IPhone :: Will It Harm Battery If Only Charge To Around 80%?
Jul 12, 2010
i usually charge mine from around 10-20% all the way to 100% and it has been fantastic......but right now i am charging mine and it's nearly 1am in uk and it's only on 71% and i dont think i can stay awake much longer......
I definitely dont wanna leave it plugged in overnight so i was wondering will i harm the battery if i take it out soon without waiting till it's fully charged? I obviously dont wanna make it less effective cos so far it's been awesome.
HI my 4 S doesn't take the charge any longer, and sometimes when I turn it off and plug it, it takes a little bit of charge but doesn't hold it long, and the phone get super hot. What should I do to fix that problem, I have donwload all the last version and the phone is only a few months old.
I am a perfectionist, and I am curious. Once, a little while ago, I jailbroke my iPhone 3G (somewhere in de OS 3 saga). I was quite surprised by some new features and I kept the jailbreak for a while. So I got texted, my call history extended et cetera.
But for some reason I wanted to get back to Apples pure, not modded, OS. But I still wanted to have my SMS history and Call History et cetera. On quite a few forums I read about an easy DFU mode and restore with the latest backup I made within iTunes. Written at those forums was that no jailbreak data was backupped in iTunes. Of course, this was a normal backup in iTunes, but from a jailbroken iPhone. I did my restore and my iPhone worked quite well. In fact it still does perfectly, with all histories and logs, in iOS 4.0.1.
But my question is: is there still some data in my iPhone right now from when it was jailbroken, tranfered with a backup created when it was jailbroken? In other words: does a jailbreak affect/harm a usual iPhone backup in iTunes in any way?
So, do I still walk around with some weird strings in my iPhone, or some 0's and 1's in some file?
Is it normal or does it cause any harm having the iphone charger with electricity bites on its tips? Like those caused when you connect the charger to the wall...
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%.
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.
I have a Bold 9000 and it is draining the battery very quickly doesnt even last a few hours with a couple of calls and when its flat will only charge if I take out the battery and put in on a universal charger it wont charge with the blackberry mains charger, car charger or usb connection.I have bought two new batteries and all the same thing, turned off all applications I can see.The phone was bought new from an ebay seller in December and I cant get any response now from them and they are no longer on ebay.I have seen something about updating the system.
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.
It's doing that whole "Can not charge battery, please insert a sony ericsson battery" when it is a Sony Ericsson battery Is there anyway to fix this without going to the store you got it from, its the third time this has happened and im sick of having to return it then go three weeks without a phone.
Like an idiot my iphone 4 got fully sumereged. I put it in rice over night, then took it apart, took out the battery and sim card, and let it dry out in the oven at a low temperature. I put everything back together and it works great, BUT, the battery will not charge. It has been plugged into the wall for an hour and still shows it's almost empty, and has been turning on and off. The warranty is over so I'm not worred about that, but what can I do now? Can I buy a new battery? Will it get better with time? I'm up for a new phone but the 5 is supposed to come out in October and I MUST HAVE IT. What can I do in the meantime??
my iphone 3gs went flat one day so when i got home i tried to charge it. but nothing just a flat phone which came up with a flashing red battery, so connected it to pc and still nothing! so after hours of threads later decided to have a new battery fitted and it works only thing is it still wont charge or connect to i tunes and its dying fast!
when turned on I see the logo that he 's charging when plugged in to the but once I uhm off. through the slide, I see no logo or that he 's charging. if I pull out and put it in the cable - and then he starts to repower .. I see the gray apple logo startup and PIN must then me SO my question is how can I just charging uhm .. without having to start automatically?
I bought a new iPhone in Miami a week a go and yesterday I tried to turn it on for the first time but it didn't work, then I left it charging all night and this morning when I tried it was all charged and working but when I disconected it from de charger it turned off again e did not work, it only turns on when connected to the charger.
The battery was replaced after a fault of the battery going flat ( so I was told ) and would not re-charge and the phone will not work or respond to any buttons.After 3 days of operating and after fully charging the battery then running it down and charging it again it has happened again. The battery shows up when the unit is put on charge but it stays showing with the thin red line at the bottom of the battery.
My iphone 4 has suddenly stopped charging for some reason. I've had no signs of battery problems at all before this.
I've read that some people have managed to fix this problem by doing a hard reset, but my battery was dead before I tried charging it so I can't do this. (when I try I get the connect to power image) I've checked the phone for any signs of lint etc, and cant see anything obvious.
I've tried multiple cables and adapters and the usb slot on my macbook and none of these get any response at all. When I plug into a speaker dock I have got, I get the connect to power supply image on the screen.
The phone is 2 years old (almost to the day) seems they have made it last the exact length of my contract Was wanting to hold off upgrading till the next iphone comes out
After changing the screen and upgrading to the new upgrade, my iPhone 4s won't charge? When plugged into the charger the charging icon appears, but it dosen't charge. But it does get REALLY HOT. Like smelling of burned something hot.
my iphone 4s at 20, 30 or 50! % battery just shut down and take ages for rekindling! I took it to an apple store in Italy and they just told me that everything was fine! are you kidding me? things going worst, today it shut down at 70%,
-Wifi on for about 3 hours -1 exchange push email -Brightness about 40% -1-2 hours of games -An hour iPod -20 minutes 3G talk time -Texting/Checking twitter
