I guess it is the wapping, not the activated GPRS, that costs battery lifetime then...
...it is of course a lot:
- checking stocks every 5 minutes when trading is a lot of WAP access... |

My T68 has been on 0 hours standby for about 9 hours now, and I've been using it!!!
The predicted standby time is a bit misleading!
But saying that, can't really fault the battery life, much better than any other phone i've ever had. And the battery display goes down in sync with how long the battery has left, not like the Sony Z5 which stayed at almost full then dropped in the space of a few hours to none!!!
Cheers! |

I experienced exactly the same!! 10 hours with a standby timo of 0h!! And I remarked, that after emptying the battery totally and reload I have every time more standby...I'm at 347h now.. 
But I know, this doesn't really mean anything..

Do you empty your battery totally by leaving you phone on until it dies ??? Or is there a better way? |

...right...just til it dies! I made this 3 times so far in 1.5 Week. And when I charge the battery, I carge til it is full, the I unplug, plug the cable in again and let the battery charge for another few minutes. I repeat this up to 5 times...Did it with any mobile i had so far in the beginning...

You are way out dude!!! Whaddya wanna do... torture your phone? I read somewhere that it isn't good for a battery to be charged once it is almost full. This applies in part, to lithium batteries too.... |
