Is it just me or is the battery life from the the latest ruu(2.11.605.0) amazing? I'm at 16.5 hours with out a recharge and I still have 40% battery to go! I'm not sure if I just didn't install some random app that drains my battery like crazy or what but as far as I know all my settings are consistant with my normal setup. Its also worth noting that this is the second day with mega battery as the same thing happened yesterday but I shrugged it off as a fluke.
Please don't flame this thread, as I'm only posting this to see if others have had the same success. My guess is that HTC finally fixed what ever was draining the battery like a brick.
My setup
Latest Stock rooted ruu
3 hour weather sync
4 hour Facebook and twitter sync
2 Google accounts full sync on(ie. Docs, reader, gmail, cal, music, etc. One is business and the other is personal)
Once a day rss feeds
Wifi turned all day connected for probably 60% of the day.
My phone is mostly used for data and text messaging since I only talked for about 15 minutes today.

You have no idea what kind of work has gone into making this phone possible, much less work right. I have no doubt there were lots of bugs to work out. I'm waiting for some good ROMs to come out of the RUU. I just can't STAND stock setups.

I have also noted better battery life with the leaked 2.11 release. Don't have any specific numbers or timesframes because I do plug it in while on the road while using navigation. I am very happy with my TBolt right now!
Sent from my ADR6400L using Tapatalk
I installed the 2.11 update this morning. After getting things configured I jumped in the car to run some errands and noticed I did NOT have landscape mode after exiting the dock app. This never happened to me on MR2. After the first errand I rebooted the phone hoping it would fix it but no dice!
Anyone else not getting landscape mode on the homescreens (outside of the dock app) when in the car dock? Hoping it's just me.
What's this "Display" thing that is using all my battery and how do I get rid of it?

CL3ANTH3ORY 1.2X is based off of 2.11, and from what I've heard, Revolutionary will still work. If you upgrade and have S-OFF, just flash CWM and then SU.
While we're at it, why stay rooted stock? Seems the OTA will be out shortly and that will cause all sorts of problems-- or at least be an annoyance
Thanks. I may give Revolutionary a try this afternoon.
so guys do you honestly see a increase in battery life with the new base...or was it just in the beginning ?

My battery life is very consistent and great with 211 base.. The best battery life i've ever seen using a stock HTC kernel. Can't wait for custom kernels to start rolling out for even more battery life.

It's well known I like to be a battery whore, my previous record was a little over 48 hours on a full charge with my Infuse. Today I beat my old record by about....20 hrs!
All notifications off except Gmail. 3g data turned off for about 80% of the time. Wifi on but set to turn off when phone sleeps. I did use the phone, text, talk, surf, etc. Probably would be considered light usage though.

I never use notifications, never will. This is my normal usage pattern. As I said in the OP, I do use the phone.
Get rooted and remove blot wear
Best way in some sense to get great battery life is get rooted, use Excellent Roms that removes all bloatware and find any apps that are continually running in background and remove them. (Tip) Get titanium backup and backup your apps then remove them but if you need later then reinstall them for future use. Just a few things to mention, so much more to add to save battery. I suggest you just use your phone and try and save in other ways that will extend you daily use.
How much screen on time? That's generally the best measure of battery life, because if your screen isn't on, you're not really using your phone. And a percent usage tells nothing.
My infuse is currently going on 12 days, 14 hours, 16 minutes, 7 seconds since last unplugged with 1 hour 28 minutes of screen on time. That being said, it's because I use it purely as a backup alarm clock without a sim card now that I have my Note, haha. And no, I'm not going to go to the hassle of rooting, downloading a screenshot app, then waiting another 12-14 days to prove it. Just goes to show that battery life doesn't mean much without usage.

