hi. I've a problem with the battery page in "settings": even after 2 or 3 hours with wifi enabled, the indicator still show that battery is @ 100%... impossible, you know. what to do? i must change it with another one? i bought it 3 days ago...
not impossible...
the battery indicator as 10%steps.. it means that if your battery is at 91% it show 100%!
then if you are well covered with your wifi signal in 2-3h is possible to use only 9% of your battery...
great. grazie!

Battery Woes with 3200mah Extended Battery
I've purchased a 3200mah Extended Battery and the battery meter seems to be weird. The battery charges fine up to 100% and drains perfectly normal. However, at around 30%, the Low Battery Notification pops up and after around 2-3 minutes, the battery meters shows 2-5% of juice left.
Any suggestion on what I should do? Is the battery faulty or is something wrong with the calibration of the metre? I used to have this problem when using extended batteries with my IIs (Blue Angel).
UMTS Observation
I noticed when you connected the Universal to the wall charger, the signal strength will be stronger as compared to when the Universal runs on battery. I suspect the chip decrease its transmit power while running on battery so as to save juice.
Anyone can comfirm?
anyone have any ideas?
Where did you buy your battery? How long before you noticed this problem? Was it like that ever since you bought it or could it be another memory effect problem (plugging usb when battery is half full)?
I got my battery from a retail shop in my country. It states 'Dyna' on it, and i presumed it is legit, following a line writing 'Made in Japan, Assembled in Taiwan'. If i'm correct, the original battery is also manufactured by Dyna.
I first noticed the problem the very first time my battery drains. I did another test yesterday, and the battery drains linearly to 19%, the warning 'Main Battery Low' appears and it shuts down, not rebooting even when i press the soft reset.
However, when i plug in the AC source, the battery meter shows 2%. Where did the 19%-2%=17% of battery go to??
I doubt it is a memory effect, as I've done a few complete drain and the problem persisted.
There probably is an inherent problem with the battery... is that still under warranty? maybe you can have it replaced... good luck!

DO A SEARCH FOR REGISTRY WIZARD it has a feature to turn off gprs, but i do not know why you have a g when most networks have edge you should have an e for edge. What wireless provider are you using
and if the g is displayed but you do not see two arrows moving that means it is not connected.
you can also do some minor tweaks like dimming the screen and making the phone hit standby mode quicker this will save battery life
start>settings>system>backlight

Did you charge the phone as per the instructions or did you rush to use it after a short charge?
When you get a new rechargeable battery, you should charge for about 16 hours then let the battery run down to nearly empty (under 10%) then charge again for 16 hours. This should be repeated 3-4 times. This way you fully utilize the battery.
Most people however charge the phone for about 2 hours or until the 'fully charged' alert come up then use the phone. Typically the phone will only last a few hours and they charge again for an hour and the life of the battery only ever grows to a day or so.
I followed the above 16 hour charge fully discharge process and my battery still lasts for 3 days with moderate use.
Also note that the 'G' on your screen in GPRS and not GPS. Check out the difference between GPRS and GPS here:

You will find turning off GPRS will make little or no difference to battery life. I'd guess you either have a bad battery or you didn't charge it according to the manual.
Hello,
Sir like many others, I too have a battery problem with my SPV M3100
The battery always shows it's status in the 10s. Which means like..
90%, 80%, 70%, ...
It never shows up something else then tens which is not really good.
The second problem. If the battery is 100% charged, I open WIFI in few seconds it will drain to 90% and 80% and then 70%.. It drains really very fast. I know that WIFI eats up the battery but not like 10% in 1 minute???
Third problem, If I keep my mobile 100% battery on stand by mode and I don't get a call. After 24 hours I go and see it will show and battery left 100%. But if I go and do a small task in mobile, it will drain like 30% in once. That is quite ammazing I have never played on music so can't say how much it drains while playing music on hands free.
Overall on standby mode, the battery lasts like 3 to 4 days. But if you use it for even a small thing, it drains really fast and battery was dead.
Please help, I think this all is not normal, Radio version can be the reason of this???
Thank you very much
Faisal
i have too this problem, if you find any way for solve this plz help me
I have the same problem..
Even when I go online with GPRS/3G/UMTS/HSDPA..
Does the problem come from the battery?
My battery has UTSTARCOM text on the battery. How about you?
EDIT : You need to flash a ROM with a 1% increment fix, it's because the stock/official ROM has 10% increment battery meter, I don't know why.. And my battery drains very fast because I have over-charging it.. I leave my Hermes charging overnight when I'm sleeping, and it leads to over-charging.. You need to unplug the charging cable when the charging complete ASAP..
I have the same problem on my Spv m3100. The power meter deplete at 10% increments. Unlike my HTC TyTyn 2 - Kaiser this shows actual units.
Hello for now.
I have the problem since yesterday, my battery indicator that spins around, I've lost 20% in about 15 minutes, this can not be. I have this rom on it:
So today I had the wireless on accespoint and set the backlight to 30 minutes, last week I lost about 3% according to battery indicator, so today there are around 50% which has no vote, ne option because someone what the normaliesiert again? Auserd shows are now the problem, it depends on who shows the battery charger indicator 59% of whom I Disconnect the cable goes out immediately and report the tab empty battery.
Greeting Conan
My battery is draining like crazy when IAM not using my phone iam losing like 5% an hour. every morning i found my phone switched off even though I have 50% battery left while I go to sleep here's the strange part it works completely normal if I continuously used my phone for 2 to 3 hrs straight
