And here you have us thinking that all you do is stay in your room , post on PPCGEEKS and flash your Pro, (among other inappropriate things)

so i take it sprint users are the only ones that have this weak battery issue taht stops charging while your talking on the fone. My fone can't last plugged in to the ac and talkin at the same tyme without me sitting in front of a fan!!!

I can use GPS and talk on the phone while using a Car Charger (it was a Motorola USB car charger for the V3)... And no the AC was not on...

But I do understand this is a widespread problem... Maybe you should wait to charge AFTER the phone call, that way not as much heat is generated while you have it pressed to your face?

I dont know about that mine charges fine. i think this is an option on the phone though, sorry dont know where it is, but when use it tethering, talking while its on the computer it still charges fine. oh and it doesnt get hot ether

My phone gets warm even if I simply browse the internet for more than 5 minutes. Pretty ridiculous if you ask me.

I guess I'll live with it since it's a pretty cool phone and I don't like any of Sprint's other offerings. I'm not a heavy user so I can get by most days as long as I start with a full charge in the morning.

But with any use of 5-10 minutes, the phone gets warm.... especially around the camera lense area.

My first Sprint TP had the too hot and the battery issues many here experience. I exchanged it after the first 2 weeks or so and the new one has been excellent. Battery life is dramatically extended and never gets close to as hot as the old one did. So don't just suck it up, have it replaced. Multiple times if needed. I know it sucks to have to reload all the hacks and apps, but it's a great phone when you get a good one. Just a shame there are so many not good ones out there.
