Phone Chargers

[Kurosagi]

So i have owned my Nokia X3 since summer and the battery been excellent but until now the phone battery drops to half in like couple hours O.o,it normally last couple days if i don't abuse it so much but now it dies very fast.
What you guys think it could be problem?? I noticed the charger i got is the official Nokia one but it charges the phone to full in like half hour and it takes longer on usb so which would be better for charging phone??
And You think it could be that killing the battery and i will soon need new one??

check the voltage out put of the charger and match it to the one written on the side.

Well heres the info:

Charger:Input: 100-240V,50-60 HZ,150 mA Output: DC5V 890mA
If this helps

no.... you need to get a measurement of actually how much the charger and battery is giving out!!! use a multimeter.

i remember looking into liion batteries some time ago for a similar reason, only to find out that the phone has alot to do with the charging cycle even more than the charger itself,

although i would say use your usb if it takes longer to charge, as most batteries will/should last longer, well my old nicad nimh used to ;)

Well the battery is close to dead right now,i think its from me abusing the battery by charging it everynight before going sleep so i might of killed it but is there anyway i can save it? >_>

yeah thats a very bad thing. nokia always says charge when you need it.
my 3110c battery is 2yrs old. my 3110c is history the battery was used in another cell, it still gives 2-3days use. now i used it to replace my MP4s battery. gives > 4hrs of 320*240 high brightness of videoplayback with high volume. lasts 3 days without charging.
i used to charge only when it reached the last line. carry two batteries around. if you cant charge when you reach the last line, use the other one.

I keep my phone(s) plugged in all the time. The batteries have lasted years. I've had mostly Motorola during that time, not Nokia, but I'd be surprised if that made any difference.
