My battery seems to drop pretty fast, and I'm on an iP4. Turned off all my location services except for maps, so we'll see if that does anything.

Berzerker 10-31-2011 08:32 PM

Yea my battery dies quite quickly... usually down to 40% by the time I get off work.

Berz out.

k2_alpha 10-31-2011 08:43 PM

Lol yeah I just bought a new case. Before I used a snap on case with no front protection and now I'm using the vapor chroma red. Gotta say for a case that costs $150 shipped it doesn't offer much protection. It's just all looks lol but I guess I can't complain since akuma_z gave it to me for free

^what is wrong with you?

:seriously:


if you spend that much money, make sure you get a case that actually does what a case is suppose to do; protect your phone.

Simplex123 10-31-2011 10:28 PM

if they don't replace it, you can buy some parts on ebay:

Repair Camera Flash Light Cover iPhone 4G | eBay

Apple iPhone 4 Original -5.0 mega pix Camera w/Flash | eBay

heres a guide to replace:
Installing iPhone 4 Rear Camera - iFixit

not too hard if you have the tools.

For people using iPhone 4S with unreasonable battery drop.

Did you restore from your previous iPhone or started as new?

My 4S showed 15% decrease on standby over 6 hours when I restored my iPhone 4 backup to it. However, the battery life behaves much better when I did a full erase and started it as new (Standby 1 day, 2 hours with 5 hours of usage @ 40%).

Since I use iCloud for contacts and calenders, the only thing that I had to do for the "starting up as new" was to adjust my setting and add back my app.

Here are some of my stuff I turn on 24/7. Wifi, Bluetooth, 3G, Location Service and basically everything that people are saying its draining the battery.

I also did a battery calibration by draining the battery and recharging it to full. If nothing works, then wait for Apple to release a software update. Their engineers have been working with a few selected people that experience the battery life problem.

Is it me of is the 4s battery life sucks my ip4 doesnt drop 15% overnight like this.

so i was wondering if anyone else have the same problem or if its my phone and i should bring it in?

wow your battery drains like crazy. Mine only drains 5% max overnight on standby. Then again, I turned off everything in my notification center.

danny_d19 11-01-2011 12:45 PM

Been running iOS 5 on my 3GS for almost a week now on the semi-tethered jailbreak. Significantly faster than on iOS 4.x jailbroken, and the battery life is about the same.

RiceIntegraRS 11-01-2011 01:02 PM

Im having a problem with my apps. None of the apps i have installled seem to not wanna load anymore, FB, shazam
Ect. I have a iphone 4 with ios5 and it isnt jailbroken. Anyone else have this problem?

kkttsang 11-01-2011 03:36 PM

I dunno if it's because it's new or if it's because it's on it's first few cycles. But I did a full drain and charge hopefully battery will get better

tried 3 nights in a row and always getting errored on the last step to confirm

Groot 11-01-2011 08:29 PM

went on at 9...reserved at 9:02...

insomniac 11-01-2011 08:37 PM

@vansterdam we had a discussion about those cases a year ago in the iPhone 4 thread.
The mophie juice ones arent bad. I'd say it charges at least 50% of your battery? Someone bought the eBay and deal extreme ones and had a bad experience lol the mophie and blackbox ones are pretty good but they leak battery even when you don't use them
I personally prefer the juice pack plus over the marketplace because I hate how chunky it feels. I stopped using the case after 2 weeks lol
