i just got my new S3 from Digi... first, when the battery was plugged in, the phone could not be turn on... is the battery totally drained out?
then i went home and charge the phone for 6 hours, but battery only shows 48%... is it normal? 6 hours and it's only 48%? anyone facing similar issue? |

QUOTE(Moogle Stiltzkin @ Aug 2 2012, 02:50 PM) when i put in my s3 battery it worked. it wasn't 100% but it was half filled if i remembered correctly that's exactly what i thought cause normally there will be some remaining battery juices left... but this one is totally drained out?  and 6 hours to charge only half of the battery? |

QUOTE(benny888 @ Aug 2 2012, 03:02 PM) Full charge from near empty most is 3 hours+ Either battery is defective, usb cable defective or usb port in phone defective  could be so many possibilities of defective? i shall check if my battery can charge to full or not later on... if not, i'm going back to the centre!!

QUOTE(Zhao @ Aug 2 2012, 03:41 PM) Dont go back to centre. go to service center as the shop selling you wont replace a new unit. The guy did put the battery in but couldn't turn on. He just said, battery drained off. I didn't think much then...Why didnt you check it whether it can turn on before leaving By mean charging, did you use wallplug to charge or using pc/laptop usb port? using plug = 3+hours to max using pc/laptop usb port = more than 4hours to max. Added on August 2, 2012, 3:46 pm I use a wallplug to charge. Just to update, I went back to Digi Centre just now and they tried everything, i.e. change battery, change charger and etc. As a result, they found out the phone not charging although with the other battery. I demanded them to change a new one and they understand cause it's brand new and less than 24 hours! According to them, the last few days, there's a similar case with Galaxy Note. So, I've to wait few more days for my S3!!  |

QUOTE(tweikiang @ Aug 2 2012, 04:49 PM) Omg...seriously? hope this wont happen to Note2 ... Fingers crossed! And I won't be surprised cause they manufactured thousands of machines and definitely, there will be few which are defect. And I'm the one in a thousands unlucky one to pick a defect unit! Hope I would get a new and good one. |

QUOTE(Zhao @ Aug 2 2012, 04:54 PM) demand for 1 to 1 exchange due to customer service negligence and not being responsible , why wait for few days? They got no more stock at the moment... I don't mind waiting for few more days as long as I get a brand new, good unit! |
