One day i'll get to the 10 posts so I can post in the right area...
So far only things for me are
Wiped cache, dalvic and data. Came up from 1.6.3
FC on PVMTPSerrviceStart each reboot and usually once or twice after that.
Other non suprises Kernel Manager not seeing device as rooted.
Pretty snappy and everything else works.
I've had a great experience with BAMF 2.0 so far. I came from Vanilla Bean 1.2.1, nand back-up, wiped fully, flashed BAMF 2.0 Beta 2, adb reboot bootloader, flashed radios, and had zero problems. This morning I flashed 2.0 Beta 3 over Beta 2 after wiping cache and dalvik (not data), and I had one reboot almost immediately. But after that reboot, everything is running smooth. I had been gradually moving away from Sense with the froyo roms, but I like the new Sense 3.0 stuff. Doesn't really feel like beta for me. Kudos to team BAMF for an awesome ROM!
Any issues charging the battery? Mine is taking forever, charging about 10% an hour.
I was down to around 88% about 45 mins ago and plugged in. Just checked and I'm at 95%.
Mine seems to be about the same as always.
What Kernal are you using? Stock or Imo's.
I'm using the one that came with the update, I believe it's Imo's. Has to be because the camera and everything works.
That's weird...Everything else is working...I know other people have said they were having the same problem, but I can't seem to find a solution and I spent all day setting this thing up and don't really want to flash again.
I was noticing a slow charge time also. I just recalibrated my battery so we will see what happens now.
Ya, I've not had any issues (knock on wood).
Anyways, I saw there was an .04 release, so I'm downloading it. My battery is down to 80%, it's 4:20 my time.
I'll be leaving where I'm at at around 5 (so about 40 mins).
I'll post what my battery is at when I unplug it (I'm also doing the .04 download over 3G as well).
Update: 4:45 now and my battery is now at 94%.
Final update: 4:55 and my battery is at 98%.
All Fixed in 2.04
Now to get that exchange policy removed from here too
There was some bug fixes in the .04 version that some where experiencing.

Not that I have seen.. Handcent knows the right time though so if you delete mms.apk from system/apps using root explorer then reboot your phone and install Handcent sms your messaging will show the right time again.. only fix I've found so far

I had this same issue.. I flashed the test7 kernel suggested in Adrynalyne's post on BAMF 2.0-beta 4.01.
Once I did that, the charge time is much faster now on the phone.

I usually don't flash a new version of cm7 until 8 to 10 nightlies pass. I'm on 51 now so ill prob wait til low 60's to flash again. How often do you flash or upgrade?
ITS ALL WONKY!!!
I usually look at the changelog to see if any big updates have been made and then look in the nightly thread to see if people are having problems. If not, I'll flash.
You're missing out. 56 is a rock!
I flash every 2 to 3 nightlys unless changelog shows they have change something dramatically. On 54 right now

yup I do the same minus the nandroid backups... I live on the edge
( I do have them but they are like a week or two old)
I upgrade once a week..
everyday unless there wasn't really anything changed. remember all you have to do is flash an old version no need to do a nano since when you flash the old version it over writes what had changed. I also do a titanium backup before each flash since if i need to wipe that puts me back to where i was at anyway.
I just have my stock nandroid backup in case I ever want to go back

I upgrade daily in the morning.
#55 and #56 have lots of new fixes.
Battery Driver, Dual-Radio bandwidth (doubles bandwidth), Builtin Notification Backlights, etc.
I don't see much difference between #55 and #56 but I'm sure there are some tweaks. So grab the latest and go. Anyone using CM7 should upgrade to #55 at least.
Nightly, and literally nightly.
Haven't run into crashes since well, i reboot every darn day.
While charging overnight it does freeze (known issue seen other have same issue).
That darn battery.
I took a break from CM7 just to try Evil's ROM. Also other reason I stopped was the brightness issue. 55+ the issue went away.

