Battery drains quick from 60% to 0% when using phone on 3g

Wilmerin — Mon, 03 Aug 2015 23:18:19 GMT

Help me to get rid of this issue: The phone works fine when iddle. But if I use any application that need mobile data conection, the battery % decrease at 5%/min or higher. Sometimes it turns off suddenly. If the network conection is set on only 2G, works better. But sometimes need 3g to get faster download speed. Is there any solution to fix this? Regards

3G will drain your battery faster then 2G, double check if there's poor network coverage in your area, also go to

settings > battery > check what has been using up your battery. If you are syncing multiple apps, accounts, etc, it will drain faster.

Thanks!

I don't think is a problem of 3G, because it happens in few minutes, sometimes in secconds that the drain is very fast until it turn off. Also, there is good signal. Other phones work well in the same location.

I'll wait for some other responses.
