SE47 Battery Connection Problem?

I have the Slider SE47, and Its about 8 months old, and I just bought a new battery. I charged the battery fully when i recieved it, and the battery dies really qwickly. This is what is weird, I take the battery pack off the phone, then I put it back on.

When the Phone turns on, it has 3/4ths of a battery. After i use it, the battery would go down again. I then do the same thing i did before, and the battery would be full. I dont know whats going on. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

I believe theres a recall on their batterys. I got a new one from them.

Thanks for the info

Yep, Kyocera has recalls on quite a few batteries for a supposed fire risk due to counterfeit batteries. Both my wife and I got free replacements from them.

I was reading about the battery recall..How do you know if it isn't a good battery?? I just won this phone on ebay. Haven't heard alot about them..Are they good phones? I have verizon.

Honestly, the best idea is just to call Kyocera, and they'll tell you what to do. If you're lucky you'll get somebody lazy who won't check whether your battery is new or old, and will just send you a replacement - and then you'll have two batteries (they send the replacements free of charge, you don't pay for the battery OR shipping).

That said, the difference between my new and old batteries was that the new one had a barcode on the label, so my guess is that's how you tell.

I said this is what you have to do.