The brightness was fixed on earlier roms but came back, then went away, and came back. Brightness bug came back around #53 and fixed on #55.
Mine doesn't freeze, reboot, or lockup while charging over night... on any CM build.
I'll be honest I'm rooting for CM7 and will be my final ROM when it reaches stable/RC version. The crashes/reboots are gone and I don't keep the uptime past 20+ hours because I keep flashing to the latest ROM.
Battery freeze is disappointing, but I blame it on the hardware/LG. Its not perfect but its getting there. Gingerbread update will fix this. It better
I usually look at the channel log to see what has changed, but every 2-3 days. If I am having good luck with the current build I will stick with it, if it is giving me issues, I will update on the next build. I was on 54 for 2 days (with the same battery charge) and updated to 56 yesterday. After only using 20% of my battery after 12 hours of mild use and a lack of any cool/important updates, I will stick with this build for another day or 2.
You really should update. 54 fixed a LOT of problems: the battery meter now gives accurate readings and data speeds are doubled.
Any time there is fresh Gigglebread;-)

I know. I wanna be done with this backloght crap but I'm gonna wait until I need to reboot because I wannna see howblong of an uptime I can have. I'm just about at 105 hours ans no reboots so far.

I flash almost every day. I keep nandroid backups on my SD, my desktop and my dropbox. I guess I'm paranoid.
Hello to all you great people! I am not new to this site but I havent posted much or at all. This site is increadible and has taught me a ton about what a droid can do once you know how to use it. Thanks everyone! Anyway I have a question that I would of posted in the CM7 dev thread but I dont have permission since I havent posted much. Is anyone having bat drain issues with the newest build (RC1.1 MR2) using the GB radio 2.5? I have lost over 10% bat life in 25 mins while in airplane mode, no data including wifi and the screen was only on for maybe 2 or 3 mins. It may be a problem on my end but I just wanted to see if anyone else is having an issue with this. Oh and thanks to all you devs for doing all the hard work and dealing with angry wifes or girlfriends! We all appreciate it!

On mr2 it did feel like my battery was draining faster than normal.. with the stock kernel at least. Glad I'm not the only one try switching kernels
Sent from my Incredible using XDA Premium App
I actually had this problem too with the stock kernel, and once I overclocked with the Dream kernel it actually stopped draining my battery, strange.
I did try using Imoseyon's CM7 leankernel but had the same effect. Ill try the dream kernel and report back. Thank guys!!
I'm on my first day with this build of CM7, with MR2.5 and noticed my battery has drained way faster than it did with gingeritis.
Did you try wiping battery stats?
Sent from my ThunderBolt using XDA Premium App
Is there an official name for this kernel, or someplace to get it? I tried a quick Google search for "htc thunderbolt dream kernel", and it didn't bring up anything definite.
I noticed the battery drain too. CM7 7.1.0 RC1 with the MR2.5 radio. It seems to be "cell standby" that's using the highest percentage of the battery. I have it set to CDMA / EvDo auto.
What programs do you have running? Are you overclocked? I an running mr2.5 cm7.1 rc1.1 and still have 22% on 18 hours unplugged. 3 hour screen on, lots of texting, xda browsing, market updates, and an hour of plans vs zombies. On stock kernel, no overclocking. Using interactive governor.

I do have things set to run in the background, but they don't even register a high enough percentage in the battery usage to show there. I was not having battery issues with the 7.0.1 RC 6 on MR1 (the last build).
I've tried two of the utkanos kernels (not the OC one), and the dream kernel. On both of the utkanos kernels, I had no data. I tried rebooting several times, switching data on and off, and changing the network mode. No luck. The dream kernel took several minutes, but data finally came on. I haven't used it long enough to comment on any battery life differences between stock CM7 and this.
Running BAMF getting 1 1/2 on battery easy on 2.5
I am currently running the 2.5 on my BAMF sense 3 2.3.2 dream kernal. My battery is lasting very nicely currently. See the post below I have had better times the best was 1 day and 19 hours.

