The battery of the Desire is really the major concern right now.

- I fully charged my Desire before going to sleep, by the time I wake up it only left with 70%. (I have turn off everything but left the data 2G/3G on)
- Continuous using browser, game and email checking (push email) - my Desire can only last 3 hours max
- With just data on, it drops 2% every 5 minutes - that is putting the phone in standby mode
- Even while charging using the car charger, I put up GPS, Bluetooth and Data - the battery keeps dropping while charging
- I charge 2 times on average on a daily basis

This is how crazy the battery life - something must be done, I am thinking of now getting a spare battery, how much is an original SIS spare battery for Desire?

Try turning the data connection off and see whether it makes a difference.. I guess some app is running in the background and constantly using data..

As for the car charger, how much is the rating? most car charger i saw are only rated 0.5A.. I guess not enough juice when you're using GPS, bluetooth and data at the same time.. lol..

i_bony: Firstly the QR Code for Google Open Spot returned a 404 - and I couldn't find it in the Android Market. Add to the fact that GPS is inaccurate indoors, and my office parking lot has no reception (so I can't get a Google Map downloaded) and that all works against the app.

Oh and plus I don't drive, heh.

For Google Open Spot, your phone needs to be rooted and using market access/enabler as the Google Open Spot is currently only available to US, Canada and Holland..

I really love this part from their second page:

QUOTE
According to the spec sheet, the iPhone 4's Retina Display is actually superior - but to our eyes we prefer looking at things on the Galaxy S.

Winner: Samsung Galaxy S


and this one on page 3:

Winner: Samsung Galaxy S (although iPhone 4 if you're right-handed)


LOL!
