SH-01B: Charger problem

[tarantye-no]

A few months ago my battery started to use up too fast and I ordered a new battery for it. It arrives yesterday and I thought it would work again but my problem now is that this battery even use up faster than before! So it couldn't be the battery itself.
Anyone has a suggestion for me? Or experienced it by yourself?

You could try master resetting the phone.

Okay, and what does it mean exactly? Get everything deleted? And where exactly can I find it?

Try both settings > 3 > 0 and settings > 0 for a reset.

My battery lasts an awfully long time!

Remember to backup everything that isn't on your microSD card as the master reset will clear data that's on the phone.

Martin, remember not many people are on 3G!

I really can't complain about 3g battery life, one week per charge is really not bad at all

Are you using the official Docomo Version 2 charger? The one that is for international use and supports 100V~240V ?

Does the charger used actually make a difference?

I'm using an old Panasonic charger, not a SoftBank/docomo charger, might need to get an official one if there's a difference.

Well, the first one is the original one and the second one is a charger I bought on ebay from a UK seller. I set the settings back and now it works longer. Thank you for the information!

Well I mean, the Docomo version 2 charger supports the international voltage for EURO area and North America and Asia

The regular version 1 charger only supported Japan voltage 100V~110V i believe

Im glad its working longer now

My charger is an old Panasonic China 100-240V two-prong- if I get a new docomo branded charger will there actually be any difference in battery life? Or is the only difference international voltage support?

I think it's just voltage support. I'm using a Vodafone UK Sharp car charger to charge a lot of my crap.

Wow... how have I amassed 4k posts on here...

Paying $30 for a charger didn't sound great so I'm glad to hear there's little to no difference. Back to charging with my old fire hazard...

It happened again, that the battery lost power very quickly (I charged it a day before and the next day it already have to be charged again), but I hope now, it's the old battery just giving up life. I changed it with the new bought battery and will see what will happen.
