be much more likely the "new" phone rather than the battery. I don't want to go through the replacement process a third time and lose even more time without a functioning phone if this could potentially be caused by something else. They said they will not send me a new (non-refurb) phone, no matter how many problems I have and no matter how many broken "certified like new" phones they send me. Doing a search on this, all I found were posts about car chargers not providing enough power with Navigator in use, which does not apply to my case. I really want this not to be a hardware problem with the phone since they will just send me yet another untested, broken refurb, so I'm just grasping for straws I guess despite the obvious.
Ever since I got my defy I was very impressed with the battery life. After the group update I found it shortened slightly compared to with eclair but still good This weekend its suddenly started discharging at a crazy rate! I've twice tried hard reseting the handset but it continues to discharge quickly!I run very few applications. The major 3 being whatapp. Facebook and twitter.
View 9 Replies View RelatedSince I updated my Xperia X8 to Android 2.1 it is very quickly discharging. It lasts about only 1 day. And when I have a call it takes about 6 % from charge. I have all application closed and tried all advise from guide.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI just had this happen yesterday. I was getting on a flight and powered off my phone. I had about 40% when I powered down. When I got off the flight, my phone wouldn't power up, so I found an outlet and found that I had no power. I know I powered it off, and so why would it be out of juice when it had battery left when I powered down?
View 6 Replies View RelatedJust yesterday when I plugged my phone into the ac adapter to charge after a while I noticed the phone was really warm, hot even, and it wasn't charging as quickly as it usually does. This morning I realized that my phone was at 70% when i had fully charged it last night and didn't really use it until that point. Around 10-15 mins later my battery life was at 60% and kept dropping around the same time to 50%. I had to keep plugging my phone in just to have a decent amount of battery life. The phone still feels hot when I have it plugged in and it doesn't seem to be charging as quickly as it should.

No Browser is running and I dont have any apps. I was on the phone for 15 min and my battery was half dead when I got off. Was never like that before. I've had this phone for almost 2 years. The same thing is happening with the rest of my families Blackberrys. Why is this?
View 6 Replies View RelatedI got my curve 9900 about a month and a half ago and I haven't dropped or damaged it in any way but the battery has stated to drain itself in a few hours when fully charged (this has been happening for the past week) and phone lags and freezes on the loading clock sign. Also, when I turn it off at night and try to turn it on in the morning it's battery is dead and I have to charge it again.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI got my Razr in March and it has been great until about a week ago, but it's started to get really hot periodically throughout the day, even when I'm not using it. Today the battery drained in 8 hours and I hardly used it.
View 1 Replies View RelatedSo today, my phone alarm wakes me up at the right time, but when I unlocked it to look at the time, it's behind by 1.5 hours. When I restart my phone, initially it displays the correct time again, but after a second it changes back- here's the kicker - it still thinks I'm in the right location (St. John's, Newfoundland, Canada)
Last night after midnight I had a text conversation with a phone number I didn't know. They messaged me out of the blue saying that they knew me, but all the responses were generic so I think it was some sort of a scam... even though they didn't ask for anything. The area code for the number came from Quebec, which is... 1.5 hours behind us here. Coincidence? Have I been hacked or something?
I certainly didn't change anything today - but after booting up as I usually do every morning, I am FINALLY getting email notification & my email is being pushed to my phone when it is sleeping !! This issue has been going on (for me) for over a month.

My Razr has suddenly started the ringer volume bar coming up on the screen by itself. I can only get it off the screen by turning my phone off and then back on again. Then after a period of time, it comes back up again. This is killing my battery life.
View 1 Replies View RelatedSo my phone suddenly started flickering out of the blue. And had lines going down vertically. I restarted the phone and then the display was fine but the touch screen wouldn't work. Upon another restart it was just a blank screen with white vertical lines.
Figuring something must be wrong with the screen I ordered a new one, and upon install the new screen has the same problem. Blank screen vertical white lines. Not sure if another component is faulty.
My curve 8520 is 30 months old. My battery is suddenly draining very quickly, an hour or so. Was fine yesterday. I have tried three other batteries, previously fine, and the same thing happens.
View 7 Replies View RelatedI bought my Blackberry a month ago and the battery life was pretty good (3 days). Then the other day I downloaded a few apps (dictionary, flashlight and barcode scanner) and also added a lot of music onto the phone. Now the battery life just goes after a few hours. I've turned off Bluetooth and WiFi. I don't know what is sucking all the life out of my battery. I haven't browsed the internet or talked on the phone. It just sits there doing nothing and the battery goes dead.
View 5 Replies View RelatedI've had my blackberry curve 8520 for quite a long time but in the last couple of days I've noticed that its getting quite hot and I'm worried about this? Also one morning I noticed my blackberry battery was on half but I left it of for most of the day and turned it on for about four hours but in that time it had died. The next day it was fully charged by 10 am and by 5 pm it was dead. I don't understand why its doing this, I've never had this problem before and I haven't made any changes. I have the same amount of apps and songs and I had before this problem and I hadn't used any apps or listened to any music this day so it just doesn't make sense.
View 2 Replies View Relatedmy 8900 is suddenly using up its battery in 2 hours. This has happened after i tried to log onto App World yesterday but the whole phone jammed. It said loading but the little cog wheel was not turning and after about ten minutes i took the battery out as every button was frozen. Now it seems to be working OK but every few minutes there is a little black square appearing in the middle of the screen with like a second hand in it. I am guessing there is some sort of programme running in the background? I have tried hard re booting (ie removing the battery when the phone is on) a couple of times but the battery is still draining and the little black square keeps appearing?

View 7 Replies View Relatedi have a battery issue with my iphone 5 after the 8.1.1 upgrade. The phone started to shut down at 20-30% battery. Then i try a restore. Then i saw a post by Lawrence Finch advising to drain out all the battery and wall charge it for 4 hours. I did. It was almost one hour charging to turn back on. This changed the behavior and it kind did solve the problem because after this i saw my battery going 100 to 1% in 8-10 hours without any over use. NOW the situation is when arrived to 1% it stucked there. Im on full bright, wifi on, 7 apps open (facebook, minions game, etc) and it won't turn off.
