Re: How would you rate the battery life on your TP2?

man, i'm starting to worry about my tp2. the battery life seems to be horrible. i took it off the charger at 11 this morning and then had it hooked up to my computer for maybe half an hour. had 1 two minute conversation, maybe sent and received 4 texts and browsed the web for 10 minutes at most, the rest of the time has been on standby and i'm at about 50%. i have push internet off, no automatic updates of any sort, and running at about 47% memory usage with no programs running.

i always thought that the battery life just wasnt that good on it, but all of you are saying its really good. my mogul could last 2 days+ easy with no charge and i bet my tp2 would only last 24 hours tops with extremely minimal usage. could there be something wrong with my device?

Re: How would you rate the battery life on your TP2?

If I could get my phone to stop turning on every 2 minutes by itself battery life would probably be much better. With no background programs running I can lose 50 percent of my battery life at times by just leaving the phone idle for a few hours because of this. This has always been an issue with HTC WM phones on Sprint. Thought they'd have found a fix by now.

Re: How would you rate the battery life on your TP2?

I thought mine was good until the last couple of days...I had 2 bars about an hour ago and now all of a sudden it is telling me to charge the battery...it took 11 hours to go from 100% to 50%...is it possible to walk into a Sprint store and get a battery replacement?

Re: How would you rate the battery life on your TP2?

If a device like the TP2 can go 18 hours without a charge that's enough for me. My Titan struggled, but the TP2 does it easily. I see no reason not to charge your phone while you're asleep. So if it can make it thru all the hours I'm awake with heavy usage, then I'd say it's great.

Re: How would you rate the battery life on your TP2?

So far this phone lasts a lot longer than my Mogul does. I can usually go all day without going under 40%. Thats working 12 hour shifts with a lot of web browsing. Yesterday was the first day I had to plug it in at work. Was doing a lot of browsing, some video on Skyfire, and played with SPB MS 3.5 for quite a while. Will see how it goes today.

I think it's much improved over the TP1. I'm looking forward to the 6.5 upgrade... we "should" get even more improvement. Just my hopes though.

Re: How would you rate the battery life on your TP2?

I'm getting a replacement TP2 because the phone buttons (especially the end call button) starting coming loose. Any slight pressure at the top of the buttons will cause them to lift up at the bottom. (I haven't seen anyone else report this problem though.) We'll see how the battery is my next TP2 holds up.
