V600 Battery Meter Question...
My V600 battery meter never seems to look any different (the green battery shape with what looks to be 3 bars isnide it), even after a full days use. However when I plug into the charger, it flashes to indicate charging and also seems to indicate how many "bars" it actually has left usually one or two. The manual does not really specify just how the battery level is indicated either.
What does everyone else see on their meter?
Thanks!

What does your battery meter (in the phone status menu) look like after a day or two? That meter has 6 segments, so you might get better esolution there.
To get to it, you go to settings, phone status, battery meter.
I don't have a lot of hours on my phone yet, so my battery always seems full. I have been charging it every night and I never seem to make a dent in it.

When you charge the battery and the battery indicator flashes and has ONE bar on it, thats the overall progress it has completed to complete charge... that doesn't show how full your battery is. It shows how complete the charging process is.

Basically, the battery meter is total crap. The only time you can believe it is when it's showing full charge after spending a full night on the charger. If you listen to Motorola, it's all your fault because you didn't condition the battery properly by running it totally flat for the first few cycles; lol. These Vxxx Moto phones are a lot like late 1960's Jaguar XK-E's -- brilliant design with totally flawed execution.
