So my friend who bought a captivate at the same time as mine (about 8 months ago) has been using stock rom (JF6) for a while. He basically just makes 10-15 mins call a day, checks weather and livescore sometimes, no background data, and he told me that he got at least 4 days!!! Right after he upgrade to the official Froyo, his battery life drops down, and he said not even lasts a day! I helped him install the Serendipity 6.3, told him to run for several days and recalibrate the battery. He reported back to me that with the same manner of using his phone, set the screen brightness to the lowest, his phone last from 6:00pm to 12:00pm the next day (about 18 hours). I then helped him to come back to JF6 yesterday afternoon and up to noon today, he said the battery doesn't change (means it drops less than 20%).
So does it means that in term of battery life, the JF6 gives us the best? What in Froyo makes it that bad in battery life? I might want to go back to JF6 to test. For now I'm using Phoenix Ultimate and got like 12 hours. Of course I use a lot of google voice, email syncs etc ...
I love Phoenix Ultimate. I made the switch to Phoenix Unleashed though. Much quicker. Man that is a great rom.

I agree with this statement
Hmm... I haven't really noticed a huge difference going from ROM to ROM. But I do know that on Andromeda3 in the 17 hours and 17 minutes since I unplugged my phone last night I've used 22% of my battery; this is with WiFi and the GPS enabled.

same here, I noticed that, I use completely stock eclair and official froyo rom, my cappy never tried to flash any rom, so I can only compare the stock eclair and official froyo's battery performance.
my eclair last for only about 18 to 22hrs, I'm a heavy user, after the froyo update, my battery can last up to max of 12hrs, that sucks!

I am on a custom ROM, and with 2-3 hours calls and 1-2 hour display with 3 accounts pushing in mails, I easily get past 48 hours.
i never found that to be the case. the battery life on eclair was fair but not great for me. i used the phone a bit heavier but found it to be similar to my iphone 3g or slightly less if it was being used most of the day. ok so i could get 4 days on the iphone but i really didn't use that phone much. the cappy even with light use wouldn't go more than 2, it used a bit more on standby than the iphone. every phone is different so i cant say that your friend doesn't get 4 days but in every day use i dont see froyo using much more battery on standby and probably uses less for me during use.
the best battery life on a rom i ever had was jk3 from the i9000m. it was perception something and was very light. the rom was also fast and feature packed. battery life was about 2.5 days on average. the next best was a tie between andromeda and the jh2 leak 2.1 with unhelpfuls kernel 1.4.1 and a lot of undervolting and the gpu underclocked for frequencies up to 600mhz and overclocked for 800-1200. that kernel ran great but was overshadowed by 2.2 with jit. i wish unhelpful would make a 2.2 version because his undervolt never suffered from charge death and the phone would tolerate much lower voltages. plus control over the gpu was a nice feature.
some of the 2.2 roms may eat a lot of power on standby but if the use is that light it should still get a day+ but i feel under use there isn't a difference i can detect consistently.
I don't like to get 4 days by just make phone call, because then why do you need a smart phone? I'm just wondering why that kind of thing happens? What in 2.2 eats battery that 2.1 doesn't? Ok, improvement in performance can shorten battery life, but should not be that whole difference (I mean from 4 days to 1 day)! That guy he even keeps all the crap wares from AT&T and doesn't have any task killer installed!

Really? I'm about the same usage as you and my Captivate cannot last longer than 18 hours...
i'm thinking about getting the HtC inspire 4g. hows the batt life if you turn off 3g, wifi, push mail, gps, and set brightness to 30%?
I don't turn anything off and have been getting a full day with 6+ hours of screen on time. Running gtg's ace Rom and capy's kingdom. Thoroughly impressed with the gingerbread Rom performance.

hi, newter.. thanks for replying. thats impressive. so i guess that if you turn off wifi, 3g, push mail, etc, i'm sure batt life would be 2 days with moderate use.
also, can you tell me how i can unlock this phone on tmobile?
Rooting gives sim unlock.
Just use the hack kit. It will sim unlock, root, and s-off for you.
I should note that my usage may not be typical as I use few minutes using it as an actual phone. Web, text, xda, music, some email, and a few games are what I use it for.
I was able to pull 3.5 days out of Cyanogen 7.0.2 with the LorDmod kernel and Pinky Undervolt scripts. I have K-9 set to check three mail accounts that get a fair amount of traffic with push notifications, leave it in HSUPA mode, and my brightness hasn't budged off "automatic".
I'm currently trying dilligaf's AOSP+CM hybrid with the Pinky Ultra Undervolt and have been getting some really good results so far. I'm currently at 93% after being on the battery for 12 hours.
EDIT:
Completely stock, the battery wasn't that bad but it would need to be plugged in to the charger at the end of the day, generally lasting around 15 hours.
what does unlocking the sim do??

