Hello and welcome to the forum

Maybe you have a rogue app or maybe the phone needs to be returned for a replacement. The battery should last at least a day with heavy use.

Have you updated the firmware?

You can check what's been using your battery in settings. Charge it up, unplug it, leave it until the battery is suitably discharged then have a look. If it's one of the Android processes then a factory reset may cure the problem, but you will need to reinstall your apps etc.

I had a rogue app, my battery drained exactly the same. Uninstalled the app and it's fine now.

What is a rogue app?? how do i know??? and i have upgraded the firmware to version 2.3.6,, when 1st i had bought the mobile it was overheating now its not after the upgradation. but now battery sucks...what to do???

A rogue app is one that is adversely affecting your phone for some reason, it may be incompatible with another app or your version of firmware, it may have installed incorrectly, it may have a bug in it that the developer hasn't handled properly, there are many and various reasons but it doesn't mean the app is malicious, just that it's causing unforeseen problems on your phone.

Did you run a factory reset on your phone after upgrading the firmware? You may have elements of the old firmware and new firmware causing your problem.

To check what is using your battery, charge it, unplug it, after the battery has drained look at settings > about phone > battery usage.

i have done factory reset 2-3 times..i have now very few apps on my s2, the problem is that there are some apps which are running, if i close them...after some time it again appears to be running..how to close those apps permamantly..apps like zynga poker, raiden-sky force ace...i closed them but still it doesnt actually close..after sometime it will again start.

[Erlander]

Looks like you need to uninstall those apps and then do a factory reset!

[ronak123]

i have already done that 2-3 times

Just leave only system apps running for a day and see and see what happens then. Doesn't take long to put them back.

Do you have GPS turned on all the time? If so, this will drain your battery quickly. Turn wireless off when you are out and about and only turn on when it's needed.
