Try to turn on auto brightness and monitor again.

Are you on 8.1.2? I am still on 8.1

I thought auto brightness is not useful? I am on latest 8.1.2

Your has some serious battery drain. Did you do a hard reset and not restore first and monitor battery usage like I told you to?
*
I just done a reset by pressing home and power button. Haven't back up my stuff yet before doing this well mainly just contacts and pictures, apps can redownload. Can machines/mac city/switch check the battery for us?

Err in my opinion for an iPhone 6+ this would be quite bad yawn.gif. Those results are what you would normally get on an iPhone 6 I suppose?
*
Mine was a 6+ that's why I know what to expect from my 6 plus. I actually don't even use heavy on gaming at all. And with such usage really turn me off completely. First iOS device already so unlucky. Sigh. Maybe a 6 battety is inside my 6+.

Thanks for the link biggrin.gif

The instructions and solution to this has been given to you clearly and precisely. If you wont do it there is nothing I can help u out with.

Yea I know what to do after that, thanks anyway. biggrin.gif

QUOTE(attw @ Jan 14 2015, 11:04 PM)
I think they can help check but it could also go the other way: they see your usage and say "Oh, it's normal... Battery depends on usage, bla bla bla"...

But I think if it helps give you the peace of mind, maybe you should give it a try.

Traveling today to some inner parts of east coast where my current network service provider didn't have the best of coverage and noticed that my 6 Plus battery drain was slightly higher, which wasn't unexpected. Still, unplugged at 11.30pm just now and still had 55% of juice when I plugged in it to charge at about 10pm just now.
*
The battery life is good tho, what is your usage for the whole day? They are my last option after I monitor further.

QUOTE(deepan84 @ Jan 14 2015, 11:10 PM)
My 6plus I use like hell. Almost 3hrs straight screen will be on with FB, whatsapp, Safari. Usage time around ur statistic. Anyway don't worry too much bout the battery la. If battery dying, just charge it.

But I have one complain. Battery charges damn slow with the included charger.
*
Yea around three hours to charge because the included charger only 1A, wanna charge faster can use iPad charger with 2.1A, if I am not mistaken.

QUOTE(Pyjamas999 @ Jan 14 2015, 11:33 PM)
Dude LOL I would also advise you just follow what Tomei suggested as it's the most sensible thing to do at least before sending it to machines all. Try la one day see how it goes  laugh.gif .

As for contacts be sure to backup to iCloud and pictures export out to pc first lo if you don't want to lose them.
*
Yea I will monitor further, if after reset everything still same, authorised reseller is my last option. My set got from telco but they told me I can directly claim warranty from those authorised reseller. I don't know true or not. Thanks man.

Well, I only connected the iPhone once to the auxiliary cable in the Nissan Teana, which charged the phone for the short time that I was driving to my client's place. And that's pretty much it, for the 10+ hours! rclxms.gif

Alright, impressive battery life for a 6. rclxms.gif

QUOTE(666devil @ Jan 15 2015, 07:45 AM)
U have leak in AppStore? Why % so high? Pls turn off all the auto updates in AppStore settings.

Because I used to download apps. Already turn them off since day 1. hmm.gif

Hi guys morning, according to Apple Store statistic on iPhone 6 Plus battery life. https://www.apple.com/my/iphone-6/specs/
Talk time 3G 24hours
Internet 3G/4G/WiFi 12hours
Video playback 14hours
Audio playback 80hours
Standby 384hours
But for my case, my data obtained from battery doctor when fully charged 100%:
Internet 11hours 6mins
Video playback 12hours 57mins
Audio playback 74hours
Standby 355hours 12mins
Which in my case, my battery underperform than what being said by Apple if battery doctor is trustable.

Now my 6 plus Bluetooth can't seem to detect any Bluetooth devices around. Already try reboot it and reset network setting still same. Quite frustrated with it edi. Apple products shouldn't be like this.

Seems to me u're having quite some issues with ur phone. First the battery and now bluetooth? Tough luck man

What a luck to begin 2015. Not sure will they claim a new one for me tho. Later gonna go and ask. I show Apple support about the battery doctor stats compared with the one Apple website shows, they also ask me refer to authorized reseller. Sigh

QUOTE(attw @ Jan 17 2015, 12:37 AM)
My 6 Plus detects Bluetooth devices fine but doesn't connect automatically to my car player unlike most of the Androids I owned before. Quite annoying coz I usually get into the car, turn on the phone Bluetooth and it will connect automatically. Need an additional step with this one...
*
My Bluetooth can't even detect anything nearby, and my gf's sis said iPhone Bluetooth only connect iPhone. I was like lol. My 6 plus keep scanning devices but can't get any. When pairing it from my android the connection unsuccessful. I already done a restore through iTunes. Yet still the same. Kinda disappointed with my first Apple product.

Hope you get a replacement unit or something. Sometimes these things happen, all depends on luck. A friend of mine bought a car and it had all sorts of issues even in the first month... And you don't get a one to one exchange for cars!
*
Yea I hope so going to the machines in KLCC soon. But chances of one to one exchange in Malaysia not very convincing. Haha. Weird is mine was telco set and they asked me take to machines I wonder why.

Is it true that iPhone 6/6+ tend to hold charges better or stay longer without any battery drop at 100% than other %? Because mine can last very long when 100%, but yesterday when I sleep is 88% wake up 85% with wifi 3G off, used awhile with 3G then drop to 81-82%.

Machines service staff KLCC told me iPhone bluetooth can only connect to accessories, not for iPhone to iPhone, iPhone to Android or even iPhone to Mac/Window PC. And there are limited cars (most likely more expensive cars) in-built car system can only connect to iPhone bluetooth. Is it true? if it is I wonder why create bluetooth in iPhone in the first place. ==

As long as your car is able to connect device via bluetooth, should be ok just scan , enter code and pair.
The difference is some support only phone call audio and some can support all media audio which can playback song movie app sound etc. Not necessary expensive car.

QUOTE(vostro78 @ Jan 19 2015, 02:26 PM)
not necessary expensive car de... national car also can pair with blue tooth. as for connect phone to iphone. iOS want us to use airdrop  tongue.gif

But my 6 plus can't scan my myvi car audio system lol. Not sure where is the problem tho. I see, never use the airdrop feature, only iPhone to iPhone right?

iPhone to iPad/Mac also can and vice versa.

My car is able to connect to my iPhone as a media device and for calls, but it doesn't do so automatically. Need to manually do it on the phone after I switch on Bluetooth, which is a little bit of a hassle since previously it connected to my Android phones automatically.
*
All Apple devices via airdrop only then. How about the car thing? my 6 plus cannot detect my car bluetooth. How to manually do that? hmm.gif
