I'll see what the batter life is and report if I received texts/emails or phone calls.

I did not do the BT test the other day, I needed to actually use my phone. I've ordered a new battery and cradle/charge kit, but I'd still like to help figure out if the battery life can be improved in some manner.
Phone was at 15% by 7:30pm, I unplugged from power @ 9:30am.

Doesn't seem much different than actually using it. (minus excessive data and/or BT). I did get a couple voice mails I had to check along with texts and some emails (Activesync and AUTD run).

It literally sat there and did nothing most of the day and it STILL can barely manage a 12 hour run.

Tomorrow I'm going to turn the data connection off and see if there's any difference in life. I will also minimally use it.
