    Bad battery or normal?

    New Droid X user so I'm not sure if my battery life is normal. From a 100% charge to 20% around 19hrs last time plugged in. I probably send about 15 text, 30-45mins talk, 15mins of web browsing, 15mins of navigation, and check my email probably 8 times within that 19 hours, my battery drop to 20% (brightness is set on auto). Not sure if this is normal because I've seen user get 6-8 hours with heavy usage. Normal or bad battery?

    It could be OK depending on what apps you have running. Some run in the background and can use a lot of battery. The first thing you should check is to go to Settings -> battery Manager and touch the battery icon. It should give you a breakdown of what's using battery power if it doesn't crash. (The crash is a known bug. If it happens, try again later. Rebooting may not help that.) I get longer battery time but I don't talk or text as much.

    Battery life is pretty much horrible. I went from 100 to 50 percent in two hours with just some light web browsing.
