Hi all,
I have just bought this Nokia E72 (from an authorized dealer, I must add here) about two days ago. I have used it until the battery went empty completely and the phone switched off itself. The with the phone switched off, I started recharching it. Based on my calculation (and using an original recharger from a Nokia 1209), the battery would be completely charged after approximately 4 hours. Now there are over 12 hours since the phone it is recharging (those small blocks on the battery bar are still moving) and it seems to me like it will recharge forever. What and where the problem might be ? ![]()
I would like to add here that I use the same battery recharger for my other Nokias as well (1209, 2323, E71) and the battery bar stops after the battery is fully charged (there is also this message on the display telling me to remove the recharger after the battery is fully charged).
Please anybody who had this problem in the past, let me know how should I solve this issue.
Have a nice day everybody ! ![]()

It's now roughly 36 hours after you post. Did it finally finish charging? There are "fast" Nokia chargers and "slow" Nokia chargers, but I don't think either should take 12 hours! I don't believe the E72 battery is much different from that in the E71, so the charging time should be similar. But where is the original E72 charger?
If you're still having trouble with charging, I suggest not over-thinking this, and swapping your phone (or at least the battery) for another unit. Charging is one of the most basic phone operations, and if this doesn't work, I wonder what else could be wrong?

Hi !
Sorry for not being here for a while. A long while ....
My E72 finished charging after about 12 hours and a half - this thing happened only for the first recharge.
I didn't use the charger that was in its box because that is a fast charger - the charger from Nokia 1209 that I used (and that I still use today) it's a slow one. I'm using that one because I don't want to "bomb" my battery with energy - I want the battery to take it slowly everytime I recharge it.
It's absolutely the same battery used on Nokia E71 and E6.
Now the phone gets fully recharged after every 4 hours - you could set your watch on this operation. ![]()
