Out of a sudden my battery will only last for a day with minimal call and other usage.
It can last at least two days before.
The phone is only 3 months old.
Is there a warranty on battery?

my battery is back to normal drain.
this is what i did :
-let the battery drain till the unit off by it self.
-i took out my SD card.
-charge the phone
-use the phone for 1 day without SD card. <- battery usage is normal at this stage
-try putting back the SD card <- battery usage is still normal
i'm not sure whether the SD card is draining power or not.
anyway, now it's working fine.

I can't understand how theese things can depend?

The drain and charge to full should be able to help.
The way I use to extend battery life is to get into the habit of pressing power off button everytime after use before you put it back into your pocket. Of course this also comes with the habit of turning it on everytime you take it, but you do that anyways so it's just half a bit more of a habit. This way your battery should last more than 2 days if you don't drain it a lot.
