Definitely the battery standby time does not work. Its a useless feature. It shows 220 hrs standby time when fully charged, which is almost 9 days. Then half a day later, it shows 180 hrs. Then batt lasts for 3 days only! My batt indicator is more accurate- it shows the step by step decrease

Mayb is that the battery indicator calculates the standby time and talk time in terms of temperature, so if you on your lights or use it too oftenly in a row, it will drop very fast, later when it cools down it then goes back up a little. thats my own opinion
mine also last for 3 days only, and i think the phone can only last for the time indicated by the indicator is based on non usage basis, meaning that you just leave it there and do nothing to it, not even incoming calls. anyway the battery consumption rate also depends on where you live, in cold areas or in winter, battery tends to loss quickly and charge slowly moreover it depends on the operator's coverage, more energy is neede to establish a connection, yet it accounts to bluetooth, further the range higher the concumption rate
so i think the only way to save more battery is dun use it too often otehrwise get yourself a backup battery
which actually cost me US$80.....i sould buy a nokia 3 series already hehe

well for other batteries nope, but for SE yes, not sure why but SE's battery need to be seasoned it is like climbing a cliff. Going higher n higher then boom fall down again. but so far my 1 month old phone is only capable of sustaining to 3 days before next charge

well u can hardly tell what is the real problem, if u bring to SE they will say it is mainly firmware problem, but i dun think it is true coz my R2B025 has no problem at all. battery loose? abit unacceptable unless your battery clip is ruined, otherwise it is hardware problem.
I had a Nokia 6510, had the same problem, i often update it to the latest software but still the problem exist.....i sold the phone and got my baby t68i. I am damn sure that it is a hardware problem for my 6510 for there was no fix eventhough i upgraded to the latest firmware, but for SE im not sure as i havent encountered such problem........touchwood.....i dun want it!
bring it to ericsserve in amcorp and have them tune your phone. request for a one to one exchange if the problem still exist after they tuned it

If the battery is not Original then the phone will only show full/half/empty.
To find out swap the battery from your freind's phone and see who is getting the correct indications.
I know this because i tried it on my phone.
