    Purchased an 8130 pearl about 2 months ago now. 3 weeks after I got it the phone locked up on me and would not respond. Removed battery for about 10 seconds and then put it back in. It took awhile to boot it up, but it did eventually come back on and was fully operational. Since then I've noticed that the battery won't hold a charge for very long. When I take it off the charger, with 100% battery, it will be down near 70% within 6-8 hours and below 50% after about 10 hours. One evening I went to bed at 3am, I checked the battery which was at 70-80%. When I woke up at 9am the phone was completely dead. I placed the phone on the charger, and it would not take a charge. Again I removed the battery for about 10 seconds, put it back in, then placed it on the charger and it then started to charge. I'm just wondering if I have a battery that has a bad cell in it by chance. Any input or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
