Actually, that battery replacement program covers almost all of 2012. I bought
my 5 in Feb of 2012 and it qualified.

What is calibrating the battery mean?

Let it shut down, then plug it in until it fully charges (such as overnight).
You might need to do that a couple times, but that should help to calibrate the
gauge. Also, you might qualify for a free battery replacement, if your phone is
from late 2012. I don't have the link right now, but google "apple free iPhone
5 battery replacement" and you'll find it. Go to the Apple page for the
program, give it your serial number, and see if you qualify.

Dear all,
So I have updated to 8.1.1 on an iPhone 5 and so far, I am enjoying the
experience until now which is a concern.
Basically, this Sunday gone, I woke up and check my battery percentage and
it was at 28% unlocked the phone and started using it and just like that
Voiceover said "iphone shutting down."
Today, early in the morning my phone was at 18%. As before, unlocked it,
started using it and sure enough the same message came up.
Here are the two things that I'm worried about though.
1. This is a big concern but when the phone shuts down, the only way I can
get it to start up again is to plug it into charge and when I here the two
birbrations, and a few seconds later the phone is on again. Today, when it died
at 18% I waited till it came on again through the use of the charger, took it
off, and sure enough, a bit later it died again around the 18% mark.
2. If anyone knows, why isn't the battery percentage being accurate? Its
got me a bit worried because I've never had this kind of problem before. I just
wanted to know, am I on my own? Fingers crossed, I'm hoping its a software
issue and not a hardware one that is targeted at my device.
If anyone has got any experience on the matter then I would love to know
how you managed to resolve it. If at all.
Many thanks
Daniel
