Oh no! We are sorry to learn of the battery issue. Let's look into this. When did this start? Did the software recently upgrade?

The battery can be fully charged and it drains very quickly

No worries SETSIL47, we will be sure to get to the bottom of this. How long would you say the battery lasts after you unplug it from being fully charged? Is there any physical and/or liquid damage to the phone?

From Full charge to 1% in less than 15 minutes.

it sometimes just up and dies even with a charge of any amount on it. When that happens and I try to turn it back on it shows a dead battery. I usually have to plug the charge cord in to it to get it to turn back on and when it does come back on it shows whatever charge amount was originally on it when it died ( it’s done that with as much as an 85% charge)

LARWEB71,

 

 

Having your battery drain this fast is quite concerning. Let's review some things so we can figure this out. About how long has this battery draining problem been happening for? (A few days? A few weeks?) From the descriptions below, would you describe yourself as a "Heavy User", "Moderate User" or a "Light User"?
