Smartphones blackBerry 3G signal is originally from draining the battery on my bold 9700

Hi all

I don't know if anyone could say this already in the forum. I found nothing when I searched keywords.

Drain the battery of my bold 9700 seems to be caused by the 3G signal. I know it sounds weird that a signal could cause such a thing.

With the signal 3G on my battery lasts for 15 minutes at the most. I'm not a hardcore user, I just check my mail and tweet (not all day - some of us have a job to do and may not be on twitter every 2 seconds). The phone would just stop (I don't mean it restarts and I don't get the message informing me in that battery power has been drained).

I've done the things suggested. I reinstalled the operating system and I went in the distant downgrade the OS OS5, but the question always remained. I've since upgraded to the version of OS6 2949 (latest OS for this phone). I also uninstalled all applications check the cause of the problem.

My last resort was to disable 3G and don't stay in 2G and in doing so, my phone battery can now last a whole day.

If I want to use 3G, and not have my phone die on me, I have to put it on a charger. Basically, the phone becomes a landline.

This could be a possible solution for anyone experiencing the same problem.

BTW, I've had this phone for almost two years now and I left still completely applications every time I have stop using them, that they are never active in the background.

My phone details:

Model: 9700 "Bold"

Carrier: Vodafone

OS: version 6 2949 (I think it's the latter)

    Hello and welcome to the community!

    Based on your description, I would deduct low or weak signal from your mobile service provider. Digital devices to modulate their energy consumption depending on the strength of the signal they receive from the Tower of the carrier. Low quality/signal strength, higher battery drain. For good check, you need to contact your mobile service provider, because it is the network, which is the cause. It is possible to have a few problems in the areas that you are in.

    It will take several attempts to get the combination of keys ESC (press/release/hold) OK, so be patient. When properly in Safe Mode, see what happens.

    If the behavior continues, then well... think what happened just before this behavior started? A new application? An update? A theme? Something else? Think carefully that the slightest change can be causal... and try to undo all that was.

    But if the behavior continues mode without failure, you may need to consider more drastic measures - WIPE, OS Reload, BBSAK Wipe/Reload and the process of reloading OS 'skeleton '. To prepare, you should be sure that you have a full backup of your PC... Please see the Backup link in my sig auto on this post for instructions.

  • BlackBerry Smartphones BBM drains the battery without the use of telephone (proof)

    (I have a PRIV BB running the latest update of Marshmallow).

    BBM drains the battery.

    I took my PRIV off lunch charger yesterday and weather scheduled 7: 00 the next day morning, that the battery has been completely drained by BBM.

    NOTE IMPORTANT: I did not receive all the BBM messages during this time - sent no BBM messages during this time - didn't even open BBM Meanwhile - didn't even use my phone during this time (I just left it autour sitting in the living room)

    Function checking the battery charge shows that in this period, BBM consumed 40% of my battery (the order of the day closer to you that consumed power was Android OS, but only 8%)

  • (Redirected) Reference DELL 5547 Fan starts while that closed down and drains the battery at 0%, especially may not wake from sleep

    Hello

    When I turn off my laptop the fan starts to spin then and during a night, it drains the battery from 100% to 0. I also have some problems of marketing. If the computer is in sleep mode itself or by me, I can't wake up, need button for 10 seconds and then push again and it starts. When turned on, it works perfectly but has these problems. I read somewhere that the resolution of these problems has been to remove the software intel from my computer and I did. It helped but 2 days computer started having these problems again. My system is Windows 7 64 bit. This problem started after that I have somehow left fully charged computer asleep on the charger for about 2 hours. When I came back fan was spinning and the right side of the laptop was hot. Again, battery life is great and computer has no defects during the work (all tests by dell are passed). What can you suggest me to do?

    I use my MacBook Air as a desktop computer. Should I leave the charger plugged all the time or should I drain the battery and then recharge? What is the best for the battery?

    Keep the computer plugged in whenever possible.

    If you keep the computer always connected, make sure that at least twice a month

    Run it on battery until battery charge level falls to about 40-50%.

    Please don't completely discharge the battery. Discharge the battery completely will reduce wear and tear on the battery.

  • Mail application drains the battery on the iphone 6 (iOS 9.2)

    Hello

    Since the 9.2 update my apple mail app drains the battery really fast. It has 3 accounts (outlook, apple, imap) and tried to extract emails not to push but did not help. When I check in the menu of the battery in the last mail 24 hours with 2 min on screen + 2 min backgroud used 17% (this is equivalent to Facebook 28 min 45 min phone used only 9% or + 22 min back). I tried other email applications, but for me, this one is pretty good and does not want to use another app for something I already have. Is there any solution for this or should I wait for an update of the software?

