LATEST BREAKING DISCOVERY!  My friend bought his Midland set last month. Look at the battery! It's a 06W04 batch. The wrapping isn't metal and on the top part of the back, there is no < > on the top. Is our AP battery actually Sony Original? This post has been edited by calvin_gsc: May 18 2006, 05:47 PM

QUOTE(sean392 @ May 19 2006, 06:45 AM) Highly possible. There was cases where AP sets had come with Midland [SE] and Zitron [Nokia] stickers... Well, the difference on the shell of the batteries are not something new.... kinda expected when coming from older to newer batches.... Oh it's common? Gosh, now buy original also still risky.

QUOTE(-vip3rleon9- @ May 19 2006, 06:17 PM) i think my batt's a fake one.. cuz the meter goes down and then goes up again.. from red to green!!  and also, after charging for 3 hours, batt life very weak..  QUOTE(pengster @ May 19 2006, 07:53 PM) mine also da same....after calling/using da batt intensively,it will go to 40+% from 60+%..den after leaving my phone idle for while it goes back up to 50+% does any1 thought of da possibility of every different batch of BST-37 is different? Well, currently my battery is still fine since it's new. You guys have these problems when you first got your phone or after a few months?

But the most latest discovery here is this  Look at the supposedly white tab. How come this one isn't very white... as thought it has touched water.

QUOTE(pengster @ May 21 2006, 02:56 PM) yea abit lor after heavy usage.... like i use until orange colour edi den after a while it goes back to green colour again  Is this what you refer as improved performance? Bro, you got the wrong perception edi. This is common amongst the new SE phones, the phone constantly calculates the battery usage on your phone when idle and when running appz like media player, radio or playing games.

QUOTE(pengster @ May 21 2006, 03:20 PM) actually i dont remember saying anything bout improved performance...just agreeing with viperleong that da batt meter sumtimes go up  anyway thanks for da heads-up Sorry, misuderstood you.  Any K750i/w800i user go through the same thing as you are going through. The battery meter does go up and down depending on your usage. This post has been edited by calvin_gsc: May 21 2006, 03:25 PM

QUOTE(youngkies @ May 27 2006, 10:32 AM) when u open for example java game.. it will calculate the battery for how long much u can use with the java on... lets says 20% when java on.. so u left 20% to use with java on... but when u exit it.. it will recalculate again... its make sense when u exit java and stay at idle/standby, the battery consumption is much lower compare to with java on.. so that is why the battery status will go up again.. to say 25%.. tat is wat i think la... That's what fu|at told me about Sony Ericsson battery. It will always calculate your usage.

QUOTE(ruztynail @ May 27 2006, 01:37 PM) i bought it frm HSS company from Subang, near the post office in carrefour, the one with digi t-shirts, as their sponsors i think.. so yea thm. my battery is the same as the pics above, except that my sticker is white. the others all point out is ap ori. so i dunno. haha cant take pic cause no camera. hp camera (wont work without battery in it).. anyways jus my 2 cents.... if the "pirate people" knows about this thread. thy sure will try to change their imitation products to look like the ORIGINAL ones. i mean its freaking hard to tell wats ORI frm FAKE. so yea, unless u go by the code. but thn also thy might hv one ori battery jus reproducing the same no for all their imitation batteries. so really CHINA can do it all man. hehe Hehe, well, without them also it'll be hard for us to have such nice phones...... at cheaper prices....
