A few weeks ago I installed iOS 7.1 on my iPad 3 device. When using the iPad before, I could easily using it for over 10 hours on one battery load. After the update this was reverted to 3 a 4 hours max. This is called extreme battery drain! After upgrading my iPad to iOS 7.1, while in standby mode with cover closed, will drain from 100% to shutdown in under 4 hours! I did multiple actions to bring battery life back to default, but nothing seems to help. My actions were:
1) Soft restart the iPad, Using the Power button only
2) Double click the Home button and close all running apps
3) Change settings to disable "Background App Refresh" on all apps
4) Hard reset the iPad, using both Home and Power button
5) Bring back the iPad to factory default settings (using iTunes)
In my case option 5 (Bring back the iPad to factory default settings) was the only one which did the job. When using iTunes for that a full back-up must be created first (using This computer & Encrypt local backup). I did a sync off all apps also! Just install iOS 7.1 again (using Restore Files) and do a full restore after that (using Restore Backup). After that iOS 7.1 will be running fine again. Hope it helps!
When connection an iPad (Apple) with a Windows laptop, there will be a message displayed "charging off". This because it's want more power then a normal USB port can deliver (500ma, 5V). New MACs have a USB port which can deliver enough power (1200ma, 12V), but what to do with an Windows laptop?

Because I have a new Jiayu G3 at the moment, which is a really great phone, I think it would be nice to compare all available and upcoming Jiayu phones. This because the G4, G5, G6 and S1 are announced for upcoming releases. Let's have a look at the company first.
You've probably never heard of the brand Jiayu. The company exists since 2009 and focuses on the home market. The company deals with high-end phones. They make phones with good specifications, high quality for a competitive price. The name says it all, Jiayu means [good equipment]. The company does everything in-house.
An Jiayu G3 and G4 comparion and specifications can be found HERE already. Jiayu G4 comes in High Edition and Standard Edition.
Let's have a look at the upcoming releases:
Jiayu G5:
Behind the 4.5-inch display and under the iPhone body, the Jiayu G5 will boast a quad-core MT6589 processor running at 1.2Ghz, 2GB RAM, 32GB of on-board memory, 3 MP front camera and a 13 MP rear camera. The body is said to measure in at just 7.85mm and will come with a choice of either 1850mAh or 3000mAh batteries.
Jiayu G6:
The information about Jiayu G6 is not much. Reportedly it will have a 5.5" screen, carry the latest MT6589 quad-core CPU with full Full HD resolution, oversized battery and stylus support.

The specifications will include a Qualcomm Snapdragon 1.5Ghz quad-core CPU, 2GB RAM, 32GB built-in memory, Adreno 320 graphics and a 5-inch 1080 display with a PPi of 440+. This will be probably my next phone for 2014 :)
