Hi folks, having a problem charging my phone.
When I put the charger in, it shows as charging, but it never charges and stays on like 5 %. Also sometimes when I text it randumly stops me texting after the first word. Has anyone else has this problem?

Welcome to Esato 
Looks like a duff battery by the sounds of it!
Was it purchased new?

Hey mate, thanks!
Yeah it was purchased new. Any ideas how much replacement batteries cost?
Have you also ever came across that text problem? When I take the battery out or do a reset it works for maybe 1 text then goes back to its rubbish.

The texting problem is a weird one, never heard of that one before!
Batteries aren't that expensive on shebay..

No probs Fletch, as jcwhite_uk says - if it's new it should be covered.

Yeah, just called 02. They advised that the warranty does cover the charger or battery. Im just worried incase its errosion damage or something which i'm not sure if it does cover. |
