Can the TB be used as a phone?

If you are being serious we could probably help you. That is terrible, and it has happened to me at least once with every phone I've owned, so I believe you.

Does that happen every night?

I'm dead serious. My phone has less than 6 hours of standby.
I plug it in every night before bed. If I don't it will be dead by morning.

I just installed the Task Killer a couple weeks ago to see if it would help. I've uninstalled it.

I also turned off all my syncs except for Gmail today, to see if that helps.

I bounce between 3g/4g at work, but have no 4g at home.
Display is at about 30%.

It's an uneasy feeling to know that if I don't have access to electricity, I'll be incommunicado in a few hours.

330hrs on standy by??
:icon_eek:
I think that may be a typo because 330 hrs is like 2 full weeks.
Personally, i dont think there is ANY phone that lasts that long.

My experience is that I get pretty bad battery drain at my home because it's in a weak signal area - and I'm talking cell signal (I can't get 4G reliably either, but I'm on wifi at home). It can easily drain from 100% to 70% in a couple of hours. However, at my office where I have strong 4G and cell signal, the battery can last all day and be around the 70% mark.

Maybe I'll do a test tonight, but my guess is that my battery would also be next to dead if I left it unplugged at night.
