    Hi Folks
    I have my galaxy S1 for around 16 months now and a week ago its as if a switch flicked in it and now the battery is dead by 6 or 7 in the evening. I used to charge it every day but it would always last nearly two days if I didn't charge it.
    Do I need to buy a new battery or is it time for an S2???

    It could be a recently installed app that is draining your battery.

    Up to you really. A new battery is cheaper.

    This is the best/cheapest one you can get. I got it off Ebay but Amazon should be ok too.

    So does this mean that you think it is the battery Simi??
