Hey guys I have been lurking here since I got my Moment this spring and luckily I don't have many of the common issues. I have the 2.1 OS sprint version and my battery lasts between 18-36 hours based on usage.
Last weekend I went out to the country and while roaming the battery life was cut in half. The data roaming option was checked but I didn't use the phone a lot. I have also noticed that while at work I only get between 0-2 bars and the battery drops a lot faster than at home.
I use K9 mail (checks every 30 minutes) and Handcent messaging. The wifi, bluetooth, and gps are usually off. Background data is checked but Auto sync is unchecked. I also generally use ATK after facebook or other apps for the kill feature but I also kill atk at the same time.
Is this phone just a dog when it gets a bad signal? What else should I turn on or off short of rooting the phone? Can I create a custom profile that activates when the signal drops beyond a certain amount?