    Thank you

    Have you tried force reboot the phone by holding down the button sleep and home for 10 seconds, until the Apple logo comes back again?

    You won't lose data, but it can cure some problems after installing new software.

    For some users, deleting the mail account and adding back once the phone reboots worked, especially when you use an exchange account.

  • Drain the battery... need some advice

    I have an application that runs in the background and runs at every 15,30,60 min based on what the user has configured for. I made a quick call to a Web site gets a little info and then farm the connection. I have a realtimeclocklistener to track the number of minutes configuration is passed since the last update.

    The problem is the same when it is updated every 60 minutes just, he sits there and drains the battery life. Also the connection arrows top right will go up randomly even after that he made the update. I don't know if it's just consciousness or if that is the question.

    Here is the code I am accounting for the data

        public void retrieveData(){

    I watched a lot of samples and other code online, and I don't see anything wrong with my code.

    Any help will be much appreciated.

    That everything seems OK to me.  I would be very surprised if this empty code battery a lot, especially if he did invoke every 60 minutes.  Sure that it does not have anything in your RealtimeClockListener you treat?  Also makes the Thread performing the closing down?  It would seem that you could drive this treatment completely out of the RealtimeClockListener, just start the Thread when you want.  If you did that, then I think that your application would have a minimal impact on the battery.

  • Emails from Smartphones blackBerry, pines, text messages disappears from the device

  • BlackBerry Bold 9700 smartphones keep closing and drains the battery.

    I'm new to this forum, so if this problem has been discussed and resolved, I apologize. My Bold 9700 guard dying and closing unexpectedly. It takes forever so he can start up (flashing red light).  Sometimes I even remove the battery to get a reaction. When the loading bar ends & comes back from the screen, the battery is completely dead, even if it was at least half full before that happened.  BTW, this has happened several times with my old battery so I bought a new OEM battery.  It's happened twice since then.  Stranger still, when I was with a friend today, his "BOLD" does exactly the same thing.  That is what it is?

    Your phone is obviously having software problems.  As such, you must reload the operating system of your phone.  Any other suggestion is just going to skirt the issue; You must get the brain of your charge phone.

    To do this, connect your phone to your PC and open BlackBerry Desktop Software.  Click the device in the upper part of the software and then update.

    If your phone does not connect to the BDS, take a look at this article from RIM:

    Looks like something is corrupt, as wipe you it I loaded the OS to a newer version if possible.

    Manual device OS upgrade instructions:

    1. start by searching for your operator and the system operating file that you want to use.

    http://NA.BlackBerry.com/eng/support/downloads/download_sites.jsp

    2. make a backup of your device first, using Desktop Manager > backup. Close at the end Office Manager and disconnect it from BlackBerry. Get DM here http://us.blackberry.com/apps-software/desktop/

    3. download the OS files to the PC then install on the PC by running (double click) the downloaded file.

    4. go into c:\program files Research in motion\apploader and delete the file named "vendor.xml."

    5. This step is not necessary unless there is a problem on the next steps. Use BBSAK from BBSAK.org and wipe the device (after doing a full backup), then after you get the 507 error (no OS installed) then proceed to step 6

    6 remove the internet connection for PC and reboot the PC.

    7. plug the BlackBerry and double-click on "Loader.exe." It is located in the same place as the above vendor.xml file was in.

    8. If you did step 5, restoration of the back upward. Follow this KB if necessary http://www.blackberry.com/btsc/KB10339

    Take advantage of the new operating system.

    Now version 4.7 is here I wonder if its worth the upgrade again risk\hassle.  I can't find anywhere what are the differences (RIM should not publish some sort of version list?).

    So, what is the opinion of the Blackberry customer support forums?  Is it useful for some new features or bug fixes, or do I have to take the attitude "if it isn't broken don't fix"?

    Just to clarify things. It's not Blackberry forums 'customer support', but 'the support of Blackberry' community forum. This means that we are the only guests like you, but if we can, we answer questions. There are very few representatives of RIM here on the forum, and they respond on rare occasions.

    I know from reading the internet:

    • 4.7 = 4.6 + storm is supported
    • 4.6 = 4.5
      • + "BOLD" is supported
      • + able to save internal memory media files (no = no need Roxio Media Manager)
      • + Media Sync is included (instead of separately, download the iTunes sync)
    • 4.5 = 4.3 +? + very slow synchronization of events
