- Hello,
About one week ago I bought a BB 9300 and I made the mistake of almost completely discharge it in the first day. When it turned off by itself, I turned it back on several times. Then, I found out that doing this can damage the battery or may cause a malfunction. Now my battery doesn't last even a day. I use my phone a lot but I always close the apps Im not using, backlight is set to the minimun.
I want to know if this problem can be the consecuence of what I did or if they gave me bad battery.
Is there any solution?

- Absolutely correct, that this should not happen with the new li-ion batteries. but still before you go for a battery change. Let the battery drain out completely till the phone shuts down and then charge it till it gets a full charge, see if this helps. (It has helped me once )07-06-11 01:06 AMLike 0

Compare the Talk time to Music Playback which uses the CPS, but not the phone radio: 4.5Hr vs 29Hr.
