Hey there guys my question is how can i improve battery life on my Evo? My phone is flashed with CM6.1, i flashed a theme called MattedBlue, I also flashed SnapTurbo v7.6bfs which i heard is for more stability and that it wouldn't effect my battery life, I currently get about 9 1/2 hours, heavily using the music player(PowerAMP). I heard some kernels would greatly help with battery life i just don't know which ones and will they work with CM6.1?

sense is a UI not an OS
as for battery life, it depends on ur needs, live wallpaper, auto sync, 3G and wifi etc.... i'd say the stock 2.2 would do the job
Leedroid 2.3d with coutt's kernel gave me the best battery life.
Now on a HD Port (see siganture) - also having a good battery life - up to 2.5days.

so u swapped out the official leedroid kernel for coutts and it improved battery life? im on leedroid right now but lattery isnt reallky impressing me. ive had it running 17 hours and i got like 54 percent.
You probably won't get much better battery life, it really depends on your usage. Also, since your on telus you always have 3g on so that drains it quite a bit more. I can last a lot longer if i'm on 2g compared to 3g on fido.
I want to ask you guys from your experiences which rom have you got the best battery life. I flashed mainly all the current roms (MIUI, Virus, and etc.) I haven't got great battery life from any. So if you guys can recommend me one. I don't mind old roms as well. Such as sense 2.2 roms and such.
Generally ROMs don't affect battery life it's usually the kernel.
Also, to say that font is hard to read would be an understatement.
Wasn't trying to be rude.
As far as battery life goes I would consult this thread if you haven't already.
Unfortunately, because no phone is the exact same, battery life can vary from Evo to Evo.
There have been talks about the newer linux kernel builds [all the aosp kernels are based off the newer ones] using more battery than the older ones.
Personally, I have seen a slight decline in battery life since moving to the newer Linux kernels.
I would start with that with that link I gave you first...it really does significantly improve your battery life.
I've personally found the best battery life with the combination of decks rom 1.2z, savagedzen 2.2.1 and viperboys script @-75
Hi All,
I updated my phone to ARHD 9.7.2 but i see a little help with battery drainage, have seen that some custom kernels can help with getting a better Battery Life.
Is anybody out there using the custome kernel and getting a good battery life.
Note: I use it mostly for calls and WiFi and some gaming it last me only 6hrs max :'(
Different ROM + different kernel = different result
You have to test it yourself and tell which combination is the best for you..
And for God sake there's no need to make another thread like this..
This thread belong to Battery Stats thread..just keep your post there..
All the best..
Just got myself this tab.
Any tips on extending battery life and which roms, if any, help with this?

A custom kernel should do the work. Try ElementalX or Glitch or even Franco if you're not very experienced. Make sure you set the Location to Battery Saving also. Settings>Location.
Auto-Brightness is good but also a bit of a battery killer. Do without it for more juice.
I'm also a moderately new owner of a Nexus 7 and from my experience so far, every single one of the custom roms are really really good. Its very hard to choose. I would recommend CarbonRom and CleanRom
Hi guys. I've been on XDA a long time but I know next to nothing about under/overclocking safely.
I basically just want to use my N7 as an e-reader for a while and I was just wondering what your thoughts are on what the best rom/kernel combo/settings would be for achieving the best battery life and screen on time?
I'm currently running CM 12.1 with the stock kernel and power saver switched on. It's better battery life than on stock but not a great deal more.
Thanks!
