IPhone :: 4 Battery Drain Went Down From Ultra Fast To Ultra Slow Unexpectedly?
May 7, 2012
After suffering from insane battery drain in the last few weeks, following update from jbm 4.3.2 to 5.1, suddenly it stopped!I honestly didn't do *anything* - didn't change my use pattern / touch any settings / reboot / close bg apps / move to different physical location/networks / etc.It just "magically" stopped draining my battery yesterday morning, following the usual nightly charge. Time since last full charge currently shows 22:00 Hrs standby, 1:30 usage, and battery at 74% ! For comparison, it used to to completely drain the battery after about 10 hours of standby, following full nightly charge. I am not complaining, but this gross inconsistency is all too strange, especially coming from Apple. How can I be sure the insane battery drain doesn't return?

I decided to purchase a wrapsol ultra for the iPhone 4 . It arrived yesterday in the post so once i took it out of the box the first problem i found was there was dirt all over the screen protector. So i went anyway and tried to apply to find out the screen protector is not aligned properly with the phone So i took it off and put it to one side but then i noticed there was scratches and scrapes all over my iPhone 4`s screen the back protector is the only good thing that came with the whole set. Im just warning everyone do NOT buy this product , honestly worst product i have ever bought

There is only a very small lamp on in a dark room. I can't tell if I'm impressed or not... I do think that it looks GREAT in standard light situations like a lot of the ones in the standard lit video thread but the flash does light the picture well when dark.What do you think of the quality with low/no light and flash?

Does anyone know if Sena ultra slim case for the iphone 4 is the exact same ultra slim case for the 3G/3GS? Not sure if they just say it's a new case for the new iphone just to sell it as it looks exactly like the same ultra slim case I have for my 3G.

Yesterday I've updated my phone to 4.4.4, and today I've activated the Ultra Stamina Mode option, and when it was done loading, everything was working fine.. I've disabled Ultra Stamina Mode, the phone rebooted, everything was working fine until I've enabled the Ultra Stamina Mode again, and after it was done loading, then I had to go.. I've listened to music on my MDR-ZX610AP(which btw, the button is now finally working), and after 30 minutes, when I came back home, I wanted to disable Ultra Stamina Mode, but it didn't work(I've tapped on the notification and pressed Okay as usually, but the phone was simply not responding to that command, I mean it was not preparing for reboot), so I've rebooted the phone by holding power and selecting restart, and after the restart, I got stuck somewhere between Ultra Stamina Mode and the normal mode.

Following is the sequence of incidents that resulted to the issue.
1. I activated battery stamina mode when phone was 100 percent charged. I also enabled low battery mode to start when battery goes down to 8 percent.
2. When battery went to 12 percent, I activated Ultra stamina mode. Pls note that when I activiated USM, the SM was already active.
3. USM got activiated without any issue.
4. Once I reached home, I connected charger and tried to disabled USM from notification tray option, which didn't do anything at all. Then I removed the charging cable and disabled the USM from Power management settings. Finally the phone rebooted.
5. When the phone powered up, it didn't restore anything from normal mode or SM mode (I mean the home screen layout, apps, etc), everything was just the way it was when USM was active.
6. Most of the apps where not visible in app drawer but were visible in settings->Apps
Finally I restored/resetted the phone, lost all apps and data from internal storage and phone started working normal again.

The Flash Disk works with and is recognized by other devices, such as Samsung Galaxy S3, Sony Xperia Z3, and Galaxy Note 4. But my newly purchased Z5 compact (Version 5.1.1, Build # 32.0.A.6.200) does not recognize the usb disk. Tried in safe mode, stamina mode, and normal mode. None of them works. Am I missing something, or is the product defective?It even doesn't fit perfectly. The drive fits other phones perfectly.

I just got my S6 after having an S5 and I don't know if this is the same for everyone but I wanted to ask.
I used to be able to get 12 days out of my phone on UPS on s5 but the s6 only goes for 3.5 days?

I turned the Ultra Power Saving Mode and after sending a few text messages locking and unlocking the phone it froze for a moment so I restarted the phone. Now It shows me the normal home screen and I can access my apps page but everything is turned off and I cannot turn Ultra Saving Mode off. I tried manually turning it off, restarting it, taking the battery off and putting it back on.
I also performed the soft reset using the Volume Up/Power/Home method and when I click to clear the partition it gives me an error.

Last night, I went to bed with 30% battery. Because I tend to lose 15-20% overnight (approx. 8 hours), I turned on UPSM. I woke up before my alarm this morning and checked my phone for the time, only to see I had 1% battery. I had a backup alarm, because the phone was dead 30 minutes later when the alarm should have went off. I went from 3.7 days approx. battery life on UPSM to dead.
From my understanding, UPSM is supposed to turn data off if the screen is off, correct? If it doesn't, I found my culprit as my apartment gets horrible data connection for being in a city, so it would be continuously searching for that connection. If it should turn it off, why did UPSM not work? Nothing came through during the night (calls, sms, etc.).