Allow the phone to be used with another carrier.
i can go three days with three hours of screen time with TPGB-CM20110509, actually a prior version, but this one fixes an MMS problem, and current widget throws up similar numbers, so well see.
Using custom ROM packages greatly trim the fat (bloat) off and drastically increase efficiency equaling much better battery life...Rooting / flashing ROMs has been the greatest feature coming from jailbreaking iPhones...I'd never go back
Streaming, all day. I get about 6 hours .. else with internet and games and just instaling uninstalling and general playing around I get 10 plus hours.. I never use it as a phone.
with everything like described in the OP, ive gotten 24 hours out of the phone with phone calls here and there. if you turn off all that stuff, you can eek out 1-3% battery drain/hour. it's pretty good and almost always lasts me the whole day
Running stock out the box i had 12-14 hours of battery life. Loads of texting through out the day and playing a few games, on the web, gps here and there, and some phone calls. I have my brightness at 0% if not at 40% during the day with everything else off unless I need to switch it on for something.
With custom rom I get around the same battery life but with heavier usage. Texting all day long while playing games for a few hours, then theres navagation use, phone calls, emails and notifications from apps. So either way you should get good battery life.
Mine got better after I rooted and installed the Saga ROM.
Saga isn't being updated so I just installed Ace.

hi, numpangx, thanks for replying. lets say that i install gingerbread on it and turn off wifi, push notifications, gps, weather, play no games, and reduce brightnss to 30%. but make calls. do you think i would be able to get 2 days of batt life?

wow helushune thats excellent! 3.5 days on the htc inspire with that droid rom.. i should install that then. so with heavy use, calling for an 1.5 hours, playing a game, and nothing else, i'm sure you yourself would get 2 days batt life? am i right?
My stock Inspire goes from about 9 am to about 3 am with heavy use, I end up with 15% -/+ at the end of the day.

One of the biggest killers of the battery life is the massive screen and backlight. I haven't done any heavy usage testing as I'm seeing what kind of battery life I can get out of dilligaf's AOSP+CM hybrid rom with an undervolt script.
I did make a few phone calls and I think I played Rocket Bunnies/ran a few speed tests when I got the 3.5 days. There's also a pretty big dip around the 60% mark where I re-installed CM and flashed a new kernel as well. But I generally use my phone to respond to text messages and email and that'll kill the battery faster than spending the equivalent time making a phone call.
Is it just me or do i get better battery life on sense froyo roms then i do on aosp gingerbread roms. On aosp i lose anywhere from 7-10% battery per hour, standard use, and on sense i lose 3-7% per hour, standard use. I am on Bamf Remix 1.8.6 with the desense script, and the aosp roms i tried were cm7 and omfgb. I really wish i got good battery life on aosp, it is so much smoother and quicker, but I need my battery to last as ling as possible. Am i alone here or what?

You're going to get better battery life on Froyo over Gingerbread.
What are your setting though, I go all day with pretty good usage (browser/text/facebook/youtube/Music) and I'm always good to go.
I'm running CM7 stock kernel. Display at 40%, 4g disabled when not needed, Wifi disabled when not home and I can't really say I have any complaints.

I thought always thought that aosp GB was supposed to have better battery life.....
I had imoseyon lean kernel on battsaver and ondemandX, wifi off because I'm almost never home, 4g on, all the same settings I run on BAMF. Display at 25% usually unless the sun is blaring.
just curious did you wipe batt stats do a full drain and recharge and see what you got after that?
No, I'm guilty of not doing that. I guess I should try that shouldn't I?
I found the best battery life on Liquid ROM, which is GB.

Can't hurt. I wipe batt stats every time I flash a rom.

There is a simple solution. Get an extra or extended battery, and you won't have to worry about it.

Although that's an obvious solution. There's more he can try before he goes to spend the money for an extra battery. I honestly don't see a need for an extended battery and I play around on my phone all day. When I get in the car charge it. When Im at home on the pc charge it.
I definitely get better battery life on Froyo sense than aosp gb. I, personal, think I get the best battery life on a stock version. I'm currently running the rooted OTA and the OTA MR2 radio and am getting great battery life (4g off, don't have it in my area till the end of the month).
I wish CM7 got good battery life. I like it better than any ROM I've tried, but can't get over the battery drain. It's ok though, I like Sense a lot too.
But you know what they say: To each his own.
to each his own is right
But on the same platform (froyo vs gb) i just dont think you are going to get tremndous variations in battery life. There may be an outlier rom that uses it quickly by most of the roms are in the same ballpark. i think we are talking about squeaking out an extra 20-30 mins which is not nothing but 8+ hours of a battery charge i would be more inclined to go with whatever rom i like best. When GB is released for real, then we may see some improvements across the board.

