Default Battery Life?

Please Login to Remove!

My 8130's battery just recently took a turn for the worse. Has anyone seen their battery go from holding a charge to having to charge it three times a day? What should I do? Is it under warranty?

Batteries dont last forever.

facebook is unlikely to cause it as it doesnt need to be running in the background to pick up notifications.
have you checked whats running in the background?

ERm, Im not familiar with the 8130.
Can you press ALT and the escape button? (the arrow looking button)
This may show it.
or the menu button, then again and go to switch application...
it will show you.

You dont need to logout.
You sign in.
you click menu - close
it then stays logged in and intercepts emails from facebook to show in the app and doesnt run in the background unecessairly, draining the battery.

How long have you had your battery for? As mentioned earlier, batteries dont last forever.
