Your current draw problems are not related to faulty battery, thats for sure. Anyway, better battery always mean longer runtime, so if you want to buy new one, I recommend polarcell BL-5J. they're...

Re: N900 battery drain
By 3G on you mean 3G data connection active all the time? If yes, your battery life is pretty normal, 3G data is power sucker, even if you don't transmit much. If you need to be online, but doesn't...

Re: N900 battery drain

Well done!
Those 10 hours are of constant use or idle? My phone can last for up to 2 days if I don't touch it, but that rarely happens. Normally I take it off the charger about 6:30 in the morning...

Alternatively, if you are sure that BT is permanently broken, you can just as well uninstall everything remotely related to it and then reboot the device. I cannot give you a list but I would start...

Re: N900 battery drain
Powertop does not reveal anything. It could/should (clean reflashed state) be a bit more time in C4 state, but mine is about the same.
