Good news. Having moved on from the battery life itself, which is good unless the phone is defective, I have begun monitoring that Data Connection. Preliminary information says "watch that Data Connection." It has some issues, both in battery drain and answering phone calls. If it is on, even while inactive, it can (but not always) start a sustained battery drain. If it is on, even if inactive, it always causes at least a 2 to 3 second delay before my Answer button will work. If you do not hit the Answer button on the first ring or two, the call will go to voicemail.


Your RSS find was a good one because it turned on the Data Connection when it wanted. Also, I have GPS Today installed and I had to change the settings in it so that it would not automatically connect.
