BB Torch :: Battery Not Holding Charge After Upgrading?
Feb 3, 2012
I upgraded my phone software to 6.0 Bundle 2949 last weekend and since then I am having to recharge my phone 4 to 5 times a day. As soon as I open facebook, camera ect the battery completely dies and turns it's self off.This morning for example it was fully charged - had charged over night. Left for work at 7:30am, took one phone call - 5 mins, sent 2 texts. By 10:30am my phone had switched it's off. It's driving me mad and I can't be without my phone as I am pregnant and need it to get in touch with partner etc.Now I onlu upgraded the software because the battery wasn't holding it's charge but it was 100% better than it is now.
I have read through threads and have removed the battery repeatedly and even left it out.Removed the SD card and sim card and nothing. In fact in last an hour after charging it for the second time today and I never even used it!I am not technical but I desperately need help!!Is it worth trying to downgrade the software? - if so is there a dummies guide to this? Do I return it to o2 for them to see if there is other problems with it?I have shut down all apps other than the ones that remain there at all times. I check this regularly especially if the battery loses charge quickly. I am finding that it is fully charges within 20 mins from the battery being completely drained (turning it's self off) to being fully charges.I still have 9 months left on my contract before I can upgrade but I can't cope with it like it is now. I love blackberry but after the problems with this one am tempted to switch!| have also noticed that the desktop software has upgraded too!

I bought this phone for my son for Christmas and despite having it on charge for a few hours it still shows that there's 56% battery charge then once you unplug the charger the phone won't turn on, completely dead! Tried to check software but when I plug it into laptop it just says device unplugged, the only time I got it to recognise it it was unable to find device driver software. Must admit its completely put me off this phone before we've started, I champion Nokia all the time but wish I'd bought him an iPhone now!!

I bought an iPhone 4s in November 2013. The phone is through Sprint. (didn't know if that made a difference or not.) In the past 7 months the phones apps have been opening & shutting right down, the app might stay on for 2 minutes if you're lucky. It started out with my Facebook app shutting down, then it progressed to other apps & the repeated random shutdowns have been getting worse. The phone itself overheats without even being plugged into the charger. The Safari is now beginning to close randomly. I called my carrier & they said that they could run a diagnostics test on my phone to see what's making it do what it's doing. Since the phone has been shutting down & randomly shutting apps off for over 7 months, they've ruled out the option of it being a bad software through Apple.

My BB Torch 9800 on my AT&T network is constantly not holding any battery charge, it's constantly dying on me even though I constantly have in plugged into a car charger or a wall charger at all times, it also started to reboot itself and then once its complete it reboots itself again and again and again. I've tried leaving the battery out for 15min and then trying to reboot it again, that does nothing. I've gone into the Options section under Device and disables the Compression, that did nothing, I've check the CPU Usage for the day and the week nothing is really eating the power up. I have also held down the menu button and switched off all my apps in there and still no better.

We send a droid razr for repair on 8/22 and it was received on 8/24. Received an email at 11:03 on 8/27 that the problem with the phone is not covered under the warrantee and to contact Motorola as soon as possible to authorize and pay for the repair. I agreed to pay $125 plus tax to repair the screen as long as the overheating and battery not holding a charge was looked into. Today I called to see what was going on and was advised that she (rep) has no idea and would send an email and get back to me within 24-24 hours. I advised that was not acceptable and I was sent to the Repair Escalation Department, Curtis advised me the exact same thing and when i explained that my phone has been with Motorola since 8/24 and they have had my payment since 8/27 and that originally I was advised that the repair would be done and the phone back to me within 5 business days and we were now at 8 and I needed to speak to a supervision he stated that he was the supervisor and there was no one above him to talk to. Someone please explain how I am getting the same exact information (none with a 24 to 48 hour wait time) from customer service and the Repair Escalation Department?

I have a BB Bold 9900. I have had it less than 3 months. Right from the start I couldn't get more than 24 hours from a single charge, even if I refrained from known "drainers" such as WiFi, Internet Browsing and Games. Now I can barely get 12 hours out of a single charge.It doesn't seem to matter if I use my phone a lot or not at all the battery runs down just as fast.

I have an iphone 3G that I got in September last year. In the last few weeks it has stopped holding a charge. I will leave for work in the morning with 100% charge and by 2:00 the phone is out of charge and turns off. I don't use it, apps are closed and wi fi is off. Why is in not holding charge? What can I do?

I bought a brand new battery, and left it to charge overnight, when I woke up, the battery icon was still red with a plug logo on it (which insures me that it's charging) I thought the battery was messed up, so I returned it and took another one, but again, it's been in the charger for 2 hours straight now, and the battery icon is still red with the plug icon on it.

My phone is unable to charge the battery up. The phone and battery are both working fine, but the problem seems to be with charging. I've used multiple chargers so the problem does lie with the phone itself.

I brought a blackberry a couple of days ago and it has been fine. Then today it ran out of battery and so when I got home I put it on charge. It is not turning back on and has been charging for nearly 4 hours. I have tried the battery pull and still nothing. There is no lights and the screen is just blank. What should I do?

This is a new battery and has the same problem that I was experiencing before purchasing the new battery. If I remove the battery and reboot the system, it will show a full to a 3/4 charge--but only for a minute or two, then it shows that the battery is dead again.

is there any way of getting the blackberry to give you the alt character of the key by just pressing and holding the key rather than the letter in capitals?

I just picked up two new nokia icons off ebay.. it was listed as new at least.. came in a box etc..
If i plug it in to charge.. it charges at about 1% per hour if that.. turn the screen on and it drops several percent,. use it unplugged and it rapidly discharges maybe 15% or more in a very short period of time.
Im guessing i got a bad batch?
Its very odd that both phones exhibit the same behavior.. and just for kicks i left 8.1 on one and put 10 on the other.

Both my wife and I have Defy's owned for 4 months and upgraded to Froyo 2.2 some weeks ago.both working normally.Then yesterday my phone, for no obvious reason, came up with the message "Invalid Battery.Your device battery is invalid and cannot be charged. Replace the battery with an origional motorola battery." Also the battery symbol at top right of display is black, not green, and has a? mark in it. I have checked my battery, which came with the phone, and it is official Motorola with hologram. So is my wifes.I tried swapping the batteries and while my battery works perfectly in her phone, her battery in my phone gives the same errors.I then tried a master reset....Twice! Both successful, wiping all my data, and requiring me to set up the phone again, but problem still remains.

My iphone 4s battery was dead, so I replaced a battery bought over internet. Now when I charge the phone ( using usb cable plugged to the power outlet on the wall) on right top corner it displays "battery is charged" (battery icon with a plug) but % of charge remains at 5%.

Looks like battery life is very bad after upgrading to 5.1.1. Full battery goes dry in less than 7hrs - even without making lots of calls.
