Thats not real, that is photo shopped
Yes,I'd say that is very good. I got 29 hours with 16% remaining the other day, but I didn't have the display on 70+% of the time.

Not chopped at all....

General Knowledge-Trigger 2.9.1

It is the best rom ever!!! It runs sooooooo smooth and With the Metamorph addons That birgertime gives you it makes it that much more amazing! I use Overstock 2.2 and battery life is awesome!!!! I suggest if you are a noob like me, Try other roms then try this one because you'll appreciate it even MORE!!!!!

Yes it is!

Thanks for your opinion?

How long do you guys get on battery life with trigger? I'm on bi-winning with overstock 2.1 and get pretty decent battery life

Wow it's already out? I'm still on 2.8.0, but I've been getting pretty good battery life. I noticed that turning wifi on overnight helped me a great bit and also since I really don't use my phone at work I leave it on edge instead of 3g.

Hehe I like to update about every month. I do appreciate the constant updates though. It's nice to know you're on top of it, the stock dialer looked out of place, but now I see that's changed so I'm happy

This is the SuperD of the G1, for those who understand that.

Flash the bali 1.8.8 over biwinning. It has great battery life. I am also using biwinning v3.

I second this. Bi-Winning or ZenDroid with Bali 1.8.8UV kernel is the tops...

Don't you gotta recalibrate battery after flashing new Kernal?

No, but if he's complaining about how long it takes to charge, he DOES need to make sure he charges it all night. If he's charging his phone to "90"% or "95"%, without charging it to 100%, then he's screwing up his battery stats and may want to recalibrate due to that. His battery is probably making it seem like he's in worse shape (battery-wise) than he really is, because the battery is possibly underreporting how much time it really has left.

Yes recalibrate your battery.

Word of advice. Turn off your data if all your gonna do is play music, text, or call.

dont set your brightness too high or on auto, and i reccomend the trigger roms they are stable and have good battery life

Thanks everyone ill look into everything tomorrow morning

Post your ICS battery life

I'm running kwiboo v3 with on screen buttons tweak and franciscofranco kernel with -25 all voltages. So far this is the best battery I have had out if any phone.
Edit: for some reason I cant post pics but after 10 hours I'm at 78% left

Setup's in my signature; best battery life I've seen on an Android phone. Easily gets me through the day and then some with moderate use.
I would post battery stats (since it's easy to do screenies now) but I just took it off the charger after messing with NS Tools and it wouldn't be a good representation of my battery life.

Wow...that puts my battery life into perspective. It sucks!
Seriously, I am not getting battery life like that. With moderate usage after ten hours I would say I am in the low 60's battery-wise.

Best kernel for Epic 4G ICS?

Any idea? Stability + good battery?
I was using Legendary before, awesome battery life while at 1400Mhz all the time. It was amazing.
Anyone know which kernel I should use now?

YMMV but this was my battery today with the newest samurai kernel tanto

This being covered time and time again in many different posts over many different threads almost warrants no answer but ill give you one and here it is
try them all flash one per day till you find one that works for you the way you like it everyone uses their phone differently so no matter what you will get different results than i do or the next person that post on this

It's really up to you, try them out and see what you like the best. I've tried all 3 kernels currently out right now and they all work pretty good. The two I usually stick with are shadow kernel and the samurai kernel. Shadow kernel is nice and makes everything feel real snappy. You can overclock to 1400 mHz and the battery life for me is good. The newest shadow, tanto, overclocks to 1500 mHz and works with voodoo control. Haven't gotten the chance to really test battery since it just came out but so far it runs pretty good. Just test both of them out, you can always flash over another kernel.

Bad question....like what's the best ROM. Every phone and every user is different. You have to try them out to see what works best for you.

I am pretty much a noob here and know better than to ask any "what's the best....." question. I have read it dozens of times that your phone and your use is different. Might as well ask us how you should dress too.

Stock.

Also close to stock kernels like aprosamurai's. He likes to keep his stockish with a few tweaks and some new fixes. Just my opinion of what works best on my phone. Others like earthbound's are too tweaked for me but his is really fast and bleeding edge. Bbelos's are also good.

I'm using shadow now and have used apro's too and they both worked great. You need to experiment with them, and you're going to have to tweak to get better battery life. I had several trying to constantly run and none of them were things I use a lot so they had to go. If I wanted super battery life I would have bought a flip phone and not a micromini laptop, and I wouldn't have such a joyful device to tinker with.

Stock is always going to be the best for wanting nothing but the simplicity.
Put it like this when i buy a car, i put bigger tires on my car for grip, and better handling. But i know i will loose some gas mileage but not alot.
I'll put a turbo and some internals into my engine to gain in power but will loose gas.
But if we can put bigger tires and a bigger turbo but still have the same gas results as stock, Then why not do it?
We all benefit in one area and thats why custom kernels are there for those who want options that stock doesn't provide.
Stock= Base Model
Custom = Fully Loaded
Simple as that. So everyone should try different kernels and then reply not saying oh this is the best. But say IMO i prefer this over that simply because of these reasons. Everyone will want a specific kernel because one may like different things about the different kernels

If you want to keep close to stock: aprosamurai's.
If you want to live on the bleeding edge: earthbound's
I prefer stock, though I may give earthbound's another try now that he made some updates
