So I flashed my phone last night with caulkins new rom, and can't figure out how to get the best battery life out of it. It has been unplugged for about two hours and I'm down to 75 percent with lite usage. Also where I'm at the cell service isn't the best, so I'm sure that is playing part of it. Thanks and I'm sorry if I posted in the wrong spot.

Give it a day or two. I noticed that when using the kernel he included that if I let it drain down and then recharged it that it seemed to get battery life after a day or two. Also, try other kernels. All kernels to different things better than others. You just need do some trial and error and see which one gives you the best life for your needs.
I'm in a dilemma! For the last week I've been hunting around to find the right combination of Kernels and Roms. Natively I'm a CM ASOP man. But I've tried everything from CM to MIUI to Ava to Mym. None of the roms are giving a decent amount of battery life. I've tried several combinations of Kernels also. My battery life has been as terrible as 3 hours. I'm talking about losing a percent every minute!
I didn't buy an extended battery. But I have tried a brand new regular battery to make sure that I didn't have a bad battery. Both batteries have the same results under all combinations of Kernels and Roms.
I've seen members braggin on having 12 to 18th hours of life under heavy use! How is that possible!? Lol! I know it has to do with device, kernel, rom combinations.
Can the awsome members of the GREAT Xda please help me out? Point me in the right direction. fyi: I have a ver 003 device and also I don't overclock much at all but I underclock to try and save a lil juice!
Thanks in advanced!

No matter what rom/kernel combination I run I get really ****ty battery life with the stock red HTC battery. For me personally investing the $70 or so for the Seidio extended battery on Amazon was worthwhile. I also purchased their wall charger as well.
I'm not going to blow smoke up your ass and say that the battery last 2 days with heavy use because thats BS. However, with heavy use (running emulators, gmail sync, occasional bluetooth for wii mote, texting, web browsing, etc) I can get through a 9 hour work day with a lil life to spare.
At least go on amazon and get a1800 mah battery. They are cheap but goood.

I just bought another stock battery and a wall charger, I keep the spare in my wallet and battery life is a non issue now.
Check out batteryboss.org before buying an aftermarket one though, most of them are rips offs.
I'm not sure about rip offs on amazon but certainly ebay..i bought two batteries w/a charger for $25..and a third one since my oem battery took a bath, fully charged.

I'm going to research some better batteries. I appreciate the intel. But my thing is I know I can get a few more hours of battery time with a simple kernel modification. Loosing 1% a minute is unheard of lol. Like now: I had 100% when I started this reply and I'm officially at 95% as I press Submit lol! Terrible

You should see if you can get a replacement battery from sprint. I am using CM7 nightly 24, and can easily sustain 24+ hours with the OEM red battery.
Everyone will have different results even with the same rom/kernel, however the drain that your experiencing does sound like your battery might be going bad.

I see your stats and that sh*t is wicked! I used CM7 and that one drains the quickest lol.... before I cash out on a new extended battery where's an abundant source of Kernels? I've tried three and I wanted to do a little process of elimination before I pull out my visa lol
Sent from my PC36100 using Tapatalk
There aren't very many CM7 kernel's available yet, so few that I can't even begin to tell you where to start looking, for Sense roms though, search for Netarchy those kernels work really well.
I see... I appreciate that! Imma give Mym a try with a few of them Kernels. Thanks again for the help
And what exactly is the Kernel that you are using!? Lol
Sent from my PC36100 using Tapatalk
Honestly, I've found that the right kernel makes the biggest difference and setcpu, juicedefender, etc only make it worse. For me (also 003 hw) kings kernel and htc # 15 uv have been best. I've had great success with azrael and vaelpak roms. Currently on vaelpak with kings # 11 with NO battery saving apps. I get 24 hours with my regular use. Yesterday was very light, I went 24 hours with just under 50% left.

This is what I've been testing for a while. This build contains auto bump charging based on the voltage as opposed to the full charge method. I don't know how it works on extended batteries yet...but works pretty good on stock batteries. With this, you should have a better chance of picking up the phone at higher voltages.

I flashed the ver 8 with CM6. 1.2. so far I've gotten slightly better battery life. 20 minutes and I'm still on 99%. That's a whole lot better than losing 1% a minute lol! I'm still going to do another exhaustive research to pinpoint the best combination!

I know you guys said that setcpu can make matters worse. Is it alright if I use it to underclock to 245x245 when the screen is off and if the battery ever goes over 110°F automatically? That's the only profiles i use to help with battery maintenance

If your still using CM7, it has its own built in setCPU, I have mine set to ondemand 245min, 768max, and sorry for the delayed response, I went to lunch, however the Kernel I am using for my CM7 flash is just the stock kernel that comes with the initial build if CM7.

Are you rooted?
I use the stock battery on my rooted Evo and it lasts all day.
It really does depend on weather your rooted or not cuz on my stock battery I can go about a day in a half maybe a couple hours less MAYBE but then I have a Seidio 3500 mAh that can go exactly 2 days 1 hour and 38 minutes with heavy heavy use and also on a charge of 93 percent
So again are you rooted?

Any stock kernel will not charge any extended battert correctly. I experimented with this for the last month.
I found an app called boot manager and now have 4 roms installed on my phone. At night I boot into a Froyo ROM with a SBC kernel and charge it, then in the am, boot into my Gingerbread ROM.

