iPhone Is there a way to disable the Phone and Mail app from running 24/7 on ios6?

How much power are they using, according to that app?

 

I'm sorry, but I don't understand what that means What does that come out to in terms of for instance mA/h?

 

Okay, BatteryDetective measures it in mA. So 69 mA means you'd get about 20 hours worth of usage (battery is about 1 400 mAh).

Is this number an average for the specific app? It seems weird in that case, because it would mean you couldn't have your phone on standby for more than a day before it dies...

 

Turn Airplane Mode on and change the settings of Mail to Fetch manually rather than Push?

So if you charge your phone full, lock the screen and put it away, it will be dead in less than 24 hours without ever touching it?

 

That has happened to me (me wife, actually) once. It turned out to be an e-mail with some error in it that was constantly trying to send. The problem lied in the e-mail account, and not the phone. So once I had removed the e-mail from the outgoing mailbox, battery life was back to normal. Maybe it's the same for you?

 

hi there,

Try to use fetch at max instead of push. are you sure that the mail app is the one draining your battery? i guess is something else you have installed!

 

Well, yeah, if you delete the accounts and keep them deleted for a day or two to see if your battery life increases. Or just empty the outgoing mailboxes in your accounts, nothing is supposed to be there anyway

Another option is to download Xcode and use Instruments to check your phone's activity monitor...

 

i mean use fex new emails at maximum available which is 1 hour or just select manually.

Add your phone, open Instruments, choose Activity Monitor, press record...
