[Libuff]

Well. I upgraded to .90. And now with your schedule I would have charged twice already.

i'm still on .75 and if i pretty much leave my phone alone i'm around 60% when i get home. I leave at 5:50 and get home around 1900 hours. I'm a police officer. If i use it normally like i did my curve... it'll be dead by 5pm. My curve lasted me two days. battery is ridiculous and all the quirks on this phone, but i still love it.

[tbgreen89]

Mine lasts I'd say about 2 days maximum with abnormal usage.

[moe-blackberry]

I get up at 4:30 am and play with mine all day...still about 60% charged when I get home at 6:00 pm.

Go Steelers!!!

[anderl72]

i had issues with the battery on 0.65 and it is a lot better after upgrading

[bryson412]

Running .76 it's on a 6am using internet,emails,phone throughout the day I have 70% at 7pm returning home.My battery life has improved 10x since my one and only reboot last week.

[gadgetgirl327]

I use mIne a lot. I have an almost dead battery after 8 hours or so. I have had pretty much all the OS's and it doesn't seem to matter much. If I don't use it like most days then it will last on a full days charge. I am pretty much use to this since I have had PDA phones for 5 years now so I just accept it.

Usually 36+ hours.

[shah72]

I use mine constantly for email, phone, browser, viigo and music. When I have music going I have to recharge by lunch time or it'll be dead early evening.

[calvinosaurus]

I usually keep mine on the charger all the time unless I'm out and about. I leave for work at midnight, and use it pretty heavily for texting, BBM, AIM, email, internet, etc...and by the time I get off duty at 8AM, I have about 60-70% battery left. And if I happen to go out after work, knock off another 10%. So I'd say I use about half the battery life in a normal day of use. I'm on .75 btw

[bbcurve4life]

mine last about a day and a half

[camarofever]

im at like 60% at the halfway point of the day. i go to work at 9 and get home at 5

[jamesandyori]

Average use: 4 A.M. - 11 P.M. daily with a charge over night.

Unless you have something abnormal running, if you leave your phone alone very little charge should drain in that amount of time.

My first phone was the same way (a little worse actually)..I unplugged at 8am and by 6pm with NO usage it was dead. I tried a new battery and same result. I exchanged the phone and it's night and day difference. If I unplug at 8am and NO usage until 6pm, I'm still at 95% now. Definitely what I expect (no usage should draw very little charge). It was definitely a phone issue in my case. Before you make that assumption though, make sure you follow all the battery saving suggestions on this forum (turn backlight down, make sure you don't have global selected in network, make sure no apps are constantly pinging killing the battery, etc.)

[fonebrkr]

with the seido battery, lots of calls and emails/texts and an hour of streaming flycast, on .90, usually 30-35% remaining after 18 hours...

[Midranger]

A full charge.... about 2 days with moderate use. Heavy media use would require a daily charge.

[lvumlow]

I am running .90 and unplug my phone at 6am, use it all day with moderate to high use (I work in IT) and when I am ready to go to bed around 9pm (15 hours) I have 65% left. I really believe that people should post their phone settings so you can compare apples to apples. I do use a OEM Blackberry case so I am sure that helps as well.

Phone settings:

Backlight brightness set to 10
Backlight Timeout: 30 sec.
GPS: off
Mobile Technology: GSM/UMTS
Network Mode: 3G & 2G
LED Coverage indicator: on
Bluetooth: on
Bluetooth LED indicator: on
Memory Cleaning: enabled
Clean when Idle: yes
Idle Timeout: 30 min.

Mine last a little under 2 days with a full charge, with moderate phone/data usage.

[emmam_83]

6am - about 7:30pm (have to put it on charger).... on bbm, yahoo msgr & texting all day (literally)....

Without heavy use.... its lasted almost 3 days

[HeroBerry]

I leave the house around 7:30 AM. I use the phone pretty much all day. Emails throughout the day, internet every once in a while, I use the phone often, massive amounts of text messages. I leave work at 5:30 and when I get home I use the phone a lot more, mostly for internet and sms. When I go to bed around 1:00 AM I am at about 50%. Pretty good so far as far as smartphones go. Usually I burn through batteries like crazy. I'm running .75 OS. I just downloaded the new Viigo so we'll see if that eats up any more battery.

[BBSchase373]

I charge 5-7 hours while i sleep. on my workdays im still at least 50% when i put it on charge the next night. on my days off however, im charging sometime in the early evening. A lot heavier use for me on my off days. Can't really put it down.

[jhamilton3#CB]

My girlfriend's always seems to be running out of battery not even after a day's use.

[weathering_the_storm]

I get just about 4 days with normal usage. I also turn it off when I got to bed, say from 10 PM to 6 AM.

[808StormGuy]

I wake up at 6am and finish at 430pm everyday. I'm lucky if my OEM battery will last with 1 bar of life by 8pm
