Description David W. Aquilina (reporter) 2009-12-09 08:01:38 UTC

SOFTWARE VERSION: 1.2009.42-11.002
(Settings > General > About product)

EXACT STEPS LEADING TO PROBLEM: 
(Explain in detail what you do (e.g. tap on OK) and what you see (e.g. message
Connection Failed appears))
1. Make a phone call while the device is not fully charged 
2. Talk long enough to fully deplete the battery
3. 

EXPECTED OUTCOME: When the phone is low on power it should chime even if you're
on a call. 

ACTUAL OUTCOME: The phone goes dead with no warning, with a potentially
disastrous personal impact if you're on the phone with a romantic interest at
the time! 

REPRODUCIBILITY: happened once, have not attempted to reproduce

Heja,
Thanks for reporting this.

David, kaitsu:
Does this refer to a regular call (int-110606)? Or a Skype call (int-134998)?
I assume you used no headset? :)
Is the visual notification at least visible on the screen?

In my case this refers to regular call. 
No headset was used. I used the normal microphone & speaker setup as you would
normally talking to cellphone.

Since i had my head to the screen (and the proximity sensor was operating as
should), i can't say about the visual cues.

This could be tested by using the stereo speakers + keeping the screen alive
and then draining the battery while speaking.

Hmm, would probably also be cool to know in which Profile (Silent / General)
this happened, and what the master volume was.
But this is already helpful, thanks!
