is there any way to change battery without rebooting?
- Even easier --
- turn the phone off (with the VZW logo in the middle)
- change batteries
- turn the phone back on.
Not sure why people are thinking he wants to have his phone running all the time without any power.06-10-09 05:15 PMLike 0 - A Blackberry is not a laptop. WTF?! Stop comparing it to that. Upgrade your OS to .148 and swap your battery. Contrary to the 5 minutes it used to take to boot up in .75, .148 is about 2:10 on the reboot time. If you can't deal with 2 minutes of downtime on your phone, perhaps you need to plug it in more often or get a larger capacity battery... or even perhaps, another type of phone.
as far as getting another type of phone, iphone doesn't have service in my area.06-10-09 05:18 PMLike 0 -
still i would like it06-10-09 05:21 PMLike 0 - I thought i remembered something about it being a very bad idea to leave smaller electronics plugged in with no battery if they're not made to be used like that? No resistance and frying the circuitry or something?
Honestly, I wouldnt even try to change my BB battery with it plugged in, seems unsafe. I remember either a mp3 player or PSP or previous phone or something having huge warnings saying specifically NEVER to plug in without a battery.06-10-09 05:31 PMLike 0 - You flat out can't change the battery in the iPhone anyway, so even if you did have service, it wouldn't work for you.06-10-09 05:41 PMLike 0
- Your suggestion doesn't work. Turning the phone "off" using the red/end button and then swapping the batteries still requires the phone to go through the full boot cycle, and the full boot is what the OP is trying to avoid.06-10-09 05:44 PMLike 0
