Battery drain

pantek says:
I installed the RTM-App on my Milestone two days ago and since then my battery drains within 8-10 hours. I tried to reduce the sync frequency to 4 hours and finally turned automatic sync off, but that doesn't change much.

While my phone used to run 2-3 days with a battery load, I have to reload it sometime in the afternoon now. Is there any trick to prevent that?

Thanks!

I have found also that RTM prevents my Nexus to go idle

I find that having the GPS enabled with a very short re-check interval (ie, 2 minutes), seriously drains the battery, but as far as I'm concerned, that's somewhat expected.

If you have the GPS feature enabled, turning down the refresh interval or turning it off entirely (under Settings->Locations) may help. Even a 15-minute interval seems to be much better -- when I had it set at two minutes, the battery usage chart on my Nexus One showed it as using up almost as much juice as the display itself.
