    Battery life a few days after 5.0

    After letting the battery completely drain to 0% and charging back up to 100%, the issue appears to have solved itself. Still not sure what caused it but my theory is that the watch had been on constantly for weeks and either needed to be restarted or charged from completely flat to full. Some...

    Phone "vibrating" while music is played

    Re: Screen "vibrating" while music is played No need to be a **** about it. You rambled on for 2 paragraphs about the screen vibrating before you even mentioned the possibility of faulty speakers. If u got a problem with your handset, get the point first then ramble afterwards.

    Phone "vibrating" while music is played

    Re: Screen "vibrating" while music is played Have to agree with JBeef. All sound is vibration. This is basic science 101. Either turn down your music or put up with it.

    What is classed as heavy battery use?

    Are you closing your apps after using them? (Recent Apps Screen) This really does help with battery life. I can usually get from home to work and still have 100% battery. Today i got to work and noticed i was on 98%. This happened because i forgot to close my apps last night before bed.
