well, another day of dissapointment for my mogul. keep in mind, i have the so called extended battery. after a full night's charge, at 8am it was at 100 percent. didnt use the phone at all until around 11am or so when i went on pdaphonehome.com and posted onto a thread i have there also. when i was done, the phone was at 80percent, 20% lower just from being on the site. as the day went on, i hardly used the phone for fear of loosing yet more power, which is F'king pathetic. I did make a few calls here and there, only lasting about 2 mins or so. around 1pm, the phone was at 60%, just sitting. did a bit of looking on this site to see if there was a reply to my earlier post, did the same thing on the other site where i have posts as well concerning batt. life, and phone was at 50% around 430 ish or so. didnt use the phone at all until---after 6 pm which is when i get free outgoing call minutes. ON purpose, i made a call that lasted 32 minutes. naturally, the phone got hot--not sure if thats normal either, and when the call was done, phone was at 20 percent. made another call after that, and seven minutes into the call---boom, phone went completely dead.
so much for the extended battery.
i thought today was the last day i had to turn in the phone under my 30 day period, but i have until tomorrow. i did go into sprint AGAIN, where they know me on a first name basis by now, and i was going to swap out for a entirely different phone. they again offered to swap for a new mogul which would be my third one now. I kept the one i had in an effort to see if i can still try to salvage it and figure out whatever it is thats draining battery. so i dont know, i guess this phone isnt going to work for me. i dont know what else to do.

TOMORROW IS THE ABSOLOUTLY LAST DAY I HAVE TO EITHER CANCEL SERVICE, OR EXCHANGE THE PHONE.
I do hope someone responds--
you've all been very helpful and i hope that in the next 12hours or so from now (10 pm eastern now) i can find a good solution. i have to make a choice tomorrow, either get another new mogul, or go back to a standard flip phone
im for getting another new one, but if the previous 2 had problems, i dont see how a 3rd wont.
