Horrible battery drain
 

Ok I pulled my phone off the charger at 9 am at 100% and by 9:30 pm was at 2%. All I have done on my phone is talk for about an hour on bluetooth and about 2 total without, a couple texts and viewed a couple pics sent to me. I'm running no2chem's 5066 and s2u2 right now and thats it. Any idea's on why and can anybody please help.

Do you have any email accounts set up to check for email at set time increments? Is your bluetooth on all the time?

Re: Horrible battery drain
 

no email and I shut bluetooth off when I'm done with it,also it seems to charge back up pretty fast as well almost full charge in less than 2 hours

Turn your backlight down, make sure that beams are off.

Those are the two largest battery killers IMO.

Might want to look at the shut-down timing in S2U2 as well.

The backlight will cut your battery life to nada if it's left unchecked.

s2u2 was set to 10 seconds and today the sames thing happened 100% in morning but today some internet usage and battery is down to6% by 8 pm any help is appreciated this is getting annoying and is it possible that its a bad battery......got the phone about a month and a half ago off ebay and phone was brand new

Anything is possible...I've had a bad battery in the past. Do you have insurance on it? If so, you can take it to a sprint store and they'll swap out the battery for you. Another completely random thought...is your storage card working ok? I had an issue in the past where I was having horrible battery drain all of a sudden. I had the phone replaced and the problem still occurred. I noticed that my sd card wasn't showing up in file explorer. The card had been corrupted somehow and the phone was constantly trying to read it, causing excessive battery usage. Took the card out and issue was resolved. Probably a longshot, but like I said, anything can happen.

make sure you go to settings, system, memory, running programs, stop all!! that will kill it too

Re: Horrible battery drain
 

the memory card is reading but I will have to try that to be sure.....anything could help.....also have had phone plugged in for a half hour and its already up to 40% charge....will probably be at 100% within 45 minutes to an hour more of charging

just an update have had my phone plugged in for an hour and a half and is reading 100% but is still showing that it is charging.....any thoughts on this?
