Anyones battery actualy last a full day?

Im trying to see if anyones battery last an actual full day, or around how long. I know I wake up at 7 in the morning and unplug my phone. I dont even use it alot to be honest lately,. maybe talk for 20mins a day if that, and I always turn the screen off when Im done talking. But I have one battery block by 1pm and the phones completely dead around 3pm. Is this normal? Its a brand new phone because my last one broke. I just got it about a week ago.

Re: Anyones battery actualy last a full day?

I have no complaints with my battery life. Today for example, I have received over 20 emails from my personal account and another 20 from work, both are push accounts. Have talked for about an hour and a half, and even spent about 30 min playing games. I unplugged it at 8AM, it is now 5PM and i am at 43% battery life.

Re: Anyones battery actualy last a full day?

Aww man, I dont understand then what the deal is. I plug it into my pc overnight to charge it, run the sprint "leaked" rom, few aps like weatherpanel, slide2lock, and ultimatelaunch. Keep it in the pouch thing that came with it. After a call, hit the top botton to turn the backlight off before I put it away. I just dont understand

Re: Anyones battery actualy last a full day?

A lot of things could be to blame. I usually find it to be coverage. If you are in an area that has low coverage, or you start to roam a lot.... it is going to suck the battery.

I get great battery life while I am at work. I have about half of the signal bars, average 75+ emails from work (push email), get and reply to texts, and get the occasional phone call. After all that, I leave work w/ ~80% of my battery. Once I get home, the battery starts to drain. I moved to an area that is really weak. Zero bars (still have coverage) to two bars tops. I'm lucky to go to bed w/ 40% lol

I'll second this response. There is one room in my house that gets absolutely horrid cellular coverage, both on my XV6900 and my T-Mobile Blackberry 8800. A test that I did in all rooms of the house - I charged the phone immediately upon getting home, then unplugged before bed and placed the phones in each room.

Come morning, I checked and documented each phone's battery.
Blackberry has no percentage indicator, just 6 bars, 6 being a fully charged battery.

Blackberry does push email - I average 18-20 emails a night. These nights were no different.

XV6900 checks Gmail every hour - I average 3-4 emails a night. Again, these nights were no different.

No calls came in any of the nights I tested. No outgoing calls were made.

Master bedroom:
XV6900 - 90%
BB - 6 bars

2nd bedroom:
XV6900 - 100%
BB - 6 bars

3rd bedroom:
XV6900 - 90%
BB - 5 bars

Master Bath:
XV6900 - 90%
BB - 6 bars

2nd bath:
XV6900 - 90%
BB - 5 bars

Dining room:
XV6900 - 60%
BB - 3 bars

Computer room:
XV6900 - 90%
BB - 5 bars

Kitchen:
XV6900 - 80%
BB - 4 bars

Garage:
XV6900 - 80%
BB - 5 bars

As you can see - in the dining room, the battery life was significantly less than in the other rooms.

I can't walk through the dining room without the signal degrading horribly, in about 50% of the cases the call was dropped. This has been the case with Sprint, Verizon, AT&T, T-Mobile, Nextel, Boost, Metro PCS, and an Alltel phone from out of town.

Feel free to do a similar test in your house - may be interesting to see what differences you'll see from room to room! Of course, your milage may vary!
