Any one got any idea the cause of this?
Thanks!
Not really giving you a satisfied answer, but I'm just basing it on personal experience. I owned Rachael before, then Arc, and now Nozomi.
The similarities are, I don't know why, sometimes when I charge them, especially through the stupid mac (no choice cos it is a must for designers to use macs at work -_-), there would be times when instead of seeing your battery bar raising, it is dropping at an alarming rate, and not to forget that the heat that they were generating.
Upon checking battery usage, the results are always the typical registrations, so couldn't figure out why. But seeing that my widgets are running but not registered, I suspected that it's due to stuff that are furiously operating without your approval.
So I did a test by switching off the phone to charge. And sure enough, the phones would begin to charge.
So now I kinda have this habit of switching off my phone for a while when I wake up, then on it again when I leave for work.
Till now this trick works. I even off my tablet when I sleep. Probably switching off background data would be an alternative, but I don't like manual updates, so yeah...
I know there are many claims by users that they never off their phones/tablets at all before, but let's face it - our gadgets are getting sophisticated by day. So they need abit of rest or they'll crack under pressure with so much things going on inside them.
If you like, maybe you can try restart your phone every morning, or maybe in your case, restart/off your phone every night before you charge?
No harm trying right?
