Re: i know why battery life sucks so much!

Example, yesterday I played around on the phone quite a bit, probably 2 hours of games, some youtube for 10 min, bout 20 text messages, listened to sirius for 4 min, surfed the web for about 20 min, and made 4 phone calls probably totalling to about 45 min. The battery lasted from 545AM to 10PM and still had 1 bar left! But the day prior to that the battery died at 7PM with VERY LIGHT usage (about 20 texts and maybe 20 min of gaming or so, most of the time it was on standby) Oh, forgot to mention that I have email checking every 30 min as well, for both scenario's, and probalby received about 5 emails both days.
This is a constant theme with this phone for me though. I cannot replicate battery life from one day to another regardless of what I do. Its completely sparadic for me.
Hmm that seems really weird. You were in the exact same areas on both days for the same amount of time each day? If yes, then that's pretty strange.. FWIW, there are other people in Juicy's ROM thread that are also reporting inconsistencies in battery life. Some, including Juicy himself have had the phone just shut itself off at 40% remaining battery even.. All sorts of weird battery behavior everywhere
