Quick search, I see here other people having the same problem and quick battery depletion. e.g.:http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php?t=61006

Other thing to try is also to remove programs one by one and see when/if this solves it.

good luck.

I think it is pretty normal for it to be around 10 mb..

Yes, you're right. Checked it again and mine's also 10ish.

Kill a tracker - from your screens it seems it runs. It is a first suspect because it can easily eat the battery in 3-4h:

tracker-processes -t

AlMehdi - Removing simple-fmtx-widget did not help...

egoshin - Tried that now, will report later on the outcome. Thanks for the tip

Nope, it didn't help

Any other propositions guys? I'm willing to try everything before I reflash the device...

I reflashed my phone the other day (camera stopped working after kernal update on Friday - then the whole system went down). since the reflash my battery lasts for less than 6 hours in standby.

What is going on????

I think a lot of things happened since you last reflash. You may show us the output of the following command for our further investigation:

Code:

maemo-list-user-packages

Maybe it´s time to list your programs:
