Hi all ,
This actualy is my second post.First time battery was draining fast ,but i assume phone was new and battery wasn't calibrated well.One week all was good and battery was great (2 days with light use,some gaming and web).Now after i recharge battery from 25% to 100% a strange thing is happend.Battery goes from 100% to 70% in few minutes with no use ,and battery discharge rate tell me is going 82% per hour.(no wifi ,no 3g ,no gps ,no data and more).WP8 and phone is great but i can't anymore ,im mad now how piece of garbage can be.
Sorry for poor battery.

Hi, there are many threads on this issue. That battery drain seems rather drastic.

Here's a thread that may help if you go through it: http://forums.windowscentral.com/windows-phone-8/238706-do-you-have-random-battery-drain.html

A lot of the time battery drain is due to background tasks and leaving certain services running.

Make sure you turn off - Location, WiFi, Tap-Send (might not be on 520), Bluetooth - when not in use
Go to Settings - Swipe right - Background tasks - tap any app that has a background task and select - select block to turn it off. Apps run fine without background tasks but if you want toast
notifications you must leave this on.

Sometimes batteries need a bit more time to sort themselves out but if the issue keeps up you may need a replacement.

I have all background apps closed,and all off.Is like a brick nothing on but still drain like crazy

Try a hard reset if that doesn't work get it replaced. That's the only real solution. There are many 'tricks' that people suggest but if it's draining that fast then something is wrong.

Ok ,after a battery reinsert and some restart seems fixed for now ,but i wonder how long....Im sure will happend soon again,maybe is an OS bug or something.