I know this is one of those things that everyone seems to complain about, but there is definitely something going on here. I have Seidios 3200 MAH extended battery for my ROOTED bolt, yet my friend running the same ROM as me is getting almost double the battery life with a stock battery. I know the first thing to check is if any apps are killing my battery, which I have checked through thoroughly with no luck. I have tried uninstalling these apps with no luck on better battery life. If it helps I'll post the apps I have
- Beautiful Widgets
- Brilliant Quotes Free
- Days left widget
- Draw Something Free
- Engadget
- Facebook
- iHeart Radio
- Instagram
- Twitter
- Yahoo Mail
- Ringdroid
- Root Explorer
- WeatherBug
- XDA
- Zedge
This of course doesnt include the stock apps on the ROM.
Currently running the Plan 9 ROM, if anybody has any tips for getting the battery up to par I would be very grateful!
EDIT: Forgot to mention how long my battery is lasting me. I'm getting about 8 hours before she is sucked dry

Actually it's called "Plan .9" Its only been out for a few days and it's a very very minimal sense ROM. It's missing alot of the sense features as to make the battery better, some people are getting up to 3 days while on it. And the developer is very responsive so far with adding sense widgets and squashing bugs. here is the link...

Yea the Chinese are getting into making bogus crap and selling it in bulk to people on eBay and other places. My stepdad bought a bunch of bnib usb flash drives on eBay claiming to be 200gb and none of them worked. They were some of the best fakes I have ever seen. They were in packing identical to the actual product.

I bought my battery directly from Seidio, don't think its a Chinese scam. But Something is definitely eating my battery, although the battery usage is showing my display as the main culprit.

You're showing 5 hours and you are only at 56%. That would mean you have around 5 more hours. It looks like you made some serious phone calls which would eat up a lot of battery too. I don't know if you use auto brightness but it can help if you disable it and set it at the lowest possible setting you can stand. Another thing you might look into is the Facebook app. It was causing a wake lock on my phone so I removed it and that helped me a lot.

If its a sense rom, try imo 5.2 kernel for sense. Use setcpu for a screen off profile of 245/386. If its desensed alot, you can probably get away with underclocking it to 768. Brightness is huge batt hog, set as low as possible. I have as few things syncing as possible also. Interesting looking rom, i will try it out with my stock battery and let you know.

Ok, its loaded. Fastest booting rom ive had. I did try ziggys 11:05 kernel first, did not overclock, but did set screen off profile. This thing flys, and i havent played much with it yet. Ill let u know more tomorrow.

the best battery life ive ever gotten was from the full blown MR4 rom with the stock MR4 kernel and the MR4 radio
people say that the MR4 Kernel slows the bandwidth down somehow and maybe it does but its awesome on battery life
Thats the thing, I only spent about 15 minutes total throughout the day on the phone so it seems like its eating much more battery than usual. Maybe I'll try a new kernel and see how that pans out.

I'd try to turn off widgets, but also turn off all background running apps.
Seal is a good program to keep apps from turning on imo. I use it to limit usage - on most Roms I get almost 30 hrs of battery life. (Extended battery).
Good trick - overnight I use Airplane Mode and my battery drops at most 5% for 10 hrs.
I just got the Samsung Galaxy s3 the other day and I am impressed. I was coming from an iPhone 4. Only thing I don't like is the battery life. So far I've flashed synergy 1.7, beans build 8, and Scotts cleanrom. Synergy seems to be the best on battery life, but I just want to know what others think. Also, I am running IMO lean kernel .01 on all of them at stock speeds. Not over clocked. Just wanting opinions.
Try synergy 1.3, best rom with excellent battery life

There really is no best rom, it's all about user preference and exactly what you do with your phone. Try them each out for a week to weigh the pros/cons (or in your case scope out the battery life), then go with the one that you like best.

