I really have no answer for that, the standby time and the talk time change everytime I do something on the phone. One minute it's low, the next minute it's higher than before, and at times it just drops.
lol, weird or what?

Has anyone notice that the battery recharge time is getting quicker but the standby time is slightly worse each time. Is this a problem with all rechargable batteries?
Nopes never noticed anything like that.
I must say that I think my talktime has been increased since upgrading to R2B

As far as I know, when the phones are made and that the battery is charged and discarded several time, they are shipped discharged(or with very little power), as along time ago it was decided that shipping charged batteries was dangerous.
They recommend that the battery is charged for 16 hours… as the phone could have been in storage for a long time, and hence would need a all charge.
By their nature a battery will not last forever… Treat it well and it will last you a lot longer...
The new batteries are really good, and can take a heavy beating before they begin to deteriorate. So no mate charging your battery for 4 hours the first time will do very little damage.
As for as I am aware all batteries, have an improve time, this a time, were the performance increases and the batt lasts longer and longer, that’s why its good to treat a new bat well, then the performance steadies off…and eventually starts to deteriorate, and hence time to buy another… but by then u will probably have a phone that’s capable of making you coffee and toast in the morning…(maybe I will send that in as a suggestion to Sony Erric)
As for charging it overnight, that used to be a real big problem with phones, I have been doing it for ages and had no probs on newer phones/ batts, im guessing that that the phones software or the batt can deal with overcharging. So personally I don’t think its bat….. but honestly haven’t really got a clue.

lor, i get that 2,
from what i notised the time, i seem to get higher times in better repeption areas, while in low coverage areas- it drops right down.
i just put it down to the phone needing more power to lower coverage areas.
maybe mr. noodles can shead some light on this one, as i would really like to know why this really happens.

You are exactly right with that on "bad reception" areas the "battery-meter" decreases.
It works as an ordinary amplifer, the higher you wants to play ther more power it needs.
If you are close to an RBS (RadioBaseStation) the RBS ask youre phone to decrease the amplifying(signal rate), and the same if it is a long way from an RBS but instead of decreasing the phone is told to increase the amplifying so it can be "heard" by the RBS.
It happens that phone goes "insane" and "drownes" other phones because of the amplifying control thing gets broken and the phones is on "full amp."
So if you live in

or very close to an RBS your standby time will be better.
But who knows what might happen to your health!

I heard that too, the more beer you drink the lower the radiation levels in your body get. I heard that although these new Lithium polymer batteries don't get the memory liek the old Ni-cad's it is a good idea to fully discharge them about once a month to keep them healthy, I've never had any battery troubles with anything through doing this, including my laptop and rechargeable razor they've both got li- poly batteries and last as long as they did when I first got them
