Im looking for a stock rom with no changes to it that allows me to keep root. I Looked through all the older threads in development but it seems there have been updates and such. Right now I am running CM 6.1 and it seem my batt is dying way faster then it did on a stock rom. I'd like to compare them and such. If anyone has one or can point me in the right direction i'd be happy! Thank you!

Yes, I am experiencing higher drain as well. Search the development section for cr_mod, look for the CR_Mod OTA 1.35.something. It's the rooted stock ROM with a wireless tether built in, OTA update and all. That's what your looking for. I flashed dumfuq's OC 4.0 kernel over the stock ROM and got better battery life than the stock HTC kernel, so I also recommend doing that. I'm on cm6.1 stable now, so I can easily modify themes, since it's AOSP based, and also so I can use the gingerbread latin_IME keyboard, since you need at least froyo to do that.

Hey thanks! I went back for about 8 hours and hated it. Im back on CM 6.1 and im getting terrible battery life still. IDK, I am going to try and reformat my SD card and reflash at a full battary etc. I migh ttry the kernel, but, I really don't want any OC of any kind, just maybe a lower standby setting, something in the range of 50mhz while the screen is off or something.

I cant see how formating an sd card could help. Anywho, cm 6.1 has the oc kernal already built into it. You dont need to flash any kernals, just use setcpu to adjust the speed.

50 MHz is too low. 245 is the lowest option

I said try flashing dumfuq 4.0 over it because I THINK, not positive, but I was speculating that cyanogen had modified the kernel slightly that was causing a battery drain issue, because I stopped having so many issues with it when I flashed dumfuq's 4.0 kernel over it. Sounds weird, but it helped. I still have an occasional glitch where something is holding a wakelock on the system and it won't go to sleep, which is really annoying, and I think I traced it back to the music app, but still not sure there. I've been off of the charger for over an hour, with just 11 minutes of screen on and screen is 71% of the usage while cell standby is 11%, that's what makes me think flashing dumfuqs 4.0 fixed it. Cyanogen must've made a modification.
So, also @ the OP, go into spare parts battery history and see what is using it. If "running" is up above like 30 or 50% then you have something holding a wakelock, go to partial wake usage, and look at the app or UID that's got the wakelock. Rebooting normally gets rid of the lock for me, like I said, haven't quite figured it out yet.
Don't get me wrong, I love Myn's ROM and this thread is in no way a "lets derail Myn from his glory thread."
For one, my android system is running at 96% and I have absolutely no idea why. I flashed Calkulins new radio pack about 3 weeks ago along with his ROM and had no problems at all. I then switched to MIUI for awhile while I was waiting for RLS 5 to come out and since flashing RLS 5 I have had this problem and can't get rid of it. It doesn't matter what kernel I use, I still have upwards of 90% android system usage of the battery. I would like to figure this out or I may have to switch roms.
Another thing,
For some reason, after I just recently flashed to Myns RLS 5 Pandora sounds like it is playing out of a tin can. I have the higher quality settings turned on and it still sounds like crap, way worse than it did on any previous ROM. I'm wondering how I can fix this?
These problems are really starting to irritate me and I would very much love it if someone would help me out here.
Thanks

I have had the same issue with the android system taking up 90% + or my battery as well and it started after I flashed Myn's RLS5. Here is my post:

I have all the latest updates for radios and Pandora sounds fine!
i've heard that flashing the entire update (radios, wimax, pri, nv)
causes the uptime on a lot of roms. i think your best bet would be flash the 1.77 PRI in calkulins thread. ive kept 1.77 pri and NV and my phone is just fine running myns RLS5 right now as a matter of fact. good luck hope this helps man.

Im not having any up time issues. My phone sleeps just fine, its the android system that is taking up over 90% + or my batery usage and its made my battery life crap.
Hmm...that's odd...I flashed the rom via Rom Manager, did a few optional updates with it, and the only thing I had to do was flash the 132 radio, my phone great, no FC, nothing.....Hell, I should take this phone into the local sprint store to show them how the SHOULD RUN!
hmmm well this is my solution and it come straight from netarchy in his thread

and ultimately thats really what it sounds like man, flash a different kernal if you really feel the need to do something besides a PRI downgrade, but i firmly believe that myns RLS5 is just fine.
try downgrading the PRI and NV then post back worse case scenario you have to upgrade again and that takes a whopping 5 minutes