Thanks for the info but I've done that. They all seem the same. I think my real concern is the kernel. I like Scotts cleanrom but I wanna know which kernel is recommended for battery and performance
Sent from my SCH-I535 using xda app-developers app
All the ROMs do a pretty good job. If battery life is your #1 concern and nothing else matters:
1. keep screen brightness on minimum. Screen filter can reduce brightness even more.
2. If you use wifi, set it to sleep unless charging.
3. Don't use 4g. Use 3g only.
4. Disable syncing or data entirely and only manually sync when you need to. (Something like JuiceDefender can automate this)
5. Disable google backup.
6. Disable GPS and verizon/google location services.
7. Disable bluetooth.
8. Check and eliminate all wakelocks using betterbattery stats.
9. Turn off all haptic feedback.
10. Freeze all Samsung and Verizon related services using titanium Backup.
11. Maybe a mild underclock on your kernel.
At this point, you will get great battery on your dumbphone with a giant screen
Haha thanks man. Yeah I'm just stupud about battery. I pay attention to it too much. I'll do all that. Stupid giant screen indeed

I was having horrific battery on 1.7 with IMO's 0.1 beta. I completely wiped and reinstalled 1.7 on stock kernel, let my battery completely die and charged it up last night. Today I am at 90% after 3.5 hours unplugged listening to pod casts the whole time and texting and reddit app. Yesterday I was at 78% doing much less and unplugged for less time. I think when updating to new ROMs its important to do a full wipe and make sure if you use TiBu don't restore any system data. I don't have anything frozen as well
I'm getting almost 24 hours with about 2 hours of screen time, so much better coming from a Galaxy Nexus

In my opinion bars from right chart are not corresponding to % used on a left side.
For example Screen On reflects that it was On almost all the time but Screen % is only 27.
Plus not sure why do you have black gap in a middle of a graph.
I tried cleanRom and my battery life is normal again. The black gap is hotboot under the restart menu

I am on v1.7 and the thing that helped me get more battery life out of this version of the ROM was to turn off Google NOW. I did this by hitting the mic in the google search bar, go into Setting and turn off google now. Incidentally the voice search functionality still works; when I try something like "What year was Albert Einstein born?", the robotic voice gives me the right answer. lol. Right now I don't have a need for the cards.
I loved Synergy, but the battery ran out much quicker than I would want it to. CleanROM was the best ICS rom for me, battery wise. I'm currently on the official CM10 nightlies and I get decent battery out of it as well.
it's because of spywares exist in custom kernel wich run background all time and use data without permission
If you use your phone on nonstop it drains quickly. I would live to tweak my phone to try to get over 5 hours screen on time. 3.5 hours and higher is good from my experience.

Dude go to some research. You have no idea what you are talking about. The Kernals are stripped down for performance and exclude the "spywares" go use your internets to research before you start making these claims.
Post all issues with the ICS leak here. If someone else has posted that issue, do not post it. Please search before you post.
This will help me see what i need to try to fix with my leak-based ROM and maybe good for other devs too.
-------------------------
My list
Mirror image is off (as seen here http://phota.me/rWii
Settings says "Develop option" rather than "Developer options" I fixed this in my rom by editing /settings/res/values/strings.xml either line 2982 or 308 i cant remember. (See http://phota.me/gJkC ---> http://phota.me/aak5)

Thanks!

my battery seems to not last as long but it is not terrible. I am having a hard time getting any tethering app to work.

Google syncs all your contacts with Gmail, so it will restore them automatically.
WiFi figured out downloaded different tether app put on wlan 1. Battery life sucks big-time....facebook app keeps closing.

No it doesnt. Does most, but not all. Ive tried adding the syncing to back up. When i reload a rom, they are gone. Vzw backup gets them all.

I had all around crap luck with mine. I only had it 3 days and I couldn't take it. On the internet, it would hang up, crash, not zoom and even display weird colour. Tether would not work. Facebook was so so. The camera sucked, it would wig out and act like I was looking through acid goggles. Should I continue?

Really? I have yet to see anyone on the leak get their CPU to actually go to sleep. Uptimes and real uptimes are always identical. The CPU doesn't sleep......ever. I have an extended battery and have a setCPU profile to WAY underclock it when the screen times out, but the CPU never truly goes to sleep. I am managing, but it is going through my battery life faster than normal (even in airplane mode it drains).
