It's odd, my battery life started off as AWFUL, I'd unplug it at home on 100% and by the time I'd got to work it would be down at 80% would barely get to lunchtime before it's coming down to 25% and certainly wouldn't last the whole day.
It's been a couple of weeks and it seems to have improved, it will now almost last a day, gets to around 8pm and it's at 10%.
I don't know whether this is because I'm not using LTE as much (have it on wifi at home and in the office) so maybe it was that which was draining the battery so much.
Still needs sorting out though.

I'm trying to understand this ... if you disable LTE does this mean you fall back to 3G speeds? If so, what happens when Telstra eventually switch off 3G?

They won't switch off 3G for many years yet, LTE is only available in the big CBD's and very few people have phones which can use it anyway. Hopefully the LTE battery drain bug (if it is one) will be fixed in the near future.

Still, one day I'll be able to buy another USB cable for the car charger!
