Battery Issue

Hey! Just got the phone at Radioshack for cheap, I am very pleased with it, except for one odd thing! I charged my phone before I slept and let it sit over night, when I got up approximately 5 hours later, my battery was low. Why did this happen?

P.S. The only thing I can think of is that I left AIM mobile on?

Thanks in advance,

Make sure you dont have gps, bluetooth or wifi on if you dont need it. Also check your notification settings for emails, facebook & twitter change them so that they check every 30 min or more
 
How do I check the notification settings again? Doesn't appear to be under "settings" that I can find at all.
 
AIM mobile could have been the problem because I don't think instant message apps allow the phone to sleep since they are constantly checking for new messages. You could test it by rebooting the phone, then leaving AIM mobile open, and checking the phone's awake time later
 
To change update frequency, Open the mail app, then: Menu>more >settings>send and receive>set download frequency
