iPhone 3g Battery woes..

**cast_no_shadow** · February 17th, 2011 02:51 PM

Since this is the miscellaneous talk thread dito ko na lang ilagay..
ive been using my iphone for almost 3 years, as for me i love this phone na maximize and utilize ko yung paggamit sa kanya. Kaso this past few weeks ive been experiencing my battery is draining unusually like before, as in everyday i need to charge it to think hindi ko na gaano ginagamit at hinahawakan kagaya dati. I turned off everything wi-fi, bluetooth even removed all my applications installed yet wala pa din effect. Pag kasi tiningnan ko yung battery usage it reflects na ginagamit siya all the times even though idle and bihira ko na nga lang gamitin.

Virus kaya? or Sira na ang battery ko? badtrip disposable kasi mga produkto ni steve jobs walang repair/ OEM parts unless pupunta ka sa greenhills para dun ipakalkal kaso i dont trust mga shops dun.

Napatay mo na din ba yung 3g at notification alert? how about yung level of brightness? if yes eh siguro may problem na yung bat mo.

Yung sakin eh 1 day lang din nagtatagal yung bat altho gamit naman talaga sya most of the time (wifi, games, etc.)...

authorized apple care centers can replace batteries, of course may charge... at may kamahalan....

other option is greenhills...

but another option is go get a battery for yourself, then ipa service mo na lang sa greenhills.. may reputable technician specializing on iphone dyan sa greenhills eh... u can get your battery elsewhere also... i think there is ynzal (last time alam ko they sell batteries for ipod, not sure kung pati for iphone meron na rin)...

They don't want to get their hands dirty that's why.

As for the battery, my 3G's battery sucks too. Everynight I charge it, wake up in the morning and 100% na sya, when I finish the day it's always 20% or less.

It used to bother me but now I just leave it - I think it's a software problem. When I upgraded to FW 3.0 that's when it started to drain my battery bigtime, and other users have experienced this too. I don't know if downgrading to pre-FW 3.0 would help, but if you do you can say bye to most of your apps

Ganian din yung akin, akala ko ako lang nakakaexperience ng ganito. Pag idadowngrade kaya sa 2.0 eh babalik sa dati? Sa akin full charge ko before ako matulog pagkagising ko sa umaga almost 3/4 na ang batt. Naka-off naman na lahat. Pinakalkal ko na sa Greenhills at pinapalitan ko na ng batt kaya I think sa software nga.

Talaga nga atang sinasadya netong si Steve na ganituhin ang mga software para upgrade din tayo.

This is what I use, although pricey, I never run out of juice especially during long hours of flight. Combine with my bluetooth head set, never felt bored with my usual 12 hrs travel.

Price: Php 2,650
Availability: All Digital Walker and Digital Hub outlets
