if everyone so afraid to battery drain fast.
get car charger and compatible charger for iphone.
easily can get RM30+ each at Lowyat for mobiles and accessories.
*
rm30+??i dont think its an original one or quality 1 mate...as u know the quality accessories for iphone is not so cheap mate..n u should know the effect of using local charger or car charger to ur iphone battery...

Is it a myth or fact?

Letting an graphic intensive app running like in my case "Infinite Blade" and locks the phone, my phone seems to be hot and the battery drains faster compare to quitting the app, back to home screen before locking the phone.

Got such thing guys?
*
sure got mate..its a fact..when the apps is not exit/close properly it will use ur battery at the background..u will see the difference when u properly close the apps before locking the phone... nod.gif

i've experienced this problems for past 5months on my i3gs from 4.3 to 4.3.3 (usage time=standby time), so far i still cant find any solutions to solve it. I've tried turn off all the those notification, location, 3g,.... bla bla.. try restore 4.3.3 by download it from different sources, deleted microsoft exhange account from iTunes and i3gs, jailbreak it using different version of redsnow............but it just cant help. No matter how i restore it, it will trigger back this prob. The only step that i hvnt try is to update it to 4.3.4/4.3.5 cos there's no untheter jailbreak.

there must be some bug to trigger it, as my friend using I3gsm 4.3.3 jailbreak using same version JB tool but he nv encounter any prob like i do but i still cant find the solution.
*
agree...it should be bugs problem but yet they didnt know which jb tools cause to this issue... nod.gif

i think facebook app might be the culprit

just now went out after 1 hour after full charged

and I only use whatsapp and fb

however after a while my battery kinds of like draining faster

thou I cant check the usage time because I only turn on notification after some usage after 100%
*
u left ur fb running on the background??surely this is the reason for it..now u see the improvement of ur battery rite?

no i always terminate it... each time i open

it's like a random occurrence  unsure.gif

mayb there's a difference between terminate the fb 1st and off notification later

and off notification 1st and terminate fb app later
*
u r rite mate, im notice the difference when i sign out n killed fb without turn off notification 1st...surely this is the reason for the battery to drain faster than before... nod.gif

When I had my Nokia N8, the apss that killed the battery was Whatsapp. I had to uninstall the app as it was connecting to 3G and trying to download data ALL the time.

Maybe it's the culprit as well for the iPhone 4?
*
how about the difference between leave the whatsapp run at the background with leaving the notifications for whatsapp "on"..which one make the battery drain more faster?? hmm.gif
