My 6's having poo poo battery life recently too. No jailbreak. Just did a restart + killed a bunch of background updates and it seems to be doing better but I'll see if it worked tomorrow morning. I normally charge my phone in the evening, sleep with it off charger to use the alarm and check some email if I feel like it. Top if off in the morning. That typically barely makes a dent in my battery but it's been worse and it's draining while I sleep too. I'll go to sleep with it at 80% or so and wake up with a low battery warning  No idea what's causing this. It was fine after the 8.1 update but it went to poo poo last week

Facebook's been only 7% last 24 hours and 9% last week. The worst apps at top of usage now used to barely make a dent in my battery life.

I love how "Notes" is draining 9% of my battery on average even though I've never even opened the app.

Nope, the hard reset didn't do anything. Went to sleep with 80%, woke up with my phone dead. I'm going to swing by the Apple Store later today and maybe try for a replacement device.

Does Best Buy/Walmart have payment plan options for the new Ipads like ATT does?

Cool, my loose iPhone 6 button fixed itself and is perfect now. Since it was an intermittent problem before, I was waiting for it to get worse so I could take it to the Apple store without having the guy go "feels fine to me". Also by fixed itself I mean that after jamming it in as hard as I could over and over again I felt something soft give way and then it was fine.

Looking for advice from 5S users who upgraded to 6 or 6 plus. I'm with Verizon which has a 1 year left using a 16GB 5S. Usually, they would let you purchase a new phone every year at subsidized pricing if you signed another contract but I guess this has changed. So my options are, -Pay in full -'Rent to own' and have upgrade restrictions -Switch carriers/pay EFT/Sell 5S/See how it evens out I'm currently on an unlimited talk/text/1GB LTE for ~$52/month. I'm wondering if upgrading now is even worth the additional cost or if so, how best to mitigate it. EconOutlines fucked around with this message at 23:35 on Nov 15, 2014 |

Alright, this is interesting. I was tired of having my icloud account tied to an email address I never use anymore, so I changed it. Problem is, now I've got another device, my iPad, that's asking for my icloud password... for the old email address. The one that's not tied to any account anymore. I've tried deleting the icloud account completely from this iPad, but of course it needs a password in order to turn off find my phone. How do I fix this? Do I need to reset my account back to the old email just so I can log into this iPad and turn off FMP?

Similar question as the person above. I'm on Verizon via a family plan and want to buy a 6+ out of contract. Is there any reason to not buy the T-Mobile one from the store and activate it with my 5S sim?

Follow up on my restore (removing Jailbreak) in my 6+: It's only been one day since my charge ( well, I unplugged it at 7am and it's now 11pm. (And also I'd characterize my usage today as a tad light, but not far off my previous days.) but I still have more than 50% battery left whereas the last couple of weeks by 8pm it's been giving me a warning of 20%. I'll keep my eye on it.

Saw a Genius today who ran diagnostics on my 6, my battery was fine but for some reason my apps crashed a lot and he was kind of impressed by the amount since it's the highest he's seen. He reset the app settings and told me to wipe my phone if that didn't work.Feenix posted:Follow up on my restore (removing Jailbreak) in my 6+: I went in to an Apple store today for the almost same issue minus the JB so let me know if the restore worked out for you. If not, try clearing your app settings maybe. I don't know Guess I'll see tomorrow how it worked out for mine too

So hey, my wife dropped her 2 week old iPhone 6 on the ground and the screen shattered. Luckily we live close to an Apple Store and got the screen fixed for 109 in just under an hour. The last time I broke a screen was for my Sidekick 3, and was told to basically gently caress off and buy a new phone. It's pretty awesome to be able to do that for a cell phone these days and get it fixed pretty god drat quick.

It seems like the seam between the screen and the shell on the 6 could be better. I've only had mine a week and I'm already pulling little bits of fuzz out that's been pinched between it. I can't imagine how bad that's going to look in a year.

Am I dumb as hell, or is 180 degree screen rotation entirely dependent on app support on the iPhone vs. iPad, where the OS handles it? Now that my headphone jack is on the same side as the charging cable, I actually care about this on the 6 vs. the 4S.

Verizon will not activate a T-Mobile iPhone 6, if you took it to a Verizon shop and asked to establish service under a new account. However, and this really surprises me to read this -- if you had an existing Verizon SIM that was connected to an activated account and put it into the device, it'd work just fine (even with CDMA functionality), according to reports in these support forum posts. This was definitely not the case with the 5/5s, though. But who knows as to whether this is a policy change with Verizon or a hardware/software change with the iPhone 6, and a future business decision from Verizon or a software update from Apple will kill it.

That's interesting, but for the reasons you indicated, I wouldn't rely on it. It's not like you can't buy a Verizon model off-contract.

Is it just me or is there now an emoji button in the iOS Safari search keyboard that wasn't there before? It makes the space bar small enough that I.end.up.entering.searches.like.this accidentally. Any way to turn this off specifically in the Safari search field? I'm never going to search for emoji in a phrase and there are no websites with emoji in the URL.

Finally got a chance to use ApplePay at Whole Foods... did not work as well as swiping my card normally. TouchID didn't work after two tries so I had to enter my passcode. And then still had to sign.

I've only had mine a week and I'm already pulling little bits of fuzz out that's been pinched between it. I can't imagine how bad that's going to look in a year. Yeah, the spaces between the glass and metal on the right and left sides of my phone are just barely uneven, but I can definitely feel it within I run my finger over the gap. I'm not too worried about crud getting into it because I keep a case on most of the time, but after coming from a 4 and a 5c that were both basically flawless, I'm a little surprised by the imperfect fit and finish of my 6. Besides the edge gaps, there's also a tiny sliver of material peeking out from the side of the front camera, making the lens look ever so slightly offset from center. This is also my third replacement phone from the Apple store (the two previous replacements were due to internal issues) and I suspect that it's a refurb, so maybe it didn't come like this from the factory.

Not to be contrary but I've used Apple pay at whole foods all week and all I had to do was tap my phone on the card reader, thumb my print, hit enter on the card reader to use my card as credit and I was done.
