I have just loaded my t68's battery, then switch it off, change the sim card, put it back on, and battery indicator shows red color & times like <100h standby & 1h speech time. Why?

If it's a new phone, it needs to be charged a few times to 'become normal', maybe you have the 'magic word' feature on....
is bluetooth on? Infra red? GPRS?

Just a few things, that may cause the prob.
HOpe they helped

No bluetooth, no gprs, no ir, just switch off and back on. And battery shows red. Phone has been charged 10+ times.

Ok, now I think you should see your Service Centre!!! There is obviously something seriously wrong with your phone

I dont think so-I have the same problem-if my t68 freezes and I have to disconnect battery, lets say 3 times in 5 minutes, standby time drops from max. 230h to aprox. 160h.Same thing happened with my last phones, t39 and r380.cant say why...

Who knows where the catch is?

I got the same problem... When I turn off my T68 and turns it on again... it dramatically loses batery capasity! But I think its software bugs and just will wait until MMS-upgrade are here..

hmm actually... wait until the MMS software upgrade is out
then if Service Point refuses to upgrade your phone
free of charge, explain to them you need it upgraded since
there is a bug with the battery time estamation...
It would even be true P

yeah there is another thread in here discussing battery life reduction and it seems apparent that it is a software bug