I have to agree. CM7 has been way better than any other rom i've tried.
CM7 with Kang Bang does best on mine, but you can't compare sense froyo to aosp GB. That's too many different factors. That's a different framework, different kernel structure, different ROM. How do you know what the culprit is?
I'm running BAMF 1.8.6 as well on standard battery.
I just charge at night, take the phone to the car or motorcycle for commute and place on charger. When at work, I have another USB charger with micro USB cable. Charge when at desk. Reverse procedure for drive home.
Battery is great when only off the charger for ~4 hours per day. :-|
It seems that sense battery life is better. I've been on cm7 for a couple weeks now and my battery will be nearly dead by this time every day. So I'm getting 5 to 6 hourz max with cm7. I'm on gingertheory now with dream kernel and setcpu running a few profiles, battery life is at 70%. May have been using it a little less today but still that's a big difference.

Getting the 2750mah extended was the best investment you can make into this phone, hands down. If your phone goes naked, then the difference in thickness is not that bad. In fact I love the new added thickness. It keeps my camera lens off the surface when I put it down flat. Not to mention it adds a certain heftyness that just exudes quality.
Sadly though I got an unlucky battery cover which creeks if you squeeze just a smidge on the sides
Other than that, man is it great. I can go about 48 hours without charging on CM7.1. At the end of the 48 hours, my screen would have been on for roughly 5-6 hours. That means nearly 3 hours of screen on time a day. If you sleep for 8 hours a day, that leaves 16 hours of awake time. 3/16 means nearly 20% of my time awake was spent looking at my phone. Hardly minimum usage, and if its not considered heavy then I fear for future generations. Screw these kids today 12 years old with a smartphone lol. I didn't get my first cellphone till I was a senior in highschool (2004) and even then, it was a crumby flipphone just for the sake of making calls and in case I was in trouble.
Before i say anything, This thread is not to decide which rom is the best or the worst. I just want to gather a thread with people achieving the best battery life. + Respect for all devs
Back onto the topic before i get posts saying you'll get flamed , What guys are you mixed together to achieve best battery life? Im a really moderate user and am achieving 8 hours max. I have tried pretty much everything. I usually play 1-2 hours games, feed my facebook addiction in total for 1 hour, check xda for 15 minuets and check my time every 30 minuets on average. Some people achieve mad battery life, like 2 days with 40% left . Havent seen that since the golden i9000 days.
SO guys, Post the following
Radio
ROM (Neccesary, but wont determine the best rom in any way shape or form)
Kernel (Same about ROM)
Usage
and screenshot of battery use for proof.
Cheers guys and i am sure people are looking for good battery life other than me.
UPDATE: Ok, so I flashed android revolution HD and I was looking at the better battery life thread. It was in the desire HD forum soo... yea. Anyway, a normal drain for them is 3-8mA whilst the lowest drain I have got is 110mA. We have a dual core phone but shouldn't that only increase twice or 3x? Not 10x? That is weird. If you leave sense and move onto cm7 you get even a bigger drain. Right now this phone battery life is doomed until we get a bugless aosp rom.
I want to find this out too
Using latest Revolution and latest faux123 and battery dies 8 hours on with 3 hours active?!!
See my signature
Moderate user (IM's Texts, minimal phone calls and an hour of streaming di.fm)
I will post a screenshot of battery later because I am using my stock battery atm testing something.
Stock battery ~ 12 Hrs
Anker Battery ~ 32 - 36 hours (Worth the 10 bucks off ebay)

Been covered before, A LOT.
Due to personal circumstances, such as location, reception strength, network type, being inside/outside the building, different use of wifi, different perception of heavy/moderate/light use by an individual, it is not possible to come to an agreement what bundle is best for EVERYONE.
I know it doesn't help, but that's the truth.
This is a really good idea and I hope it takes off and does good. Just to inform the webstar1 some ROMs will get better our worse battery life depending on if it is a Sense ROM or a Non Sense ROM And it will depend on other factors too such as what services are left in to run in the background and things of that nature. Plus the kernel has a big roll in battery life so making note of them will be very important. The individual user will have a lot to do with battery life too. I say this not because of how much someone talks on the phone or uses their phone. But because using things like task managers regular, not using Bluetooth, not using GPS, and turning WiFi off when you are not in near a WiFi location will help conserve battery greatly too.
Now for my contributio. To the thread I am still using the stock ROM for my daily driver. The battery life on it is like speratic as hell. When I first got my Sensation the battery life was fairly good, but now it can last up to 6 or 7 hours with normal to heavy usage. Or it can only last as short as 3 hours with normal to heavy usage. The worst I have had so far was one day I took it off charge at full charge and all I did was make a 5 minute phone call and stay on XDA for like 30 minutes and 2 hours and 40 minutes later my battery was on 16%. I don't have any screen shots to post but I will try to take some to add here later

