Re: Battery drain since recent update

2015-09-24 Thread Richard Turner 

mary,
I just went through all of my cellular settings and several things were on that 
I had turned off. I have no idea if those would effect battery at all.
However, I also went through Privacy, Location services and there were a few 
more that were using my location "always" that I don't recall setting that way, 
so I set those to never unless I really did want them on.
But, like you, with 9.0.1 it seems that my battery is draining faster.
Now that I have changed several things, I'll see how today goes.
Richard

Thanks, sieghard. Since I am about to get my upgraded 6S, I probably won't mess 
with the network settings here. Interestingly, I also upgraded my iPad mini. 
And it is not experiencing the battery drain. Also, it  did stick around at 25% 
for a very long time this morning. So it could be that the gauge is just out of 
calibration.

Re: Battery drain since recent update

2015-09-24 Thread Andrew Lamanche 
Sieghart,

If you reset network settings in this way, does it mess up your cellular 
carrier settings?  Or does the cellular network automatically send you the 
settings necessary for your cellular connection?

Many thanks for your valuable tips.

I find it's amazing how many problems this can fix.
A while back my wife on her iPhone 6 often had the audio cut in and out when 
she was on a phone call. It was her side of the call which was very crackly and 
sometimes cutting out completely. I did a Reset Network Settings and it's been 
perfect since.

You can, of course, calibrate the battery indicator, just use your iPhone until 
it turns off by itself once the battery is totally run down. Then plug it in 
and charge it for a good long time, best over night. Then do this over one more 
time, use it until the battery goes dead and charge it one more time.


Regards,
Sieghard

RE: Battery drain since recent update

2015-09-24 Thread Sieghard Weitzel 
Hi Andrew,

It messes up nothing with respect to cellular or carrier settings.
The only two things you have to do is reconnect to your WiFi which means of 
course you hve to know and enter the password if your WiFi is protected as it 
most likely is.
Also, if you have changed the name of your iPhone it will reset it to the 
default which is just "iPhone", so you also have to go to Settings > General > 
About and put the name back to what you want it to be.


Regards,
Sieghard

Sieghart,

If you reset network settings in this way, does it mess up your cellular 
carrier settings?  Or does the cellular network automatically send you the 
settings necessary for your cellular connection?

Many thanks for your valuable tips.

Re: Battery drain since recent update

2015-09-24 Thread Christopher Chaltain 
If you have information stored about multiple wifi networks then you'll 
have to readd all of these networks after resetting your network 
connections. This shouldn't keep you from taking Sieghard's advice, but 
it may be a bit tedious if you're frequently connecting to multiple wifis.

I find it's amazing how many problems this can fix.
A while back my wife on her iPhone 6 often had the audio cut in and out when 
she was on a phone call. It was her side of the call which was very crackly and 
sometimes cutting out completely. I did a Reset Network Settings and it's been 
perfect since.

You can, of course, calibrate the battery indicator, just use your iPhone until 
it turns off by itself once the battery is totally run down. Then plug it in 
and charge it for a good long time, best over night. Then do this over one more 
time, use it until the battery goes dead and charge it one more time.

Thanks, sieghard. Since I am about to get my upgraded 6S, I probably won't mess 
with the network settings here. Interestingly, I also upgraded my iPad mini. 
And it is not experiencing the battery drain. Also, it  did stick around at 25% 
for a very long time this morning. So it could be that the gauge is just out of 
calibration.

Battery drain since recent update

2015-09-23 Thread Mary Otten 
I am curious if anyone has noticed as sharp increase in battery drain since 
upgrading to 9.01. I started out with 100% when I did the update. That was 
sometime around noon, or shortly after somebody posted about it to this list. 
It is now 8 o'clock my time, I have certainly not been using the phone heavily, 
and I am already down to 45%. I have not change anything in terms of apps that 
are on our screen brightness at Cetera it could be that my battery gauge is 
just messed up, and long about 20%, it will decide to sit there for an hour or 
so and not change. But I am really surprised at the rapid drop, which prompts

I'd check the settings. Sometimes after a major upgrade, things like 
bluetooth are turned on. I noticed bluetooth was turned on on my iPhone 
5, which surprised me, since I don't think I'd ever use a bluetooth 
device on that phone. Now it could be that I had it on before the 
upgrade, but I'd go ahead and check that and some other settings, like 
your display brightness.
