hi,
i just flashed my elf to SX 6.0 WM 6.5.
i found out that the battery life in decreasing and i wonder is it due to the rom or is it the weakening of my battery.
previously i was using SX 1.1 WM 6.1
my battery now only last about a day standy
normal usage of a hour and sms daily the battery lasts less than a day.
can anyone help me figure this out?
im worried that i'll spend on a new battery and finding out later that it wasn't the battery's fault.

have u used a hard cid .when u updated ur rom
me 2 i have that probem after i flashed my phone
last update was ONYX 4.8
I tried SX 6.0 and had the same experience - it was on standby pretty much the entire time and had 100% charge. About 20hrs later of just being on standby (GSM on Edge network, no bluetooth/wifi enabled), it was down to 40% battery.
I also noticed, after trying a WM 6.1 ROM that it was much more responsive, though I don't know if all 6.5's are noticably sluggish compared to 6.1 (elfin).
I was thinking it may just be the ROM... that perhaps it had a bit "too much" or something. I was going to try SX 4.1 but the download links are dead now!
If anyone has a copy of SX 4.1, put up a link?
What SPL/IPL are you using now?
SLP 3.14 sucks the life out of my baterry so I switched to 3.10
battery now lasts about 1 1/2days standby and almost a day when using it heavily
I just got word that the battery life from SX 6.0 was due to it having M2D 2.0 on it which is apparently heavy on cpu and battery.
I had purposefully not upgraded to SPL/IPL 3.14 because of the reports of poor battery life with it - I too am using 3.10.
I would have thought though (this is my first touch - I'm coming from an old Motorola V635 which would last a week on one charge with my light usage) that the battery on one of these things would last more than just 1-2 days without a recharge. I'm trying to recondition my battery right now to see if it will give me a bit more life.
I agree that M2D 2.0 drains battery faster, that's why I replaced it with SPB Shell so it lasts longer...

try calibrating your battery

if it's still not enough then buy a new high capacity battery

Unfortunately you will not get great battery life as the HD2 is a power hungry phone with a battery that is too small for the phone. You will find most roms are similar despite what people might claim. Try setcpu or similar to improve battery life. Try currentwidget to monitor how much power the phone uses especially with the screen off in standby - you should be looking at 5ma or below. If you get more than a day with moderate usage you will be lucky.
OK, I will try currentwidget.
Thank you!
Currentwidget is recommended in this situation
what is the latest android rom with best battery life?
last android rom im using lasts only 6 hours with the extended battery .... im looking for a rom with long battery life so it can last for at least a day ......
Which rom did u have?
As usually, all roms are the same in battery life, but 2.3.7 are better than 4+
So, it's the question, what u want from ROM
What's the best ROM for battery life, with no noticeable battery drain?
Unlocked and rooted.
My current ROM (AICP) drains the battery right in front of my eyes. In 4-6 hours it's dead.

Most of the time it's not necessarily the rom, but the apps. Only things like network standby are rom-specific. Can you post pics of your battery stats page?
Is there any Rom that have good performance and good battery life?
highest performing rom right now is EvoX, dont knoe about the battery life tho
