okay so for starters, im going on my second week as an iphone user, this is now my 2nd iphone. ive been to the apple store over 6 times in the last week and a half trying to figure out what the hell is going on with my phone. ive tried everything so far, disabling push and notifications for everything, setting brightness to 15 % disabling cellular data (only way to take my phone off 3g without it disconnecting from all other networks through my provider) location services are off, every thing closed down in multitasking immediately after use, wifi is always off, 1 hotmail account thats set to retrieve data manually, Ive even had them replace the battery on the first phone, and even updated to 4.2.1 still no luck. went back 2 days later and got a new iphone, this one is great on standby , playing music on lock for hours, but nothing more.
So last night i compared with a guy at work both starting with 100%, now also remember my phone is days old, his is months old. Now my phone started off with no multitasking apps open, location off, wifi off, facetime disabled,push and notification off, no bluetooth, and i had my data enabled so i could go through forums and check facebook.
his phone has wifi enabled, bluetooth enabled, 3g, and data, all push and notifications on, 4 email accounts set on retrieve every hour, brightness at 80% , facetime on, autolock set to never, gps and google maps always on
within the first hour i had sent 10 text messages, played 15 mins of angry birds checked facebook once and was already at 77% battery
within the first 4 hours he had been texting listening to audio, watching youtube, watching videos on facebook, browsing facebook, among 15 other sites, showing me different apps he has and turning them on and off ,playing all 3d games , pretty much qualifying himself as extreme heavy user of the iphone and he had finally gotten to 82 % after constant heavy use
by that time i had made 2 calls 3 txt messages 5 mins of angry birds, and about 7 mins of robot unicorn attack, and i was at 55 %, that of which i locked my phone again and left it
after 6 1/2 hours of the same heavy usage on his phone he finally makes it to about 66% when mine is now at 54% from being locked for 2 hours
I dont know what to do... apple wont replace my phone again and they cant figure it out, on this new phone ive even done a full restore, and only loaded 2 apps, from a 100% charge with 2 texts and 15 mins of app usage im at 79% and its logging usage when im not using it and everythings closed fully
