Plan B Posted March 2, 2011 Share Posted March 2, 2011 I just bought this phone but people have told me it is a poor phone. The battery hardly lasts 20 mins. Does anyone know of a reliable place to buy a new battery for it? Thanks in advance Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hartley Hare Posted March 2, 2011 Share Posted March 2, 2011 20 minutes? Are you sure it's charging fully? My wife's got one, the battery on her phone lasts at least a couple of days. Have you tried turning the wifi and bluetooth off? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boycie Posted March 2, 2011 Share Posted March 2, 2011 20 minutes? Are you sure it's charging fully? My wife's got one, the battery on her phone lasts at least a couple of days. Have you tried turning the wifi and bluetooth off? Are you telling him to turn it off and on again? Did you charge it for 16hrs first charge?

Day Posted March 2, 2011 Share Posted March 2, 2011 If it only lasts 20mins after a full charge I'd take it back to the shop, shouldn't have to buy a new battery and it could be a software problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Plan B Posted March 2, 2011 Author Share Posted March 2, 2011 Took it to caphone warehouse and got a new battery so Im going to leave it chargeing for the night. I bought the phone second hand from CEX because it was unlocked and they said I had to be 18 to get it from an proper phone dealer :mad: Iv been 12 before and bought a new phone. Cheers for the help and Ill keep you updated lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plan B Posted March 3, 2011 Author Share Posted March 3, 2011 should you not have asked these questions before you bought the phone, just a thought It was from CEX so I know if had been owned before but they never said anything apart from if it doesn't work then bring it back. Still cheaper then buying a new one. When I asked in the 3 shop for a SIM card they said that they didn't have any in stock. I was like WTF? You are a phone shop.

Hartley Hare Posted March 3, 2011 Share Posted March 3, 2011 Are you telling him to turn it off and on again? Did you charge it for 16hrs first charge? It usually pays to ask the stupid questions first, Boycie, assume nothing.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
