ok so i got my charge 2 days ago and am rooted with Gingerbread leak,
so i have some questions.
First: is there roms for gingerbread? because i couldn't find any.
Second: what kernels are there for GB? can i use PBJ?
Third: now ever since i got the phone it drains batter pretty quick with everything off. and hardly using it maybe about 20% per hour. i tried undervolting with Setcpu but wasn't successful, so what app do you guys recommend to undervolt the charge? or any guides to do so?
thanks,
Check out the development section. Gummy Charged GBE is great

I did, thanks for the reply. now i have voodoo and on the recovery sais enable 100mhv something like that. is that so i would get more battery?
You can't undervolt on gb because its a leak meaning no kernel source.
I think setcpu will let you underclock which would give better battery life but reduce performance considerably.

Whenever you change roms, you should calibrate your battery. It works wonders

You need to return to stock, then fresh Odin GummyCharged GBE 1.9RC2.3 if you want Gingerbread as it's really the only modified Gingerbread rom. Eclipse is available, but i'm not sure if the dev still supports it or not. The quick battery drain is something that goes along with the fact Gingerbread is a leak. GummyCharged team has done a wonderful job with minimizing this drain. I have found it actually has better battery life than Froyo. That's just my personal experience.
I'm new to the inspire and I was wondering which rom and kernel set up would give the longest battery life I came from the atrix and battery was great cause the battery was huge lol but every rom i've tried has been giving me 9 hours at the most with moderate usage. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated?

Any. Just choose. If you don't like that one, try another. You can also flash roms from the desire HD thread too. But you will need to flash a sound fix

No one is gonna be able to tell you what works best for your device. Flash some roms and test them out. Each device and set up is different. A search would have told you this.

Hi.
I think that if you want so good batterylife as possible, it all depends on what ROM and kernel you are using together.
In my opinion Matr1x and GlaDOS 2.9 are probably the best, and you should try one of them, or why not try one for a week, then try the other and then deside.

Deside should be with a c.... DECIDE!!
No, just kidding, but it is with a c. I think you're totally right! I prefer Matr1x, but GlaDOS belongs to one of the best kernels as well!

Ok so just flashed the current matr1x kernel and now as settings go what governor and cpu setting should I use for best battery life
Sent from my Nexus S using xda premium
I set cpu at 100 min, and max 800... And governor at lazy... I unplugged at 12 noon and its 1:37 and im at 79% is this normal...
As I only check xda 3 times and facebook once and email a few time and texting between 2 people and a 20 minute call...

I'm very surprised at this, given Pete's propensity to tweak the baked in kernel dramatically to improve both performance and battery life. I'm getting great results of both using his kernel.
Saying that, Steve Garon's plays very nicely with Pete's ROM. Either leave ondemand and deadline scheduler.
Matr1x is also very good. Same there, or use lazy for decent battery life.
As for what settings. It totally depends what you have going. If you got 25 different news widgets sucking data like there's no tomorrow, then yes, you;re going to see crappy battery life. Tell us what you;ve got going on and we'll try and help.
Well I just turned sync off most Google stuff aside from Gmail and twitter sync is off and other stuff I am not all sure what is and isn't off or on
I can almost sit back and watch my battery tick down ward
Is there like maybe an extended battery aside from the one in box can buy to assist n more juice

Hey xda, Ive got this rarely used g2x. Don't even got a simcard for mainly using it for fun I guess but I am gonna get it in service soon. Thing is I am getting terrible battery life on all recent roms, eb gb and ics and Hellfire gb and ics, I got stock battery, even with kernals my battery's terrible, looking for reccomended roms and kernals and any tricks/mods to improve battery life, and remember this is even without any data usage and am still getting this amount of battery life.

You never told us what you have tried, or what kinda battery life you are getting. Also did you put the phone in airplane mode so it isn't looking for service?
Sent from my LG-P999 using xda premium
For example I just turned the phone on from after being in the charge for 7 hours, i then immediately went to xda app and then checked the battery and found it at 96%.

