Hi

purchased a second hand Nokia 7650 a couple of weeks back and have a big problem with the phone I.E the battery only lasts for 1 day maximum even with hardly any use...purchased brand new battery but still the same? any one else had this problem? plus when Bluetooth is selected phone comes up with system error...seems like a software problem to me is there any way to upgrade the firmware on this model or can anyone help with these problems???? much appreciated

Thanks.

go nokia care centre to upgrade your software and it is free as long your warranty still valid.
battery life is normal...
to last longer, you might have to buy 3rd party high capacity battery.

before i install smart launcher i had it running for about 2 days now with the software ie smart launcher, phone lock and smartanswer running in the back ground it drains up more battery. i'm getting just under 1 day of battery life. i hardly touch my phone and use it but it still last me a day...

Well the best thing to do about the battery is to carry around a spare nokia blb2 battery.. i do it....mine only lasts a day aswell on one battery...
about your bluetooth problem, your going to have to go to a NSC and get if fixed but here's how to find out whether it's a software error or hardware fault....
type int he code "*#2820#" and if you get a bluetooth address then i't a software error else if it's blank then a hardware fault..
Cheers
