Hey everyone,

lately I've been having some issues with my battery on the K800

I can have a full charge and afford only 20-30min of talk time before the battery alarm goes out.

After the call, the battery meter does climb back up to about halfway.

I did try another battery, same thing.

I wonder if the headphones that I am using are giving a bigger draw or something.

I used the HPM 70 headphones, which I know were real.
The ones that I use now are HPM70, came in a perfect box... etc. but have waaaay too much bass. So I figure that they may not be real.

Or could it be some sort of antenna problem in the phone. I got the phone shortly after they came out, so it has a few dings.

Perhaps I should flash the gdfs?


Any ideas would be appreciated.

Thanks

flash the gdfs Update your phone via Sony Ericsson update servive (seus) and see if anything improves

In case you misunderstood krazyd007, do NOT flash a GDFS that's not yours!

I'm using the UK version of the flash for the past 2 yrs. The phone was originally Hong Kong.


Ok, here's an update.

The battery was charged only half way, I was able to talk for almost an hour before the call ended.

So, I've narrowed it down to the fake headphones. With those engaged I seem to only get 20min.


I'll continue to test different ways.
