Re: Petition?: We need to get HTC to fix this heat/charging issue!!

After not touching the phone for the first 2 hours after pulling it off the charger yesterday, when I lit the screen up it was already down to 80% On my way home from work, the batter was at 40% and I sent maybe 5 text messages throughout the day. I talked on the phone for 1hr and 16 mins and my battery was down to 10% and the warning message was showing up about charging it. After that phone call the back of the phone right under the camera was uncomfortably hot. Last night, I put the phone on the charger after that phone call, when I woke up this morning the phone wouldn't turn on until I soft reset it, and the phone had a 30% charge on it. It seems like it started charging, then overheated and locked up, leaving it with a 30% charge.

I just want to voice my concerns with the batteries in this phone. I hope someone gets this info to someone in Sprint that both can do something about it, and cares to. I want to register my complaint about battery life being nowhere NEAR the 4 or 5 hours it supposedly has. Something needs to be fixed with this phone to make it a viable PDA phone.
