I am experiencing really poor battery life and it all started after doing the OTA 2.3 update. Just to give an idea of my usage on a regular day: I used to take and upload pictures to photobucket, listening to pandora over bluetooth headphones, receiving/sending work and personal emails, light browser use, texting, GPS, all in one day and battery would last a whole day. After the update, battery only lasts about two to three hours with same usage!
One thing I noticed (don't know if it's relevant) the day after the update I had my phone in my shirt pocket and started feeling it getting extremely hot, and I wasn't even uploading/downloading anything. That seemed odd, but since it didn't happen again, I didn't think much of it.
I have checked the battery mode and selected various modes, but none seem to work. Downloaded Juicedefender (free version) and that seemed to work, but it started putting my phone on airplane mode or it would just not run sometimes so I got sick of it and uninstalled it.
Has anyone experienced the same issue with their battery life after the update? I read a similar post on here saying they got better life after the update, but how could that be? Should I take the phone to Verizon to have them take a look at it? Will they even do anything about it?
