Re: Exploring (poor)Battery life further.............

UPDATE:

I removed my taskbar and battery driver which shows increments of +-1% and soft reset the phone a few times, it was weird because it was impossible at first to remove the driver and taskbar, finally it did. I then reinstalled and soft reset and plugged into power outlet, my battery was now charging at 400 mA instead of my usual 950 mA, of course it sounds like a faster charge but my drain was also above 120 at idle and 300 to 400 just reading this website (very odd). Now i idle at 66 down to 50 mA and my charge is actually charging better, and more reasonably at 400 mA with no charge bursts and drain bursts, i will do further tests, however what i did to unload capacitors is remove the battery for 5 minutes. Its like the first time you bought the phone, and need to condition it. No tweaks necessary although may be helpful thanks calkulin post.
