batteryt life on sprint 6.5 horrible

[uanosike]

I've had battery issues. I think it may be the radio. On standby it's fine with very little use and regular data usage. But once phone calls are made it drains it dramatically. Another contributor to drainage while off the phone could be the use of GPS location by sense and other apps to update the weather and such.

I posted this in a different thread before. I noticed it has been mentioned already. If you are experiencing horrible battery life I recommend trying it. See the testing data below for proof.

It looks like when Sprint updated the PRL from 60659 to 60660 and on they added something that the phone will scan a bunch more channels. It kills battery life to my understanding. After reverting back to 60659 and testing it for a few days, I have noticed considerably more battery life. I am using March 20th 23549 w/cookie.
