I guess this means I am NOT alone. but there is a tower like 2 miles from my house. so what do we do?
What ROM are you running?
This is the main cause of your higher than average battery drain. The phone is constantly searching for a signal. I think it does so more aggressively than some other phones and this makes it power hungry. If this is in fact the case, there's not much you'll be able to do until Sprint updates the radio software unfortunately.
