Ok Moment users, this battery thing is really becoming an issue. This phone has the worst battery management I have ever seen of any phone that costs more than 5 dollars. Can anyone give me some suggestions? I have two , one rooted one not and they both stink. I took it off the charger here at work at 11am, its seriously been sitting on a filing cabinet since, already drained to 70% left. I turned off my gmail contacts, calendar and email auto syncing today thinking that may help but it's no different. I use a task killer as well (advanced task killer-free from the market). Should I turn off "background data" too? Bluetooth is off, Wifi is off, "Auto-sync" is marked, should I disable that too? "Auto-brightness" is marked, uncheck that? Animation is checked, I did uncheck that. I do not have any widgets or anything on my home screen. Not really thinking any of this matters if the screen is off but who knows?

Any help or reading links or something would be greatly appreciated.

thanks in advance.

If you think I should just go out and buy a car charger then I will if this is the nature of the beast. Maybe even get a backup battery.
