Awful RAZR M Battery Life! Help!

[redbouche]

So my wife has a Razr M. This thing use to last well over a day even under pretty heavy usage. It's about a year old now, and the battery life has gradually done into the tank. She takes it off the charger in the morning, uses it for an hour(ish) for browsing during the work day, and 9 hours later it's dead. I had her unplug it an not use it and see how long it lasted. In about 18 hours it dropped from 100% to 10% with no usage other than 1 text message. It is on wifi at both work and home. I checked the battery stats and after sitting idle for 18 hours it's 36% wifi, 22% phone idle, and 12% cell standby. So it doesn't appear there is anything else going on there? The appears to be draining completely in less than a day just idling on wifi. Any ideas? Does she just have a bad battery? Oh, and she is also running juice defender.

My M is also about a year old now and the battery is no where near what it used to be. I can easily lose ~60% of charge overnight just idling.

Might want to check if location reporting is enabled. That will eat battery fast!

I've noticed unusual battery life as well. When check to see what is using power it's always display and Android OS at the top. Nothing else really significantly using power

Don't charge it overnight if that's what your doing I also noticed turning off data when your not using it really helps the battery
