I'm pissed and feel ripped off

Your battery life is no better or worse than everybody else and that battery life sucks. My battery life is pretty good but that's because I'm using the official extended battery.

Well my phone has been off the charger for 16 hours and is at 53% left. I have 4G and bluetooth on ALL the time. I'd call that pretty darn good battery life, and I have the stock battery.

Seriuosly funny sh**t.

I wish I had that app. Please post link!

First, you have to beat Plants Vs. Zombies, then you have to go to Amazon app market at exactly 10:23 am PST and watch for a little android to run across the screen. Then you press CTL - ALT - 3# then ENTER. Put your phone in the microwave on high for 20 minutes and 3 seconds. Once that is done, drink 2 Crown and Cokes and stare at your phone for 3 minutes without blinking. Text "gimme money" to 2342352098081231508634560 and it should appear on you main home screen as long as you have less than 4 icons on there. Oh and make sure you are only wearing one sock.

Do I have to do that all in order? I've already beat pvz past 2 crown and cokes and can easily wear 1 sock. I might need to start on absinthe to get an android to run across my screen

Wish I could feel bad. Well I do a little for trading my first TB in for replacement after taking the OTA update, then not rooting. Did that on the second one, then went back to stock factory and had a perfect phone. Along comes MR2 update and things work even better as if it could get any better. Battery life is on par with smart phones so no complaint there. I use the stock battery and keep the extended charged up and ready to go if I am in the field. Might cycle them just to make sure it still works.... Ya... I am happy to show off my Thunderbolt. First HTC phone and second Android phone, I am impressed.

Someone left out the part where you stand on your head and spit in a circle 3 times. on the instructions.

We can all get awesome life if we don't use it. Try surfing the web, playing movies, making calls and streaming music and tell us how long it lasts. Here's a hint...not long.

I've had my Thunderbolt for 2 months now and I am not having ANY of the problems that everyone else seems to be having. My battery life is awesome, my phone works like it should, it is not having the reboot issue, heck, even my screen is not scratched. The speed is phenomenal, sound is perfect, and it takes amazing pictures. What the heck is up with this???? Why did I get stuck with a GOOD phone???? I want to be cool and have issues like everyone else. *sigh*

Ever since I installed BAMF 1.7 Remix I have become 100% frustrated with this phone! I mean common! The phone has only restarted on me once in 3 weeks, and it was probably because I pulled the battery on purpose just so I could see the boot animation! The battery life has been just WAAAAAY to good, and my gosh, why does it have to be so fast and useful!?! I want to go back to an old school nokia phone or something, too many things right with this phone.
