I left my phone running without MS, in Flight Mode and Clarity for two hours and the battery stays at 91%. Any suggestions what's wrong in normal mode?

Update - I restarted the phone and left it one hour more and it stayed at 90%. Then I restarted it again and went in Normal mode. The battery imediately fell down to 87%. After one more restart it went to 86%. This confuses me a lot.
Can someone explains me why do this happen?
The result - 16% for 7 hours!!!
Where am I going with this phone?!

I just remembered a problem with my network a while ago. They were upgrading and this cause poor reception and services and our phones were getting low very quickly.
You said the battery remained steady in Flight mode. Well, see if other people are getting the same problem on this network. Otherwise it could be a problem with your phone antenna so have it checked.

That's what I'm worried about.
If this is the problem, can it be repaired?
However, I left the phone for 8 hours in Flight mode and the battery stays at 72%, which isn't normal too. I restarted the phone and went in Flight mode again. Now the battery was 69%. Good. I restarted it again and went in normal mode. It was still 68%.
So is this problem with the antenna? Yesterday from 9AM to 9PM the battery fell with 26%.
One more sign - in the office I normally put the phone near the speakers and sometimes we hear something like like morse code. Yesterday I started to hear this sound every minute, which is too often compared to some weeks ago.

To report another symptom - the battery falls down in this way 72% -> 68% -> 67% -> 65% -> 63% -> 60% -> 53%
, not progressive.
And to add something - I went to some shops and ordered a new one. I went without the phone, only the battery. When I put the battery in the phone again ( after 1 hour outside ), it was already 53% ( it was 60% 1 hour ago ). So the problem might is in the battery.

Well I'm not sure I can help you any further. But there is a chance that the problem is with your network/signal strength since you said you hear interference (phone trying to connect) more often. Another thing is to make sure that you have disabled 3G mode (uses lots of battery). Then reinstall/update the firmware.
If these don't solve the problem, I fear you have to get it checked and repaired.

I'll try with new battery ( I ordered it today and it'll come on Monday ). I hope this will fix the problem, because if it doesn't, I'll have to buy a new phone. In Bulgaria it's not recommend to give someone to repair the phone, because I'll give it with one and take it with 10 other problems. There aren't any good repair centres for mobile phones here.
I really hope the problem to be in the battery.

Проблема не е в батерията, нито в телефона или антената!
Проблема е в клетката на оператора.
Понеже вкъщи съм на "границата" на 2 клетки, когато е свързан с едната (по-далечната) батерията си кара нормално, когато телефона е в друго местоположение (свързан към другата клетка) батерията заминава доста бързо.
Случвало ми се e на 3G батерията да свърши от 100% > 0% и да ми изключи телефона - връщам на Само GSM и какво да видя -> отново 100% батерия (а преди това се изключи пред очите ми).
Откакто взеха да пускат HSDPA ми се появи този проблем с батерията и то с определени клетки.
Съжалявам за превода на английски, но не съм учил.
Translate with google(and me) :
The problem isn't battery, not with phone, not with antenna!
The problem is providers cell.
In home i'm limited on 2 cells, when phone is connected to distant cell - battery work normal,when is connected to others cells - goes pretty quick.
Happened with phone on 3G battery end from 100% > 0% and phone switch off.
Then turn on phone and go in settings to set Only GSM - battery again is 100% full
Since HSDPA exist - begin my problems with some cells (K800 haven't HSDPA).
Sorry about the translation in english.

I think the problem is in me, because the other people around me don't have that problem. In addition, I use "Only GSM" all the time. And I have that problem everywhere.
I might get my new battery today and report you the results tomorrow.

Today I didn't take my phone with me but I continue to hear the interference sound in the office - maybe from the other phones around. So this theory is wrong - my phone doen't try to connect more often.
