The android OS appears to be keeping the phone awake and this results in a huge battery discharge! My battery was dead after 5 hours of standby and when I looked in the battery Use, "Android OS" was 77% with the timer for "Keep Alive" at 12h 34m (it was on the charger overnight and marked itself as hitting 100% CPU around this time).

What version are you on? Im on 1.4 and it has great battery life. I am using stock kernel. Did you install any apps recently that could have caused this? What kernel are you on?

Any other suggestions please? Should I have GOOGLE WALLET installed?

No, you do not need to have google wallet installed, i do not have it and i was able to buy a couple of apps today.

Try to install again gapps 4.0.4 (the ones in the ROM utility from 18-02-2012) and check...good luck.

Everything is 1.4 stock. I put it on charge and it jumped up to 65% after 5 minutes. I wonder if there is something wrong with the battery calculations for some reason.

Edit: Also, it takes about 5-10 mins to realise when it's charging/not charging

The same happens to me sometimes when I disconnect the power cord, android os goes to the roof around 80% in a few hours of standby, but if I reboot the phone prior to unplug it, it will be fine and battery will last long.

I had a similar issue last week, once I restarted the phone, Android OS started behaving itself.

I don't know if this was mentioned before, but here's the thing, after installing 1.4.0 I noticed that the stock keyboard wouldn't give me word suggestions in portuguese as in the previous version, then I checked that gapps replace the keyboard in the rom with another version which is smaller in size, I've replaced back manually the keyboard app with the included in the rom, now it works just fine maybe this is important for some people which their language is not included in the dictionary pack.

Deleting the keyboard app within the gapps zip won't work, this will delete the keyboard app in the rom and then won't install nothing because it's not there.

Amigo, I am being nice here, and with a friendly hand extended .... but before the entire swarm descends on you >>> do some serious reading on how to install these ROMs. With a few hundred thousand satisfied Codename Android users getting good outcomes, please reconsider your words and ... well the rest is up to you.
