IPhone :: Disabling Push For Email Saves A Bit Of Battery?
Aug 11, 2010
I've read that disabling push for email saves a bit of battery so I have it set to fetch every hour.
My question is, I have push activated for the official Facebook app on my phone so would enabling push for the iphone email client make any difference to battery life as I have it enabled for facebook anyway?
I know a lot of you here would love the battery life i am getting so i do not mean to sound like i am complaining! I am mostly just curious! Basically i was amazed with how good my battery life was initially. I think on my second full charge i managed 8h30mins screen on time and probably averaged somewhere between 7hours - 8h30mins for the fist few days (needless to say i made tweaks to achieve those results as i always do when i buy a new phone)
I have since disabled anther 2 or 3 apps and i have also turned off location and used black themed wallpapers purely just to test if i could get even further from the battery! However the opposite has happened! Suddenly iam doing well if i make it to 5h30mins
I know that may not seem bad .......... but its not great considering the amount of tweaks i have made and i am at a loss to understand how i was getting 7-8 hours screen on time for the first few days/week!
Iam wondering if i could have disabled an app that could be behind this?
When i viewed my battery usage before i would often see chrome, facebook etc using a little battery where as now its screen, android system, android os, cell standby, device idle etc and recently peoplestripe is appearing as using 1%...
I want to have Notifications on in order to use Find My iPhone using MobileMe. Does anyone know if having Notifications on while having Push off for every App and email account affects battery life? I know that using Push drains the battery but don't know how having Push on but not using it affects the battery.
I know push notifications drain your battery more quickly, but I was wondering if the number of apps that you have set to use push effects the battery life even more.
i.e. Does the iPhone drain battery more quickly if you have 4 apps using push rather than just 1?
I'd imagine the number of apps using push doesn't have much to do with battery life since regardless of number of apps the 3G radio is going to be on.
My company has a Blackberry "Style Flip" 9670 for our sales-people traveling in Northern Canada in the Yukon area. This phone goes with whoever is going on that particular trip, however it has 5 different email accounts associated with it for the 3 users that share it.
I don't know if this is possible with a Blackberry or not, but we would love if there was an easy way to temporarily disable the email accounts that do not belong to the person carrying the phone at that point in time.
The way it is now, we have User A (2 email accounts), User B (2 email accounts), and User C (1 email account) sharing this phone. If 'User C' is presently up north and has the phone and sends an email to 'User A' and 'User B', the email is still received on the shared BB for both 'User A' & 'User B' and wastes a lot of precious bandwidth. The main dilema is the two users with multiple accounts on that phone receive a ton of emails daily. This means 'User C' may have 1 crucial email waiting to be received, but has to wait for all of 'User A' & 'User B's' emails to be received before getting the important email.
Is there a way without deleting the accounts each time to turn certain email accounts on and off?
It started happening yesterday, I have push email off but I keep getting new mail in the Inbox. Is it possible that if you have mail app in the multitasking bar it will keep checking for new mail?
I have an iPhone 4S - my question is about PUSH mail Does iPhone support PUSH only with some email providers - if yes, where can i find a list with these email providers ?! The PUSH feature is provided by iPhone, or by the providers of email hosting ... to be more precise, iPhone can support PUSH as long as the email provider have this feature built-in ?!
I understand the process to disable data services and therby stop emails. How can I stop email without disabling internet 3G Wifi access? (If at all)It is a work phone so I have no BIS access.
This has been an on and off issue since I purchased the iPhone 4. Seems a restart resolves it but I can never be too sure. I don't know what causes it though.
I have 5 accounts setup. My fetch accounts are not fetching. I have to manually go in and let it check, then it finds them.
Anyone else having this issue? It's a little annoying. Anyone know what might be causing it?
Is anyone else experiencing problems with push email notifications using IOS 4.0+? My old 3g, new Iphone 4, and colleagues 3gs (not to mention my wife's old 3g and new 4) all experience lack of push notifications for Yahoo email..
It looks like my iphone 4 checks email every 15 min or so even though everything is turned off? The Fetch is set Manually. Under "Advanced" it says If Manual is selected, this account will only check for updates when the application is in use.
But I made sure the Mail is not running on the background, how come it still checks mail?
As a student in college, I constantly email my professors back and forth but waiting 15 minute intervals until my mail refreshes is ridiculous. I can't seem to find a way around this... I have just switch to the iphone from a blackberry which automatically pushed my email on its arrive to the server, so this is extremely annoying that I have to wait or manually push my mail. I mainly use my college email account which is not associated with g-mail, hotmail, yahoo etc.
