You have a problem with your reception. The graph is showing a lot of time with weak or no signal, which can really drain the battery.

well ok that was when i was at the movies, but still, the rate of battery drain does not change after i get normal signal strenght, so that can't be it... shouldnt there be parts with almost no batterydrain (like 1%/hour) while in deepsleep, which wold be reflected as almost horizontal lines?

You have a problem that is bad battery life, but i dont know the solution. During sleep it should be flat line.

If your phone isn't going in to deep sleep, then no there won't be level parts of the graph.. your phone is not going into deep sleep. There is probably an app that is killing your battery.

try to leave unchecked google localization service (gps or wifi)... every now and then it starts to check and that could be the reason (amoong others program/service you have installed); hopelly, try also to undervolt/underclock with custon kernel and do not use full brightness (it's 1st cause of battery drain, obviously not during sleep) while phone using...

It's my personal experience that you should try one thing at a time and start with the obvious stuff.

Your phone standby is higher than your Android OS so start with there. As others have pointed out, that huge chunk of no reception contributes a lot to your drain. Since you said you were at a movie during that time, evaluate your battery life for one more day when you don't have a huge chunk of a reception gap.

I can't see (but I'm no expert) anything hugely glaring on your BB Stats that screams drain. Your screen-off awake on your battery graph looks rather normal sans the reception gap. Still doesn't explain why you had 6 hours of awake time but I'm almost betting that it's something common.

Also try opening camera, hit back to close out of it.

Also try opening camera, hit back to close out of it.

That could be also the problem (and probably affect more tha the other things listed), forget to mention. If you know, this is a ics related bug or a gtalk bug?

I have a similar problem although it is my rild.
I downloaded System panel and it says 8.9% constantly and it is the only source of my battery drain, not causing it to go into a deep sleep.

How do I fix this issue?

im using a custom kernel (Franco) if you dont have one out i suggest one for battery saving
