My Planet computers Cosmo Communicator battery is pushing the back off the phone, but they have stuck it in with so much super powerful glue tape, I can't even get to see the model labels under it. Looking for others with same problem, I read the model as 'SX600'. I can't find anything but old pictures of it from cos that don't sell them any more or don't deliver to the UK, yet the manufacturer is still selling the phones but expect us to send them to be 'repaired' at great expense! I use the device all the time! :(

I think it ought to be illegal fo manufacture devices that the battery cannot be very quickly removed, by simply opening the back and popping it out as all devices used to be made before the infernal i-phone came along and everyone else copied it to make us throw away perfectly usable devices every year or two! Manufacturers are effectively selling us incendiary mines that can't be disabled. Why was tis ever allowed?

Can I jump the connector from an external power supply/battery?
