Hey guys,

I'm creating this as new topic to create awareness for those who had been having problem with the battery draining fast. Feel free to nuke or move this if this is not appropriate. Sorry for that.

Anyway, my story is since this morning I have been having problem with the battery draining, and I haven't even JB it yet.
It was full the night before, and dead when I woke up. (5 hours)
I tried restore it from backup, JB it, set all the services off (e.g. push, wifi, edge, location service) and kill all processes running behind but to no avail.

Alas, I tried something I haven't tried behind and it actually solved my battery draining issue!!

What I did was simply turning off the notifications for Tap Tap Revenge, Mafia Wars, Live Racing and so on. You can find these from the Settings > Notifications.
Below are the sample images of what I had experienced.

Here I had 3G and all the services turned off.

Problem not solved. I lost more than 15% in one and half hour. I tried turning 3G, because I was thinking perhaps it been trying hard to boost antenna receiver since I have been receiving poor reception. Calls can't get through to my phones. (Reception was fine on the day before, same spot, same place, same time - different day)  mad.gif
