Hi im not really experienced on ericsson but i love them now. Just a quick question. Is there a function that tells u how much stand by and talk time u have left on the battery. I remember on older ericsson phones if u pressed the side buttons it told you. Hope someone can help me. thanx

T68m and T68i i know for sure had this estimated battery function...they should have left it in for the T610...but no they didnt...o well!! Maybe newer firmware upgrades might give us this cool function...i miss it dearly!
If you really want to know, try downloading Float's Mobile Agent on your computer, connect your phone to the computer and check it out there!

im not sure if its to do with the software, as the t68 and t68i can read the battery, and estimate it. however the t300 cant and, (i'm not to blame if you try this for your self)but if you put the t300 battery in to the t68 or t68i it does not show the time left or give a estimate, it only shows a battery level like the t300 ??? could this be some thing to do with battery ????

I think he was talkin about Floats mobile agent m8! You can get it from here (http://www.esato.com/resources/?cat=16), it doesn't say it's for the T610, it only mensions T68i, T68m and T39, but it does work with the T610!

WTF....i PERSONALLY own a T68, and a T300...batteries dont fit each other at all...T300 is way longer!! How did you stick that into a T68??

...........has nothing to do with battery, but with the firmware itself. This battery feature that estimates the time left, was an Ericsson feature, but it seems that sony doesnt do it anymore.

yea you can i own them too,, the battery of the t300 dose not stay in on its own, you have to hold it in,
all you need to do is make the connetors fit, it shows the normal battery bar but no time estamate

OOOO.....not suppose to fit...just tried it with a rubber band....the phone turns on, but the battery is stinking up?? It smells like its going to explode or something?? But anywayz, the T68 only detects/estimates times on OEM t68 batteries....i use to have a high powered t68 battery, put it into phone, works great, but no estimate!!
Whatever, i dont think i really needed the estimate though, works just fine....
