Portico makes no difference.
Yeah I figured just as much, but I guess we all secretly hope that the 'next big update' will magically solve all our issues.. :grin:

Try turning off NFC (Tap & Send) in settings. My battery was barely making 8 hours from new. After turning off NFC I'm now getting 24-30 hours out of a charge! the other thing to do is completely drain the battery @ least 3 times but its best to do this every time as it will increase your batteries performance & life.
Why don't you guys just check and close apps before you go to bed? Hold back and cycle through each app and hit back to close it. WIth any open app if you press the home button the app runs in the background but if you press back it closes the app. Just keep that in mind and watch your background apps.
The battery drain is obviously an issue which I'm sure will be solved eventually. Problems with battery drain happens with almost every new phone launch. Just a matter of time until its fixed. Until then just be careful.
I have NFC, tap to send, and bluetooth on and have still had this happen a couple of times. Appears to be a random bug.
Bug after bug after bug, why even bother. I'm thinking I'll get an iPhone.
I agree, Windows Phone fanboys are the worst. Even the editors here.

Everyone who complains about being 'dumb not charging their phone overnight' can go F-themselves. That doesn't contribute anything to the problem. One should except litte bit more than 14hours from a cellphone.
I would say that issue has nothing to do with having a 'bad battery', and everything to do with the buggy 'Alarm' app. My battery life is brilliant and can go 1+ day easily with heavy use(what ever that means) 3- days with light use. Never used 'battery saver'. I have plenty of apps installed(mostly reputable) everything allowed to run in the backround. Skype also running always in the backround. Never had experienced any major battery draining, expect with games and Metrotube(haven't used since).
..but, the 'Alarm' app. It seems to drain the battery randomly. I've used it few times succesfully, and 2 times it did drain the battery dead and I woke up late. They are the only times I've found my phone dead in the morning. And yes, I did have plenty of battery left before going to sleep(40-50%+). Otherwise I would have put it in charger. I've seen another topic about this('Alarm app'), the same exact issue on some forum too.
That's the first. However, you don't mean the native alarm right?
Because I've lived on that alarm for 2 years without a single issue
Ok, it's spelled 'Alarms'.. had to check. But yes, I mean the native 'Alarms' app found on my Lumia 920.
Not sure what native alarm app you might refering to. You've used it for 2 years? Maybe the 'alarm' from WP 7.0 and wp 7.5?
