N80 Working ok except for battery life

Hi All
Just a quick one to say I have not had any of the problems everyone else is complaining about. The software version is 3.0617.0.3 and I am on Orange. My only problem is battery life, lasts a day! so I am about to turn off Bluetooth and the search for WLAN to see if this makes a difference. Orange said if not they would test the phone to see if it was faulty or the battery.
Oh one other thing the N80 does not like the Parrot CK3100 car kit.

sister_bliss, I have been following this thread with some interest as battery life is the biggest problem I have with this phone, I can live with or work around other issues until they are sorted via firmware. For information, with regards to how many features are running and signal strength etc, I use my phone on GSM only, bluetooth/infrared only when required - I have these set up as standby icons for convenience. Signal strength is excellent even on 3g and I have disabled packet data connection and use it only as required and I get a maximum of 2 days out of a full charge. Btw, I noticed yesterday that using the camera eats battery life, I sometimes need to take photos as part of my work - for reports etc, not often but sometimes and even shots taken in daylight use a lot of energy. Once again, if an application built into the phone uses so much energy it should be taken into account when fitting the battery, I buy a mobile phone to use as a tool not just to sit on my desk looking flash and tools get used - in my case frequently. Sorry if this sounds like a rant but nothing, imo, could be simpler to rectify than this, your thoughts would be interesting.

  • N95 vs N93i vs N80i for battery life

    Hi, I am buying a new phone and I really like the N80i [N80 Internet Edition] but I hear that it doesn't have very good battery life (less than 1 day). So I am also looking at the N93i and the N95. I know that they provide more features too over the N80i but I'm not so interested in those, I just want to know about the battery life. How do these three compare for battery life? (I know that the N93 standard edition seems to have better battery life than the N93i, but I can't seem to find anywhere to buy this one in my country).

    Hi,
    If you're not after with the features....why don't get Series 40 phones like 6233, 6280 and 6288? Which has a good battery life and much responsive compared to symbian phones.
    We've tested the N6233..and it manage to hold its charge for almost 3 days with heavy usage.
    Ouch! Only series 40 phones are symbian? S60 series phones(like the N series) are not, are you misqouted?
    Knowledge not shared is knowledge wasted!
    If you find it helpfull, it's not hard to click the STAR..

    Could be an early retirement problem.  There is no fixed lifespan for anything, as you know.   Find a friend with a keyboard and test that in your machine.  That will show if it is your keyboard or your computer.   We can progress from there.

  • I've just hooked my 20" iMac up to my Toshiba 37" HDTV using a mini dvi-HDMI adapter, and works well, EXCEPT for the green tinge (or hue) that is showing up on my TV. Any suggestions or ideas?

    I've just hooked my 20" iMac display up to my Toshiba 37" HDTV using a mini dvi-HDMI adapter, and everything works well, EXCEPT for the green tinge (or hue) that is showing up. Everything else looks pretty good though..... The color that is on my iMac is still good, Its just green on the TV.
    Anyone have suggestions or ideas?

    Try opening the Display System Preferences, then click on the Color options in the Display preferences window that appeared on the Toshiba display. Click on the Calibrate button and follow the instructions for creating a custom ColorSync profile that will hopefully solve the green tinge issue. The Apple Display Calibrator Assistant software that launches when you click on the calibrate button will walk you through the process.Assuming that the green tinge is minor and that you don't have a more serious cable or hardware issue, I am hopeful the results will be worth it.

  • Hello there - I am sharing an iPhoto library across two accounts on the same computer - it works fine EXCEPT for Quicktime movies - they play on one account and claim I don't have the rights on the other - all permissions are on and ok?

    Hello there - I am sharing an iPhoto library across two accounts on the same computer - it works fine EXCEPT for Quicktime movies - they play on one account and claim I don't have the rights on the other - all permissions are on and ok?

