Why Xphone/E200 battery drained so fast? Is it Software?

[Guest piterh]

Review on SPV C500 said that the battery last longer.

I checked the spec between C500 and Xphone/E200, not much difference.

SPV C500 has 200MHz processor & 1050mAh battery, while Xphone/E200 has 132MHz & 1000mAh.

Is it because the software? C500 use Smartphone 2003SE while Xphone use only Smartphone 2003.

And is it possible to upgrade the software from my xphone? I have upgraded the ROM and success.

People.... where can I find the upgrade file (Win Smartphone 2003SE)?

THANKS!

If you have upgraded your ROM on your O2 Xphone / SPV E200, you should be experiencing longer battery life like everyone else :?

You can't upgrade to Windows 2003SE at the moment :)

I have upgrade my Xphone ROM.

Well, I never compare old ROM with the new one, because once I got the Xphone, I upgrade it instantly...

But I still feel that the battery is very very weak.... :)

If only there is a Windows Smartphone 2003 SE upgrade.....

How long does your battery last for? :?

'SD Switch' might be a good option if you've constantly got an SD/MMC card in your phone. I used this prog before I did the ROM upgrade and it helped a lot!

I use my xphone only for a day, at the night I have to charge it!

I use it for regular call, SMS, playing little games, synchronize with PC, managing files, etc.

gvr, where can I get the SD Switch program???
