Hello,

When I bought my T300, I noticed that the back cover (covering the battery) is a bit loose. It can be annoying when you type an SMS or MMS).

Later, I read in a magazine that all T300's have this little problem. So, it wasn't just mine

If you would like to fix it, just take a piece of paper and fold it a few times and place it between the battery and the cover. Make sure you can still close the cover without having to put too much pressure on the cover.

Normally, the back cover should be a lot better now Well, at least, for me it worked...

The one i am using has a loose battery cover while my fren's unit just fits perfectly well in place
last week i took a piece of paper, fold it once only and slip it between the cover and the battery and it's firm and neat now
Anyway does the battery stay firm even after the battery cover is removed? My battery shakes after the cover is removed and hence the my T300 turns off after the battery went out of position.

Yeah, I have the same problem. As soon as I take the cover off, my phone goes out. I guess it's normal, because the pin of the battery and the pin of the cover, both click on the same place...

Funny a previous poster mentions Nokia I had to pull the same trick there with my 6110. The battery always came loose, untill a piece of paper held it in place

I know it's not the best solution, but everyone has some paper in the house, so it's a very small effort

i was saying about the old nokia concept in the battery problem.They use the same concept in the last 5 years (begining with 6110) where th battery slips downwards and there's nothing u can do!! U can slip the paper or the moose i was talking about but why did they need 5 years to change a bad concept?! In my opinion neither the cover solution is better! I need a firm battery,not a plastic squicky cover damn it!
