    Default Battery Life

    My battery life is awful; it lasts a full day, at the very most, two. And I hardly use it. Before I try to get a new one, would you please advise how long a full charge lasts for you?

    Two days, but I don't surf on it all day. Charge the phone every night. That's what I do.

    Default Battery life

    Turn off the gps in the options.
    I turned it on and the battery life went to ship.
    Turned it off and the life came back.

    Of course if you're going to use the Navigator in a few days....

    You can also turn off bluetooth and the green status indicator light.

    You might also want to look into your settings for incoming messages. I wen from 2 days to almost 3 1/2 after turning off vibrating alert to each and every email. Try tone alert on low.

    No signal will send any battery dead fast, because the device is burning juice looking to connect.

    I noticed that my battery life is begining to get sucky and I am convinced that it is my Jive talk. I used to surf all the time and I could go 2 days without charging it. Last night I was at 35% at 11:00 and when I woke up at 7:00 I was at 10% and I wasnt even on the phone at all. Wierd

    I'll get about a day to a day and a half with minimal usage (a couple of calls, a few texts, occasional we use, and gmail mobile polling for messages) because I sit all day inside a concrete school! As soon as I step through the doors I will go from two bars with 1xEV to none or one on 1X. It sucks!
