I have been thrilled thus far with this phone and an advocate for the battery life, as it's generally performed beyond my expectations.
However, I am having issues with a lot of drain in the evening. I can generally get a couple of days out of the battery, sometimes a little more. But, I've had a couple of nights recently where it will lose close to 20% of it's battery overnight. A couple nights ago, I had charged it, turned everything off through running apps and task manager. It had 100% of it's battery when I set it down that eve, but in the morning, I checked it and it was at 82%. Similar last night, though I think it lost even more battery.
Strange, yet frustrating. Any thoughts on this and what might be causing it? I check to be sure everything is off, including web connection and Wifi.
The other issue I had last night was with the 'talk' app. A relative called through Google Video Chat. And while I was able to see him, and me, he said he had no camera feed on his Mac. (Mac to phone connection) It was my first time using this app, but he saw I was up in Google and called just to try it. We've chatted through Google Vid Chat before on our computers with no problem, but this didn't work visually, though voice was fine. I did note a small lock on the image of me (picture in picture sort of thing, if you're not familiar), but couldn't figure out how to enable the camera feed on his end, and tapping the lock did nothing, couldn't find any settings options, etc.
I'd appreciate any help with these issues, if possible. Thank you in advance!