I am using Galaxy S6 and have questions regarding the Power Saver. I attached my Ppwer Saver Estimation and saw that even when in Ultra Power Saving Mode my phone will only last for 11 hours in 50% battery?? That is very far from what I am expecting, because lots of info usually with Ultra power saving with 10% battery will last for 24 hour.
Is it normal, or there are something i must do to prolonge my battery life?

My wife recently washed her phone and by accident got some water inside (water indicator in the back is red). Since then the phone didn't want to charge! It starts charges for a second then stops.
We have been swapping batteries since I also have a GS5 but it's been really annoying.
I thought the charging module had been damaged but just yesterday by accident she found out she could charge it if the phone is in "Ultra Power Savings Mode".

I get a pop-up that says: "Ultra Stamina Mode Repair" Then my phone turns off and keeps restarting.
I know using Pc Companion to fix that, but it will factory reset my phone.
Could you change the design, maybe you can let the user to decide whether or not to reboot phone.
That will avoid rebooting again and again.

What sony think restarting phone when turn off Ultra Stamina Mode? This is annoying for me unless you're planning to use Ultra Stamina Mode for a whole year without internet connection and you don't have to see your phone restarting every time u trying to save up your battery life.

Noticed that Z3 always awake (and thus bad battery life), even from within Ultra Stamina mode with no running apps? This happened to me twice now with just over two weeks of using this phone. I haven't been able to take specific steps to replicate this yet, but 2 days in about 16 days means so far over 12% of the days.
Usually, the phone lasts over 24 hours with moderate use. I normally have stamina mode "on", and set to activate at 50% battery level, and then Low Battery mode to activate at 20%. Note also that all the apps I am using have been installed from the first day I've been using the phone. That is, I have not installed any new apps before I noticed this happening, and when I have "normal" battery life it is using the same set of apps.
Here is an outline of what happens:
I notice a much faster than usual power drain, despite being a typical day of usage (i.e. nothing out of the ordinary). I go to battery usage, and see the history details, and see that "Awake" has been on constantly, including during long screen off times, and all the while with Stamina mode enabled and active.
I then restart the phone. Problem still there, still constantly awake despite screen off and stamina.
Battery dips below 20% and Low Battery mode activates.
Phone keeps on being constantly "awake", despite no usage and now both low battery AND stamina modes on.
Restart the phone. Same problem.
I turn on Ultra Stamina mode. (I did this last time at 17%)
Phone continues to be always awake. Battery quickly drains down to 5% within less than an hour and almost no use, even though Ultra Stamina is supposed to stretch the life for an order of magnitude longer than that.
I shut off the phone to avoid complete discharge. When I return home, I plug it in and wait for a decent charge before turning the phone back on.
After full charge, I take the phone off the charger. Phone now works normally again, without always being "awake".
I can't figure out what causes this sequence of events to kick off in the first place. I'm trying to play around with things to get it to start doing this, but so far I haven't been successful in deliberately replicating the problem.
My android version is 5.0.2, v. 23.1.A.0.726.

My Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge is locked--""Unable to recognize your fingerprint. Enter your backup password to unlock the device". Apparently I do not know the password.
It is in Ultra Power Saving mode. I have tried Android Device Manager...the message I entered shows on the screen, but the temporary password I set does not work. Almost feels like the screen I'm entering that password on is the wrong screen, and I'm limited by the power saving features.
Not sure what else to try; Samsung's Locate my Phone doesn't seem useful.

Over the last couple of days I've noticed that most of my notifications are no longer appearing. I still get the from gmail and 1 game, but nothing from my other email accounts (I use Cloud Magic for my email, 5 accounts), Instagram, Twitter, Google Now, etc.
I've done some searching but haven't come up with a definitive answer anywhere, however I did see someone mention a problem with using notifications after having used ultra power save mode, and then turning it off. I used UPS mode for the first time on Sunday so it may well be the cause.
I've restarted the phone a couple of times, and checked the notifications settings in Cloud Magic and Instagram and they're as they should be.

I have been having intermittent problems with fast battery drain before and after upgrading my Samsung Galaxy S2 to ICS. In fact the reason why I upgraded to ICS is to see if it would fix it. Most of the articles I have read on the net are about people who have problems after the upgrade, which is why I am left puzzled. Often I leave my phone unplugged during the night and it has almost completely drained by the morning. here is some more information:
- In the battery stats my Android OS percentage is always high (60% +)
- I am always careful with trying to preserve battery life, for example setting the backlight to minimum brightness and closing applications which are running in the background
- I have gone for months where the battery has been fine, but cant seem to spot a trend
