Your firmware version?

Dial *#0000# to check.

Go to this page;

http://europe.nokia.com/support/download-software/device-software-update/can-i-update

enter your product code and see what is the latest firmware available for ur product code. If the newer version available, install Nokia Software Updater and try to update.

The Product code is printed on the white label beneath the battery (e.g. CODE: 0520001).

Here is a strong possibility of what the problem is - I have noticed how easy it is to leave some application still running when you shut it down by using the slide switch.  Maybe maps or bluetooth - anything really.  Before you use that slide switch; display the main menu and look carefully for any item with a little circle near it.  Any you find should be turned off by clicking onto that item and then exiting from it by clicking "exit".  Now check that menu again to make sure that all items are now turned off.

               As a separate precaution; if you keep your 5800 in a flexable pouch; you will find that there is plenty of room for a spare battery (only about £5).  The spare would be needed on a long flight or when using the unit as a satnav if not plugged into the cars cigar lighter

It is not sufficient to just close the "Applications".  They are on a separate menu.  It is the main menu which you should look at to make sure EVERYTHING is closed down

hi dear, i too have faced the same problem... please do the following

take out  your battery and brush the golden clips with alcohol but be careful while rubbing the clips....it may widen your clip, that may not fit your battery ..

 do it.. it will  improve your battery power and it will last long
