I hope someone mentioned above puts out a fix for this. I'm tired of recharging my battery every 4 - 6 hours off of standby. I don't want to hear about any tweaks and about closing widgets cause i run almost all of them. This should have been adressed before the phone was put out into the wild and fixed. This is just insane that i need to keep a house charger and have to own 2 car chargers to keep my phone on. What good is a phone that can do everything but dies in several hours after barely using it? I'm not even in a 4g area.
Yes some of you say you get good battery life, but there is alot that don't. Like mentioned above i use my widgets. I shouldn't have to turn them off to get a half day life. I should be able to get atleast a day out of the battery.
I do not want to spend extra money on a bigger, heavier, no protective case fitting battery. I def give it to the iphone on this one...and i hate giving them any type of credit.
Please FIX this asap.

So what you're saying is that you're paying for all these cool things, you should get to use them and magically expect to get fantastic battery life? OK, double the thickness and get one of those 3500mAh batteries when they come out from SEIDIO.
You seem to misunderstand how batteries work. Batteries are not cumulative. It's not 4 hours of talk + 4 hours of web + 4 hours of texting + blah blah blah with everything turned on. They work that you get x hours of "activity" based on some combination of things you want to do.
You can have your cake, you can eat it too, but I'm not saying it's the best tasting cake you'll ever eat. Sometimes if you want it all, you gotta give a little back.

I understood the reasoning initially but now.....10 fee for all the great things your phone can do, but if you want your battery to last over 6 hours we recommend that you don't use all the features that we used to argue the $10 fee?

I justify it by rooting the phone and wifi tethering to my heart's content.
