Good Battery Life. I have virtuous infinity alpha2

honestly I thought the 4g slide was pretty good on performance even underclocked......have you been experiencing slowness or when you say you want performance do u mean for games? or everyday browsing?

Wiping your battery stats will get you nowhere, their wiped each time the device charges to 100%. Also the oem battery sucks look into an Anker so you have multiple small batteries rather than one huge one.

I've been getting really good battery life with the gold 2450 mAh battery people have been posting about on the accessories thread... Phone will last over 18 hrs of HEAVY use and over 24 of moderate to light use and today it came off the charger at 3 pm, talked from 3:45 to 4:50 and texted off and on the rest of my shift and it has 68% left on virtuous infinity alpha 2 with V6 supercharger running. Mostly 2G with no wifi up, bluetooth on all day.

Supercharger?
Sent from my myTouch 4G Slide using xda premium
Yeah V6 Supercharger... Link can be found in the MikXE OP on the dev forums or you can search it. It isn't strictly necessary on this phone as compared to my G1 (lol!) BUT it definitely helps keep things running smoothly.
Oh yeah and in response to your original question - if your rom supports overclockng/underclocking you can either modify the settings via developer options (on most aosp roms) or get a third party app such as setcpu or antutu cpu master (i use rom toolbox) to control the minimum and max processor speeds. Mine is set at 192 min and 1512 max with the governor set to on demand and it runs fine. Deep sleep can get a bit... Deep... At times and not wanna wake up but for my battery life it's a small price to pay.

I've never really seemed to get much of a battery life difference over or underclocked. I do set the min clock all the way down to 192.
I use the big 3500 Hyperion. I'm a heavy web user...it gets me through the day.
Cm9 definitely seems to extend my life vs. Sense roms. But that's perceptive. I can't prove it.

That is like running your car's engine at 6000rpm everywhere you go and when you park it. Sure it can do it, but how long will the engine last and how long can your gas tank hold out. By allowing the governor to regulate speeds the phone gets to use the cpu horsepower much more reasonably and allows the phone to use much less cpu power (sleep)when it isn't being utilized. I set mine at 192 min 1516 max and the governor to on-demand (depending on what profiles are available).
1.7 didn't ever do much for me other than make the phone hot and slightly crabby. 1.5 runs cooler, more stable (noticeably so), and with better battery life. 1.2 works just fine as well.
Hastily spouted for your befuddlement

So,I'm so freaking tired of charging my phone 3 times a day (HTC inspire) so I flash different roms,without sense to try and save battery,and I get maybe one extra hour!! So it makes me want a different phone,and I try to think of a different OS so I install miui just to see if I can stand not having full blown android,and I can't. So I'm stuck at a crossroad,with no money to just buy another phone. What would you do? No one will trade me an atrix lol.

set the clockspeed down to something low but still usable
and set the screen off clock to something low
NOT the lowest since it could cause deathsleep. (not waking up)
Maybe look for an better battery too?
If you have more than one launcher then remove all widgets from the others!

Anyone who has installed the Gingerbread rom on their Inspire, have you noticed any difference in battery life. This is supposedly the main benefit to the upgrade. I want to wipe the Bloat ware off my system, but not install a rom unless it makes a huge difference. Any info on this would be greatly appreciated...
I am running inspired ace which runs gingerbread and battery life is great.

+1 to inspired ace and much better battery life than stock.
Last time I went battery for awhile; See attached.
Granted 9 hours of that I was asleep as was the phone but the rest was me playing games, reading, downloading apps, browsing listening to music using stereo bluetooth.
Rom is in the Sig.
Gingerbeast does have awesome battery life. I reverted back to RCMix3D only cause I missed it, and I get about 10-18 hours out of my battery on that one.
+1 on the RCMix,, cant say its much longer,, but it is good for a 8 hr wrk day..
+1 for inspired ace rom - battery is great and so is the performance increase!

