Default Battery Drain

Could anybody help with this. Is there an app that monitors battery drain and identifies the program responsible. My curve 8530 battery drains in about 3 hours while not being used. Its connected to wifi and by bluetooth to playbook.

the program will not tell you the app
but you can use tiny meter, its free and in app world

if you use facebook... close it

I would back up your data, wipe the phone clean with a security wipe and restore your info, and see how it works,

I'd be curious, shutdown BT on your PB and see how long your battery runs on your 8530 sans active bridge connection.

I've noticed negligible battery drain differences on my 9930 when I have my bridge active and when I don't.

Just sounds like the battery to me. Do you have another one you can try.
