    Another thing that annoys me is when I have to continuously stop programs over and over, like Facebook, crackle, yahoo mail, etc. Very annoying.

    You don't have to do that. After 2.1 Android handles all of that. If you stop them they will only restart, which actually uses more battery than letting them run. This is why task managers aren't to be used on OS 2.2 and later.

    The Razr has one of the biggest batteries in a 4g phone. All who are getting bad battery performance just turn down the brightness to 15% or lower all the time. Believe me its more than enough for any indoor situation. Also, use smart actions battery saver. I get full day of normal use. I used to keep my phone lit up and suck juice like crazy, but then i checked my wife's iPhone and saw how low Apple keeps the screen indoors. I believe most cell manufacturers treat their screens like TV manufacturers. they want to show off the screens brilliance, even if it is not very practical for everyday use. As a result, we all feel the battery life sucks. I assure you I have tried this and my phone went from lasting about 3-4 hours to 12 to 14.

    One more tip. Use Dark Wallpaper. checkout http://lifehacker.com/5746181/save-y...ers-and-themes

    my battery dies pretty quick when I have the phone in my pocket with the screen locked...of course the phone heats up pretty good too and makes a nice hand warmer.

    This is so true. My phone's battery takes a plunge while in my pocket too.

    I turned off pocket detection and have not had that problem since.

    The weird thing, it doesn't happen all the time. I put it my pants pocket...business as usual. Put the phone in my zip up sweater pocket, instant heater. however, its not always this case.

    My battery was at 80% when I started Motocast syncing and Then started streaming a movie over wifi. After 1 hour 45 minutes my battery is down to 40%.

    Seems pretty good to me.
