I normaly get 310-320 hours stand-by on my T68i, after a full charge, with my Li-Polimer battery.

I normaly get 230-250 hours stand-by on my T68i, after a full charge, with my Li-Ion battery.

hello

I just bought my T610, and it's cool, only the LCD and the built in camera a little weak

I wanna ask about something, i read all the post about batteries, you guys talking about knowing the stand by time or talk time, how to know that anyway ? I tried to click on my volume, but nothing happened, anybody can help me out please ?

THanks

That feature has been removed... btw, welcome to esato.

Feature removed? That's sad news. Nevertheless, enjoy your new T610!

So far my T68i batt (more than a year old) still gives me around 275 hrs of standby life. I just charge it everytime when I'm in my room (overnight) or when I'm in my car, driving.

@* I've heard it's bad for our T68 battery to be fully (100%) drain (power)

here is a tip for P800 users when you look at the battery the othere side then were the text is you can see in the left uper corner a sort of little plastic on the battery that is actually a sticker, don't try to get it off, cause you'll see the inside of you battery and thats not good for it.

Well I bought my T68i two moths ago and the battery level is up to 367 hours so i dont complain

but i also take good care of my battery cause of earlier experiences with bad maintenence.

One quistion the manual says to charge for the first time for app. 4 hours but on the net it says 12-14 hours.. what should i believe. i charged mine for 4 hours and the battery was full...

@MTNT68i

The Phone will stop charging when it's full - on the T68i, rarely much longer than 1.5hrs.

I used to run my T68i battery right down (a real art, not trying to have a dead phone when you're stranded up a mountain!), but now I have a P800, it gets stuck in the synchstation every night! Battery dies - I'll buy another one!

Posted by neo001
i use my phone t68i

for two days and on the second night i charge it up ... is that a good amount of time 2 days ? or should it last longer ... ?

Posted by orang3
it totally depends on ur usage ..

HELP! I got my T610 a week and a couple of days back via courier. I was not at home during that time and my girlfriend opened my phone tried it out. She charged it for an hour or so (or so she says) to get enough power to try it out. Now I have tried "breaking in" the battery per Orange3's post by charging it for 4 hours non stop, and have been running it to empty and recharging it again but it will not last more than 2 days. What can I do? Do I have to buy a new one? My old T39m's battery life is actually currently better than this T610's. HELP! I am desperate... But I love the phone, OH MY GOD. SE got it right this time around!

Girlfriends eh? Don't u just love 'em?!

Posted by kieboy
I think 2 days is the normal life span of a T610 batt. My batt, my friends' batt and my gf's batt all lasts just about two days. (frequent usage, call, texts, wap, theme, games) I think your battery life span is normal.

Posted by Geezay
Thanks Kieboy for the reassurance - I feel somewhat better. Any other users out there support this? Is 2 days "normal" for the T610?

Anyone tried the "Martin Fields Overlay Plus Power Extender"???

Is it actually effective?
