Also .. check your fetch / push settings on your iPhone they will drain power along with any blue tooth devices that your iPhone is keeping in contact with. The new Patch helped quiet a bit.

The latest software update helped me. A definite MUST download especially if you use "fetch" to gather information all the time. To do this upgrade you will also have to make sure you have the latest iTunes version as well.

Since the iPhone 2.1 software update that was released yesterday is in part meant to substantially improve battery life (among other lovely things like *much* faster backups), you might want to try it out and see if it makes a difference, especially if you combine it with the tips on the Apple battery section ohisee linked to above.

I just got the new iPhone a week ago. The battery drains very fast! I am charging twice a day!

I had the same problem and thought something must be running. I was messing around in settings and discovered the "fetch new data" setting. "Push" was on which I assumed meant the iphone checks for mail god knows how many times a day. I turned it off and set it to manual. I've had normal battery life since. I'm going to test setting it to check mail hourly. I would imagine hourly would be better than constant mail checking all day long.

That's really weird, assuming a restore doesn't fix it, methinks it's Applecare time. – Julian, on September 07, 2008 21:09

My phone started doing the same thing: draining the battery flat WHILE PLUGGED IN TO THE WALL SOCKET. Conceivably I could have 10 apps running and all the devices on without the battery running down if it is plugged in. Instead it is in sleep mode with all devices off and it still goes flat.

eh screw it - here's the answer:
if your computer has a wireless connection and you leave your iphone near it, it will drain it quickly, even if you have wifi disabled on the iphone.

You could always try reporting it to Apple via Bug Reporter, though I'd be surprised if you'd get anything other than their thanks if it turns out you're right. – Julian, on June 03, 2008 17:18

If Apple is indeed listening - I may have figured out the cause of this problem and it's not obvious and not anything said so far. Can I get a consulting fee? (Seriously.)

Without any substantive complaints besides "It's a stupid phone" I'm not convinced of your arguments. – Scott, on April 09, 2008 05:54

I'm having the same battery drain problem.
I solve this problem by "Reset all setting" under General.

As a general rule, for any phone, I charge it when I go to sleep. This has worked for every phone (& iPod) I've had for the last 12 years. This way, I have the phone near me at night (in case of a call) and I don't have to worry about when to charge it during the day.

I had no changes whatsoever except bluetooth which I turned off the following night.

Julian replied on March 27, 2008 01:30 to the problem "My iPhone battery drains too much overnight!" in Apple:

Have any of you set the iPhone to auto-check for new mail relatively often or installed any applications, especially ones that might run in the background? I've got push mail and WiFi turned on with it officially checking for new mail once an hour (officially because push mail shouldn't need to check in the same way), and leaving my iPhone asleep overnight hardly hits it's charge at all.

KaiserSF replied on March 26, 2008 15:30 to the problem "My iPhone battery drains too much overnight!" in Apple:

I just started having the same problem. My iPhone was fine for the first three weeks only needing a charge every couple days. Now the last two nights it has been going completely dead after having a full charge. I tried turning off bluetooth last night and still it died. I doubt it's wifi since it was within 10 ft of my router and has never had problems before.

Is there a way to do a hard reboot? I may try restoring it to try it fresh.
