Well I’ve bought my K700i, I’m very happy with it but what’s up with the battery?
I read something about new firmware and stuff, can I just download it?
And I bought a Bluetooth for my pc so I can sent files to my K700i and all that but the Bluetooth remote control for my media player and desktop doesn’t work, anyone with the same problems???

U arent alone witg a weak batt, t6x0 fones suffer of the same problem. U should get used to it, se dient showed much interest until now to launch fones with acceptable power accopding the many features they put in their fones.

i don't think he should put up with bad battery life. its a flaw and k700 has much worse battery than any of the t-series.
as for adaquete battery for all the features, my p900 has great battery life for all it has, and it is stronger than the k700 for battery life, who has less features. i think it is a big design flaw on SE's part and something they should release a fix for.

Have my K700 switched on 24 hours and only need to charge every 3-4 days now. The battery gets loads better as you charge it. If you've got a K700 with R2A firmware then maybe you should goto your nearest

approved centre and let them take a look at it. Tell them about the battery and the other problems you've noticed. They will update the software. Make sure you tell them that there is a problem as some service centres wont update unless theres a problem.

God knows but it does.
Could be something that it running in the background on the old software eating the battery life???
Had mine for 2 weeks now with the new and improved FW and saying that I'm used to putting my phone on charge each night I haven't seen a problem really.

Think its the battery itself guilty. Wrong tech or way of manufacturing, short test time etc

@boba the fw can change the screen brightness and contrast settings and the power settings on the screen after the screensaver is displayed. It can also control how and when the lights on the keyboard turn on. FW also controls how often the phone searches for better signal and other things like that. I'm sure that

altered these settings as well as some other things to improve battery life.
