Have you watched any power saving vids on You tube? Have GPS turned off and not running background animations? Rip Joe Pa

10% in 8 hours, is not bad, Here is a screenshot of mine, in 11hrs only 7%

WiFi on all the time, also 3 emails acounts in push config.

I think a drop of 10% in 8 hours would be nice. I have been watching my galaxy for the past 3 hours. I have only gotten 1 email and it is sitting at 69% - so that is 31% in 3 hours. I know I can reduce some of that if I use Juice Defender but I noticed I don't get my emails at the time I should. From all the different forums a lot of people are not happy with their battery life but my work purchased this one for me so I am pretty much stuck with it. I own an iPhone 4s and the battery during the same about of time has only dropped 7% - sitting at 93% right now. I have even used it more this morning.

Any ideas will be helpful.

10% in 8 hours is slightly high, but not too bad. If you're not on wifi and you're in a weak-signal area, that may be fine.

In moderate signal, or on wifi with a firmware that doesn't have the severe bugs UCKK6 has, you should see well below 1%/hour.

If in airplane mode - you should only lose a few percent per day.

1%-2% an hour is about the normal.. Even with a custom ROM/kernel that is still about the normal....
