My battery seems to drain faster than normal and I am wondering if its a defect on the phone's part cos my battery is quite alright... Is the battery power this bad on a 6555?

Rubbish phone!!! Shutting down all the time. It did work for 12 months without trouble and as soon as my phone hits 13th month (out of warranty), the phone starts shutting off. Also noticed, different nokia phone, same location, same time and same provider, this phone is getting 50% less signal reception as compared to other phone.

I am sick of Nokia phones. I will try Sony!!!

mine would shut off answering or during calls,,,,,
i put in a 2 gig memory card and it hasn't happened since,,,,
some guy here said he put a piece of paper in his and fixed the shutting off problem,,,,maybe the battery just needs to be tighter in it's housing.
...or did the 2 gig card free up internal memory?
not asking a question,,good luck with a great phone.

Easily the wost phone I've ever owned. It would shut itself off without reason or warning. It would also randomly dial people from my contacts list. Not necessarily people in my speed dial list -- just any random contact. I returned the first one thinking maybe I just got a bad phone, but the second one behaved in the exact same way. Other people I know who've owned it complained of the same issues. Clearly this phone some very bad design issues. Nokia had to be aware, as a person at the service center where I had them replace the phone told me they had seen a lot of issues with these phones. Had Nokia confessed to the problem and offered a replacement with a different model, or phone that had been retrofitted with a fix, I'd have been happy. But they just gave the same crappy phone again. As a result, I will never buy another Nokia phone.

It keeps getting turned off by itself thousands of times a day. Not a good choice.

I've had this phone for almost 2 years, and it's been good to me. The battery life is a little short, I have to admit. It shuts off on its own about once a month while I'm sending a text. It gets warm if I'm talking more than a half hour or when I'm using it while it's charging. However, these have all been minor issues to me. This phone has been dropped (open and closed) and kicked but still keeps on going. The call quality is great too.

Random shut-offs. Turns itself off while talking to someone. A total piece of crap. Only save it if you want to throw it at a Nokia engineer.

I have Nokia 6555 for 1 1/2 year. For past 6 months phone is randomly shutting down. I noticed worsen this problem with combination blue-tooth, power charger and use of my phone. Phone is in good shape and relatively new. Because is out of warranty Nokia or AT&T won't take care of this problem for free. I believed this is manufacturer problem. Do you have any suggestions beside using paper in battery compartment? Thanks
