Battery dies too quickly

Why does my battery die too quickly? As soon as I charge the phone and use it for about 15 mins it says battery is low. Is this a battery problem or is it just a common phone problem?

Did you fully charge your battery when you first opened the phone? If not, the battery will never hold a full charge. it tells in the booklet that comes with your phone. Not giving your phone at least 16 hours on the first charge might cause battery trouble later. You may need to replace the battery. I hope this helps.

Buttons don't make any sound but can hear dial tone, speaker phone doesn't work, phone dies fairly quickly - would this all be caused by bad battery and what is the life of battery in a Panasonic cordless...

First off, try changeing from tone dial to pulse dial and try calling out. If that does'nt work, touch bad is probly bad. As far as the speaker phone it does not work off battery's it works from the main base which is powered from the A/C. And for the battery life, when you have a cordless phone you have to build the life to the battery, what I mean is : first time you charge it for 12-14 hours, after that use the phone and do not put it back into cradle, the battery will hold a charge for 8 hrs, if you use it for 30 mins and put back on cradle untill next use, use another 30 min and continue doing this the battery will build its life to 30 min and always die after 30 min, try to get into leaveing off cradle all day and charge while you sleep and keep off cradle all day.

I charged my 2GB SENSEI mp3 player for more than 4 hrs...but still its not working even for 10 to 15 mins......so wat is d time required for full charging....

Depending on the age of the mp3 player, the battery may be shot and you may need a new one. mp3 players tend to get heavy usage and the batteries can die and get burnt out quickly especially if they are not charged properly. Try draining the battery until it can no longer turn on. Then charge your battery for 6 hours. Good luck.

My phone is completly charged and when i pull it off charge about half an hour after depending on how much i use it, it turns itself off and then when i try turning it back on the Lg start up comes on then...

Hi,
The happy news is there is no problem with phone,the hardware of your phone is in good condition.The problem is the battery.The battery of the phone is dead.This a step behind Stone dead stage.Next state of your battery is stone dead.You can't even use it more.Now the phone Battery will act like charging.Your battery can take small amount charge only because it is dead..Even though you charge your battery for 2 days continuously it will stay for 30 min or 10 min depending the charge usage.

Solution for this is you have to replace it soon..Go to nearest shop and check this with their battery and buy it.

Please do rate the solution if the issue is
resolved or post a comment for further
assistance.

Battery is dying after 10 min talk time

Normally when a battery does that it has to do with it's very first charge. If the phone was turned on at all before the first charged reached it's full capacity, one day out of no where it will just die very quickly. You should also notice that when it charges it reaches a full charge more quickly than it did before. If that is not the case then you just got a defective battery. I can tell you for sure it doesn't have anything to do with the memory card.

Bought my phone yesterday...Battery was losing charge quickly.. battery was down to half charge after about 15 minutes of fully charging.. Was trying to let the phone die completley then fully charge it,...

Ok first of all you should never let a phone die out of charge at all.IF it dies out of charge there are chances it might charge again once you charge it but in some cases it wont, you need to boost your battery just like jump start your car.It cannot be done anywhere except some service centre. If you are not taking to your service center , then you need to buy a new battery.

Phone dies quickly after charging

It would be helpful to know just how quickly the battery is going flat, and I'm assuming there's no history of the phone having been damaged, but... Try swapping the battery for one from a friend's phone. If that cures the problem, you need to buy a new battery (they don't last forever). Otherwise, try charging the battery fully in a friend's phone using their charger, then see how long it lasts. If this lasts much longer, the problem is that the phone/charger combination isn't charging the battery properly. Mix and match chargers and handsets (mark which are yours before you start, or you will get mixed up) to identify where the problem lies. If the battery isn't old and tired, and the phone is charging it properly, then the problem must be that the phone is drawing excessive current. This could be because you've got it set up to do some power-hungry thing (backlight continuously on, playing MP3s or FM, promiscuously Bluetoothing or IR communicating, etc). Shut down all the functions you don't actually need at the time and see if that makes any different. Once you've eliminated all those, you're left with the liklihood that the phone has a fault which is making it draw excess current. Not good news, but at least you've eliminated all the other possibilities. A.
