I dunno how truthful this rumor is, but the "fix" certainly can't hurt anything, so just try it. This is how to do it-
1. Let the phone go completely dead, until you can't even boot it up.
2. Charge for about 5 minutes, just long enough to get enough of a charge to boot up & hard reset.
3. Let the phone do it's configurations & reset, then plug it back in & let it charge OVERNIGHT.
Whether or not this rumor about the bug is true or not, doing this literally TRIPLED my battery life, so I'm inclined to believe it's at least partially true.
