So I upgraded to a LG Rumor in lime green yesterday and had fun texting all night long. Before I went to bed, I plugged it in to charge, and it was all green lights when I got up this morning. By the time I got home from work, about 10-11 hours later, it was down to 1 of 3 on the battery. I hadn't talked on it all day and had only texted a few times and messed around with the ring tones for about 5 minutes. I made a 10 minute phone call at home, then the phone tells me it needs to be charged due to low battery. Any ideas? Is it busted or could it be a battery hogging setting on the phone?
As a side note and question, I also got a Plantronics Explorer 350 BT bluetooth headset, which worked fine, then I charged it and turned it off, but my phone still showed it as paired. I got a call (the 10 minute one this evening) and tried to use the bluetooth, but it wasn't working. It had power, phone said it was paired, and I even tried on the menu on phone call to use bluetooth, and none worked. After I got off the phone, I tried to fix the bluetooth. It didn't work, I'd turn if off then on, still not working. I tried to disconnect then reconnect it, which also didn't work (took forever to disconnect, then continued to fail to connect). So I deleted it from the phone and reinstalled it, and it still failed to connect. So I turned the phone off and then back on. Then it magically popped up saying the bluetooth was requesting to pair. Now it works fine, but considering I got this phone and blue tooth yesterday, I want to make sure it is working appropriately. This happened with my old phone and crappy old bluetooth as well, even with following the book exactly, so I don't know.
Please help me!

Call customer service or bring it into a store. Perhaps the phone needs a software update or you may need a replacement device.

Yeah,I already talked to them, if the problem continues I'll take it to them. I was just wondering if there were any apps on the phone that were battery hogs. I had a phone a long time ago where you had to go in and change options so it wouldn't waste battery looking for a signal if you were in a bad area, etc.
