Hi guys.
Ive had my w900i for a ocuple of months now and am very happy with it so far, altho recently ive had to charge it everyday. I do use the phone a decent amount, but not enough to elpty the batery right down in one day.
Anyway, something I noticed, it started to show poor battery performance roughly the same time I bought and used a new 1gb SONY MStick.
Any ideas about this guys? As in, why ave I got poor battery life?
Thanks
Baz

lower the screen brightness, i use 70% reduces the consumtion
and also disable the 3g network it will help keeping your battery alive.
if you have BT or IR turnon turn it of it eats battery too.

What firmware are you running?
I found that R5AF was really bad for battery life.
Updating to R5BB seemed to fix it for me.

Where did you get a firmware update as there isn't one on SEUS?
Also does the new vershion have Text delivery reports on? As i have a french import phone with R5AH001 on it and i dont get reports.
Does the cable that comes with the phone work to update the firmware?
