got a replacement the next day. 3-8-12. got the certified repl. set up. updated, apps etc.. went out at 90% battery .was gone 3.5 hrs. checked for mess. one time. fone worked. took a nap for 3 hrs. got up and was gona check the tv guide app.to watch some tube. just like the other fone it didnt come on. after a few mins. it came on with the batt. at 15%
needless to say i am not very pleased.i turned everything off. all apps bg stuff running. i like this fone and im in a two yr contract. somethings gotta get better. or i will be doing this all the time. getting another fone. not happy about not getting a new one from verizon. anyone have an idea what may be going on with these fones. tia for any help. jay

Welcome to Droid Forums. Sorry to say but many of these 4g devices have pretty lack luster battery life. I would suggest heading over to our Razr section and looking around for some possible battery saving tips.

Definitely check out the Razr section but it sounds like something is constantly running in the background to drain the battery...or it could be an issue with the phone - the Razr does have a shorter battery life than the Maxx but you should get more than 4 hours with minimal use...
