Troubleshooting Battery Drain on a BlackBerry Powered by Android OS

Seems like there's a problem with that service book which is being pushed to most OS6 devices by the carriers. The problem is back if you reboot the phone then you have to delete the service book 2 again. Hopefully it will go away soon but its not a major issue for me. Tobi Well-Known Member.

Joined Dec 5, Messages Problem still persisting! It is now becoming an irritation! TX for the service book heads up - it is easier to do than battery pull. Mine just did it again. If your carrier is having issues and your is hunting back and forth for a 2G and 3G connection all the time it will drain the battery fast.

charging light blinking, no display

My was constantly looking for a signal and the battery went down fast. I switched the phone to 2G only and it helped until the tower was back up. Like 0. Change your autoupdate for BW to a longer interval.

Close all apps that you are not using in addition to an webpages. Turn off WiFi and Bluetooth that you are not using. I also have an OEM charging pod at home and in the office.

It was expected to be a rival of other high-end smartphones at that time, but unfortunately for RIM , it was unable to establish itself as a phone capable of reeling in new users. Not hiding it at the very bit, the BlackBerry Torch recycles the design of its predecessor. Reply Report. If the iPhone 5 looked exactly like the iPhone 4, will PhoneArena give it a con for 'Recycled design'?

How does iphone rating effect the blackberry rating? Actually, I have nothing invested in this. You seem to be overreacting a bit.

My point was that PA has some arbitrary standards as to what constitutes a recycled or rehashed design. PA had no issue with the fact that the iPhone, iPhone 2, and the iPhone 3G were identical, yet the gets a knock for a recycled design. I don't own an iPhone or a I set up the phones for my company's account, and a few of our people have 's and the original torch from last year.

No matter how improved or unimproved the Torch 2 might be, it still will sell quite well here This phone is not gonna sell well. It's the exact same thing as its predecessor! First thing I just pulled the battery from my Torch and its battery say 1, mah so its battery is not a downgrade. Two most phone look similar to each other nowadays so knocking off points because RIM used a design they feel works is unfair.

This will be great for the money. Too bad the will not be available yet.
