since 8:34am to 8:05pm my touch pro battery went down 1 bar

thats right i wanted to get behind what was draining my battery. i appplied all battery tweaks for the touch pro when i got the phone and made it better. i was off work today and decided to see how the battery last with the radio turned off(basically airplane mode)i used the phone to play games an mess with software on the phone that didnt require internet threwout the day. the battery on went down 1 bar in 12 hours vs battery usually gone in 7 hours of non use with 3 bars of service in my house. so the radio is the cause of rapid falling battery life. what would htc have to do to fix the radios?

also you can test your battery drain with different situations and set-ups using a battery drain monitor

I saw 12 hours and thought you had achieved some miracle until I noticed you said it was with the radio off. I think today I had my battery last a full 2 hours with no calls and light usage (though I do have exchange Push mail)

Newsflash.

Without the phone turned on, there is no RF transmissions from it unless you have BT/Wifi enabled.

The device itself uses very little power, it's the RF communications that take up a lot of the power...
