This is what I got today on my 3G for Battery life...everything was off and it was a plain old edge phone all day with no gps or wifi on....

As soon as I took this pic, I got the 20% warning....What do you think?

my battery is about half way and i got usage of 4 hours+ and standby of 1 day and 2 hours. i text alot and make a couple calls. i have all the features off. im on edge also.
 
something is majorly wrong then with my phone...its either software issue or just a bad battery!
 
What is the point if you turn off all of the features of the new phone? Everyone with a first gen could have told you that.

i'm trying to test my phone out in all configs...plus we don't have 3G in our area yet..they said it is suppose to be activated later this summer...and i also do a lot of traveling to cities that do have 3G
 
It had better improve. I got the 20% warning message after just 3 1/2 hours of use and about 13 hours of standby today... trying turning location services off to see if that improves the situation.