My big thing is that my phone is sleeping just fine. If you look at the second post and click on the link you will see screen shots of my up time and awake time which is like:
up time is like 46 hrs or some **** and awake time is like 6 hrs. So my problem is that the "Android System" is taking up 90% + of my battery use. I generally get a little over a day of lite to moderate use out of my battery but since I flashed rls5 its only been like 7 - 12 hrs(not that I am complaining) but I would just like to figure this out. Also some thing else I noticed was that in the spare parts app under network usage the top selection is "0" and when I click on it it just says "process com.android.settings has stopped unexpectedly. and please try again?
could this be related to the gingerbread menu upgrade? I have that flashed. Do you or have you ever?

i read your post, have you tried downgrading yet. im almost guaranteeing it will improve battery life the new 1.90 updates dont play well with a lot of roms causing ridiculous battery drain. now regardless if it shows its from the android system/networking problem or not im not knowledgeable enough to answer that, but my android system runs at 19% running myns rls5 and the 1.77 PRI and NV updates just saying..you might really want to consider just TRYING it ya know?

I love the SBC kernels and have read almost every post about them frying batterys. So I ordered a 3500 and am waiting for it to get here and then I will switch kernels. What is the stock kernel that is running with rls5? HTC kernel 15? Thanks for doing the testing. I have 4 kids and got pulled away for awhile. I think I am going to flash the stock kernel for rls5. Do you think I should still downgrade my PRI? I also hit the thanks button. I really appreciate the time you took to figure this out!
Let me just chime in here to shed a little light and knowledge.
Your problem is 3.70 base Rom. It's not a sleep issue. Probably won't be solved by changing kernels. Doesn't look like bad battery life since the phone had not been charged for 42 hours, that's almost 2 days.
If you ask me you have what most ppl are looking to get, which is a full day of use and more. Now correct me if I am wrong but how is going 2 days with out charging a bad thing???
The android system high %'s is a 3.70 issue which has affected a lot of ppl on the forum. The issue has several remedies but the easiest is to just reboot directly after charging the phone. Some ppl have said changing the pri back to 1.77 solved the issue, others have said updating their radio solved the issue.
Please give me a little bit more information so I can research more in depth for you...
Edit: Also let me state the facts here, please don't discredit someone else's work by saying a certain kernel,Rom, theme or recovery will damage a device. The sbc was a variable in ppl batteries being damaged and no one has proven that the kernel has indeed damaged their phone. Only here say...
I don't know if sbc is good or bad as the team I am working with are still in the testing stages with no clear answer, which probably won't come for months.

I honestly love the sbc kernels so I am showing no disrespect to the dev that put these together. My phone also loves the net kernels so Im not going to change at this point. Once you look at my screen shots from my post you will see that my battery only lasted 7 1/2 hours with lite to moderate use. Also there is another screen shot with the awake time and sleep time. One of they other things I noticed was that in the spare parts app under network usage the "thing" that has the highest usage is "0" and when I long press it to see what it is it just force closes. If you see my signature then you know what I am running.
Myn's rls5
all updated radios
nets 4.3.1 sbc more havs kernel
Please let me know if there is any other information you need that will help you dig in. I am off to bed, as I have 4 kids that have endless energy (boy if we could just bottle there energy and sell it as an energy drink...rich!), I will check back in the morning. Thanks for all your help in advance!
There is definately a problem with the rom released 1-7-11.
It will not allow installation of google usb tether program and the file explorer always seems to be working (spinning graphic). I do not think the previous rom had this problem but I can not be sure. Tried other non myn roms w/o problem, retried myn's and reconfirmed that there is a problem.
It seems that he changed a few things and had some sort of side effect.
Somebody should try running ps, ps -aux or top from a bash terminal to see what is really running. A look at the error log would not hurt either.
Interesting that you couldn't install that. I'm not sure why. The spinning I believe you are referring to is where ads would be. Myn added adblock to the role rls5. Most apps with ads (astro,xda, alchemy, etc) will display the loading circle instead. You can remove adblock. Just search the threads.

Have you tried the reboot right after charging? Also I read some where to go into airplane mode and then turn everything back on. Also when all else fail, not sure how you got to myn's but for the sake of safety do a fresh install of it with a wipe on everything. May also want to try caulk's format all zip.
Try the reboot then see, if that fails fresh install and then see.. let me know each time...
The 0 in spare parts in the android OS and it force close on everyone. Don't be alarmed by that.

