Hello. I just purchased a K750i a few days and I'm quite liking it already. There is a slight problem concerning the battery though, I tried charging it and it was getting on fine (the charging) but it never said battery full or anything like that. I read the User manual and it said the phone takes approx. 2.5 hours to charge fully so I left it to charge overnight but it was still the same. It said battery 100% but as soon as I plugged out the charger, it immediately changed and said Battery 95%. From what I had heard and read, the batter was supposed to last 4-5 days but it isn't even lasting a day. So what should I do? Contact the company I bought the phone from and ask them to replace the battery for me or is there another way around this?
All replies are graciously thanked. |

Try another charger and try the batt in another fone. If u have warranty, visit an se service and u ll get it replaced. Its also possible, that u need a fw upgrade

Would charging the phone with the USB cable suffice for the charge it with another charger bit because I've tried doing that and it doesn't work -- or should I try another charger? |

About the % dropping to 95 immediately, it happens to me aswell. One second its 100% and the next its 96%.
Try another power source. |

Yeah I've a friend who told me that as well, but it's not so much the initial drop in battery that bothers me, it's what happens afterwards. It loses charge by about 5-10% when I, say, listen to a song and climbs up a percent or two when I stop it and consequently the battery is drained after about a day or two.
How long, on average, does the battery last by the way? |

It should last up to 2 days in heavy use. |

I went to the company that I bought it from, they told me turn the phone off, charge it then use it for a few hours and then again turn it off and charge it, which I did but to no avail - it still drains readily. Damnit!

Sorry for the double post but can a K750i user tell me which battery they have; BST-36 or the BST-37?
Thanks.
