yeah it was covered....by Vancer.....it is due to the power widgets.....turn off 4g from the menu/setting/wireless page, then when u reboot, it will stay off.

I installed a kernel that is supposed to give me better battery, and it did charge better, but my discharge rates are still as bad. My usage comes a lot from standby. From unplugging when I got up to arriving at work (2 hours and 15mins) I had lost 15% of my battery already. Here is my usage:
Android Sys- 29%
Cell Stdby- 30% (Time w/o signal 0%)
Phone Idle- 23%
WiFi- 10%
Display- 8%

Sure, I was on facebook and the internet, but that just seems silly.

I'm going to downgrade my radio to 2.15.00.09.01 and update my profile and PRL(again) to see if that helps at all.

Anyone else have any other ideas?
whenever I see Android system high like that (over 10%) I notice my battering draining faster.

the other day I posted I was having good battery, 74% after 13 hrs or something....I must have jinxed myself, cuz it has sucked lately.

yeah, I'm still on 1.90....I'll be keeping my eye on others results of downgrading.
