Battery meter and signal strength issues

These prob arent related, but figured id cover both in one post.

Does anyone have the problem where their battery level is showing the incorrect level? For example, last nite I was on a call, and my battery was showing about half full, and then all of the sudden my phone shut off, due to the battery being to low.

And second, the signal strength meter, on this phone it seems to jump around alot, instead of staying at a constant level. Anyone else see this happening?

Oh and I just thought of one more thing, is there any way to zoom the camera, when taking a full size pic?

You have to use the little menu on the left of the camera view... its a slider... really slow IMHO.
I want a faster camera app for my phone!

This is still a very annoying problem for me and I haven't figured it out. I noticed that the phone will turn off even when there is more than 50 percent battery left. anyone else?

Just this Friday I had flashed one of the ROM's supplied with the Treo Pro Kitchen, and the battery meter isn't updating at all -- could this be it as well? Or is it just WRONG?
