Try to remove yourself but if the card doesnt spring out, its confirmed stuck n u need samsung folks to remove it for u. They need to open up the tab.

Adapter with a sticker, is asking for trouble. Get those without sticker, that has grooves for you to place the u-sim properly.

That probably won't be a good idea as well. My adaptor (with groove for micro-sim) nearly got stuck cause the micro-sim slipped out of the groove when I was removing it. Luckily for me, nothing was damaged & I managed to remove the sim card.

bottom line, try not to use micro-sim adaptor if possible...

Are you downloading stuff from the internet? If not, its a batt failure, get it fix.

For Andriod, the night never sleep.... this is something we all have to bear with it. I remenber there is 2G/3G toggle app in the market, not sure this help to prolong battery life. Hope someone can develop a program to auto turn off 3G and set to airplane mode at predefine timing...

Try stopping all background programs and freeing up the RAM before turning off the device. Or do a restart for the device before sleeping.
Probably there is some program running or downloading something at the background, that's why its draining so quickly.
If its still draining so quickly, its most likely a battery fault then.

*pardon my post spam cuz I'm using my phone to reply so its quite a pain in the arse to use the multiquote function*
