Hi I got my Nokia BL5c battery replaced by nokia. It was having many problems like -- it was getting hot after overcharging. There are reports that batteries are bursted by overcharging. This is also happening to other batteries also. Nokia announced to take back these batteries manufactured by matsushita electric co ltd. And they will be giving replaced to the customers who are having genuine battery. (that is with bill) What is your experience Regards Sachin

Yup sometimes I do overcharge when I'm charging it at night and I forgot to unplug it before I sleep. Luckily it has'nt happened to me. :-)

Yes, I often overcharge my phone's battery but luckily, I use a Sony Ericsson phone. Too bad for Nokia users especially those you use the BL5C battery. Here in our country there was one user who overcharged her phone and it blew up, literally! The Nokia mgmt replaced her phone and that's when Nokia announced the trouble with BL5C batteries. Tsk! As I said, I'm lucky I use SE phone =)
