*another* Weird Battery Issue

[zachnelson]

I got a new thunderbolt because my other had a dead pixel, however I kept the battery, SD card and charger from the first one.

I got only 8 hours of battery life today, that is gps off, 3g off, only wi-fi, screen at 30%.

Display is 49%
Cell standby at 20%
Phone idle 18%
Android system 5%
Wi-Fi 4%
Android OS 2%
com.htc.launcher 2%

My other thunderbolt got at least 12-15 hours with the same stuff above, except I never saw such high numbers for cell standby and phone idle.

Is this normal?

Sounds like rogue process or network issue

Hmm, well I restored from google, and haven't downloaded any new apps yet (I just got the replacement yesterday), so it have all the old apps on my other thunderbolt. Perhaps a network issue, but if I have the mobile network turned off could that really be it?

It just now died on me at 8 hours 10 minutes uptime while I was trying to install the current app. Usually when I wake up I restart my phone off the charger so it's all fresh and new for each day, so the only thing messing with battery might have been the blockbuster app, but wouldn't that show in the battery usage percentage log?

I've noticed this drain too with only the call network on, no data at all

So far today my Cell Standby is 8% and Phone Idle is 6%, so yours seem high but i wouldn't actually know what normal would be to be honest

My screen was off most the day as well because it was in my pocket.

My cell standby is 18% and phone idle 16%, so i'm not far off from you. I use the extended battery but havent noticed any considerable battery drain. Haven't charged my phone in 2 days and I'm still at 47% battery. And that is with screen still on auto, 4g off most of the time, everything full on sync'ing.

That's insane.

Alright got home and got the mAh app up and running and my phone is using 100 mAh while idle, is this normal?
