Allright, sorry for the swedish ;) but as you can see the "phone" seems to be draining way too much battery. Anyone have any clues how to fix this, i guess this is not normal? :s

Sigh.

The phone didn't drain "70% of your battery".
70% of the battery usage is due to your phone. Since your phone had been on for 10 hours and has almost 30% charge, that just means you haven't used anything else.

Click on the phone symbol next time to see how long you actually spent talking on the phone. Like I have done below. I find that 1 hour of phone conversation is equivalent to almost 2 hours of screen time.

35% left with 13 hours of fairly heavy use (equivalent of 4-5 hours of screen time). Perfectly good for a normal working day I think.

That would explain it, but shouldnt those kinda things count towards the OS and perhaps screen? less than 30% battery after 10 hours is kinda bad for not using the phone much isnt it?

Are you checking emails and texts throughout the day? Are You on a 3G connection during this time? How is the signal strength? How is the screen brightness set? How often are apps syncing in the background? Lots of variables.
