Battery Indicator

Yesterday my battery had 3 bars, but when I plugged in the charger it had 1 bar.

I know, why did you charge it when it had 3 bars? I didn't believe it.

Anybody else have this problem?

It is either lying with the charger on or off. Which do we believe?

Try going into the battery details to see the actual battery usage. I have a shortcut for this, so I just press 'OK' then '6' and it takes me right in (like FCN-6 on my old STartac baby)!!
Gives you the battery info on a larger and more accurate scale.

Hopefully when MOT updates the firmware we'll get more notice about weak batteries

i think i remember reading earlier in one of the threads, that this was one of the issues the firmware would be addressing.
