Samsung Gravity T459 / Strike

A rep at the T-Mobile store confirmed to us today that T-Mobile is going to offer a software upgrade ( in a month or so ) to fix the battery problem with the Gravity ( T459) phone. Not sure if this is really true. Have no idea how they will contact customers... told us to keep checking in at the store.. I see nothing on the web in reference to this but he assured us that all the T-Mobile employees were aware of this problem and solution. He also told us that the Gravity actually had 40% power when it dropped to one bar. I don't think he is correct since it drops so rapidly.


It's very frustrating to know that T-Mobile continued to sell these phones at Christmas with no mention to the customer of the battery problem or advise on saving battery power. At this time the battery will be fully charged overnight and have one bar by 3pm and no power by dinner- with virtually no use of the phone.


There IS a problem - don't let anyone else tell you otherwise. T-Mobile and Samsung would not be working to fix it... if there wasn't.
