I'm running cm7 nightly 138, and just wondering if they batter lifes improved from in the newer nightlys? I may just go back to a rooted stock rom as the battery was better with those.
I'm on nightly 144 and my battery is fine.
I just switched to that, so I'll see how it goes.

i have been running flipz newer rom with the new unreleased kernal and my battery life is AMAZING, I mean very very good. I was thinking about giving CM6 a try again with flashing the new v7.6 kernal thats supposed to be really good.
But I was wondering what people are getting with cm6 and the kernals as far as batt life.
Ive never personally flashed a kernal before so not sure on how well or how much they affect the phone or if its worth it.
any help? like as far as the best kernal for a CM6 rom and and reports on batt life comapred to the new leaked kernal
I'm getting better battery life on stock now, then I was on any other modded kernel (kings, cm6, and some others.)
Nand backup and give it a shot. It seems way to better to me than stock or even cm6 nightly with newest kernel.
also whats the difference between bfs and cfs roms?
i feel batt life with CM6nightly + snap7.6 in turbo mode is about how the phone was when it was first released...you can make it a day with light use, but using it a ton, i seem to get around 8-10 hours.
However...getting 2600+ in Quadrant and no lag, anywhere, ever...makes up for it. I'm always within reach of a USB port or wall outlet so i just carry the charger/cord around with me.
I haven't actually ran it from full to dead outside of work. However at work i constantly drop signal and regain it repeatedly for the 8~ hours i'm here.
hey everyone, I just came from the dinc (died on me) and my insurance gave me the dinc 2 and i am looking to get it back to what i had before. on the dinc i was using cm7 as I thought is was the better of the aosp's now i come to the dinc2 and it is still in nightly phase so I ask what aosp would you recommend?
tl:dr CM7 as senseless rom or is there a more stable one? OMGB for example
Actually, the CM7 nightlies are doing quite well. It won't be long before you see an RC, that's for sure. I tried running CM7 with the Tiamat kernel and got amazing results, but I was never a fan of barebones AOSP.
Cm7 is really good. I haven't loaded the last few nightlies because there haven't been any changes. I'm using JDkernel as I had some crashes with Tiamat. On my device JD is stable to the top setting of 1920mhz, although my quadrant scores don't improve over 1593mhz.

Definitely more than good enough for your daily driver. I rooted 4? days ago and have been running the last few nightlies and have had zero issues.
I too came from the Odinc and CM7 is as good here as it was there so far.
CM7 is my favorite because its options, it's polished, stock kernel is flexible and gets me to ~1500mHz with outstanding battery life. The key is it delivers superior performance and battery life while being "stock" CM. I'm referring to the nightlies throughout.
I am a little bummed to see the nightly updates seemed to have stalled a bit since CyanogenMod (the Man) was signed at Samsung. http://cm-nightlies.appspot.com/?device=vivow
Thanks for the info guys, now can I ask, how are you getting those numbers with OC-ing and what are you using to adjust the frequency?
another satisfied CM7 customer here...I've been running the nightlies for the greater part of a month (with the Tiamat kenel) and I couldn't be happier
you can set CPU frequency within CM7 settings, for more detailed control you'll need something like SetCPU
Hi I was having issues with my phone over the last few days, it was slaughting my batteries. Had to go to the sprint store and get a new one. I think maybe it's because I installed 1 of the nightly builds a couple of days after Thanksgiving. Right now I'm running CM7.1 stable on it,after I went through 2 batteries figured I should change the rom out. Is there a test to preform so I can ensure it's not a hardware issue vs the nightly build I was running ? I don't wanna have to go throught this again.
I typically run sense ROMs but I have run CM for a little while. What kernel are you using? A friend of mine is running CM7 and is using savaged zen and has pretty good luck with it. I have had bad battery life when switching between ROMs before as well, usually when I swap kernels. Typically it takes a couple days for the ROM to settle in and battery life to get back to normal.
I had terrible battery life with my EVO before I rooted it and ended up buying an extended battery for it before I rooted it. I am currently running the Shooter 3D rom with the chopsuey kernel and I get great battery life out of that. You may want to try a different rom for a few days as well and see if you notice any difference.

If your looking for a ROM that has good battery life and is stable give Energy Sensation XL 3.5 a go it is a very stable ROM with great battery life when you use the stock kernal with it. I was able to get about 30hrs of use before it required a charge.
Hey,
yeah that just sounds like the rom, nightly bulids are most of the time good, but you never know what you are going to get with them. try a differnt kernal or even rom which ever better suits you! Good luck to you! and happy flashing!

However, the front facing camera and few other features do not work on EVO with ICS... ... Do your research before installing.
ICS
I am new to posting as I've always had help flashing new ROMs on my phone. I'm out of luck and out of help with my phone. I have the HTC EVO on Sprint and loaded the latest ICS 2.0 CM9. This ROM and the previous ICS versions have all sucked the battery life beyond what is talked about on these forums. Everything else works great as all the posts say, but my battery life is TERRIBLE. I cannot go 5 hrs without my phone about to die with hardly any usage.
Notable things. It only happens when I am not on WiFi. My battery also heats up during the times the battery is draining. The health of the battery is fine as I've tried several different batteris.
Kernel Version 2.6.38.8 -Mason-El-0.1.5-RC5-sbc
CM Version - PapaSmurf 51 Smurfed Out CM9 2.0
Should I be trying to flash a new kernel, radio? If so, where is the latest downloads? I have been trying to a find the most stable ICS version that will not suck the battery life out of my phone.
Hi everyone,
I'm new to modding and recently just started flashing ROMs on my GNex having it for close to 2 years.
I've read and heard that franco Kernel improves battery life and performance.
I tried CyanogenMod because it seems like a popular and stable rom.
However, when I flashed them onto my GNex, I noticed that my battery drains quicker. I'm not sure if I'm more sensitive to it because now I can see a number indicator for my battery. But I had instances where even when I'm plugged in and just using the phone (I think just surfing the net), I would lose charge.
Is that because CyanogenMod does not work well with franco Kernel?
