Not sure what the issue was as to the extremely short battery life, but as far as tracking goes, I went back to using Cyclemeter for that. I was using Cyclemeter (with a Wahoo RFLKT) before I bought the Bolt and it worked for all day rides, like my cross state rides, without needing to recharge the battery. Since I don't use Live Tracking all that much, I'll just stick with using Cyclemeter and use the Bolt for everything else.
