Help Battery Problems

[BK Slumlord]

Ever since I got this phone the battery was terible. Is there another type of battery I can purchase to put in my phone. Also how the heck do I even get to the battery, it seems like the manufacturer didn't want anyone to get to the battery.

Hi BK!

Sorry to hear you are having probs with your battery. You can remove the battery by sliding down the case at the back of your phone. If you bought your phone with the battery already installed you may not have a manual either.

Cricket has a manual for the Huawei Ascend that you can download. Here is a link for it:

Hope you can get it figured out or someone else may be able to help you more.

Get a good grip on the back cover and Slide the back cover down. Remove the battery. You can purchase another battery but it will be the same capacity as the pre installed one. You can try downloading Juice Defender from Market(choose beta) and see how it works out. After application is installed, open it and just enable using the big button. DO NOT go into advanced settings, I recommend.

I hope that solves all aspects of your post, not just the part on how to take out the battery.

I can co-sign Juice defender. My phone can go a day off the charger with bat to spare. Amazing app.

I tinkered my settings a bit and voila.
