i would suspect you have the same problem as most 3G phones on the market, that when set to automatically sitch between 2g/3g in a signal with low 3g coverage you are finding the batteruy drain sooner than expected, this is due to the large power required to do this. set it to 2G only (which despite you earlier comment you can do and if you read the google post youd see how to do it) and youll probably find the battery life increase significantly.
is that a better response?
ps 2G will be the GPRS/EDGE setting (3g is UMTS/HSDPA/HSUDPA)
I am with melita mobile ( a company ) and they only transmit 3G, you can turn it off, but then u get no reception. get it??
I now tried a different sim card (different company) that can enable me to turn off the 3g, which I did.

At the end of the day i dont think you will ever get a decent amount of battery with that phone, its getting pretty old now. I know the battery is new but the phone is still old.
Just try and following those tips to try and squeeze out any extra power you can
I know mate but it wasnt this bad. Cant sell it as I will get fuck all for it
