   Wow!  2 weeks!  That's pretty good!  Meanwhile, your phone MIGHT have a   
   bluetooth or GPS or wifi option turned "on" where it could be set to normally   
   "off": this will save massive amounts of battery power over the course of a   
   week.  Secondly, it could    
   have been "jacked" if someone is spying on you (maybe not you personally, but   
   gathering data for purposes of selling demographic data to buyers.)  It   
   wouldn't *hurt* to take it to the sales-desk (if possible) and ask to have a   
   techy perform a hard reset (   
   totally returns the phone to "new" condition, although your email and photos /   
   videos will all be wiped as well.  It's better to XFER them to a cloud account   
   anyways.)
