New 820

[Jeric820PH]

Just got my Lumia 820. After the battery got full discharged I tried and charged it. Also it went "goodbye" on me for at least 4 times while plugged in my laptop. Stupid me didn't see I got a UK charger. And I don't have a adaptor atm. Well I wanna ask does it really take around 5-6 hrs of full charge? From 0% to 100%? Or it only took that long cause It was plugged in my laptop?

Laptop. Mine takes an hour. Hour and a half on wireless.

Laptop only gives 0.5 amps, whereas the charger gives 1.3 amps.

Thanks. Gotta get an adaptor soon to check it out

Even when my 820 is down to around 20 to 25% it charges (using the adapter that came with it), in less than an hour and a half. I usually can run two to two and a half days on a charge under normal usage. I don't think I have ever gotten below 20%. It will be interesting to see if the GDR2 update expands the battery life as I have heard some people say. Of course thats if us AT&T 820 owners ever get the update before they shovel dirt in our face.

Well, as other people may note, that is because you're charging it via the laptop. If you have any adapter around the house with a rating faster than 0.5A, use that instead.

I did notice gdr2 increased my battery life somehow. Btw quick question. How do we attach a image here using the wpc app
