Been on this ROM for over a week, so everything is settled.. This basically means my battery is shot, right?
Brightness is always set to lowest dim setting. Screen on for an hour.
Have a new battery coming for the holiday season. Just curious why the battery indicates "Good" health reading.

No it looks like you have a program keeping from deep sleep since over 80% screen on.. CPU SPY from market will let you know but either you never put phone down out have rogue application preventing deep sleep.

I have CPU SPy installed, and it's definitely kicking down to deep sleep. That's the first thing I checked
I couldn't fit it in the screenshot, but my min freq is 384 and that's at 25%. My phone doesn't feel snappy if it's at 192.

When I use the phone to play a game or web browse it starts to get really hot on the top half of the screen.

Is there anyway that I can to see if the phone is overheating/getting too hot?

How hot is it getting? I'm pretty sure every smartphone experiences some kind of heat from gaming or streaming videos specially when you are charging it at the same time.

Any apps running in the background besides using the browser? Have you rebooted your device?

No and the phone does not get nearly as hot on wifi. Really odd. Also the phone was overcloaked before but I pushed it back to just 1ghz. My phone burning me for using the browder out is not cool though. Think there is an issue?

Well there doesn't seem to be anything wrong with the device since you said you put it back to 1 ghz. Really odd if you ask me. Maybe its a battery problem? Sometimes defective batteries cause overheating and can explode.

It only gets hot when I use Japan too. Never on wifi. (Well it does a little playing games) I think I will call customer support tomorrow.

I'd recommend you flash and reinstall the ROM on your phone. Sounds to me like you've still go some of the old performance updates kicking in making the device hotter!
For me your temperatures are pretty normal. When I am not gamimg my max was 91F!!

Since you claim to have been able to move around the CPU frequency, I assume you are running setCPU. In setCPU you can look at Info tab where under the battery header it also displays the battery tempt. It's normal for the phone to heat while you are charging, on call for long or gaming for long duration but if you are seeing absurdly high reading for the battery tempt, then you better have it checked.
Hmm I had a overheating issue last night, woke up to my phone making a loud noise - I had set setCPU to make a noise when it goes over 40C and it did this today in the early hours of the morning whilst it was charging.
No processes were running other than the normal Live Wallpaper, Keyboard etc.. The phone was quite hot to the touch as well, so I just turned it off.
Weird thing is I have another profile in setCPU to have the max freq at 800Mhz and lowest 100Mhz when the screen is off so don't know how it got so hot?
Ok so yesterday and today my battery has been atrocious. 5 hours on IDLE and it went from 100 to 55%. What the hell? Under battery usage it says android OS ~23%, clock ~18% and android system ~22% as the top 3.
Get the app betterbatterystats and see what was keeping your phone awake. It was most likely a deep sleep issue. I would also suggest cpu spy. Goodluck

as ckck says, this app will help you narrow down the problem as to which app it is. Its a paid app but a free dev version is available here on xda. CPUSpy as he also mentioned is an app to check whether or not your phone is going into deep sleep. If it's not, an app is definately keeping it awake, which is your problem.
If you're running the ICS leak go to Settings->Sound and uncheck "Touch sounds" and "Screen lock sound". I did this and it tripled my battery life.
I use 2xbattery app with email push set to 30 minutes. It is a great battery saving. See proof.

Better Battery Stats
Start by installing Better Battery Stats:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1179809
That will help pinpoint what is running the battery.
If you lose 10% in like 30 minutes, that means that whatever you're doing, you can do that for like 5 hours. That may not be bad at all, depending on what it is you're doing.
Of course, if you're doing nothing and have the device in your pocket or on your desk with the screen off, 5 hours really bad.

