Battery drain issue?
I have 76% battery left after 6 hrs of mild uses.
Received about 10+ emails and 20+ texts, 2 short calls.
Took some pictures, full auto sync enabled for 4 accounts.

I would say that the battery life is pretty good.

Than do others make a mistake?
Do you have Sony weather widgets on screen?
I can't make it work that good.



I got the weather widget, set to update every hr.
Timescape widget is also running with the YouTube widget and the calender widget.

Ok. Than I don't know. My phone has Data, WiFi and Bluetooth off on idle.
And just in the pocket, through few hours, 2 or 3 maybe, it sucks 3 or 4%.

With identical usage pattern on Arc, without widgets though but with the same apps
I get much better results.

But you need to give the battery a few charge cycles first.Am I right?? But I do fear the 1,750mAh battery or whatever the capacity is will not be enough to power that HD screen & dual core for long

I believe it will be enough. It's more than Arc, double core is at times - AFAIK - less power hungry.

But let's see how is it after a week.

P.S. One more good thing:
Gallery shows real pictures, not renders.

Install CPU Spy and see how much the CPU is working. If it does not show Deep Sleep with a value like 85% or above when used lighty, then something is wrong with your software.

Seems your battery drain is software related. A couple of pages back I reported that an XDA member reported the battery went up once FourSquare was uninstalled. Perhaps you should try that. You also reported that Picasa got stuck in some way. This could be a possible issue as well It is possible it constantly tries to reconnect or sync.

Perhaps you could try to restore the software of the phone and then just leave it as is without trying to sync your calendar, contacts etc for a while and see how it goes with the battery.

Picasa sync problem is resolved so no prob here.
I don't use any auto sync and I've never used Foursquare.

After the night the value of deep sleep was 88%.
Now I just use my phone for 5 minutes and it's still 87%.
I guess it's exactly what you were asking about.....

I left only one weather widget on homescreen with very long auto update period, we'll see.

@doministry did you discharge your battery compleatly for once or twice?
I have battery problems with Ray even after 10 charges when others reported great battery life. Then I waith for full discharge followed by more than 8h charge cycle and battery life was doubled immediately.

I thought that was old unnecessary trick these days, but it works.

I have no idea about mistery draining, but it`s more often software or network related you know.

Actually yes I did discharge it once by accident.

I don't know...

I see Amazon UK have pushed back thier stock until 19th March. Hope this means it's not delayed again for the UK.