I had the horrid battery life after upgrading to Myn's latest and the treo update radio pack. Downgrading my PRI didn't fix it. It was the kernel. I was having random browser fc also.
Went back to HTC #17 kernel and all is well. Try swapping just your kernel.
Hi, I am currently using Launcher Pro and Widgetdroid on my HTC Desire HD. I don't think I'll need HTC Sense for now. Is there a way to disable HTC Sense? I have a feeling its taking up lots of battery when its running together with Launcher Pro. Does it actually or I am just bad at battery management. I use juice defender and Android Booster. I might have gotten the settings wrong. Is there any other better suggestions? Please lemme know thanks.
head over the development section, there are tons of ROMs with HTC Sense launcher removed and replaced with launcher pro.
Hey i'm in the same boat as you and using Launcher Pro instead of HTC Sense. I would give your phone a restart after you've made Launcher Pro your default and that way HTC Sense isn't running in the background. I have a Custom Rom installed and generally get about 1 day and 17 hours of battery life, and thats with 3g on, wifi on, surfing the web, gaming. I personally wouldn't use any sort of Task managers seeing as the applications are closed automatically after a certain period of time when not used.
Am i correct in assuming your phone isn't rooted with a custom rom? If it isn't maybe you should consider rooting your DHD. I use to have quite poor battery life prior to rooting. Just about got 10hours out of it.
Try looking up on the net about your ROM tht your running.... I am using the latest LeeDroid ROM on my desire HD & using the recommend kernel & radio, I use to use an overclocking app but not anymore I find with this ROM, kernel, radio & Launcher pro plus I have a better battery life.
Try these tips -
1. Only use Bluetooth, wi-fi, gps, mobile network when you need it
2. Turn auto brightness off, set it as low as possible & only change when needed
3. Flash the recommend kernel & radio for your Rom they will improve your all round usage & battery life of your phone
4. If using a overclocking app don't overclock or underclock too much, this will drain the battery faster!
5. Task killers are not worth using, just keep an eye on what is earring up your battery with a system app & if you find a battery killer app just uninstall it & use a different less draining one
6. Charge your battery to 100% when flashing a new rom, cause some roms delete the battery cailibration.zip file! Just d/load the battery cailibration app from the market charge tour phone to 100%, flash your rom, reboot, charge back to 100%, leave for 10 or 15minutes after at a 100%, thn let your phone drain to 0 thn recharge to 100% your phone should now know the correct battery cailibration & you should notice the difference in battery life
Hope this improves your battery

From a full charge I get a battery drain while sleeping of about 1-3% drain & thts on about 5-7hrs, then my phone goes for about 10+ hrs with some mobile data usage for checking Facebook, Twiter, Xda & Tapatalk. With plenty of txt messaging & a few short calls here & there! My phone is running LeeDroids latest custom rom, kernel & radio. Much better & faster than when I was unrooted & using the orig HTC sense rom!

Hi, which section can I find the contents to root my phone. You are right my phone isn't rooted. I was planning to root and install HTC Sense 3.0 rom and then run it under Launcher Pro. Do you reckon its a good idea?
It seems to me that everyone in here has rooted their phone and is using LeeDroid rom. Where can I find it ? Thanks
Rooting has been made pretty easy these days. I did it on my first try. Also just as a warning there is always a slight chance you might brick your phone so make sure you read up on everything before you try any of it. I personally spent a couple of hours reading up before i tried it.
Once your rooted you can choose from a variety of Custom Roms for example Leedroid, Android HD, RCMIX etc all of which provide excellent battery life and differnt features. So it's up to you to pick which one you like. I personally chose Leedroids Rom.
This post will tell you how to root: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=841076&highlight=how+to+root
You might have an upgraded DHD in which case you need to downgrade first so check this link out: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=905003
And this is a link to Leedroids Rom: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1056727
Keep in mind you won't obviously be able to use it until you've rooted up your DHD.
I'm not an expert at this so if anyone else can add to this please feel free to help out our fellow DHD user.
Also this is just to get you to start reading up. I'll start reading up myself to give you a walkthrough.
To start off if you could please give us your Software Info. You do that by menu > settings > about phone (at the bottom) > software info..and just type out whats there please so we can tell you if you need downgrading.
I've just read through it. Seems pretty straightforward and it's the same pages I used when i rooted my DHD. So first downgrade if you need to. then follow up on the first link i posted. and just go through the instructions.
Any problems just post it here.
I will get back to you tomorrow thanks
Hi, if you root your phone you can remove sense by flashing a no-sense script in recovery (if you read the rooting guide you will know what recovery is). The no sense script can be found on the first post in the Android Revolution HD thread in the development section or there is a no-sense++ script in the themes and app section.
NOTE: THIS WILL COMPLETELY REMOVE SENSE. but it can be restored by flashing your Rom again.

Hi, sorry to get back to you so slow. My android version is 2.2.1... What other informations do you need?

