battery life

Is anyone having trouble with the battery life on this phone? It basically sucks. I bought two phones from Verizon in signing up with new service. Both phones are bad. They both die within about 35-40 hours whether there is talk time or not. One of them has a terrible static/clicking sound on it. I've had verizon service now for a month and have barely been able to use it because these phones are awful. I've complained and have been told to go to a VZW store for help and the stores tell me they can't help. I wish I stayed with T-Mobile...

I have read on various boards that by turning off the service light on the phone that it will increase battery life significantly (although I do not have the phone myself, so no first hand experience). The static issue doesn't sound good and the store/Samsung should help on the one phone. There should still be a warranty on it, although your past the initial 15 days trial.

I had the same problem with super short battery life. The Verizon Store swapped my old batteries for new. Problem solved. My original batteries that came with phone were defective.
