Switch_! get on in here! You need to install powertop from developers repo.

You say the phone was from amazon. Was it BRAND SPANKING NEW or just new to you?

Which kernel are you running?

Such a low run time generally implies the CPU is not reaching C4 to sleep.

1. remove all widgets form desktop.
2. put phone into offline mode.
3. switch off and pull battery for 10s.
4. switch on and maintain offline mode.
5. let settle for ~4 minutes
6. run powertop and post output.
