3.35 Battery Killer. More like slaughterer.

Yay for new updates.

Actually, boo for it's battery performance on my phone.

I full charged my phone last night, woke up, put it in my pocket at 7:00AM, and went to school. On the way home (3:30PM, no use between that time), I turned it on to make a call, and about 30 seconds into the call, it ended, and the radio turned off. I have lowest backlight, wifi off, no bluetooth, no gps running... I'm using s2u2 and I have it set to turn off if the screen isnt unlocked after 10 secs.

I plugged in my phone and let it fully charge when I got home. I did a soft reset, checked the battery percentage at 6:00PM to make sure it was full, and I went out for dinner. I got home at about 8:30, and I'm down to 20%.

What gives?

Yes, I have already hard reset. Still seems to be eating battery like a horse.

I'm having this problem as well. What software are you using?

GPS maybe?

My battery is not better or worse, since the update but to be honest I reinstalled all of the power-saving reg tweaks and I'm on the 3200mAh high.

I am seeing this on no2chem 5053 build. I'll take it off the charger and less than a half hour later it'll drop to around 90 percent. Then it stayed at 73% today for a few hours. Weird stuff.

I noticed the same thing. I havent even used the gps function at all.

The GPS function will destroy the battery, but I have noticed this behavior with nothing running.

I am running a ROM made from DCD's 3.0.1 which is based off the new ROM if I am not mistaken. I picked mine off the charger this morning at about 7:30 AM and it is now 10:00 PM. While I haven't browsed the web or anything all that much today, I have been receiving emails pretty consistently and have had the phone on all day and have 68% batter remaining. Is there some major app you are running that maybe I am not?

Spb Mobile Shell 2???

Now that you mention it, I haven't installed any of the spb apps yet, pretty much only pocketcm, htc home, htc customizer, and audio manager.
