Added on April 7, 2009, 10:33 pmright top side. but it doesnt have an internal built in app or monitor for batt.

if i remember correctly, SE phones can display the batt life in percentage right?

SE phones can check the status...
[press the volume up button]

or go to setting

but it's useless anyways.. it's not like we're counting calories or anything.

but it would be nice if the phone can display the batt life in percent on the top right side of the phone

im using cClock and it displays the batt juice left in %
for those who doesnt noe wat cClock is..google it..

cClock is nice application..but i prefer Epocware [cannot display % battery]

thanks man!finally make the circle disappear d!

Must be former SE user =P

If you're looking for a function similar to SE's phone status, sorry don't have, but there should be 3rd party software to do it...

yup.. i think so too.. but a batt % meter won't do so much good as nokia batt monitor is not so accurate unlike SE. SE is better in that sense

i am at highway ler . sure no building beside me wor

u driving too fast izit?

i used a normal nokia maps...and got a lock on GPS on highway..the blip moves as my car is moving.. cool

And there is no additional apps that can give accurate battery meter =.=

How accurate you want ? What's the difference if you have 20% or 30% battery left ? Or 60% or 80% ?

Or you are interested to know you have 24.5% or 24.7% battery left ?

u dont understand me..and i dont expect u to. have u used your own SE before? at least the100308 understands..

nokia batt meter tends to show 80% when it's at 70% or lesser.. maybe the batt is at 5 bars...and then suddenly go down to 3 bars.. why? cause it's not accurate in detecting batt life.

charging to 80% but batt shows 100% life..u get the idea

Go read from battery-university website and google on Li-Ion battery and technology. That's how Li-Ion behaves. If you have time, then proceed reading Ni-Cad, Ni-Mh, Li-Polymer, etc. and its distinctive features (advantages/disadvantages).

Nokia and other devices, including notebook PCs using Li-Ion behaves the same way. e.g All the notebooks when left idle, between 60-100%, it says can last 2-3 hours. Then when drop to <60%, it goes down very fast.

but why SE are better at MONITORING the batt life?

^ fren. Sony is main battery producer/supplier for all brands of HP and even notebook.. tat's y they can do better. tat's all

huh still battery issue??

guy please check this...
Nokia Energy Profiler
u got more than u ever need it

Anyway, sometimes I get p!ssed off with Li-Ion battery indicators also. When check, shows full bar, but is actually just a bit above full bar. Go outside halfway, the battery drop 1 bar. Then already know the battery will not last as long as I want.

So, nowadays, I charge daily Mon-Fri in office, even when it drops one bar. Sat-Sun sometimes do not charge, or charge 1 time only.

My battery still strong after >1 yr. Not yet degrade too much. Original authorised Zitron set.
