Battery draining when the phone is OFF?

[marcelo0292]

Maybe this has been talked about before but im going to ask this anyway.

A couple of nights ago my battery was at about 30% (yellow) so i decided to turn my phone off and go to sleep, well when i woke up my i turned my hero back on, and the battery was at 9%

So last night the battery was low again and i decided to take the battery out and when i woke up i put it back on and my hero had the same battery life as last night

Can anyone explain if this is normal??

Thanks

Just a guess...

I would think that since its really a very small computer with a phone on it, that some battery use would happen even when off.

Same thing happens to all 4 laptops that we have. If you turn them off and leave them unplugged, the battery will drain.

yeah, makes sense.

Idk, i just noticed that and i wanted to know why that happened.

Thanks tho

On my Hero, booting takes quite a bit of battery. I've noticed it use up between 6 and 10 %.
