Default Battery life

Please Login to Remove!

I've had my Storm for about a year. In the past couple weeks, my battery has been draining very rapidly, but only when I'm talking on the phone. I have a full signal. This doesn't happen when I'm on the browser, or facebook, or playing games--only when I'm talking on the phone. I lose half of my battery life on a three minute phone call. Any suggestions before I head to verizon?

My bet is on battery going bad. I suspect if you doing frequent browsing or downloading files, you would see similar.



Can you borrow a battery before you spend any money?

I do browse quite frequently, but it doesn't drain the battery the way calls do. I'm thinking the battery is probably going bad. Thanks for your quick response.

Yes, your battery could just be bad, if you are constantly draining it.
