Hi everyone,
I bought a Skyrocket back in May, and I have absolutely loved it. However...! Recently my battery has been draining in 5-6 hours, while sitting dark with no applications running. And by draining, I mean literally dropping from 100% to 5% in about 5 and a half hours. This has happened twice this week. I'll describe the two incidents:
1. I unplugged my phone at about 10:30pm, it was at 100%. I checked my applications, exited everything, turned off the screen and went to sleep. At 3:45am, it woke me up buzzing to be charged, it was at 5%. Normally it will last an entire night (8-10 hours) and lose only about 30%, 50% at the most.
2. I left work at 5:15pm, phone was at 100%. I used it a couple times to visit a website here or there. The screen was off about 98% of the time, though in this case I did have the web still running with one page open. At 10:30pm, I was getting ready to go to bed, checked the phone and it was at 20%. Again, much quicker than normal.
In both cases, I had Wireless, Bluetooth and GPS off. I almost always leave all of them off, and I am positive they were off in these situations, as I checked each time when the battery went so low. So anyway, I'm just wondering if anyone has any ideas what could be causing it to drain so quickly? As a comparison case, I unplugged the phone last night at about 1:00am, 100%. At 8:00am, as I got to work, it was at 74%. So that's 7 hours running dark, and it only dropped 26%. :|
I'm not sure what information is relevant, so:
Android Version: 2.3.6
Baseband Version: I727UCLA3
Kernel Version: 2.6.35.11
Build Number: GINGERBREAD.UCLA3
Thanks so much for any input! Appreciate it.
