Though I do like having a removable battery to quick power off the phone.. and to power cycle the phone.. which just so happens to be VM answer to fix almost any error with your phone
Thought Id re post something a wise person once said about why pulling the battery is more often times than not a great fix to a lot of issues
Capacitors can store a charge for years. The best way to make sure there is no residual juice in them is to discharge them. With a trace charge in the capacitors, any volatile memory may hang on to bad data. By discharging the capacitors using this method, you ensure that there are no stray 0's and 1's floating around in your phone's memory. That means when you do power it up, it will run the pure code, with no junk artifacts in RAM. The same methodology applies to PC's, but you have to disconnect the PSU. I've done this to fix a wonky BIOS, and it works. This is very subtle stuff, but you'd be surprised how effective it can be.
Having said that, I personally would not recommend a phone that doesn't have a removable battery, regardless of how long you intend to keep the phone. That is, unless yer rich and can afford to burn cash.
