Just got this from an old Tips & Trick for PPC6700 (works for my XV6700), but who knows it worked on Titan too.
I got it from http://pdaphonehome.com/forums/ppc-6...mpilation.html
Credits goes to the person who compile the tips & tricks.

Active Sync Solution to Battery Drain Problem

think I have a solution to the Battery drain problem with the XV6700 PDA phone. It looks like Ative sync is trying to come on and sync draining the power from our units. Talked to a verizon tech. who provided the available info. Hope it helps. Sure has been an irritant not being able to trust my phone. Here's the instructions:

Go to program files
Go to active sync
Go to menu
Go to add server source (add a fake server and settings)
Once that is finished
Go to Schedule and set to manual
Go to options and delete exchange server from options

Working good so far. For the first time I have had 90% power all day long. Always before it would go down to 60% power or less in one day with no phone calls or gaming.

Please note that some have reported this "trick" is not compatible with the NEW Sprint AKU2/MSFP Rom update. Others have reported it works with the ROM update if you turn off the network time sync under phone settings

EDIT : In my opinion the safe way is to close/kill activesync every time ppc unpluged from usb/desktop or whenever after softreset.