I have problem with email on my Motorola Razr. (not gmail, not corporate, just a email)I have setup email account and:-In Data push account is checked.-Sync over Wi-Fi only is unchecked-background data is checked- data Enabled is checked- No data saver checked.I can check my email manually it is work.- If I receive a new email up to 30(not sure) minutes after manually checking the push email is working fine i get it on my phone.- But if I receive a new email more than 30 minutes after manually check the push email does not work. I do no receive any emails until manually checking.Email server works fine I use it on other phone an
Suddenly, I stopped receiving any push notifications from mail. I tried reset, deleting and adding account, toggle through all notifiction options, restarting the phone. I also have problem receiving notifications from facebook. rest of all app notification works fine.
suppose I have some games or special apps that I used and I had some savings and settings on them, but if I have to restore iPhone or reinstall the apps, I'm I losing the savings? I dare not to try.And buying the plugins in the apps are very commen now, so if I uninstall the apps and reinstall them again, can I get the plugins back?
I'm an iPod 4G owner and just purchased an iPhone 3GS.Now, I made a lot of progress with some games but the saves aren't on my iPhone, so I have to start over( like 100 Floors, Mini Cars, etc.)I have sync'd all the apps, some games do continue, but other don't. So does any one know how to transfer the saves? I don't care how.
P.S. I still have the iPod, didn't changed anything on it.
Info: iPhone 3GS, iOS 5.1.1, iPod 4G, Saves, Games
I do have an Iphone 4s running 5.1.1, the problem is it can't save my internet and mms setting so I need to re-enter them every time :- the device powers off- in and out of airplane mode- set cellular data on after being off?
I"m using pop3 service to my computer and my blackberry cell phone. About 2 days ago, my inmail24 pop3 service start trouble by sending same email to my blackberry cell phone as long I haven"t deleted those email via webmail. this is very annoying, i have to log in to webmail to delete all the inbox so it wont received again in my 9700. however as soon as new emails coming to my inbox, the problem arise again, it received again and again same email. my other email which i connected with push email, did not have any problem, received only once at any email and did not get any duplication received. Also my outlook at my computer is normal, receive all email only once, and did not get any duplication as my blackberry 9700 phones.
I have aCurve 8330. ! have used Outlook Web Access (now App) to get e-mail from my job for more than a year. Last week I got a message that I needed to confirm my password. I was unable to get the system/phone to accept it so I deleted the e-mail address & attempted to set it up from scratch. I have spent 2 hours trying. My employer's IT dept spent an hour and my local cell carrier guru also tried for about an hour. We get a message that there is an error in the data submitted. I know my Web App info works 'cause I can sign on from several computers with no problem. I called tech help at Blackberry where the nice overseas guy told me "you can't use OWA, only normal e-mail addresses". (Since the set up screens still have the forms to do it, I assume he was wrong.) I have had 2 other e-mail addresses push to the phone for over a year which have no problem. (not going through OWA). We have deleted those 2 & reset with no problem. The problem seems to only be related to Web App.
I bought a LG G3 a few weeks ago and the same day I upgraded to Lollipop via factory reset before updating, then adding my accounts. I haven't had push email on any account since day one and I've read several threads in where it's claimed there's push email on Lollipop, or at least the gmail app. The lack of complaints about this tells me either it works properly for almost everyone, or it doesn't and few people care. I'd like proper push email, like I have on my Z10, but I can't seem to figure out where the problem lies. When I send myself test email the Z10 sounds off as my finger lifts off my mouse button, and then my desktop as soon as my Z10 goes quiet. Sometime in the next hour my G3 receives the same mail. It's the same result whether on WiFi or carrier connection.
I'm sure this has been asked before so I apologize ahead of time, but I was wondering if there was a way to make your email "push" faster. Right now it takes me sometimes at least 10 minutes to receive an email after it's sent, I was wondering if there's a way to make your email push like every 2 minutes instead of every 10.
Also sometimes when I send an email with my blackberry, the person I send it to receives it as a message with all symbols and not the message I sent. Is this a known problem, or is something wrong with my blackberry?
AFAIU Nokia Messaging may or may not be free depending on the operator, which can charge you for the service.
Pretty much like BlackBerry, albeit in that case all data go through their servers.
If all connections go through your provider's APN, how would Nokia know whether you're connected to Nokia Messaging or to some other server? All data exchange simply count towards your internet bundle, regardless if you use it for mail, internet browsing or whatever else you want to do, doesn't it?
The stock email program will not sync new messages unless I open the app. This only occurs on wifi. Works great on cellular data. Have checked all of the settings I can think of.
I've set up gmail, iCloud and ms exchange account on outlook app on my Lumia 950. All emails have the option of push (get emails as they arrive) except foe iCloud. Same account had the push option on my old bb10 phone.
i am thinking of getting the above after 18 happy months with my Blackberry 8900.Can anyone tell me if i can get push email from a server? my friend has set up an email for my website (to be) and i would like my email from this website pushed to my phone. The BB does this with ease!Its a standard incoming POP and outgoing SMTP and i can set this up on Outlook.Dont mind if its an application to buy.