Ok so here's the news on my end. With the dream kernel things seem much better! However I was watching my ma usage and it went from 48ma to 240ma something after turning on wifi. Then after turning wifi off it never dropped. I rebooted and things went back to a cool 48ma. I'm guessing my original problem was with the stock kernel. But now that I'm on the new one the phone wont power down the wifi or something and made me burn thru my bat till I rebooted. Any ideas gents? Reboot did fix but that usually kills a good 4 to 10% of my bat everytime. I have next to nothing running in the background too.
Sent from my ThunderBolt using XDA App
Guess I should add that now after reboot I'm around 100 ma usage and steady with wifi on. Maybe a reboot once a day might do the trick till CM is finalized. Was thinking bout trying the mr2 radio stead of 2.5. Anyone know if there's a difference or advantage to either?

I was having trouble until i started using the KangBang kernel, that one seems to be the best for me
I have had this problem for a couple of months not and just got sick of it. My battery percentage is stuck at 100%. I have tried everything; reflashing, clearing battery stats, using battery calibration tools, completely draining (a few times) and fully charging and clearing bat stats again to no avail. I can see in multiple places that the battery voltages levels are dropping but having no effect on the percentage.
My phone info:
G2x flashed with Cyanogenmod 7 11 01 2011 nightly (I can not up date for a few weeks as I am on a ship), Faux123-v0.4.7r.
Anybody experience the before or have a idea of a fix?
could be a few things...
1) have you tried any other rom/kernel combo's and does it still happen?
2) you say you are using faux123's kernel, if it is the DS version of it the battery driver percentage readings are a bit strange on that version. you could just be getting a VERY extreme case of that, try the CM version if you haven't already. (should be in the same thread as the DS version)
3) if you want to give it a shot, you could try using This. its a batch file that will completely and 100% wipe your phone (and the internal SD card) clean, its fixed some strange issues for people, and it might just help you too.
3) if none of the above work, try picking up a cheap battery on ebay/amazon for the phone, from what i hear you can get one in the $10-$25 range pretty easily. it could be that something in the battery itself is messed up thats causing it too.

1. This only started happening without correcting itself this past ROM. I am currently out to sea and can not download a new one. I have a few previous ROMS on my computer that I can try.
2. I am using the more stable CM version of the kernel.
3. I would like to avoid a complete wipe at the moment as I will have no viable way to reload all of my stuff. I have done a NAND backup just though just in case.
4. Buying a battery would take weeks to get here. Will consider this if steps above don't work.
Thank you very much, going to go flash a different ROM right now!

yeah, if you can swing it, a full wipe is most likely going to help. otherwise either just try to live with it, or try dirty-flashing a new rom.
Ok, I tried the dirty-flash to no joy. Just broke down, backed everything up with Titanium Backup and did the complete wipe and install. Battery is back to normal. I would still really like to know what caused the battery not to register (before I did all of this, messed with the Cyanogenmod settings for status bar. Went back to just the icon of the battery and it showed a question mark with no level).

You most likely f'ed up the system ui because of a bug in the status bar mods or a theme. Honestly most of the time these things are fixable, but the fix is a helluva lot more complicated and time consuming than just wiping.
I'm glad you got it worked out though.

I would either flash a different kernel, flash a different rom or wipe EVERYTHING and start over.
its because you probably got a leak of one of the new nuclear batteries, so i think you can use it for like 5000 years or so, but with juice defender you might be able to get like 7500 out of it!...
just be sure not to under volt it too much! or els the fission becomes unstable...

