Great script pyllyukko! Thanks for that.

Whoever has the initial drain issue, I suspect that the charging process does not understand that the battery is fully charged. Try this when your battery is fully charged:
  1. unplug the phone.
  2. shutdown the phone
  3. remove the battery
  4. (optional) push the power button 10 secs (without the battery, this might not even do anything, i might be imagining things )
  5. put the battery back in
  6. plug the phone immediately after boot finishes
Now whenever I did this, the phone continued to charge for another 20-30 mins.

I also recorded the percentage and the charge (mA) from the hal-device before and after the shutdown.

The fully charged battery before the shutdown was around 97% and ~1200 mA
After the reboot it goes to 87-90% battery state. (i don't remember the amps)

Either I'm missing something (maybe boot drains a lot of battery, or some enormous discharge happening somewhere in between) or the measurement of the battery charge is somewhat skewed in the OS.