I disagree with you. Finding out how people achieve those 2 days will gove us not the same but similar results. So yes, it can potentially be the best for EVERYONE since some people only get 3 to 4 hours with moderate use. And i havent seen a single thread which focuses what combination results in the best battery life for your sensation

Moderate usage - 12h+.
Low usage - 24h.
I find this to be more than acceptable, but it's only so because I use Chichitec batteries.
On stock battery it was 7-8h with moderate usage, but I did basically kill that battery with all the testing I did for the touchscreen fix :\
Anyway, that’s on ARHD 3.6 and Bricked kernel, with Sense mostly removed and JuiceDefender for mobile data.
And I do recommend Anker/Chichitec batteries. They are so cheap that it doesn’t matter if they make a difference in battery life or not. The point is you have a spare in your pocket

i am using Anker Battery.
It runs much cooler than stock battery
Using EddyOS stock rooted ROM v4...
Its 2.3.5 with sense 3.5
Radio is latest 10.58
Its stock kernel with no tweaks,no underclockings and no task killers..
You can check everything about ROM here..
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1281040
More Details in usage:
On battery: 15 hrs 27 mins
Display on time : 5 hrs 43 mins ( 90% time it was on lowest brightness)
Voice calls: 39 mins
Wifi: 4 hrs 32 mins (90% time i did Web browsing)
No video streaming, no games, no data, no GPS
In picture you can see my signals cut out frequently..3% time it was No signals. Remaining you can see i get low signals.(2-3 bars) 50% of the time. if i had good reception, i could have got a much better battery life..
For me i would say i got atleast 30% improvement than stock battery...
Fair enough. What I'm saying is that threads like this have been created before with not much result. Good luck to making it work,but I'm sceptic about it.

Anker battery about a month and half old now, various ROMs but between trip's MIUI and the formal MIUI as i prefer over sense.
Exchange service on push, gmail service on hourly, so heavy email, reasonable texting (10-15 a day), no games, wifi if i am in the office or home and some web browsing/maps and ym usually also. Full day (24 hours) easily, sometimes a little more or if i have flashed anything and done the obligatory benchmark maybe just under 24hrs before i see it hit 10%.
I like to use Cpu tuner and modify the screen off to drop cpu way low, extreme powersave to use 2G (though its not always successful at setting it) only and thats about it. Also careful with the auto brightness settings..as screen is always the biggest drain especially if its over bright.
24hrs with some small charge left is my benchmark before i will use it as a daily.
How do you guys get goods battery timings with trips Miui or the Miui ROM in development section here?
Whenever i install that ROM my phone starts to warm up like hell... Its with fresh flashing without any applications installed...

Yes i think the 2.3.4 sense are very very good performance wise now. 2.3.5 probably just a bit under. But i dont have any warming issues on the MIUI Roms and Trip's with Bricked 1.5 has been solid the last 2 versions - quite excellent i think. I'm back on Scott's today to give it a go but its looking like i will be at about 20hours max (stock kernel) with very little email today..but both are well workable for me.
On Sense ROMs (either 3.0 or 3.5) I used to manage 20 hours (max), switched to CTDroid's Reverted AOSP V1.1.0 ROM with Bricked Kernel v1.4 (192 - 1536 OnDemand), I've just recorded 1 Day 3hrs
Thinking about getting Anker Battery and seeing how that performs?
(Still got to change my sig!!!!)
On Hypersensation I could get about 15-18 hours on moderate usage, with my 1900MAh battery, but I switched back to Android Revolution HD today with Bricked kernel 1.5, because I love sense
Will post screenshot of my battery stats later on.
was looking for a bigger battery, this battery is bigger and cheaper than anker battery, has anyone used this?
I'm on Bulletproof 1.4 with Bricked kernel set at 1.5 with on demand and I'm extremely pleased with battery life and performance

Hey I'm looking for the closest to stock ROM with the best battery life. Im not sure if i should stay stock and rooted (6.0.1) and go with franco kernel or switch to CM 13 (CAF?)...or something else even.
Id say my usage is about average, minimal usage while working, probably less than an hour talk time per day. Maybe 1-2 hours of screen on using various apps (browser, light games, news apps). Generally i make it through a day with about 20-25% left before i goto bed and plug it in to charge every night.
However when i do make more use of it the battery seems to deplete pretty fast. Ideally i would just like better battery life, its the primary reason i havent upgraded the phone yet. I dont need a faster phone, i need one that gets significantly better battery life.
Any recommendations would be great. Thanks

Your mileage will vary greatly depending on usage and what apps you use.
I have personally found that a good kernel is the key to good battery life. I'm a fan of Cataclysm and ElementalX personally.
Best battery life is with stock rom + stock kernel. Before i used custom kernels, but over a week now i have used stock rom with stock kernel and i must say that i get better battery life than before with customs. IMO.
