OK - ta for that. When the bit comes I will have a go. Phone is nearly

OOI, what's the problem part? I've a friend with an S2 that I've just
found a new battery for as she reckons it's not as good as new. If
there's something draining current I'd be interested.... (I question
the use of the word "interested" as it probably just means more work
for me!)


It's almost certainly the USB port - it basically does not charge,
except sometimes after much plug wiggling.

Known problem and the USB port is on a daughterboard which is cheap.

Wonder if that's what's wrong with son's Galaxy Ace Plus.
