iPhone 3g Battery woes..

[cast_no_shadow]

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

mine is 3.0 ever since, pero lately lang sumablay ang battery, siguro sa software nga because everytime i check the usage, it shows ginagamit siya even hindi ko naman talaga ginagamit.

ganyan kasi tlga ang gawa sa mga iphone 1-2 years lng ang buhay para bumili nanaman ung mga tao ng bago.. kaya nga every year nagalabas ng iphone e.. kasama na yan sa marketing nila. kaya ako parang itouch nlng kukunin ko..?? bili kana ng iphone4 o kaya antayin m ung bagong lalabas sa june.. every yr. june ung labas ng mga iphones..

its an external battery for my iphone 3gs. no more worries about running out of juice. maliit lang naman at magaan kaya pwede dalhin at ilagay sa bulsa.

If the iphone's problem is just the battery getting old and needs replacing, having an external battery pack is just like having your iphone on lifesupport, it would not solve the original problem.

Best to have the original battery replaced and have the system checked for suspicious softwares as well.

I have an officemate with a smartphone, he complained that the new battery doesn't last very long. I checked the system and found a virus was active. After he had the virus removed, his battery life improved dramatically.

iPhone din ba ito sir? Baka naman pwede niyo kami iadvice kung paano niyo tinanggal yung virus? Windows XP lang gamit ko and hindi ko mabuksan yung mismong files niya.

Unfortunately its a Nokia Symbian S60 phone. So the solution is not directly applicable to you.

Anyway, the phone's data (address book & messages only) was backed up to a PC then the entire phone was reset to factory which removes all data, softwares & info from memory. After, the saved data was restored to the phone. No additional apps were installed for a few days to check if the battery consumption was back to "normal".
