OK my battery update.

This is very strange...

I've had three experiences now where the phone has been fully charged at the end of the work day, but with maybe one hour of music and otherwise just sitting overnight, has been left with less than 30% charge.

This weekend I have not needed to touch it. I made two short calls, sent a few messages, listened to an hour of music, and used the web to download the free Casino Royale theme and apply it. I also had a play with the settings to change it from vibrating with alarms to not. That's about it.

The battery this morning was at 57% still. Fab.

So how come on one hand it will die overnight but here will still be under halfway gone over the whole weekend?

The only thing that appears to be different is that the handfree was not plugged in over the weekend, but is usually left in overnight during the week.

I wonder if anyone else can have a try with that or perhaps have any suggestions or experience.

Here it is...be sure to use MP4 for container and MPEG-4 for output format. I normally use 25 fps, but you can go to 30 fps (29,9...) like i showed

Lets see if the strange formatting kills me again...

Battery update.

So yesterday I posted that the battery had lasted all weekend without dropping below 50%. This morning the phone, after the usual 30minutes music, was down to 19%. That's a drop of almost 40% overnight.

The difference, it seems, was that I had left the handfree plugged in. Thinking about it it makes sense that there must be current flowing through to the remote control otherwise how does it know to start playing music etc? Maybe this is more of a drain than it should be?

I'll try doing more with this idea but I'd like to know if anyone else experiences the same thing.

@Buttoneer

Have you made sure there are no programs left running overnight? i.e. go into TaskManager and close all open/running apps. I heard the walkman app uses a lot of battery even when no music playing just running.

Orgazmic, yes I do this every time I switch the music off and put it down for the evening. I did this because it is what I thought of first. But I still get variable results overnight.

It's at 74% now after being fully charged at 5pm yesterday, three sms's and a phone call plus about an hour of music. That's OK, as far as I am concerned.

I'm going to leave the headset plugged in tonight and see whether that has a battery killing effect.

Dunno what's going on there, I checked my w950i last night and it went from 63% at night to 59% the next morning. Not that that helps you with your problem. You might have got unlucky and got a duff battery.
