Battery Life Keeps Dying
Hi all, I am running WM5, Dell Axim X50V..I have noticed that after I charge my battery to 100 percent, when I take it off the cradle, and its turned off for the rest of the night, the next morning when I turn it on its almost down to 11 percent remaining, and even today, a few hours ago I charged it completely, took it off the cradle, and when I put it back on the cradle now it was down to 70 percent charged, I have done the activesync fake thing and I cant figure out what is causing it to happen, perhaps I have not done the activesync thing right, what other recommondations can be done to keep my battery charged..Thanks

Not running any programs except for magic button, it just dies out, not sure if the activesync fake trick is working for me..sometimes the battery will hold and sometimes it wont..battery is about 3 years old

most batteries are warranted for a year and with typical and reasonable use you can get about 2 good years from one... 3 years and well, you are lucky it will even take a charge.

Try instaling something like acbtaskman... and set it to log battery usage. maybe you can see where/when the power is being used.
