7 Hour Battery Life

[Guest kurtfhouse]

Did anyone who upgraded to WM2K3 and end up with a 7 hour standby find a fix??

Just realised today I have it to :cry: , phone was at 100% at 0550am when I left for work and was dead by about 1300pm! I hardly touched the phone either

I mean for gods sake I had 3 days stanby sometimes before! :evil:

Any help gratefully received :D

Cheers

Fully charge the battery then Hard Reset.

I'm getting a good three days in a very poor signal area.

I experienced the same thing.. I had my phone on charge in my car going to work. When i turned it on I checked the meter and it was at 100%. It stayed in my pocket until i left work 8 hours later and it was dead!!

I think if you keep it 3/4 charged, or around the mid 90%'s then it is better, then do short charges regularly.

Cheers, will give fully chargeing and hard reseting a whirl, can't possibly get any worse :D

Hello everyone, my Mot Mpx200 is unlocked and I got it from UK under Orange Operator, but it is unlocked and Im using it right now under Fido Network Canada, here's my question: Will hard resetting locked my phone again to Orange Net. thus preventing me to use it here in Canada?

[Guest kurtfhouse]

Kind of off the topic but, no if its sim unlocked a hard reset wont re-lock it

Cheers Awarner, the hard reset tip worked a treat :D

hello///// about problem battery ccan fix by u master reset for 3 times . after that the battery life come back to stanby 2 to 2.5 day.......

ALWAYS flash- or hardreset your phone with the battery fully loaded. Even plug in the adaptor when you've done some small updates like the GSM-fix.

I have done the update to 2003; and after 3 days my battery is still 60%, its amazing :shock:

[Guest nytehawk2002]

Is it better to charge via USB or Wall Adapter? They both seem to charge to the same point.. Any opinions?

[Guest beersoft]

its best the charge with the wall adaptor, as its a higher ampage or something technical like that

later

Hi,

Can you explain to me where I can find the GSM-fix? I've looked on msmobiles but have not found it there.

thanks

I fully charged my phone, did the gsm update, and i am still only getting about 13-15 hours of battery life. Does flashing the phone many times (like 5-6) have an effect on the battery. If not, what else shoulf I do?

Thanks

I have the same issue.

I applied the GSM fix.

I charged the battery fully and then hard reset. Now my battery only lasts 10 to 12 hours.

I have two batteries. Now i changed the battery to the other one to see if it makes any difference.

I tried to reset when plugged in to main power. I am not able to do it.

Some where i read you need to keep the action button (blue) pressed and then press the power button. But when i do it i just see the menu and the phone powers down.

How do i hard reset when plugged in to mains ?
