Not much that I know of you can do about that if an OS update doesn't fix it If it isn't a battery issue, and no basic settings have changed such as backlight etc. and an OS update doesn't work, probably all you can do is warranty the phone.
Thanks. I also have OS5.0.0.328 and have since the day it came out. This just started happenning in the past two or three weeks. I deleted some apps I really didn't need and have changed the backlight to be minimal, but still goes from 60 to 0 in a reboot. New battery should be arriving in a couple days and we shall see if that works. If not, off to the Verizon store to convince a techie that the phone is an issue.
