i'm running the latest firmware and thought this shouldn't happen any more? anyone else had this with the latest firmware?


One of the reasons for my Battery drain out was because under the Mobile Neworks setting i was set to 2G/3G, thus in the absence of a 3G reception my fon used to keep on searching for the signal and as a result the battery used to drain out quickly.. So consider switching to a 2G setting only ..!!

It happened to me once...but what happened was that when the phone went to keypad lock,the backlight dimmed...just when the backlight had to go off completely,the message came up "to unlock the phone......" with full backlight and then it showed the standby screen again in dimmed backlight...this thing went round and round till i woke up in the morning to see it happen...in the past 2 weeks,it happened again while the phone was in my pocket.A roboot solves the problem.

In the past 2-3 weeks io have rebooted to solve the above problem and also when my opera crashes due to low memory.Otherwise,i find the phone stable.

maruf06, go to

-control panel
-connections
-click on top - mobile networks
-select - gsm/3g networks
-select -gsm only

voila

BUT this is not the only battery drainer:

consider selecting also GPRS and select CS only which means the phone stays in gsm mode until you select ie. the internet browser then the phone connects to gprs and after you are done, it will automatically disconnect. Saves another bunch of battery power!

switch on the virtual keypad. this way your keyboard will only allow numbers and the special characters. and the follow the same steps as with the flip on. to enter '*' hit the 'X' key.
