Really? Is it idle when the battery is draining like that or is it in sleep mode? Have you checked to see what may be running in the background that could be causing this drain?

Ya, so can you help, or anyone please? I gotta send this back soon
If you have a "yakju" or "maguro" device, download the factory image from here and follow the instructions for flashing and it will get you back to stock.

How do I know which one to download ? :S

Here is the latest but only if you have a yakju/maguro product. If you have something else, I wouldn't flash anything from that page.

Is this just the stock recovery? I have my stock rom restored and boot loader locked. I just need stock recovery and I need to unroot

I will of course flash back to stock, but I was wondering would anything else be necessary to return it?

Just flash to stock and relock the bootloader and you are good to go.
Is there one about? I've searched but nothing came up

Make one. Or just get it (boot.img) from the update-XYZ.zip inside a factory image and flash with fastboot.

factory reset it (just to be safe) then grab and flash the appropriate image from here:
https://developers.google.com/android/nexus/images
In theory as long as you do not tamper with the flash-all.bat / flash-all.sh it will perform a wipe but it doesn't hurt to do a wipe before flashing. then use fastboot to lock the bootloader and you are back to out of the box stock configuration.
Does anyone know where I can find a vanilla Android recovery file to install?
Thanks