Yep. If I don't use my phone it will last all day and lose about 1.5% every two hours. I just recently switched to my current setup and am still not used to it. I'll unplug my phone at ~95% and head out the door. I'll pull it out of my pocket a number of hours later and see that it's only down to about 93% - 92%. Before I switched my setup I would've been down the low 80's if not lower. When I use it my battery depends on what I am doing with it and what I have my scaling set to. Using my phone for things like texting, facebook, email, and some web browsing on Skyfire, which is what I would consider heavy use, it goes down about 3.5% per hour. Yesterday I went to my little niece's dance class and I used my phone to record video of her entire 60 minute dance class. Battery went down about 30% percent from that but that's to be expected. I remained out of the house for another 8 hours after her class and my phone still had 50% battery left by the time I got home. Wireless tether eats up my battery. But Thats because I am usually tethering while texting and testing launchers and such on my phone.
I do all of this on a stock battery. So I can only imagine how much I'd be able to do with an extended battery.

No oc or uving, this is complete stock KL1 kernel they way it came with the phone. I actually had great battery life (about 17 hours) on stock, but I switched to other custom kernels and didnt have so great battery life. So, I was looking for a stock kernel and in the end made this one and flashed today. So battery life should be like stock.

Thanks. I am getting ****ty battery life also. I have tried everything, faux's, bullet, synergy's different versions, Gideon's UV scripts, underclocking, undervolting, with complete wipe, different roms, you name it. I still I lose 20+% battery per hour while I read on my phone. 10-11% if its idle. Completely ridiculous. Just tonight I thought of trying the stock kernel. Plus anytime my phone is awake, the top portion of my phone gets hot. I'm hoping its a kernel issue.

That sounds really bad. I was getting horrible battery life on other kernels but not that bad (i got around an average of 7-8 hours on custom kernels). However, one thing about stock kernel is that once you flash it, you have to give it 2-3 days -sometimes more- to get full capacity battery life (around 17 hours heavy use for me).
I'll test it out. My only concern was that the phone would warm up for no reason. The only time my phone can save battery is in flight mode. 7 hours in flight mode take about 5-8% battery. So the issue is most likely radio/kernel related IMO. Even having sync/data off didn't help much. I also average 7-8 hours. It's just that when I have the phone on to a dark screen with white text on it (opera mini, it has no fancy stuff, good reader browser) I would lose at least 15% in about 45 minutes. This is with no music, no data activity at the lowest brightness setting.
So this is my battery life after the first day. I would say today was lots of heavy use for me. Usually around this time im charging from dead, but with this kernel I still have 30 percent left to go. So about 15-16 hours on one charge with heavy use .I've tried all the custom kernels and this is the best I've ever gotten....
This one helped lots. I unplugged my phone at 1AM (100% charged) and then put it in flight mode. At 7AM I turned off flight mode and had used up 1% in 6 hours. From then till 3:30 I went down to 50%.
shehrammajid,
Thanks for the stock kernel. I am also trying to learn how to build a stock kernel. I have made a post here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=22845175

I give up.every ROM I run just doesn't have the battery life expected. Am I expecting to much? Not even Cauks or blazer el29 doesn't give the battery life as stock.don't get me wrong they are all great roms but at least for my device not battery friendly. I'll post some battery stats from BBS if anybody has some free time to see what's going on. I'm on Cauks el29 now.I format everything before flashing and I use cauks format all many times.

Well when is the last time you used stock? And if it's been quite a while...consider having your battery checked out. Anyway, I'll continue as if your battery is fine from here on out. Basically, anything but stock tends to have a modified kernel. Even with all the battery tweaks, etc out there, there's a chance that the kernel itself might not play well with your phone. I'm not too versed in that, but I also noticed that the TouchWiz based ICS kernels/ROMs give MUCH better battery life than AOSP based kernels/ROMs such as CM9 and AOKP, etc. This is just basic stuff you might already know, but yeah, just go on and post your battery stats, preferably with a custom rom and a stock rom so we can see the difference and where it lies. Also, I'm running Touched by a Galaxy S3 on my phone and with moderate use (music for maybe a few hours a day, texting, don't really make many calls) I average between 8.5 and 11 hours from 100 to 0. Another thing I'd suggest is download CPU Spy from the Android market, or something similar if you prefer, and post screenshots from that on the custom ROM; the problem with AOSP and certain other GB and TW ICS roms that i've seen is that something prevents the processor from going into deep sleep mode, usually keeping it at 200mhz or higher. Lastly, when you use the custom roms, do you notice the phone getting really hot compared to the stock roms?
I'm assuming you know this but are you letting the battery cycle a few times before passing judgement? I usually spend a week on a rom before I decide if I have good/bad battery life... attached screenie is normal for me with moderate use on mijjhs goodness rom

Agree, everyone have different experiences, I haven't try that ROM yet, I will test it out later. Have a nice day/night sir.
Sadly I have to agree with OP.
And the previous screenshots at 59% with 1hr, 36 screen on is exactly the issue.
Hard to compare your battery stats with mine since screen on time for my phone will be 4+ hours.
Since there are no standardized testing anyone can do with any rom, any speculation on which rom has better battery life or doesn't is just pure bogus seat of the pants gut feelings.
If there were a standard test that ran like. 5 minutes of mail with 20 mails received, 10 minutes download, 30 mins of playing the exact same video, 13 music tracks of the exact same song all with screen, vibration, brightness, etc all at the exact same level, you could get a real test, but, alas, nobody has a standardized test.
For MY usage, stock clocks in at the same as or better than just about any other rom I've tried, including all the various super scripts out there.
I guess I just overuse my phone!

Things drain battery. This is my test off wifi for the most part using the phone as a phone with average use. Didn't even log in to Google on this one. Just proof that intensive applications, google services, and anything else added after a "factory flash" can manipulate battery life significantly.
Oh, and check out drain when I'm in less than ideal coverage. Noticeable difference. One huge factor to consider when diagnosing battery life.
It really depends on what you're doing with the phone. Obviously having brightness up playing heavy games with Wimax on will kill battery faster than someone on low brightness reading an ebook with wifi on. That said, i agree that I've had better battery life stock than almost all ics roms.
