iOS 6 iPhone 4s battery drain

Where do you find "Limit AdTracking"? I own an iPod touch 4th generation, so I would like to see if that's helps me.

Thanks

Thanks for your tip my friend, but in my particular I have always been with the Limit AdTracking OFF and my phone is a really piece of s***

I have to charge it some 3 times per day...

settings>general>about>advertising> While you are in the "about" menu may as well turn off diagnostics and usage also set to "do not send"

Settings - About - Advertising - Limit Ad Tracking

You´re welcome

Im sorta suprised that has any or much effect. With it off they you can be targeted with specific ads based on your usage rather than just random ads. So I would think having it off would be worst. But not sure it really makes a lot od difference either way. However kay.kays indicates that fixed it for him so may be worth a shot. I would be more inclined to say the exchange issue caused it and switching off the calendar fixed it. The usage and standby times being the same is indicative of the exchange bug. Removing the email account,rebooting and readdiing it. OR sometimes just disable it and reboot then turn back on will solve it.

As mentioned in my post, I also assumed it to be exchange bug like sbailey4 mentioned. The story mentioned in the post is after I have miserably failed by trying all tricks related to exchange account.

What I also noticed that, i tried to click on "Reset Advertisement identifier ", an entry was logged into "Diagonstic and Data" . As I mentioned before, there can be so many usecases which might be there when handling with a device like iPhone. So may be it worked somehow for me, it might not work for all.

I have my exchagne account back to normal with everything ON except reminders and battery stats are which were shared were exchange account ON.

I own an Ipod Touch 4th generation. I updated to IOS 6.0.1 on Wednesday, January 30th,2013.

Is this bad... I charged my Ipod Today at 3:00PM ET (Well, it finished charging at 3:00PM ET), and then now its 5:20PM ET, and the battery is at 70%?

Is that bad?

I agree. I updated yesterday afternoon. My phone quickly ran out of battery and died. I fully charged it last night at 7pm and it was dead by morning, and I had closed all my apps before bed. Fully charged it again this morning and it was dead by 2:30. My battery was perfect before the update. What's the deal?

Did you happen to read my posts with some possible remedies? Just charging the device wont solve it. The steps I outlined in the 1-5 are a series of steps not try one then the other. Also look at the info regarding exchange email. Those are easy steps and are relatively easy and fast to complete (other than the discharge and charge piece) Failing those a restore would be a good next step and DFU restore as a last option. Both of those take a little more effort but are not prohibitive and certainly worth trying if you are getting poor results currently.

I had 6.0.1, and with the exception of exchange email push causing battery drain, my battery is fine.....in 6.1, it's also fine.....

I don't think it's the battery, I don't think it's the iOS......I think it's one of your apps causing something to be constantly running or even more likely, it is a process that's part of the iOS that's associated with a 3rd party (like the exchange email within the email tool.

even if you think you are shutting everything off, I sincerely doubt you are......dig deeper

Yes I did all your steps last night.. Except for step 5 leaving it on the charger for 1.5 hours. Your suggestion was the first I saw and thought it seemed reasonable. I can try to do it again but I'm not sure if this will work a 2nd time. Do you think I should try again?

No if you did steps 1-5 in order and it made no difference. Although I have heard before folks doing it twice. Did you get the option to set up as new? Also the discharge/charge is pretty important. That is 1.5 hrs AFTER it says 100% not just 1.5 hours. There are 3 steps to charging the iP battery: fas (high current) ,continuous (drops down as a slow charge) , trickle (very low current to finish it off). The meter will report 100% before its completly charged.

Anyway follow that as written. If no help look to restore via iTunes as a next step. And dont restore your backup. That could put the problem right back in. Test it and see how it works.

Don't EVER restore your back up after restoring to 6.1!!! My 4s is running smoothly since then. 1 day 1 hour standby time with42% remaining. Minimal browsing, several calls and messages, location services on and data on (needed for find my iphone) 3g off of course.

And don't UPDATE. Do the RESTORE not UPDATE.

Your mileage may vary. I've restored 5 times and found that while in some cases there was a short-term improvement it was not sustained.
