I am using the most current version of cyanogen 7 on my Droid 1. I can’t get Juice Defender with Ultimate Juice to get past the setup screen, it just keeps starting over. Anyone have any thoughts or advice? Thanks in advance

Share your tips!
I think automatic brightness is the best. If you go out during the day you won't be able to see anything on 0 brightness.
It's probably more convenient to just buy a second battery.
Good guide for those desperate for more battery life though.
Green Power is a much simpler alternative to Juice Defender and seems to work a lot better too!
Also there is no need for a task killer if you are running GB. Complete waste of time.
Task killer is much easier than GB internal app control. Save time, not waste time.
But remember FC task killer together thats all.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Automatic brightness is good but not battery saving. The screen sensors have to work all the time and keep adjusting brightness. :/
Yes, we cant see anything under the sun. Thats the con.
1 more tip, uninstall useless aps
I have a Samsung Galaxy S running the FASTY ROM, and when I switched over to this ROM, I noticed I went from 6-hour battery life to 2-3 days battery life!
Go to every Apps that has Notification Interval in their setting, it updates in background although not display in the Accounts & Sync
Leave you phone off. Usually gets me unlimited power and run times.

That means you are good in saving battery.
There have been good tips mentioned but I would like to add that all those battery saver apps just do nothing. These kinds of apps are just ads while some of them like juice defender offer androidees a paid version (Ultimate, Pro etc) which is just another trick where it may be useful for lazy guys who can't turn wifi, bluetooth or other connections or apps off themselves!
I haven't actually tried any of ROMs which are told to be effective (like "undervolt") and on this position I must admit that manufacturers' ads for their mobile products are just lies as I have a SGS2 and whenever I start to play a HD game or connect via wifi it just starts to drain the battery times times more than the advertised battery life!
The only and reliable way of saving battery could be just using carefully: HD games for maximum 30-45 min and wifi connection for 2-3 hours. Playing movies or music could be run in a more span of time like 4-5 hours. Otherwise you will have no remaining for calling or necessary usages!

It's true, but other things also affect battery life (many of which the OP mentioned).
However, I just wanna add one thing which I'm sure many of you already know. But the reason I am mentioning it is because I witnessed this work on two Samsung Phones belonging to my friend and his wife: Galaxy Pro & Galaxy Mini (name of the phones, not my friends ).
At first, and on stock rom(not rooted) their battery life was horrible; and by horrible I mean less than 6 hours of usage (<24 hours idle).
I googled it and read somewhere, that fully recharging the phone then draining it completely (until it switches off itself) every day for a few days, the battery life will improve noticeably.
I told them about it; they tried it; and after only 3 days they started to notice the difference. They told me that it really made a difference. Now their battery life is 6-7 hours usage. 48 hours idle.
I know those numbers sound unrealistic but somehow it worked.
I have read this before, and it seems to be a common thing for battery life.
I haven't tried it on my DesireHD because I'm always hopping between different ROMs..
I hope this would be helpful for someone...
... my two cents Cheers!
Nice tips, thanks
Ways to maximize your battery life.
Generally when it comes to battery life I try to use those two tricks which work very well with ICS Roms.
I use ondemandx governor 122-1612MHz with suspend_freq=122MHz.
In order to achieve lowest power consumption in standby. You can tune manually Vdd at 122MHz =suspend_freq to the lowest value.
I also change in /system/buid.prop the value of ro.ril.disable.power.collapse to 0 instead of one by default in order to allow deeper sleep of the air interface.
Over all the type of ROM you are using, the age and capacity of your battery in your device also play a roll in the average time you get out of your device

1612MHz, what rom is that??
updated 29/4/12
The main function:
- Keep screen always bright, never fell into a sleep state.
- Keep your network, internet connection is always connected.
Tutorial:
- Auto create light every ... (second): When you set on Settings that after 15 seconds, screen will turn off then you should input box a value less than 15. This founction will work well.
- Auto turn off light keeping light function after ... (minute).
-Same with keeping connection:
* Note: The default value is 10 seconds. You can increase this value, depending on your device to save battery life a little more. However, if it is too large, the function may not work properly.
Download Keep Light and Connection on Google Play
Thank you very much.
Wellcome!

