sounds like you're trying to save to the memory card

the internal memory is 16gb

[Swisha]

the 16GB is partitioned as 2GB for system apps and the other 14GB for apps/music/vids/pics etc.

From 100% this morning at 7am I still have 60% at 7:26pm.

what kind of use are you giving it?

I just charged mine and was just going through some of the settings for about half hour or less. No bluetooth and no wifi on. Battery dropped to 91%. This is the second time i am using it after a full discharge and same crappy battery life. Phone was charged to 100% after it discharged and was not powered on until it was complete.

Wondering what I buy here.

[sentraman]

I am wondering if it a problem with the battery or if it is the phone. It was purchased On Friday from bmobile.

[r3iXmann]

sentraman, check your display and screen timeout settings..the screen uses a lot of power

Was it after half hour use, it dropped from 100% to 91% or was there idle time in there?

Have you installed any apps as yet?

[sentraman]

It was probably about 20 mins of actually playing up with the settings. once the screen is on it goes down quick

I use full brightness, live wallpaper and quite a few widgets, plus I use approximately 1 hour of browsing, about an hour of gaming (HD games),wifi is always on, I'm always texting or using some messaging app, and a few phone calls in between. My phone is unplugged from the charger at 7am and usually dies around 8pm if I don't charge it in between. Considering what I put the phone through I think that is fair battery life.

[CBharath]

i have a mini x10 and modded it with gingerdx rom but now its asking for the phone sim lock . anybody here ever encounter this problem ?

Did you "condition" the battery when you first got it or did you just charge it whenever you felt like it?

Well I hardly use it today except for some calls and a brief 5 mins on the net and its been unplugged for 14hrs 30mins and is at 78%.

[S_2NR]

sentraman, download and run battery calibration from the market.
follow the instructions carefully.

(ur phone must be rooted for this to work)

[sentraman]

[S_2NR]
