Major Battery Issue!

So I charged my phone last night to full capacity and used it all day today, now I was talking on the phone for an hour and got the low battery warning, so I put it on the charger and continued to talk... After about 10 minutes the phone cut off the call because of no battery. This is ridiculous! The phone doesn't charge fast enough before the battery dies? Has anyone else had this problem? I don't see why the battery would drain faster than the charger can charge it, my POS Samsung A900 from 3 years ago could handle a phone call all day if it was stuck to the charger.

Unhappy Re: Major Battery Issue!

Well I wish I could help but after taking my phone off my charger at 8am this morning, and not really doing much on it but texting and had a few quick calls using my BT headset, my battery was drained by lunch time. My old refurbished Mogul which has been drained and recharged a hundred times can last longer than that when having used it way more than that.

Re: Major Battery Issue!

I know this has been said a bunch of times, and YMMV, but my battery had a pretty horrible life span on it until I let it completely drain out and recharge to 100% a few times.

Re: Major Battery Issue!

not an issue... sounds about right =)

From my research...lithium battery should not have a memory effect. Generally it's best when kepted charge and don't allow it to fully power off.

Re: Major Battery Issue!

If the phone goes in and out of the network ( to roam and back to network) this will drain the battery. Also if programs are running in background. I have discovered these to drain battery life fast

Re: Major Battery Issue!

If wifi is on and I take a call or to and maybe look at a youtube video I am at low batter by lunch time. Wifi seems to be the real killer. I get evdo at home so I'll stick to that if possible.

Re: Major Battery Issue!

I dont get how the battery can die when you're on the phone WHILE it is on the charger?? This phone is supposed to be the latest technology and it dies while charging? WOW...

Re: Major Battery Issue!

I've also had the phone die while on the phone and charging. Not much you can do about that, hate it.
