for how long is this? or this is your first time?
 
So, what phone do you have? ;)

NEW FINDINGS :

My stand by battery drain reduced from around 4% per hour to 1% per hour. :D

Possible causes are Google Talk.... Samsung Dive! After stopping SamsungDive the power usage by the Android OS, Cell Standby has dropped significantly... (Someone tell Samsung??)

Also enabling 2G & 3G auto mode (GSM/WMCDA mixed mode) caused heavy drain (Due my area's non-consistent 3G coverage may be!)... I have it on 3G only now... saves tons of battery.

Played a game though (F18 Flight Simulator), Ran down my battery from 92% to 71% in 40 minutes... :(

Found out how to take screenshots on the SGS2 today.. will run for a full change today or tomorrow and post pictures later! :D

Oh Btw : this is the Galaxy S2 GT-I9100
