Are you in an area with a strong or weak signal? If it's weak, your phone could be going through power trying to repeatedly connect to the network. If you're in an area with a generally strong signal, check to make sure you're not leaving in a "dead zone".

What are you using your phone for? The amount of power the phone consumes differs dramatically depending on how often you use it and if you play games / browse the internet a lot. etc. Try using the phone only for sms' and calls and see if there is a difference.

If the battery is losing power quickly even while the phone isn't being used often / at all, it could be a problem with your phone - and not the battery/charger. I recommend taking it to a repair center / technician to have both the phone and the battery checked out.

It has happened in the past that two batteries in a row are a dud - so it is best to have both checked.

Good luck,

-LL

Testimonial: "thank you for the help i mainly just use it for sms so will have to go get it checked out"

Has been charging for 3 days but does not reach full charge. Now appears to be draining when plugged into charger

Sounds like a faulty charger.have you tried using another charger.have you also tried running the battery completely flat via control panel utilities.sometimes this helps the battery renew its stamina by complete discharge then doing full recharge.lastly if the charger is not faulty and you have tried full discharge and recharge cycle it could be the battery is starting to fail.it is not a good idea to leave the battery on continual charge as this can shorten its life.most batteries last between 500 to 700 recharge cycles before they start to lose their holding capacity.

Digital camera batteries go bad?

Yes the can go bad.
I still have 9 year old Kodak lithium batteries in good condition, nut I know sometimes my rechargeable batteries last no longer then a year. It is a shame that some camera brands only give a 90 day warranty on the batteries.
To keep your rechargeable batteries in a good condition, give them a charge at least every 3 months. Or always a day before you need the camera. Never try to use speed chargers. I still have a charger capable of charging full within 15 minutes. The barrettes are hot, and when charged that way after 10 or 20 times they are dead.
Just use the charger that came with your camera.
But if you only can shoot a few shote with your battery, buy a new battery.

Revive drill driver battery packs

Rechargeable batteries do have a lifespan, they won't recharge forever. If you have fully discharged the batteries then fully recharged them and they still don't have full power or they only last a couple minutes then they are done. If they won't charge or the charger shows them as defective, the only fix is to replace them.

How can i check if which need replacement my batt or my charger coz when i charge my batt the led lights on then after a while it turn of the led light then ill unplug it and plug it then still the same...

Power Source Li-ion Rechargeable Battery (LI-42B) Are you using the above battery?
Check the voltage to make sure it has enough as printed on the charger or the battery.
Alkaline rechargeables, or NiMH rechargeables, or other types of batteries don't have enough voltage or amperage as compared to Li-ion.

I have a new battery.For how long should I charge it?

Overnight for the first charge, then let it run empty.

The biggest mistake most people make is to use the camera for an hour or so, and then plug it back into the charger...Batteries have a memory of sorts, and eventually this habit causes the batt to only last for an hour or 2.

Rechargeables need to be stretched out and used to their full potential, inorder to realize their full potential.

After the first full charge-full discharge cycle, let it charge for 4-8 hours (depending on the type, charger, and manufacturer's specs, of course) and then allow it to sit for a few hours after use (to cool down) before putting it on the charger.

Both batteries show full charge but don't last 10 minutes. Only had the tool for less than a year.

rechargeable batteries can build a memory, if you use it say for 5 minutes and then put it back on the charger - then the next time you use it for 5 screws and put it back on the charge - see where I am going
Over time the rechargeable batteries "learn" they only have to work for 5 minutes ( dang my son was that way)
You need to fully drain them and recharge them fully several times might take 10 times.
We have a program in our shop that when you are done with a battery it goes in the flashlight until dead, dead, dead then to the charger. I have batteries that are 10 years old and still work almost like new.
You may have to replace yours but it is worth a try

Can't charge the battery

# New batteries need to be drained by using the camcorder until the viewfinder indicates the battery is empty. Follow these steps: Once the battery has been drained, you may use the charger to recharge the battery. # Consult your manual for the amount of time the battery requires on the charger to get a full charge. # A full charge will be delivered by the charger. # Some camcorders have a Refresh feature, which will automatically drain the initial charge on the battery. This allows the battery to fully recharge.
