I'm still not convinced about the "random program openings," and I'll explain why: I have both Spare Parts and TasKiller installed on my phone. I see several "random program openings" whenever I open TasKiller, and it shows improvement in my system memory when I shut them down, but when I look in Spare Parts, it's a different story.
Spare Parts lists all the applications that have been used since the phone has been on, since it's been unplugged, or since Spare Parts has been installed. Here's the thing: those programs that "randomly open" have never appeared under my Spare Parts log--so these programs aren't draining my battery at all. We've got a regular mystery on our hands, people! One of these programs is a liar, because I would think that a program that is listed as being on and using system memory would require power to run, but if it is not being listed by Spare Parts as ever being on...
My first reaction is that TasKiller is buggin' out a tad, but this could definitely be wrong. Anyway, I just thought that this was an interesting tidbit, and I think that while this may be a glitchy annoyance that could have something to do with poor battery performance, it could also just be a red herring that has nothing to do with battery issues.
