this app is killing my battery i stoped using uber since i like the ui but i mean this is crazy i even turned off auto refresh and it refreshes on opening ... took the phone off the charger to a full charge at 6:15am and at 4:15 the phone's radio turned off bc the battery wasnt enough .. all i did today was bbm and read twitter id say 10 times between that time frame ... this is ridiculous
Mine doesn't do that. I'm using the beta 37. I know UT drain my battery. Turning off the LED notification helps too. I turn off most of my LED notification like bbm/fb/twitter, ect...only important one is on like sms/email

.517 the only new things i got goin are the new bebuz 3.0 and t4bb it could be bebuzz i dunno
Since changing the LED flash intervals to 1sec from .5sec in BeBuzz 3.0, my battery has been a lil better. I'm trying out t4bb & disabled UT temporarily with update intervals set at 1hr. So far so good.
What's your update rate set to? If it's too often, that could be the reason. I don't recall the numerical value's used in T4BB but anything under 10 minutes (if there are settings for under such as Auto or 1 Minute, etc.) will kill your battery as it's constantly searching for new tweets.
Same thing happens to me--it's a mystery. I installed the first T4BB leak, then the "official" beta. Both times my battery drained quickly. I didn't leave T4BB open in the background and I had the auto-refresh turned off. As long as T4BB is installed on my device, the battery drains quickly. If a typical day is 100% down to 80% in 6 hours or so, it's more like 100% down to 55% with T4BB installed on my device. 8530, 5.0.0.508.
