Mine is terrible! First of all, seem to have trouble charging all the way: the minute I get notification that battery is fully charged, I unplugged from charger (Samsung charger that came with the phone), and the battery status immediately dropped to 93%. I plugged it back in and then walked away for about an hour (so didn't hear when the notification came on), the phone shows fully charged, unplugged, and shows 98%. I checked background apps, and nothing was running.
So 4 hours later, I am down to 75%, and I look at the battery use, this is what it shows:
Disply 62% (16m 2s)
voice calls 14% (7m 19s)
wifi 12% (3 h 57 m 5s)
cell standby 8% (3 h 37m 5s)
phone idle 4% (3 h 41 m 2s)
that's it. I know I had email that came in, and I had sent 1 short email. but that's not showing up in the list (I use K9 and Gmail)
I thought with FROYO we can see what app takes up battery? Actually in 2.1 I had more info when I go to battery use.
so at this rate, I won't make it home without having to plug it in. My husband has HTC Inspire and he leaves his Wifi on all the time....he doesn't talk much (20 mins tops) but get emails all the time (and plays some chess), his battery is usually still at 70% at 7pm!
I hear people say that their battery life is better post FROYO update, but mine is going the different direction. Is there something wrong with my phone? I've been happy with it before the the update (stock, not rooted): GPS was decent (need to turn on wireless network), but after update my GPS was messed up, had to install the GPS restore from market and seem to have fixed it.
BTW, here are all my info:
firmware version: 2.2
basebad version: I897UCKB1
Kernel version: 2.6.32.9
build number: FROYO.UCKB1

That app really kills the battery for me.