I dont remember which kernels specifically but I did say which roms, I've flashed all.of them atleast twice but am willing to do so again.
Sent from my LG-P999 using XDA
I've found that ICS roms are horrible on battery life. Also, like mt3g said, put it in airplane mode since you aren't on a mobile network. Take a look at this thread too http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1054420
Should I use Hellfire or eb gb, I've heard that eb is better but hellfire's gb was updated more recently, and which suggested kernal to go with it. I understand that it all depends in your phone but what in.your experience / opinion is the best combo.

The rom I'm using right now is Eaglesblood build 2.8 which is GB 2.3.7. I get pretty decent battery life just using the kernal that is built into it normally. I was having a few problems with HFP 2.1 so I switched to this and haven't looked back. Even though it isn't the most recent I still feel like its the best, just my opinion though.
I have got the best battery life so far with Eagles blood GB as well. HFS v1.5 is giving me ok battery life but EGB gave me double time as this ROM

Try them out, read the threads to see common issues and things that work well. Stop asking everyone here to do that little bit of work for you.
XDA is not your personal slave, we should not, and will not spoon feed you. Look around, spend more then 2 minutes looking at the first post. If you put in a good effort, people will be willing to help you, but just constantly asking for which ROM is just lazy.
You did not answer the question of whether you put the phone in airplane mode, you have not said any of the ROMs you've tried (other than all of them, which I doubt). At least pretend to give a ****...
Search!!!! there are tons of threads on how to increase battery life
Sent from my LG-P999 using Tapatalk
? I don't think you give a **** because if you read my post you would of known that I'd have tried eb ics and gb, and hellfire ics and gb rom, and i've actually spent hours reading pages in the roms topic and other places, and I forgot to answer that question, my answer is no I don't even have a simcard in the phone for it to be searching for service and enabling it would stop wifi which is what I do use.
You can put the phone into Airplane mode and then enable WiFi. Even though you don't have a Sim install it can still try to search for a network and drain the battery. It will need a network without a Sim to be able to call 911 if needed.

Just go back to the kernal you had before and it should be fine
@ctowne... I would love to know what you are doing that makes your battery life that good with a stock kernel. I'm running cm 7.0.2 and I've charged my phone a couple times through heavy use. I have cut a lot of the processes down and did all the troubleshooting to get better battery life and its still draining like **** during heavy ( or what I would call heavy) use

I don't think its necessarily the stock kernal. It's the one that is built in to Eaglesblood GB. Also try to follow this guide, it seemed to help my battery life. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1054420 I did get around 30 hours on that charge but it varies quite a bit depending on usage. I always get a full day of moderate use though. Try switching to Eaglesblood GB and follow that guide to 20 hour battery life and see if it helps. If not, your battery could just be old/bad. Hope this helps!
Yeah i tried the eaglesblood rom and wasn't too impressed. Im sure that it was good for performance, however i immediately missed the customization with cm7 (adw launcher) and the themes that came with it. after i have flashed the faux123 kernel on here with cm7, im happy to say my battery life is incredible. i fished all day yesterday and listened to music while texting a bit and making a few phone calls. was out for about 10 hours and had only used 40% of my battery. so for anyone looking for a good cm7 kernel, the faux has been the best i have found yet
I'm trying to hunt around for the best battery life so let me know your opinions. Thanks

Best battery life would come from one of the debloated stock roms most likely...but it also keep in mind not every phone reacts the same way as others do to a Rom...one person may get amazing life on one...while another gets terrible life on that same exact one...

So far my personal opinion would be more towards the RemICS Rom. Its pretty friggin sweet all around!

I've been running legend rom for the past 2 weeks, been great.
before that I was running the unofficial cm9, that was awesome-only problem was no bluetooth.
that's what I was on before this. I am actually thinking of switching to something that has Bluetooth for the time being until they get a patch on RemICS. Its the only downfall!

Although development had stopped, Zeus had the best battery life for me.
erytherm cisa).
Zues was pretty good,except I had SOD issues several times a day, wiped, reinstalled, re-downloaded, went back to stock, rooted again, reinstalled, nothing seemed to fix the issue
For me most of the bigger gb roms all had good battery life. (legend, aeon, zues, emacipation).
One of the best roms ive used as far as battery was actually dman's catyrom. With pretty heavy usage.
But ive found out that using better battery stats to track down battery hogs is a must for any rom.
