Does the battery drain faster with an SD card in the slot?
If so, is it a noticeable differrence?

Hello buddies,
I have purchased the handset in the month of July.
I dont know if this is a problem which I observed yesterday as I wanted to change the sim card.
After I change sim card I observed that battery is around 2%. Earlier it was above 50%.
Now today this problem happened again as when I removed the sim card and replace it, the battery again drains out.
Otherwise battery performs normally. no sudden discharge.
Guys pls tell me wat shd I do?
thanks.
Maybe once you remove the battery to remove your SIM card, the battery contact did not sit properly in the phone once you put it back in. So, you're getting higher resistance which leads to higher battery drain...

Maybe once. But it's weird it happened twice.
i have 3 battery and exchange rapidly, sometimes when i change a full charged battery the battery level low like 2% but the level will increase over time untill where it should be.

Hi,
Could you please let me know what would be the effects if I keep my phone always (when possible) on external power source? Will this decrease the battery life or it has not effects or it is recommended?
Yes it will decrease the battery life of the battery. Think of it in terms of muscle memory. If you don't use it, you will lose it. Same goes for all rechargeable batteries.
Since ive had my prime ive noticed a couple of times ive woke up and even though the prime was switched off the dock battery had drained a bit, first time down to 60 % thismorning down to 40%. i just noticed that the dock has a SD card in it, (was copying over some photos the otherday forgot to remove it) is there any chance that the card being in there could be using power?
Hmm, same problem of my friend.. he re flash the software and then reformat the sd card and then all fixed..
Hi all, I know there are probably numerous threads on this subject but I wondered if anyone can help.
Whenever I use my music player (poweramp) for hours afterwards SD Card drains my battery like crazy (all my music is on sd card). It starts high then gradually comes down.
Is this caused by a corrupt file and is my only option a reformat of the sd card?
I understand that the SD Card shouldn't use power as its just a storage device but after using my music player the battery drains very quickly. When I look at battery in settings it will show something similar to the following:
SD Card 47%
Screen 23%
Firefox 10%
Media 6%
etc etc.
So, we know that the SD Card shouldnt be draining the battery but looking at the above it is draining the battery. Just wondered if anyone knew why this is happening?
The percentage that the SD Card is using gradually drops over the next few hours, prob around 4-5% an hour. But whilst its running it can drain my battery at between 3-5% per 20 mins.
47% SDCard is def. strange. If you have root try to use BetterBatteryStats to isolate the battery drainer.
Hello, I have a problem with my SGS3. I buyed a battery with a higher capacity and now my phone shuts down after regular use as if the old battery were further in use. Normally it should last longer but it doesn´t.
Another point is that if my phone shuts down and I take the battery out of the phone, put it back in and turn my phone on then it´s at 50 % again.
Where can I find the files where I can edit the battery capacity?

Maybe the battery cannot send battery stats to motherboard? Battery could be defective?
