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

incompatible memory cards may damage the card and data stored on the card, as well as the phone.

Rear Cover” on page 5.).
2. Locate the memory card slot and orient the microSD card
so the contact pins are facing up (see illustration).
3. Carefully insert the microSD memory card into the opening
and firmly push it in until you hear a click that indicates the
card is securely installed. The card is secure when it is not
protruding from the slot within the phone.
4. Snap the rear cover back into place.
Removing the microSD Memory Card
