Should be in Q&A. I would try reflashing the ROM.

Lookin for build/kernal with best battery

Performance doesnt matter.
2.2 or 2.1 doesnt matter.
Just something thats 100% stable with good battery.
I read that bionix final with ji2 radio is good. Right now im on rooted stock ji6
Any suggestions?

For me the leak froyo from enugene in odin format gave me the best battery. 2 days of light ussage didnt need a charger when i do 30 hrs calls and still have some left

If you like touch wiz, bionix final.
If you don't like touch wiz, bionix fusion 1.2.
You can use their core v3 kernel for both of these. Best battery life I've had by far.

KA7 battery... AWESOME

I have had my phone unplugged since about 9 AM with wifi on all day. Surfing the web normally, texting and one phone call and at 5:24 right now, still 72% left. Statistically the modem doesnt have the fastest speeds as ive seen(3.5 down 1 up) But unless your downloading hd movies or something all day it is perfect for everyday usage. More than fast enough.
Nero v5, ka7 modem flashed over with voodoo disabled.

If the links dont work in the quote then search for vibrant modems cwm and odin flashable. And download the ka7 modem. I have yet to find the ka7 kernel though. But yes if you want perfect gps with fast data and above average battery then get it

Ka7 with Voodoo and cpu tuner has made my battery life AWESOME, better than yours ;]
How long does it last? Oh yea just download cpu tuner. What setting do you use?
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA App
With constant 3g use mine drops kind of fast. I can already tell that the cpu tuner is helping
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA App
I noticed that the battery was lasting longer almost immediately. It usually would drop to 90% almost before I left the house in the morning but this morning it was still on 100%. I thought my battery indicator was not working.
Here I am almost a whole day (11 hours) with moderately heavy use playing online and reinstalling applications that I lost because I had to wipe my phone during the update and I still have 52%! Awesome.

Yeah loving battery life had it ob all day and at 82%. light use though, but I've truly seen a difference in life.
Nero v5 w/voodoo and ka7
Every tine I wake up my phone it says 'cpu tuner has been granted super user permissions.'
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA App
It lasts a super long time on edge. I rolled back off of 3G when I realized I was down to 2% and was on the road. It took 45 minutes for it to drop to 1%. I'm getting ready to test it over night with supercurio's modded KA7 Kernel. Should be interesting to see what SystemPanel says in the morning.
Can you odin just the modem without the whole image?
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA App
This is great.
For those curious, here's my battery life on Nero 5 running the KA7 modem w/ Supercurio's KA7+Voodoo Kernel. As you can see, I've already frozen pretty much every app and process that I know of that uses crazy CPU cycles (like Media Hub, DRM Processes, WiFi Calling, Score Mobile (because of the widget), Beautiful Widgets, and some other stuff. I also had all unnecessary stuff off like BT, WiFi and 3G rolled back to edge. My 3G signal is a LOT stronger as it was on any other modem so I know it uses some crazy battery life. I also reset my battery stats the other day and make use of the "CurrentWidget" although I turned it off when I let the battery drain.
I have one of the first Vibrant builds and there's no telling how many times I've bump charged my battery but all in all, I think these results are great. In loss in battery is worth it to have the speed and smoothness. Also, I don't know what Supercurio did, but a lot of the skipping I'd get when playing MP3's is gone. It's not perfect, but much, much better so someone played with some clocking for sure.

I had the same question but ended up just using the CWM Flash method. I downloaded the file, copied it to my sdcard, went to recovery and flashed it.
Works fine.
An even better modem is kb1. It has been 23 hours and I am still at 27%. Moderate use. Battery drains 2% in 8 hours of standby.

Strange problem I recently developed on my vibrant. Suggestions?

Ok so these last couple of days I've been having the strangest problem with my vibrant. The battery litterally sucks it self on the charger. For example, today at 3 in the morning I woke up to find my phone charging at 71% I was like ok good. Woke up at 7 and the phone was completly dead! It looses power on the charger. At first i thought it was the battery so i switched it. And whattya know. Still the same problem. Then i thought it was the usb port since ya know samsungs port sucks ass so j get a new charger and nothing. Let me remind you tthat this is a recent problem. Any body know a fix to this?

Test your charger. Try usb charge from pc. With a different cable to be sure something is not crossed inside.

The battery should not drain like that period not even cm is that bad
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA Premium App
My point is nothing to do with rom or phone but rather the charger or cable my be damage and causing short that drains the battery. Hence the suggestion to try other cables and charge methods to eliminate the possibility of this being the culprit.

Bought a new charger before I posted. Still draining!

Does it also fail to charge if the phone is turned off? If it charges while off then perhaps its a software issue after all. If not then the charge/usb port might be bad. How are you charging the battery between posting?

It shows its charging. But it'll go from like 11% to 0% in like 10 mins. And yea it charges with the screen off.
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA App
Have you tried to backup and re-flash your phone? Have you tried a battery calibration by wiping the battery stats? My advice *having never encountered that issue* would be to save all your data, make a list of the apps you use regularly and re-flash the phone then manually re-download each app and do not restore anything. if all goes well and it charges like normal then your set and can if you wish restore your old data and/or apps 1 per day till you notice the problem, return if it does.
I did just that. Reflashed a new rom and less drain but its definatly.
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA App
My next advice would be to try stock 2.2 for a day or so and see if it has issues. then if its ok try a new stable version of cm7 or miui * different build than previously used* and see if the problem returns.

Ive been thinking of cm7 but the battery life is driving me away. I was able to charge it till like 40% then i unplugged it by accident and I plugged it back in and BOOM battery drain. Its at 0% and will not rise.

If the phone gets hotter than 120° then it wil stop charging and actually dicharge. Make sure your not overcloking or ajything.
My advice on which rom if your not set would be to use trigger. I moved to trigger a long time ago after one of my bionix flashes didnt work quite right and have not looked back yet. I am currently on project v with trigger theme which is a little more like stock but with tweaks than a fully custom rom.
Ok so I got it to charge too 100% overnight and I unplugged it and it went down too 37% instantly. -__- just started working today and this isn't cool. I also left it by a fan so it wasn't hot at all.

In that case I would be sure to flash back to stock clean and then go to a different rom, I suggest Trigger 3.2 very stable in my experience, and charge to 100% and do a battery calibration. Trigger comes with an app to calibrate the battery and be sure its fully charged.

You need that kernel cleaning script. I don't know if I'm allow to post the file here, and I'm bot sure what post it is again. I can tell you the file name is

FYI, the next version of glitch is possibly going to have a modified recovery that will have options to clear voltage settings and things to save us from problems like this

V12 is out and does have the new recovery...
Some have been having issues with lag using the default deadline scheduler. CFQ has been great for me, I just change it on a reboot for the time being, have not gotten around to using the script that will allow the change to stock but it's out there...
Question:
Does Glitch kill the battery? I lowered VC to the minimum. When I first rooted and used the other kernel, I got excellent battery life. Now, TERRIBLE.
I did flash Glitch V12.
