I don't have if any of you have this problem, but when my phone's indicator says 0h0m of talk time, i can still talk for a long time, and even go on standby for 10 straight hours! After I've upgraded to R6A, the problem seems to be better.

When I recharge the battery, the phone will not start from the beginning of red but starts in the middle. Just wonder if any of you have this problem....

I usually charge my phone only when i get the red light....

the imitation batteries mimick in every sense, look and feel of the original...most likely way to tell them apart is from detail scrutiny of the warranty sticker on the battery...nevermind!! i think the best way would be to check with your nearest SE dealer and haf the matter sorted out....

Well.....with R6a firmware, when the battery indicator is 0h0m, it actually would go dead in less than 2 hours. Much more accurate than previous T68m firmware. So nothing to worry about.

With regard to when charging the meter starts from middle, I too noticed such things but as long as the battery holds charge....nothing to worry about as well........Its common things.......nothing to concern you !
