Hobbes:
Thanks for helping. I noticed that you answered my post on another forum as well so I figured I might as well post my answers here as well.
1) Did you reset your device after making the reg hacks? If not do so.
I did.
2) If you did, did you give the phone 5 minutes before resetting? It needs that time to apply the changes in the reg. After reseting your device go into the Reg to confirm the changes stuck.
I did and I have confirmed that the reg changes stuck.
3) There could any number of other reasons for battery drain such as screen on 100% brightness, no timeout for the screen when on battery, IR always scanning for another beam to connect to (this is a battery killer), wifi on and you don't know it, etc...
Screen is at about 75-80% brightness (don't know how to get an exact #), backlight timeout set to 30 sec on battery, IR off, wifi off.
4) If you live in a bordline reception area, the phone will be continually trying to get a connection or a better one resulting in a very short battery life.
Reception is extremely good where I am (5 bars at all times).
