Unplugged it at 96%, turned off wifi and sleepcover detection, and didn't even read on it, just put it back to sleep. When I turned it back on some 15 minutes later, the battery had dropped to 64%, and while I was staring at it, it continued to drain and is now at 60% as I type.
This does NOT seem normal to me. Even if the battery was dead, I would have to be USING the device for it to drain. Its just sleeping and seems to be collapsing. Either the battery is THAT bad right now, OR something else is going on.
I am comfortable enough to open it, BUT would rather not if I could avoid it. Do you think doing some sort of manual firmware flash, or going back to an old firmware might help? Draining while sleeping feels like a "wake-lock" issue or something similar?
