The battery life on a GOOD and QUALITY battery isnt really bad. But you are using generic japanese cell batteries which ALL suck. I have tried those bigger/better/badder batteries from ebay and they all were worse than a good reputable battery. I have a UTStar OEM battery and it will last all day on standby (unless I am in an area with no signal) and most of the evening (plus I am overclocked to 624Mhz).

So dump those fake batteries and get another UTStar or Seido battery.