I don't know if I have been spoiled by Nokia, because I had a Nokia E72 with a tiny screen a 1500Ah battery (Two days connected with EDGE/Wifi updating Whatsapp and Gravity).
I just need Whatsapp and any Twitter application running al the time.. 3G or HSPDA is not a must, I could live with EDGE for battery saving.
I have tried:
Stock 2.3 ROM
Oxygen COS'ed
CM7 RC1
Minwild 4.9 CM
I don't care about fancy widgets and so... I just want battery life... sometimes I use the screen with 10% brightness!
Please, help me! Help will be highly appreciated.
PD: Moto RZR MAXX is too expensive
PD2: I'm using lastest radio and have not messed with Kernels, always using the one that comes with each ROM.
PD3: Testing is so easy, I wonder if someone have done that before? Install ROM, install whatsapp and twitter, config, fully charge, see it discharge and take the time and try with another ROM, right know I don't have the time, but that's what I want to do...!
Bets regards.
Far as I know those roms aren't exactly power hungry.
ManU kernel is recognized for batter saving.
You can use with MildWild CM version.
For oxygen I think you have to use thalamus kernel.
I'm using Oxygen V4 MildWild with latest thalamus kernel and with normal use (wifi once in a while but usually switched off, some browsing, some phone calls, some texts and even a little game once in a while) it lasts me a full day. If I play too much, the battery can last as three hours (with bat, intensive games).

If I play too much, the battery can last as three hours (with bat, intensive games).

Thanks...
Which ROM uses ManU kernel? I'd like to try that one.
Right now I'm using Oxygen Cosed with Thalamus (I think)
I dont think there is a rom that uses ManU kernel by default. But as long as a rom is based on CM7 I believe you can replace the default one with ManU.

Not entirely true. Oxygen rom and those that use it as base need to use Thalamus kernel. Using ManU on Oxygen roms for example will break your camera.

Thanks for your answer.
What do you mean by breaking the camera? I suppose only software...!
Thanks for letting me know that, I was going to flash ManU kernell with Oxygen Cosed! So I'll flash it over MinWildCM.
There is a lot of reading about roms but not about kernels!

The best rom for battery, performance and stability is none other than GINGER VILLAIN. If you look at the screenshot most of juice is gone into display as I like 100% display. I am sure you can save further battery with switching off wifi, mobile data, gps, vibrations, display etc. But this rom is pretty much beating other rooms. Only problem people find is there are no future updates for this rom. If you looking for above all then go for this rom.
Hit thanks if it helps you.
Cheers

When you realize it is mostly a kernel thing, silliness off "best rom for battery" phrases will struck you like an epiphany.

I gave my old desire to my brother because the battery was dying , before I do so, I flashed MUIU rom, it seems fine when he is using it
OxygenMod worked well for me well.

And that would be about 50% correct. The rom does play an important role on battery consuption.
I know you asked about ROMs, but if you dont mind a thicker phone you could also consider an extended battery. I'm using a Cameron Sino 2400MAH battery, cost me £7 from Amazon UK and I get between 30 - 38 hours out of my Desire, depending on use. That's with ICS for Desire by Sandvold installed.
I cant post links yet but take a look at batteryboss.org and it mentions it as being "not a bad deal".
ICS works fine for me
I use the BCM - Ice Cream Sandwich from CM9 Source and it works fine for me. Been up for almost 16 hours with decent usage and pretty poor cell signal the whole time.
The lowest battery drain I've had was using Mildwild's Oxygen Based. Nearly 2 days of battery with pretty decent usage. See the attachments below: you might found them a bit dark cause they were made with screen filter at 50%.
- During night, phone had 2G (GPRS).
- Screen on-time: 3 hours, above 50% usage.
- Always with WiFi or HDSPA (3G) excepts during nights.
With battery perfectly calibrated (it shutdowns at 0%).
Just wondering what the best kernel is to flash to the stock UCLJ3 rom?
I'm suffering crazy battery drain since updating. I've done a ton of things including a full wipe and reflash, and it's still happening.
Only thing I havent tried, or done before is flash a kernel...
Any recommendations?

Haven't had any trouble with the battery drain using IcePop rom! but of course flashing any new rom, you have to let it settle for 1 to 2 days / charge cycles for the os to stabilize!
I've been running it since day of release.... Using battery apps all reports that the Android OS using a heavy % and/or the phone isnt always going into deep sleep.
And its happening even before I put a google account on or install any apps.
I suppose I could go back to G9 or the H2 release... might do it as a test, to see if it really is the J3 release thats causing me problems.

Which kernel are your running? Also check to see what your cpu governor is set to! Use system tuner from the market

Just the default I think... I dont believe I've done anything more than flash an entire ROM, and mostly rooted stocks.
Gonna give that app a try though, thanks for the tip.

I'm hoping to release a new an updated version if not tonight maybe by Monday! battery life should be good.
keep in mind that a deodexed rom will use a little more power!
Thanks
