    drawing to much power

    i bought a razr and the battery died.i charged the battery with the phone off and let it charge until it read charge complete. unplugged charger.in the morning the razr would not power up..i removed the battery from me pebl and put it in the razr and the phone powered up perfect....however the pebl battery died 5 hours later that was in the razr.i charged the razr battery that came with the phone for about 5 hours and the battery died again in about 5 hours..so i swapped again to verify if it was a phone issue or a battery issue.and once again it drained the pebl battery....is there anyway the the razr is drawing to much power from the battery and is there anyway to correct this...thanks

    Make sure bluetooth is off when not in use... slow your connection speed to medium, and shorten the backlight time. that should help.

    my phone did this when i came to Brazil, basically, somehow some settings changed... i did a factory reset and the battery went back to normal usage... i would charge fully, and would only last 4-5 hours... factory reset and phone would work 3-4 days lol... goes to show changing even one little insignificant setting can have disasterous effects
    The fate of this planet will soon depend on one man....
