Well I'm not sure I can help you any further. But there is a chance that the problem is with your network/signal strength since you said you hear interference (phone trying to connect) more often. Another thing is to make sure that you have disabled 3G mode (uses lots of battery). Then reinstall/update the firmware.

If these don't solve the problem, I fear you have to get it checked and repaired.

I'll try with new battery ( I ordered it today and it'll come on Monday ). I hope this will fix the problem, because if it doesn't, I'll have to buy a new phone. In Bulgaria it's not recommend to give someone to repair the phone, because I'll give it with one and take it with 10 other problems. There aren't any good repair centres for mobile phones here.

I really hope the problem to be in the battery.

Проблема не е в батерията, нито в телефона или антената!
Проблема е в клетката на оператора.
Понеже вкъщи съм на "границата" на 2 клетки, когато е свързан с едната (по-далечната) батерията си кара нормално, когато телефона е в друго местоположение (свързан към другата клетка) батерията заминава доста бързо.
Случвало ми се e на 3G батерията да свърши от 100% > 0% и да ми изключи телефона - връщам на Само GSM и какво да видя -> отново 100% батерия (а преди това се изключи пред очите ми).
Откакто взеха да пускат HSDPA ми се появи този проблем с батерията и то с определени клетки.
Съжалявам за превода на английски, но не съм учил.

Translate with google(and me) :

The problem isn't battery, not with phone, not with antenna!
The problem is providers cell.
In home i'm limited on 2 cells, when phone is connected to distant cell - battery work normal,when is connected to others cells - goes pretty quick.
Happened with phone on 3G battery end from 100% > 0% and phone switch off.
Then turn on phone and go in settings to set Only GSM - battery again is 100% full
Since HSDPA exist - begin my problems with some cells (K800 haven't HSDPA).
Sorry about the translation in english.

I think the problem is in me, because the other people around me don't have that problem. In addition, I use "Only GSM" all the time. And I have that problem everywhere.

I might get my new battery today and report you the results tomorrow.

Today I didn't take my phone with me but I continue to hear the interference sound in the office - maybe from the other phones around. So this theory is wrong - my phone doen't try to connect more often.

The result - the problem is not in the battery - it continues to fall down with great speed. The problem is not in the antenna too, because the battery falls with less, but still high speed in Flight mode. I'll make a master reset, but I don't believe this to help. So where can be the problem???

EDIT: And the phone started to restart very often - it gives error "Inactive SIM" and shuts down.

EDIT2: Master Reset doesn't help. I am in despair... I love this phone so much!

I have R1FA035 since February.

Which part if the hardware can cause such a big electric consumption?

You have a problem with GDFS Trim Area and must to repair it. The battery calibration is in this area and You must to use SETool 2 or Dream Box to fix it.

Thank you for the information, but if it's as expensive as you said n the PM, it's better to buy a new phone instead.

Do you know where can I find a good repair centre in Bulgaria?
