Battery Capacity
Your Omnia II is powered by a rechargeable standard Li-ion
battery. There is also an internal backup battery that saves all
phone settings if the regular battery is discharged. The internal
battery maintains data for approximately four hours. This internal
backup battery needs an initial charge of 24 hours.
Perform ActiveSync operations or use a backup utility frequently
to avoid losing any information in case the battery is fully
discharged. For more information see “ActiveSync” on page 109.
Note:
Long backlight settings, simultaneous use of Wi-Fi and Bluetooth,
searching for service, vibrate mode and browser use affect the
battery’s talk and standby times.
For more information about Battery and External power settings, see
“General Settings” on page 140.
Battery Indicator
The battery indicator in the upper-right corner of the display
indicates battery charge level. Four bars indicate a full charge,
while an empty icon indicates an almost-empty battery.
Two to three minutes before the battery becomes too low to
operate, a blinking empty battery icon appears and a tone
sounds. If you continue to operate the phone without charging, it
will shut down.
Checking Battery Charge
Keeping track of the battery’s charge is important. If the battery
level becomes too low, your phone automatically shuts down and
you could lose important data.
To quickly check your battery charge level, tap the
Battery
indicator on the Title Bar, then tap the
Charging
icon
to display the
Battery
Power
settings.
Use of Non-Supported Battery or Accessories
Only use Samsung-approved charging devices and batteries.
Samsung accessories are designed to maximize battery life.
Using other accessories may invalidate your warranty and may
cause damage.
Samsung handsets do not support the use of a non-supported
battery. When using a non-supported battery, you will hear a
series of beeps and you will see a warning message that
indicates “
NON-SUPPORTED BATTERY. SEE USER MANUAL.
” If you
receive this warning, battery charging has been disabled.
Samsung charging accessories (i.e. wall charger, and cigarette
lighter adapter) will only charge a Samsung approved battery.
Important!:
When using a non-supported battery the handset can only be
used for the duration of the life of the battery and cannot be
recharged.
