you might be out of RAM..
close some apps that are running..
IE eats up a bunch of RAM..

Looks more like a faulty battery to me! OUT OF RAM or LOW RAM never will give out the message: LOW BATTERY.!

If you have the chance to try another battery (maybe you own a second one or a friend might have the same device) just give it a shot ...

I have EXACTLY the same problem with my phone. This phone is onlt 1 month old and was a replacement for a previous MDA that had SD card problems...

I have the exact same problem. When I don't use WiFi the battery lasts for several days. But when I use Wi-Fi in 10-15 minutes it restarts and shows battery very low.
I have noticed that if I connect and immediately disconnect the charger, it shows that there is a lot of power left in the battery and the phone will actually last a while. It definitely can't charge it so fast, so somehow its getting confused about how much battery is left.

Can anyone help with this, please?

I just did a clean install of the official T-Mobile Rom, and the problem is still there. The phone keeps restarting.

Help please.

Guys
Junner2003 is right. The problem is a failed cell in the battery. If you don't put the wizard under any load it will last for a while however as soon as you ask it to do something (like use the internet) it dies real quick.

Get a new battery (not a second hand one that you know nothing about) and the problem will go away. I had the same problem a few months ago and went through all the same issus mentioned on this forum but a new battery solve the issue once and for all.

Thanks for the input, jt_armstrong. I'll replace the battery and report back here. I am thinking I about getting a high capacity one like this one

Hey everyone. jt_armstrong and Junner2003 are right. At least in my case changing the battery seems to have solved the problem.

I got the high capacity one from ebay, and so far it has been working perfectly.
