So my battery has been draining at least 10% an hour when usually I can last about a day and a half on the battery when not using it that much.
This seemed to happen right after I moved about a hundred miles and I noticed that I was getting the 50% without a signal issue. But I turned on and off airplane mode and that seemed to solve it.
At this time I also accidentally left my phone charging under a heavy pillow and overheated the phone. I thought the battery was shot, bought a new battery and still have the problem.
However, I live right outside of Chicago and both times I have traveled into Chicago within the past 2 days, the battery life returns back to normal even when I return back home. However, if I turn off the phone and turn it back on the battery is back to draining. Could this have something to do with the cell towers or my signal? My service doesn't seem to change despite how the battery life performs. Do I have to change my PRL?
I think I have diagnosed part of the problem now. For some reason every time the 3G is working is when the battery drains, and when the symbol isn't present at the top of the screen the battery is back to normal. Any clue why all of the sudden the 3G drains the battery?