    It should be in the Users/ Shared folder.
    Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Note the option to check and repair Library Permissions

  • I have a production mobile Flex app that uses RemoteObject calls for all data access, and it's working well, except for a new remote call I just added that only fails when running with a release build.  The same call works fine when running on the device

    I have a production mobile Flex app that uses RemoteObject calls for all data access, and it's working well, except for a new remote call I just added that only fails when running with a release build. The same call works fine when running on the device (iPhone) using debug build. When running with a release build, the result handler is never called (nor is the fault handler called). Viewing the BlazeDS logs in debug mode, the call is received and send back with data. I've narrowed it down to what seems to be a data size issue.
    I have targeted one specific data call that returns in the String value a string length of 44kb, which fails in the release build (result or fault handler never called), but the result handler is called as expected in debug build. When I do not populate the String value (in server side Java code) on the object (just set it empty string), the result handler is then called, and the object is returned (release build).
    The custom object being returned in the call is a very a simple object, with getters/setters for simple types boolean, int, String, and one org.23c.dom.Document type. This same object type is used on other other RemoteObject calls (different data) and works fine (release and debug builds). I originally was returning as a Document, but, just to make sure this wasn't the problem, changed the value to be returned to a String, just to rule out XML/Dom issues in serialization.
    I don't understand 1) why the release build vs. debug build behavior is different for a RemoteObject call, 2) why the calls work in debug build when sending over a somewhat large (but, not unreasonable) amount of data in a String object, but not in release build.
    I have't tried to find out exactly where the failure point in size is, but, not sure that's even relevant, since 44kb isn't an unreasonable size to expect.
    By turning on the Debug mode in BlazeDS, I can see the object and it's attributes being serialized and everything looks good there. The calls are received and processed appropriately in BlazeDS for both debug and release build testing.
    Anyone have an idea on other things to try to debug/resolve this?
    Platform testing is BlazeDS 4, Flashbuilder 4.7, Websphere 8 server, iPhone (iOS 7.1.2). Tried using multiple Flex SDK's 4.12 to the latest 4.13, with no change in behavior.
    Thanks!

    After a week's worth of debugging, I found the issue.
    The Java type returned from the call was defined as ArrayList.  Changing it to List resolved the problem.
    I'm not sure why ArrayList isn't a valid return type, I've been looking at the Adobe docs, and still can't see why this isn't valid.  And, why it works in Debug mode and not in Release build is even stranger.  Maybe someone can shed some light on the logic here to me.

  • Hello.  I recently pieced together a late 2008 MacBook Pro 15".  Everything works fine except the battery constantly goes between "not charging" and "calculating" or, rarely "charging". It does charge after a long while and will report that it is charged.

    Hello.  I recently pieced together a late 2008 MacBook Pro 15".  Everything works fine except the battery constantly goes between "not charging" and "calculating" or, rarely "charging". It does charge after a long while and will report that it is charged.
    I have reset the NVRAM and the SMC a couple of time but that didn't work so I ran an Apple Hardware Test and while testing the logic board it gives the following error:
    4SNS/1/40000000 LB1T
    I've done some research and found this is a temperature sensor related to the battery, but cannot find where the sensor is located in the computer.  Would you know how I can find the sensor to test it?  Could my battery problem be related to something else?  Would a fresh install of Lion help?
    Thank you!
    Mike
    Two pieces of information that may or may not b helpful, the hard drive is from my early 2008 MBP and the only test disc I have access to is from an iMac.

    Why do you have LION installed on that older machine?
    So you say you built a macbook from a bucket of parts eh?   Kudos
    heres a pic of the battery temp sensor

    No time member is defined in the last row.
    any idea? Which parameters define the next members, ie how it determines that NEXT(1) of 2009.MAR is 2009.APR?
    thanks for your help,
    Romuald

    Hi,
    I don't have NEXT property. I just have a PRIOR property which is correclty defined except for january. I think that is the problem. I'm going to add PRIOR property value on january members.
    thanks for your answer,

  • Best 7200RPM HDD for battery life

    Anyone have any suggestions on the best 7200RPM hard drive for battery life? I think the one I have is draining the battery because it's the only thing I have changed. Even on 99% my battery indicator has never showed 7 hours, max I have ever seen is 5 so I assume its the hdd pulling the charge.

    If you've only had this MBP for two days, have you even run the battery all the way down to see how long the battery actually lasts? What you see in the menu bar is only an estimate based on what you're doing with the computer at the time. It becomes somewhat more accurate over time (because it remembers your common use patterns) but it's never as meaningful as it seems. But if you haven't calibrated your battery yet, and you don't have enough experience with the machine to know how long your battery lasts in real life, you have nothing to be concerned about.

  • Which model (old or new) is good for battery life ...

    hi. i want to buy old hp or maybe new model but don't know which is best for me. hope u can suggest to me which phone is good for battery life and signal receiver. thanks

    Hi wadud
    Ironically the simpler the phone the more likely that battery lasts for ages and has less bulk to screen the signal. I have a 1100 for emergencies which holds it's charge for months admittedly switched off, whereas N82 Smartphone won't last the day in use without charge.
