battery problem

[shantanubaji]

my XU had gingerbread on it
even then it consumes a lot of battery
i have to charge it almost thrice to four times a day
even in the night, on standby, it consumes 25 to 30 of the battery which i check the next day mornin
can anyone suggest me some solution for it
maybe some app or anythin which will help
and if i upgrade to ICS then will it solve the problem by Sony's Extended Standby Mode ???

depends on local laws. In India I think if you give your mobile to a repair centre, there are chances it will get more dmged.

Hey i switched on only gsm mode but still my xu consums 30% battery at night when data is off n all processes too...

by switchin to gsm mode in ur xu d problem is solvd?

Ady, try this :
- charge your phone to the fullest
- make sure you leave it in a place where your signal strength is maximum not alternating, over night (check and double check)
- check in the morning how much battery drained over night
- do it all over again with different features enabled (data traffic, GSM, etc)

Trust me when i say that signal strength makes a ton of difference when it comes to battery life. Mine ranges from almost 7 days to 1 day (if the signal has problems)

i had also a battery drain problem, had to charge everyday without almost not any wifi usage or other heavy usage. Checked the battery status and 78% was the screen which i didnt understand. Anyway how i solved is by only resetting the phone settings and now after charging yesterday its still on 90% with daily usage

Reset settings

not factory settings
