Hi hi everyone

Ive just purchased a k810i and im loving it! After some mucking around, ive managed to flash simplified chinese onto my phone using the following:

K810_R6BC002_MAIN_GENERIC_SM_RED52
K810_R6BC002_FS_APAC_RED52
HB1-06_Gen_CDA102568_101_R8A_GENERIC_APAC

However ive just noticed that my battery icon is very very strange:
It only shows 3 states: 100% full, 50% full, and empty. with NOTHING in between. when go into phone status it would then show the percentage of battery left. So for 70% or more, it would show 100% full charge, for anything less than 70% and more than 35%(approximately) it would show 50% full. less than 35% would show totally empty.

What is going on here? anyone else experience this??? maybe its something to do with customization? i guess i can reflash, but if i use the same files, i probably get the same results.

Please help!!!

OMG, i solved my own problem. its all due to a dodgy battery

I got 2 batteries with my phone. one says: made in Japan/finished in china. This battery had nice printed font with good quality finish. its rated at 900mAh
the other made in china/finished in china. This battery looked pretty dodgy and its rated at 950mAh

Naturally i thought the china/china one was fake, how wrong did i turn out to be. Apparently the crappy looking battery is the geniune one!
Can anyone else with a k810i confirm this also? do you have a 950mAh china/china battery?

cheers!

Mine seems to be made in china and has 950mAh. But it's just fine, unlike yours. This is weird.
