Having upgraded an XDA Mini S with the new Imate rom I (like a lot of others) have noticed a significant change in the life of the battery.
For example last night the battery was reading 78%, and left on standby for 12 hours it still showed 78%.
However with wifi and blutooth disabled, I used the phone to make a 1 minute call, and the battery dropped by 4% to 74%. I made another call 15 minutes later and it dropped from 74% to 69%.
That is a lot of consumption for a 1 minute phone call.
Is anyone else experiencing this?
What other factors may be contributing to the consumption when the phone is used for calls?
Any input would be appreciated.
