What's Causing My Battery Drain?
#1

I decided to let my battery run down to zero last night and let it charge while I sleep. I got to work this morning and just notice my battery is at 50%! The only change I really made yesterday was re-enabling smart actions, and setting a wifi connected trigger to turn data off. I'm thinking this may be the cause of the drain. Here are some screens.

I would ditch the chrome beta and k9 mail. Also disable any auto sync. It should give at least a 30 min battery extension
I ended up going back to Gummy on 173. When I was at home on wifi I would be fine but once on 4g it would have horrible drain. I might retry in the next week or so.

It was narrowed down to the radio constantly trying to grab a 4G signal. I'm back on Eclipse now.
Why not just put the network on CDMA Only?

That's like asking why someone wouldn't want to break up with their girlfriend because they can do it themselves.

I assume you don't line in a 4G coverage area?

I actually do live in a 4G area. However, battery life is more important to me than 4G. Since it's such a problem for the OP, I suggested he turn it off.

I have great 4G coverage. I'm sitting at work in a reinforced concrete building with 4G full bars, 74 dBm. Don't know whats up with the leak and my phone.
The leak drains my battery also. I tested it over night and it went from 100% to 78% in 6 hours. I'm on the original RAZR. My thunderbolt only lost 10% at the most sitting over night.

That's good battery life. I'm in a 4G area and my battery drops about 10% every 40 minutes. Original Razr.

When connected to 4g I would lose 50% in 4 hours. It was atrocious.
Without touching the phone? During my test i was asleep so the screen never came on.

I am on stock right now and get about 16 hours before hitting 40%. My wifes RAZR was at 15% after 4 hours today. Her stats showed that "rild" had used 56% of her battery. I have no clue what rild is lol

Google says it stands for Radio Interface Layer Daemon. Is your wife in a weak 4G area?

We are in a no 4g area and I have her phone set up to CDMA only.
