Re: battery drainage found problem

2013-09-14 Thread Arnold Schmidt
I definitely think that locking the screen helps.  I have my phone set not 
to lock automatically, preferring to be in control of when it locks. 
However, if I go away, come back in an hour or so, and discover that I 
forgot to lock it, the battery definitely is lower than it would have been 
if I had locked it. This is true, even having the brightness at zero.

Hi May,

Mine has been draining more quickly lately because it isn't staying
connected to my wireless.  I don't know if the signal is not as strong 
from
my router, or what is new.  I am hoping that with the new software, 
whatever

problem is causing this will be fixed.  I think that maybe constantly
connecting and disconnecting is draining the battery.

You might try just checking off and on to see if your WIFI is connected. 
If

you see 3G or LTE, you'll know you're not connected to WIFI.

Unfortunately, I don't know of a solution.

Take care,
Lois

Subject: battery drainage found problem

Good day everyone.

First off thanks to everyone that sent in suggestions about how to fix my
battery drainage issue. Well I found the problem but now I'm stumped again
and could use some suggestions on how this possibly could be fixed.

Here is what I discovered today since I have been keeping an eye 
on
what's up with my phone and the battery. After a nice dead phone and then 
a

full charge I unplugged the phone today and headed out at 7:20 yesterday
morning and by 9:30, 2 hours later it was still sitting at 99%. Lets say
maybe around noon I dropped to 95%. That's totally awesome and what I'm 
use

to my phone being like. Ok, so, get back home and we our connected back to
our wifi and here's where we discovered the problem. When I am connected 
to

wifi it's killing my battery. It's dropping maybe 5 to 10% every few
minutes.

So we double checked to see if in actually was the wifi so I now have wifi
off and when I did the battery was sitting at 78% that was maybe around
midnight. It is now 4 in the morning and my battery is sitting at 76%. So
I'm pretty sure now that it is wifi that is killing my battery all of a
sudden.

Does anyone have any ideas on how or why this might be?

keep in mind that this is probably the same issue on the phone I had until
recent. Two different phones, two different carriers.at a lost now.

Re: battery drainage found problem

2013-09-13 Thread Alan Paganelli
I know that when connected to my home network, The lowest I get is a 90 and 
it's usually up around 95%.  I assume other home routers get around the same, 
it's hard to believe that would be the problem.

Hi May,

Mine has been draining more quickly lately because it isn't staying
connected to my wireless.  I don't know if the signal is not as strong from
my router, or what is new.  I am hoping that with the new software, whatever
problem is causing this will be fixed.  I think that maybe constantly
connecting and disconnecting is draining the battery.  

You might try just checking off and on to see if your WIFI is connected.  If
you see 3G or LTE, you'll know you're not connected to WIFI.

Unfortunately, I don't know of a solution.

Take care,

RE: battery drainage found problem

2013-09-12 Thread Thom Spittle
I know that when you have a very weak cell signal, the battery uses more
energy, trying to get a good signal.
Does anyone know if this is the case with a weak wifi signal as well?

 Hi May,
 
 Mine has been draining more quickly lately because it isn't staying
 connected to my wireless.  I don't know if the signal is not as strong
from my
 router, or what is new.  I am hoping that with the new software, whatever
 problem is causing this will be fixed.  I think that maybe constantly
 connecting and disconnecting is draining the battery.
 
 You might try just checking off and on to see if your WIFI is connected.
If
 you see 3G or LTE, you'll know you're not connected to WIFI.
 
 Unfortunately, I don't know of a solution.
 
 Take care,
 Lois

 Subject: battery drainage found problem
 
 Good day everyone.
 
 First off thanks to everyone that sent in suggestions about how to fix my
 battery drainage issue. Well I found the problem but now I'm stumped again
 and could use some suggestions on how this possibly could be fixed.
 
   Here is what I discovered today since I have been keeping an eye on
 what's up with my phone and the battery. After a nice dead phone and then
 a full charge I unplugged the phone today and headed out at 7:20 yesterday
 morning and by 9:30, 2 hours later it was still sitting at 99%. Lets say
maybe
 around noon I dropped to 95%. That's totally awesome and what I'm use to
 my phone being like. Ok, so, get back home and we our connected back to
 our wifi and here's where we discovered the problem. When I am
 connected to wifi it's killing my battery. It's dropping maybe 5 to 10%
every
 few minutes.
 
 So we double checked to see if in actually was the wifi so I now have wifi
off
 and when I did the battery was sitting at 78% that was maybe around
 midnight. It is now 4 in the morning and my battery is sitting at 76%. So
I'm
 pretty sure now that it is wifi that is killing my battery all of a
sudden.
 
 Does anyone have any ideas on how or why this might be?
 
 keep in mind that this is probably the same issue on the phone I had until
 recent. Two different phones, two different carriers.at a lost now.
