cpu spy , battery stats and traffic monitor will all help see why the CPU is not sleeping, what is using CPU time and what apps are transmitting data.

Re: mysterious battery drain, helppppp
I found having the phone "push" email for my work Exchange account was the culprit. I setup "peak" and "off peak" retrieval, and therefore turned off the "push" retrieval. At peak times, I poll every hour (8-5 m-f), at off-peak hours, I poll every 4 hours. That was really my only change and now I can get through a work day without much trouble.
If you are not having your phone grab data all the time, then I am not sure what is draining your battery, but that is what was killing mine... - 11-05-2011, 06:45 AM #5
