6+ hours to charge my iPhone?

Munky · 07-03-2007, 03:54 PM

the first night I got it I ran the batt all the way Down and it charged for 4 hours exactly and was done. Last night, the second time to charge it, it took 6 hours and was still on 90% and the power was never interupted while charging.

Any suggestions?

I'm guessing you were charging through the computer right? DING DING DING (not enough current through there

)

I found out quickly that charging through the computer is a whole lot slower than just plugging it straight up. If you use the enclosed wall plug then it doesn't take long at all.

I noticed that as well... plug in to an outlet. I plug into an AC adapter every night now. MUCH quicker.

once again, not new to this game. The phone displays the little plug symbol indicating that it is a full charge, yet the ussage timer has not started even after I unplug it.

And yes I have always charged through the wall except for the 5 minutes it was plugged in to activate it, then another 10 minutes to add my songs.