I have used HoneySense and LeeDroid, I have found that LeeDroid's kernel MUCH better than both HoneySense and the stock when it comes to battery life. In the end, it all depends on what you want, when you want alot of bells and whistles on all the time, your battery life will suffer, if you are more minimalist, you battery life will be much better
So far I've been one of those 'bells and whistles' people, and even on VU1.27 which I assume is pretty efficient I only get 8-9hrs. Surprising the biggest user has been voice calls, which will suck the battery dry in 2-3hrs if you have a couple long conversations.

Dear all,
Is it a must that OC will consume much alot battery?
I am currently using Thiaiz V21a without OC, before tried the OC of Thiaiz and Accura V5 OC 1.18,, seems the battery drop much faster when OC..even it feel faster but not consistantly stable at all.
HOw about Accura V6.1 oc? Would it consume much alot battery?
You know the battery is not good at all so dont want to add burden to the battery by oc.
Thanks~

Oc'ed cpu eats more battery but not much coz we dont able to increase voltage yet, cpu runs at ref. Voltage.
Next point, the cpu runs on diffrent frequencies, matter of its using, a lot of time at 300 mhz.
Take more attention that custom roms has many tweaks to increase performance, so it's maybe battery killer.

for me max. 6-8 hrs for normal usage with keeping screen on/off and 2.75G signal or wifi on.
If in sleep time it drop about 15% for 7 hrs. (2%/hr)
It deppends
It deppends of the over clock and how is it made.
I've got mine overclocked and i haven't noticed a big difference between the stock clock and the new one.
Got mine at: 1188mhz tekahuna occ module.

i use acura v6 o/cd to 1230 and have not faced much battery issue. Well maybe cuz i have a charger in my car, one cable plugged in my home pc, one charger near the main TV, one charger at my bedside and one cable plugged to my notebook in office LOL.

so what exactly does this do for the performance of your phone? Is it just apps opening up faster and games a little better?
I understand the performance gains in cpu overclocking for computers in that you get faster encoding for videos, maybe a few more fps in gaming etc but how noticeable is doing an overclock for your phone?
Is it more of a just because you can or is there a real benefit to the user that they can notice?
A 30% overclock on your PC might give you 10-15% better performance but does that equate to similar improvements with a moving to 1.5 or 1.78ghz on your phone?

It's a balance there is only so much you can get out of the CPU in anything once it passes the threshold you get less from it more heat less life we are at 1.2 default I would say after 2.0 we won't get much more but a dead battery is 3 hrs I got mine at 1.1 I am good with battery vs power consumption

He just said it...the battery consumption is much better. I don't run any apps/games which need the higher clock rates. So I also underclocked to 1.1 Ghz and I'm very happy with it.
Yes I saw this kernel! This is awesome! But my phone will fry i think

so going from 1.2 down to 1.1 improved battery life?? By how long?
A lot but I have set cpu and can jump to 1.7 easy
You tell me as of now what app needs more then 1.1 1.2 ??? Once phone boots up the phone don't need more then that

I was pretty pleased with my results here, so I thought I'd share. This is done with both OC and UV and making use of the the 3500mah batt and with moderate/normal use.
I can get that on stock battery, you must play some games and leave your phone on full brightness at all times or something.

No, I play one game in particular, and I spend more time on the web on my phone than most people do on their computer. I could get that on a stock battery too, if I never actually used my phone Before the the changes I made, I was getting significantly less life. Especially with OC.
It looks like the moment you turn your screen on your battery life plummets.

Thats from Oc'ing to 1560 lol
It's more useful to post test results on a standard battery and standard voltages and clock speeds so others can compare. I've gotten 3 days on stock CM7 nightly before, it really depends on how much one uses their phone. The biggest clue to how a ROM or kernel affects battery is to look at the idle drain (maybe with data off too). It should be flat or with < 0.5%/hr drain.
Where'd you get the 3500 Mah battery you are using? I've been trying to find a decent maker for one.
