There must be something wrong

with my p900, because the battery lasts about 4 days and it´s online 24/7. I talk with it about 1-2 hours per day, use gprs and bluetooth hf. I´m very pleased to my p900. Sorry my poor english skills...

As I said before battery performance seems to be something of a personal thing, not uniform. Some people hhave reported great battery performance from the P800/900 whilst others seem to struggle to get more than a day's use out of their device.
I have recently had a replacement P900 becaus emy initial one was faulty, the new one doesn't appear to have the same stamina that the last one did. I am hoping that a few charge - discharge cycles will improve its performance and that taking all the usual steps will work.
Interestingly though, I am no longer using the much debated 'battery extender', perhaps an indication that it did in fact work? I might just pop it back in and see what happens.

I dont have bluetooth or gprs on, diaplay blacks out after 1min etc. I have installed qfileman which has a tasklist thing so that should help. I nearly had a heart attack yesterday, after charging my phone on Friday night, it was fully charged by 2am, but by midday on Sarturday it was down to about 20%!! I rang CPW and told them I wanted a new battery, which I'm supposed to be getting tomoro, actually I'm just getting a replacement fone. I have now realised that GoBoy had been left running during the night so I think that is y the battery was so low soo quickly on that ocassion. Actually I tried to close Goboy but qfileman wont shut it down, so if I have it on I have to turn my phone off and on to get rid of it. But yeah I'm still gettin a replacement, hopefully this time without CPW staff pictures! I'll make sure it's a totally new one that hasnt yet been used!
But other than battery life, I love my beautiful P900, I promised myself 6 months ago I would own one, and now I do!

It's a great attention seeker in work too heh!

The P900 grabs attention...
Well, no bugger really looks twice at mine... though it does look kind of old stylie and indeed large from a distance... moreso when the average Joe has a little flip effort, requiring magnification to see the buttons...
Nevermind, perhaps its better that people don't notice the phone, as this surely reduces the chance of theft...
This may also go some way to suggesting that the majority just don't recognise anything which isn't branded "Nokia", "Samsung" etc., and one which doesn't actually fold squarely in half... !

I agree with KSE on this. but almost everybody who had seen the phone while i was using it walked up to me to find out what it was. Particularly I was browsing once and one person also said, "does it also have a phone attached?" well wat do i say?

just smiled and said yes.
