Evasi0n jailbreak iPhone 5 battery issues

[chucknorris666]

Done my iPhone 5 last week and since then my battery seems to be draining fast it don't even last half a day now, anyone else having these issues, did have a load of tweaks installed but took most of them off now and battery still draining fast, any ideas???

i have noticed a battery drain on 6.1 with my 4s and also my gf one as well mayb an issue with the firmware.. have you tried any ios forums?

[chucknorris666]

Yea mine drained when I upgraded to iso 6.1 but when jail-braking its twice as bad have to charge 2 times a day.

[josh_g]

hmm, thats no good. try running the phone is safe mode (disables all packages) and see if its any better or just a fresh install and jailbreak again. if you have sbsetting worth checking what process you have running that are draining the battery. d you have backgrounder that is keeping a high usage app running?

[davew1]

mine started doing it the other day... so i removed the app or tweak i had installed last. once i'd removed it all was good again.. 3G unrestricter seemed to be the culprit on mine

Yes. Battery drain on mine too, but I put it down to my animated live weather lock screen.

I made a post on the forum the other day about Vodafone recomending its customers stay away fom ios 6.1 because of these issues.

Yep... for the 4S and there is an update out 6.1.1

There is also word that it fixes some WiFi issues, so may become a general release.

that was to sort out the 3g issues. i upgraded and the jb still works with it lets hope every one else is as lucky when they do a wide spread release

let us know the out come of that.. maybe worth having a day or two without the JB and see how the battery life is just on 6.1

[chucknorris666]

Ok buddy, will let yous know how it goes, suppose I could live without a jail break for a few days :0

When I was on 6.0 with no jb the batter life of my iPhone 5 was brill, use to go a full day with medium use and still be on 60-70% but upgraded it 6.1 and I noticed it drained it more as with same use I'd be on 20-30% but after jb I'd be down to 20% just after half a day :(

[josh_g]

I came from 5.1.1 and now on 6.1.1 and i notice a battery drain but i am a heavy user

[chucknorris666]

Can confirm that my battery is a heck of a lot better after restoring, going to leave it like this for a few days then jail break again

then it must be a tweak! although i have herd on other forums that 4g drains the battery rather quickly! i am having an annoying problem with APPs when i respring -_-

[chucknorris666]

Don't have access to 4g where I live so carny be that. Could be a tweak gana jail break again tonight and try and find out what is draining the battery

[chucknorris666]

Gave up on jailbreak because updated to 6.3.1 and Appel seem to have fixed the battery issues only used 1% since 7am

[josh_g]

Ahhh what a shame, a colleague of mine is having issues with his Iphone 5 unjailbroken with battery drain issues

[chucknorris666]

Tell him to update it to the new software seems to have sorted mine out. Well so far so good :)

[chucknorris666]

The latest one is 6.1.3

he is on 6.1.3 and it is still giving him issues

[chucknorris666]

Hmm strange maybe he should give them a call as mine seems fine now... Well until I jailbreak again :(

[josh_g]

is booked in to get it swaped for a new one

[chucknorris666]

Just make sure they give him a new one as they try an fob you off with refurbs all the time
