Unfortunately Nokia saw fit to release Modest on the masses before it was ready. All you can do is wipe modest out and make sure it's not auto-updating. I'm sure it will be fixed this year, but since it's been unstable since February I would not hold my breath.

Mine eats battery too, but i still use it, mainly 'cause i disconnect my device whenever i'm not using it. Modest dies with 100% usage only when it checks the mail sometimes.

I'm using modest (diablo) with one imap GMail account configured. I'm experiencing crashes in the background process, and what is worse, sometimes it stays at 99% CPU usage draining battery power.
I can't leave my N810 in stand-by without risking it off with a flat battery. To make matters worse, full discharge of Lithium batteries shortens it's charge capacity.
Below is the output of the 'top' command showing 'maemo-launcher' process (PID 7802) with 98.9% CPU usage, and 'ps' command relating PID 7802 to modest executable:
Code:$ top Mem: 112060K used, 14736K free, 0K shrd, 60K buff, 38544K cached Load average: 1.07 1.05 1.05 PID USER STATUS VSZ PPID %CPU %MEM COMMAND 7802 user SW 70408 7075 98.9 55.4 maemo-launcher 7935 user RWN 1960 7917 0.7 1.5 top 358 root SW 776 350 0.1 0.6 bme_RX-44 7328 user SW 67292 7326 0.0 52.9 browserdI've seen other people complaining about maemo-launcher processes with 99% cpu usage, modest background crashes and shorten battery live in Diablo. In my case I'm think they are related. If someone knows of some debug procedure I can do about to help, I'm interested.Code:$ ps | grep 7802 7802 user 70408 SW /usr/bin/modest
P.S. I did a reflash to Diablo firmware without restoring any backup and configured modest only once. Didn't install any software outside official Diablo and Diablo extras.

Could someone explain how to uninstall Modest? I tried uninstalling in Red Pill mode but there are dependencies involved, so I am not sure what to do.
Thanks.

Now that the update version 4.2008.30-2 has been released, does anybody still run into this issue?
According to https://bugs.maemo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=3357 it's fixed for one person, and not fixed for another.
Please avoid adding "I see this problem too"-only comments to the bug report, instead please see https://bugs.maemo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=3357#c7 on how to provide more information if you want to help tracking this down!
Thanks in advance everybody!
