Samsung Galaxy S2 charging problem.?

I just got this phone, but no matter what I do it will not hold a charge for more than 24 hours.

I have disabled sync and auto updates, have no notifications running, very simple wallpaper, etc. I have tried apps like Juice defender, Battery Doctor, etc ( just think of all the top rated apps) . I always wait until the battery has less than 3% to charge too. I really like this phone but even yesterday whenI did not use it at all, it only lasted 22 hours.

    22 Hours isn't to bad for an out of the box S2. If you want to get more life out of your battery, you have 2 options.

    Option 1: Root your Galaxy S2 and use a ROM that has all bloat-ware removed, that should help.

    Option 2: Purchase an extended life cell phone battery (I use one on my S4 and i get 2 days worth of battery time)
