Battery life fix??

---

Hi everyone,

I don't really post much on here, but I've been lurking around for ages & finding this place very useful for modding my MDA Compact II. Thanks for that!
I've been looking for a while for some sort of battery fix?
I've had the same battery for about a year now & decided that it was time for a new one. So I got myself one ordered from T-Mobile in the US & had it shipped over (not cheap!).
I put it in my phone & charged it for 48 hours then started to use it, unfortunately it only lasted about 6 hours!? So I contacted T-Mobile & they sent me a new one.... Same problem!?
So I'm beginning to think its the SW?
I'm running the new HTC Touchflow OS with a few other bells & whistles!
Can anybody suggest a fix please! I don't want to have to buy a new one!
Thanks.

Who told you to charge it for 48 hours? That doesnt even make sense with this kind of battery. Try to discharge it and charge it to 100% again.

Yeah strange hey?
Yeah I've tried that a few times but still the same rubbish battery life??

The battery is a PM16A if that helps??

I read somewhere a while back (Probably here), that your battery life could be affected when you update the ROM? IE: If it is not fully charged when you update.
Is this the case, is there a WM6 fix for this??
Thanks....

Its doubtful to be a software problem. You can of course try flashing to WM5, then again to WM6, see if it helps.
