So one day the wifi at my house stopped for a few hours and I was quite bored without it. I got my iPhone 5 which may have malware on it and I used its 3g, and I connected my iPad to the 3g connection. I used it for about 20 minutes, the wifi came back on so I stopped using the 3g, I turned off my iPhone 5 and put it back in my shelf. If my iPhone had malware could the malware be transferred from it to my iPad through the mentioned way? Also, I forgot to mention that this happened a few months ago and since I have used my iPad normally and I haven't really found many issues. Today I had a very weird issue that happened to me that made me sceptical. I was helping my cousin with something and he sent me a picture of his English homework. I look at it help him and then throw my iPad onto my bed. After a few hours pass, I try to turn on my iPad, but to no avail, I hold the power button and the Apple logo jumps in front of me. It takes 1-3 minutes to boot up and when it finally does I see 3% left on my battery. In the beginning, I had around 30-40%. This made me worry and that's why I am here posting about this issue. If you need extra detail I am more than happy to provide you with them! Also, one important thing to note is that I just installed the latest iPad update and I will see if anything pops up that isn't support to be there.
All help is appreciated!

Probably all that happened is that some app (likely the app you used to review your cousin's English homework) was left on.

You threw your iPhone on the bed and the app was simply left running and the battery ran out.

Just went through a similar scenario with a family member here. Never (did not) close apps and the iPhone battery ran down very quickly.

Two things: 1) ensure that any app is closed when you no longer need to use that app, and 2) do not throw your iPhone. It will be just a matter of time until some "throw" or "toss" leads to a bounce and subsequent encounter with a hard object.

Will not end well for the iPhone.