hi.
Do you have fixed this problem ?
Hi,
Has anyone else had problems with the battery draining with the new 4.0.4 ? My GF Nexus S was still on 2.3.6 so I got the factory version of 4.0.4 and installed it. I obviously wiped the data/cache/etc. Also I rooted it with the latest superuser.
I'm running the latest nighly of CM9 and everything is perfect, so I thought it was time to give her the sweetness of ICS.
So with all that useless information, has anyone found a fix for the battery drain in 4.0.4?
Thank you,
WarpedMonkeys
Since I installed 4.0.4 my battery lasts up to 20 hours, no problem at all.
I'd suggest manual full wipe with fresh 4.0.3 stock rom and then manual ota update to 4.0.4.
I'm also using matr1x kernel, it's just awesome
Hope it helps

Stock rom is ok, but updating with ota from 2.3.6 to 4.0.4 may lead to bad battery behaviour. Someone says that battery stats wipe could lead to better battery performances, but I think fresh install could do the trick

Check your battery usage, if Android OS is using more than 8-9% after some regular usage, then that's the cause.

A full battery cycle could do the trick. Don't let it die, anyway, because it can cause battery wear... Just take it to 10% and recharge it nighttime... You may also wipe battery data before, if you wish...

Heavy battery drain ??? i don't have any issues with it, infact i have not touched my phone for 1 day 6 hours and 25 minutes and my battery dropped from 95% to 82%. My phone was fully charged (didn't go higher then 95%). I am very impressed by the results.
I changed 2 settings:
1. Automatic screen brightness.
2. Turn screen off after 30 seconds.

Hello,
my Nexus S was updated automatically to version 4.0.4. I will tell you. My problem is with data. Now I can not open any WWW page in default viewer,Opera sometimes opens some pages but quite rare. I can not get any email in K9 Mail. Update of Google maps took several hours, unfinished, eaten all my battery! Sometimes I am without signal or with bad signal.
It is for sure problem with 4.0.4 because I have unlimited data. So, no FUP in this case.
I was satisfied with 2.3.6. How can I do downgrade without rooting etc. my phone ?

Try find out what is hogging your battery/cpu. Download os monitor.
Or just flash a new rom to see if that helps. make a backup first
I've had this problem once before and it was simply as easy as switching my kernel. You can see here.
Now I've tried GR to CM9 and then to Codename Android Build 4 still had the problem changed Kernels.. Then decided to GR to CM9 and try Beam, and yet again still had Android OS draining the battery. I then flashed the Hefe kernel and NO change.. I've looked around on forums and remember seeing someone mention strange battery stats I can't find it at the moment, but if you look at my stats below you can see that not only is the Android OS draining the battery the graph shows huge drop off points. What exactly are those? Thanks in advance for any help!

@getochkn
Yeah, but you were sleeping or doing nothing, phone was idle. LOL Seriously, how is that possible? I have tried many ROMs, today I had a big issue on CM9, battery dropped from 60's% to 1% when phone got stuck and shut down. I had an emergency and needed my phone to call and couldn't. I got very pissed off and now I'm on GB because that battery drain issue has been all over ICS. I have tried calibrating, GR's, I use less apps... nothing! Phone lasted like 4-6 hours with average use. I needed to charge it like 3 times per day. It made my mobile phone, not so mobile.
Not complaining. Just a real issue. I know there are bugs and that development is ongoing. I love ICS but just can't afford to loss so much battery again in another emergency case scenario.
I would be happy to get 12 hours of use. I remember with Redux 1.2 (GB) I got 18-25 hours depending on use. Share some of your usage. I may need to buy a new battery.

I got very pissed off and now I'm on GB because that battery drain issue has been all over ICS. I have tried calibrating, GR's, I use less apps... nothing! Phone lasted like 4-6 hours with average use. I needed to charge it like 3 times per day. It made my mobile phone, not so mobile.
Not complaining. Just a real issue. I know there are bugs and that development is ongoing. I love ICS but just can't afford to loss so much battery again in another emergency case scenario.
I would be happy to get 12 hours of use. I remember with Redux 1.2 (GB) I got 18-25 hours depending on use. Share some of your usage. I may need to buy a new battery.

Music for about an hour, wifi on most of the time, airdroid'ed into it, messing around with settings, took about a dozen pics.
