Does your phone operate in an area where there signal strength is an issue? Also I see that the 3G and Wi-Fi both have been turned ON on your device. I would recommend you 1) To turn off the 3G, it does take a huge drain on battery life.
2) To turn off the Wi-Fi when not using it.

This should make a considerable difference.

Well, if you use it 5 hours straight with the screen on at 100 percent display 5 hours is about right mathematically. It takes 15 percent of ure battery to illumante the lcd for 60 minutes non stop. However if you leave ure phone and don't use it for 5 hours then there is a issue.

I've replaced the battery on my bold after 2.5 yrs. New battery also felt was being drained quickly at first, but now is doing much better.

Things I have done to help is not have WiFi on all the time. I have updated to v5.0.0.900 (Bundle 1626, Platform 5.2.0.89) from Rogers. Did a few battery pulls to make sure the os is stable. I also have made sure my LED is set to off for all of my email accounts, BBM, texts and twitter. I only have an alert sound for BBM and work email.

I also installed Battery Booster Pro. It has numerous times alerted me to my camera remaining on in the background which helped prevent draining the battery.
