I've witnessed this on both the Wing and the Wizard while running WiMO 6.x with various ROMs from various cookers, including "factory fresh".
Why does the battery drain faster when in "flight mode" (all radios off) than when in "normal mode" (Bluetooth and GSM radios on in my case).
For instance, when taking a short flight las weekend, I placed the unit in flight mode, turned it off and put it in my pocket, noting 96% battery charge at the time (as shown by Battery Status). No usage at all during the flight on my part until we landed.
Upon landing, I fired the Wing up, and notice that the battery was at 83% !! No usgae at all and the battery drops13%?! I only drop about 3% an hour during typical standbye. I use Exchange ActiveSync push and Windows Live push options, bluetooth typically turned on and noderate e-mail, SMS and web use (no media player stuff or A2DP).
Am I missing something? What should be turned off to make this drain go away?