Can you explain how auto brightness causes battery drain, because that's new to me. I assume if I'm using the optimal backlight for the room, I'm using optimal battery.
If you're in a bright environment, brightness on the screen goes up with auto brightness
Manually set the screen brightness to low = less battery consumption

auto brightness doesn't even effect the battery performance. Speaking of "battery saver" apps, don't ever use those, it only makes the problem worse. I suggest don't use live wallpapers, end unnecesarry background apps, or just free the phone storage
This is horrible. Screen in time is maybe and hour and 50 mins. I love ktonnsez kernel and cm10 stable release. Kernel settings:
Max:1728 Min:192 Governor:ktoonservative io:noop disabled the touch boosters. Screen off profile mhz:384 screen off profile governor:ktoonservative.
What am I doing wrong?

Actually you need to up your screen of clock. That low and the CPU has to keep running with the screen off to finish up tasks so your phone can't go in deep sleep. Also use better battery stats because I'm guessing you have an app causing a wake lock.
Sent from my SCH-I535
I realize the over clock will brig the battery down. But the screen is what I'm confuzed about 40%? Is that normal? And it drains in 4 hours with maybe 50 minutes of screen on time. I'll try the Facebook and sync thing. But I have no idea why my battery would drain so bad just from the screen. I've never really experienced it on my incredible this bad. Same thing with the iphones and they suck.

If you dont have it get CPUSpy and make sure the phone is deep sleeping.
I just posted these in the CM10 thread, my phone right now about halfway thru my day, I run 1512 interactive cfq on stock kernel, 12/4 Nightly
Hey, I recently installed paranoid android v20, (my first custom rom on this phone) and I'm noticing that my phone isn't entering deep sleep very often. Last night I rebooted to refresh everything and get fresh numbers. I plugged it in and put it in airplane mode. And this morning it showed 5 hours in 192mhz and only 1 1/2 hours in deep sleep. (I only slept for 6 1/2) any idea what I can do to increase the use of deep sleep?
More detail: I have my cpu set to 1350mhz max - 192mhz min, with interactive governor, using Kernel tuner.

You can go to settings, developers options, and make sure that " stay awake" is not checked. Because if checked it will prevent device from sleeping. Also check permissions on your installed apps and make sure they don't say prevent phone from sleeping. You can also try the app from the market called " Deep sleep battery saver " it puts the device into deep sleep when not in use. I think this will be helpful for you! Best wishes and hope I've helped you!!
Sent from my HTC Sensation
Stay awake is off. And I tried that app before and I'm not sure if it worked. But I'll try it again. And how would I find out which apps have "prevent phone from sleeping" other then checking each app one by one? And, other then uninstalling, how would I disable it? Thanks.

You could install BetterBatteryStates.
It monitors 'wakelocks' which keeps the phone awake. You might find the app/settings to blame.

I remember now why deep sleep battery saver doesn't work for me. It turns off wifi at home, yet I need wifi for groove ip phone calls. So can't use it. I'll check out better battery stats, maybe that'll fix it. Thanks.

Okay, last night I charged my phone and left it unplugged with better battery stats monitoring. This morning I look and find a 22% drain after 10 hours, 9 hours in deep sleep, 1 hour awake. I checked and 44% of partial wake locks was Google maps. Why? Am I being tracked? Sheesh! So I used link to SD to freeze it until I need to use it. (which isn't to often as I primarily use Waze for navigation, maps is mainly for bus directions.) hopefully that will increase my battery life. Thanks!

Yeah okay, maps wasnt the problem its googles location service thats always checking where i am. So I disabled it. Hopefully that will fix the problem.

I have a similar problem, that is when I look at battery status plot under settings sometimes I see that the phone NEVER goes into sleep mode (always awake).
I installed BetterBatteryStatus and I see a lot of time spent under "partial wakelocks": mainly AlarmManager and Event Log Service. Any hint on how to solve?
Thank you in advance.

The guy who made the app is very responsive and a lot of the people there will help you. so, make a dump of your partial wake locks and submit it in the thread. you should also read through it a bit to understand others problems which may be similar to yours. see thread link below.
