    In the past two days i've been having major issues with my 8330 battery dying extremely fast. After fulling charging it and unplugging it, the battery life will go down 40% in only 20 minutes with no use at all (no texts/browsing/email/apps/etc...) I used to be able to go all day with very heavy use and still have 30-40% left. My phone has the upgraded seidio battery as well. Any help is much appreciated

    Are you traveling? The batteries are known to drain faster when out of your normal usage area. The other night I drove 2 hours out of town with full battery and it was dead maybe 8 hours later.

    I haven't been traveling. I've been at home here in Pittsburgh so it's not like I'm even in an area with little/no service.
    I'm using the standard Verizon theme as well

    I know you said you had no apps running but did you close them properly? Google maps drains my battery really fast (not 20 minutes though) when I forget to close it.

    Even with apps open, your battery should not drain that quickly in 20 minutes. It's probably a faulty battery...

    You have a bad battery cell. Basically its' registering charged, but the actual cell is bad, and its not holding the charge.

    Replace it.
