Motorola V600
V600 battery life?
I removed my phone from its charger saturday morning, having recharged all night, kept it on all day/all night saturday and sunday morning it beeped saying low battery. I only recieved one call (didn't answer it) and made one 5 minute call on saturday. Does this sound normal? I usually use my phone all day then place it on the charger at night. I only had it down to one bar the first couple of days I had the phone when I was playing with it a lot. I thought the standby time was several days?
...
While I am not getting the full talk/standby time advertised (never do) I am averaging about 90-100 minutes of talk time and 4-5 days of standby. This without any photo use, games or browsing, all of which eat up battery power. I think you have a bad battery or charger. The Moto connectors are really bad.

I agree with this. If I talk very little, I can get just about 6 days standby, but typically I get 4-5 days between charges.
Although I once lost a charge in a single day about 3 weeks ago. That very same day, the phone was acting a little glitchy somehow, like while browsing the mp3 ringtones, if I previewed an mp3, and then hit 'back,' it would back out to the previous menu but the mp3 would continue to play to the end. Stuff like that. The previous night, I got a call while it was charging, and that's the only thing I could think of that might've triggered it. A power-cycle fixed it, and since then it's been completely normal, although I since haven't received a call while charging, either.
