It is on the battery circuitry. All li-ion/polymer batteries (phone and laptop) have such circuitries. A low count doesn't necessarily mean your battery is still good. I have a Li-ion battery that only has 80 charges registered but it's dead due to old age.

p.s. Li-ion/polymer batteries will age and eventually die even if they don't go through a lot of charge cycles.

How do you find out what the current charge count is? By using some hidden functionality or hidden menu item in the phone? By using fMA (floAt's Mobile Agent)? By using something else?

@Bico FMA tells you the charge count, don't think it is in any hidden menus on the phone.

Why did SE take the joystick counter out of the service menu on the t610, that was a cool feature on the t68i.

@evo9fq300: Do you use an original SE battery? If not, it may confuse the charge counter. Just a spontaneous thought...

evo9fq300 probably charges the phone every night when the battery was never really empty (or below a certain level to trigger a count).
