How to calibrate an iPhone battery
Given the fact that a lithium-ion battery is installed in the iPhone, many owners have a question – why calibrate it? Although there is no memory effect, battery capacity decreases over time, which can cause the mobile device to behave strangely.
It can happen that the iPhone no longer “understands” its own battery capacity, which is why it will not correctly display information about the charge level. This can cause various non-standard situations: 30% shutdowns, indicator freezes, and much more.
Calibration Signs
The main features include:
iPhone turns off even when there is percentage charge. That is, earlier in the same state the phone continued to work, but now it has started to turn off.
The battery runs out too quickly. Undoubtedly, this method will help, but you should pay attention to other methods.
During charging, the device “freezes” on a specific figure, and then “jumps” through 20-30 percent.
As a preventive measure, the procedure must be carried out every 3 months for all iPhone owners.
How to act
If one of the signs described above fits the situation, the owner needs to act as follows:
First you need to wait until the gadget is completely discharged. It must be brought to such a state that the phone does not even try to turn on.
The user puts the mobile phone on charge and waits until the indicator reaches 100%. During this period, it is better not to touch the phone, at least not to play on it.
After the screen displays a full charge, the phone must be left connected to the network for another couple of hours. Keep in mind that the iPhone previously incorrectly displayed the charge level, therefore, you should not believe that the phone is really fully charged. You have to wait at least an hour.
After the time has elapsed, disconnect the mobile device from the network and restart it. To do this, you must simultaneously press the “Home” and “Power” keys. Keep holding them until the iPhone icon appears on the screen. In some models, this combination may not work, so you will have to look for additional information in the instructions or on the network.
After the device must be used until it is completely discharged, then repeat the procedure several more times.
You should pay attention to the fact that when starting to repeat the procedure, you cannot charge the gadget for a short time. The scheme must be strictly observed, because only in this way it will be possible to achieve the correct calibration. And then the procedure will be able to bring maximum benefit to the battery of the device. Thus, it is quite simple to calibrate the iPhone battery. The main thing is that the owner of the phone act strictly according to the instructions. In addition, do not forget that the procedure should be carried out every 3 months. This will not only extend battery life, but also save yourself from additional problems.
