Don't talk to me about new phone hype...

Damn I'm late this morning, set the alarm on this thing and the phone froze during the night, just had to take the battery out and reboot....also it's used 60% of the battery during the night :S

60% in 7 hours....how can I find out what's using the battery

Does this seem excessive to you all? First night I lost 9% battery, thought I lost a lot Friday night so did a test and charged to 100% and then unplugged it and didn't use the phone until morning.

Read my post above yours 6 Hours 22 on battery during the night, and battery now down to 40%

That wasn't there when I posted.

Go into settings, battery and take a screenshot with the power and home button.

not sure whats draining it then.

you need an app like betterbatterystats to see exactly what's waking up the phone - its not letting it deep sleep, CPU Spy is good too - that's free but just shows CPU stepping info.
