Battery problem? Me too...
Mystery Drain? ~ The other morning, I charged my 6800 to 100% full battery and the phone mysteriously went completely to 0% and shut off on me within two hours of non-activity. No intentional (or pocket) calls were placed, nor was there any record of any calling activity. No applications were running (really), the device was locked, and the screen switched off with the power button. I recharged the battery that afternoon and have been at least five days without any similar issue.
It has happened again though, sorta. Last night, I charged the mogul for hours until it was completely full, then I unplugged it based on the four hour comment and I went to sleep. This was around 5 AM. When I woke up around 11 AM, the battery on the phone was 20%... I did not have any programs running, just like before. No activesync, nothing at all. I did not place or receive any phone calls during this time or use any other function of the phone. It was simply switched off and placed on a table next to my bed. WiFi switch is off, bluetooth is always off. I don't ever run those things if I'm not using them. I have the HTC Home plugin, X-button and LED Killer 3 installed and that's it.
If there are any PPC gurus reading this post, please help to advise me if it would be a good idea to exchange my phone or purchase the Total Equipment Protection plan from sprint, because I'm really nervous. This is the first time I've owned any type of PDA-phone and I simply cannot afford a replacement. I've read a whole lot in a variety of forums, but I am still very new to this and I've only got about a week to make any changes before my 30 day support period is over.
