50% without signal

Interesting. Wonder whats killing mine like this?
Maybe once I have it for a day or 2 it will be back to normal as well. That is what I am hoping.
I used to get 2 days consistently out of this phone. Sometimes even 3. And that is with use! Im not a heavy user obviously. But this is even more surprising being that I have used my phone absolutely not at all in the last 3 hours.
With this post I rechecked my battery life, and its at 93. Weird, Seems to hold steady a bit, then plummet, then hold, then drop again.
Im still guessing that it is just my battery widget learning how to read what is going on in the phone. I know they get more accurate over time.
LOL by the time I am about to submit this post, it is at 92.

Your usage looks similar to mine. On 1.5 I would charge every 2 days and have about 35% left when I put it on the charger. This morning I was messing with the phone and battery was dropping really fast. I put it back on the charger for an hour and since then battery is great. Maybe the phone is just settling in to 2.1 during the first little while.

Yep. Good to hear. Sounds exactly the same.
Im thinking after another charge when I need it tomorrow and it should start correcting.
Just like when the phone was new, it was bad battery life, and eventually got to giving me 2 days or more.

If you are using the HTC battery widget, that may be your problem. I had horrible battery life with that thing on 2.1.
