The little bird told me: when you put a mobile near others devices that generate magnetics waves eg: PCs, Notebooks, micro-waves, usually the batteries drains fast.
A tecnical could be explaning better.

Hi, When I'm in the office, my battery drains fast, not even using any app. If I'm at home, my battery runs for 2-3 days. My coworker has same phone, but his battery is ok in the office. He said he upgraded his firmware and it runs better. Is it possible the firmware may fix my issue.

Just wondering is it harmful to leave the charger on overnight even though the battery has fully charged?
And is it ok to charge the E71 daily even if it is still say 70% charged or should you let the battery run right down occasionally?
thanks heaps
Andrew

A lot of these suggestions are basically saying that in able to make the battery last, turn off all the features that make it a smart-phone?

We all know that if all you want to do is make calls and send texts a 3210 will last for a week or month...

Pretty disappointed with the battery life of my e71, I returned it and it is claimed it was a faulty battery, hopefully that's true and the new one will give a decent life. What is the point in having a 3g smartphone and then not having features like push email/skype/im?

Hi. A big part of it is where you are located and if you get a strong 3g signal constantly. If you don't get a good signal then your phone is always working hard to hang onto that signal. That will easily suck the life out of your battery.

I got nokia e71 8 days ago. After few times recharging battery I have noticed: I use 3G network, light sensor 50%, power saver time out 35 seconds, light time out 25 seconds. I usually have about 20 min talk time, 10-15 min using internet ( just surfing), wifi 5-10 min, gps 15 min or dont use it at all... I send about 30 sms ( 2 days). My battery life is 1.5 day :( I also noticed that I was unreachable when I was using web browsing, I just receive sms that I have missed call...

I try to update my software but It says that I have latest software edition for my e71..

I noticed that usually battery life with normal using and using more than I do is around 2-3 days :(

Should I ask for new phone or go to authorized service( but why should I, phone is new)???

What I should do?

Thank you very much...

Hey Skvora! It's so sweet of you! You are using that Mugen with your E71 and it works without problem, right? I am going to get it one soon and hope that it will work with the voltage in Bangkok, Thailand.

As for the latest Garmin Mobile XT 5.00.50, there's a setting to disable the background service

What country did you by your phone from? Is it unlocked or did you get it
from a carrier?

Hi All,

When I go to Tools > Settings > Phone > Network > Network Mode I only see two options: Dual mode and UMTS.

All the tutorials say to select GSM mode to save power. Am I missing something?

Garmin XT is a real killer of battery!

Try Nokia Power Profiler and check your battery for battery usage. For me in stand by (idle with backlight on) is 0.20W

With inserted memory card (where is Garmin) is 0.38W

You can kill proces with Xplore also (it is in SYS/bin)

My battery is now good for 4 days (with Garmin's hidden process was two days)

Hello All!
Regarding forgotten applications running in the background: is there a way to see/display/monitor this? Maybe a shortcut? Or a shortcut to switch them off?
Thanks.

First of all, E71fanatics.com is this is a marvelous website.

I'm a fan of my E71. I've installed Garmin XT and I learned that it is a battery killer. It runs a hidden process called tsrautostart even if you don't use the GPS which causes significant battery drain.

To kill this process you can use a genuine tool called Jbak TaskMan. It's a free task manager for Symbian.
