Thanks very much.
I think I may've already ruined my battery pack. Charging from the pack, my phone sputters with its visual signal, telling me it's charging and then lapsing with a net outcome of zero energy addition. The pack itself will accept recharging. But is it putting out?
The phone, last night, charging from the wall, ended up at 96% (from about 12%). I had to fiddle with the connection to get it to take on to 100% charged. I've never had to do that before.
I'm thinking buy a new battery pack as the first experimental test.
Insane you poasted this. My phone was in the cold yesterday for an extended period of time, and it drained from 40 to 0% and shut off multiple times.
I was going to start duck ducking to find an answer, and then BOOM! your poast.
Good job.
My friends with iPhones always have problems in cold weather. They turn off all the time. California doesn't have cold weather, so they probably don't care at Apple HQ.
I never had problems with my Samsung phones though. Seoul has cold winters so they probably put more thought into it.
I'm guessing the people posting here with problems are using Apple phones?
