How to improve the iPhone 4S Battery

[defoekeane]

According to Apple user guide, the taskbar that appears after double clicking the home button just displays recently used apps, not "apps running in the background" (as you suggest)

I don't have FB, twitter or any other similiar account. I don't stream hotmail or anything else except weather. I listen to music and sometimes I stream music from internet radio for about 2 hours daily. I like listening to music aswell which I transfer over to phone. I use internet to check bus schedules and things I need for moment I am in. So my QUESTION IS: for how long can batteri hold for my needs? What do you think? 2 days? I need help from you guys since I want to buy this phone.

[BenRichhards]

Is it just me or does music only come out of 1 of the 2 speakers on the bottom

what apps did you use to know your battery percent?

[cogswellpaul]

@o0oskyleo0o U go on general or sumthin like that but its not an app

[LilWayneDwayne]

@o0oskyleo0o To know the battery percentage of your iPhone, go to:

Settings>General>Usage then turn on Battery Percentage.

[o0oskyleo0o]

@LilWayneDwayne ok thanks..

[LilWayneDwayne]

@o0oskyleo0o no problem

[roloboy97]

what does turning of the contact thing do?

[rinkelk]

Seen this all over the place; forums, youtube, etc...

It's all very trivial and doesn't take away the real issue. This phone WAS able to go for about 2 days with all those features turned on, as they should with a proper smartphone. Would have bought a dumb phone.

So, the 4S have the side effects of true multitasking but without actually doing true multitasking?

Right when i go and get my ipod, it says iOs 5.0.1 is availible for download. :)

[MalcolmsonStudios]

A new software update (5.0.1) is due really soon :) Check Engadget - It's on there!

[morphinglight]

Stupid question but how do you turn off 3G on the 4S?

[mitch625]

@morphinglight I was looking for that feature earlier, but i don't think you can turn off 3G anymore, however you can turn off cellular data. Crazy!!

[DeathBySnoooSnooo]

Whats the point of having the features if you have to turn them off, lol. No problem at all with my 4 on iOS5

[GadgetSuperHero]

@mitch625 On my phone, the Push Notifications are the reason the iPhone 4S battery's sucked.

how to save battery:

get your iphone

go to siri

say: please stop wasting my battery

you will then be replied with an awesome comment and a great tip

[LilWayneDwayne]

@Iphoner3000 There is no great tip.

[spontanp]

turn off wi-fi and 3g (or at least one of those)  if you are not using internet... 55% battery life boost

[deco0795]

Hi mitch625, are you on bill pay or prepay

[mitch625]

@deco0795 Im on a 12 month prepay. How about you?

[deco0795]

@mitch625 i am on bill pay

[JSantana319]

Thanks for the tips. Another thing that can help with your battery life is turning off Bluetooth.

[heartSLB]

I've noticed that contact sync bug in iTunes 10.5. I hope it is just a bug and they will fix it and that it is not the way they're going with all this iCloud business. I have iPod Touch 2G and obviously my device don't support this stuff so I'm with no contacts in my device and I can't send emails. Sucks big time! I'm angry!

[mythgard]

Another great video. Thanks for the tips. The "Raise to Speak" tip from another commenter is also a good tip!

[mitch625]

@mythgard Never thought of that one. I bet that one does waste a tonne of life!

[liamgreen94]

YEY!!!> We are both on Vodafone.

[ad3jp]

Ooo never thought about the time zone one, nice one!

[leesonrider]

Don't forget to turn the brightness down and that will save loads of battery as well

[SoulMakk]

Also turn off General > Siri > Raise to Speak. Otherwise the Proximity sensor is constantly searching.

[earlbee31]

Sound that !!! I will try it now 👍📱👍📱

[Jamz006]

[doctoroo1]

[OPswag]

Great video Darryl!

- It's great to see videos from you again, keep posing! :)

[AndrewParkerTV]

Great info!

[SupaSneakyChopsticks]

Another great video! You forgot to mention turning off Push Notifications, though.

[mitch625]

@SupaSneakyChopsticks Weirdly i found that they didn't affect the battery life much :O

[7showler7]

MITCH! HEY! :D