Let us not imagine a smartphone without battery. Battery is most important part of a smartphone. There is a few cause to drain battery quickly. Like as big LCD display and luscious AMOLED display, and background apps obviously drain your battery quickly. You can do something to make battery for last longer. Let’s see that how to increase battery on your android smartphone.
how save battery life
How android batteries work:
Have you heard that most smartphones have a lithium-polymer either or lithium-ion battery. Both of actually lithium-ion though, and as like, do not have a 'memory', which means that you can charge them from any level – you don't have to fully discharge it before charging it up – and you don't have to charge them all the way to 100 percent.
In fact, lithium-polymer either or lithium-ion types of batteries affected by low voltage problems, so it's actually better to partially charge it (say, from 20 percent to 90 percent) than to fully charge and fully drain tit. Just explore that is it work for you and you can easily increase battery on your Android smartphone.
how save battery life
Using du battery saver apps:
du battery saver is a most powerfully app for save battery.you can use du battery saver for save battery life.for download click here
Black wallpaper can increase battery:
If your phone has an AMOLED display (like as Samsung devices), use a dark-colored wallpaper for background . AMOLED screens only illuminate the colored pixels that’s why Black wallpaper can increase battery life. Black pixels are unlit, so that less power is needed to light them up.
Doze:
With the entrance of Marshmallow came a new feature called Doze, which is helps you get to reduce drain of your battery. , Doze is the most noticeable addition for android Marshmallow. It is allow default and typically permit your device to enter hibernation mode when it has been lock or unused for a long period of time.
Update your apps into latest version:
Keep update your apps with the latest version. The developers constantly update apps for battery and memory optimization. Keeping your apps updated also means you have the best optimizations available
Using Greenify apps:
There are many Android apps that claim that they optimize performance and increase battery life, Greenify is one of them and it’s actually works by preventing them from operating in the background. , which reduces their impact on the system Greenify stops this by sending those apps into hibernation and saving battery life while improving performance.
Reduce auto-brightness:
The screen is a biggest battery drainer. This is one of the best ways to increase your battery life to use auto-brightness manually to a level that is low but comfortable your eyes. And do not use display as auto-brightness mode.
Turn off vibrate and haptic feedback : For save battery turn-off your vibration alerts for incoming call, and turn-of your keyboard vibration and touchpad sound.
Use 'Do Not Disturb' or 'sleep' schedule :
when you are In a meeting , set your device to not ring, vibrate or connect to the internet when you are sleeping you can enable blocking mode to switch off Wi-Fi and mobile data when you don't need them.
For this purpose many phones have a Do Not Disturb setting.
For example you can use airplane mode.
Trun-off unnecessary service:
Whenever you don't need them turn off, Wi-Fi , GPS, Bluetooth, NFC and mobile data,Turning off location. It’s will increase battery on your Android smartphone.
Explore the battery saving features on your phone:
At first Find out the battery saving option in your smartphone and Trun on your bettery saving mode in your android smartphone when you are out of home and not use the phone.
Turn off auto-sync trap:
If you do not need google account update in every 30 minutes, tap into setting to turn-off google account turnoff auto sync and for these app you do not need update. For example email, Facebook, twitter, reddit Instagram etc. just sync when you actually use the app.
I miss something’s? What you have any idea about battery saving tips? Tell me about them in the comments.
I don't, and will never use gapps or any google's apps.
I am experiencing a high and crazy performance using ntfs as androed installation.
I will never burn my money in ext2/3/4 or any ext device.
I will never pay absurds for unrooted phones to rooting only to purge gapps and gogle apps or any other kind of damned apps that stays cooking battery.
My next device, needs be like this screenshot, with ntfs, rooteable, rom choices, or DEATH!
I hate androids.
This is why i preffer write Androed

mod edit - link removed How to improve iPhone battery life in iOS 11[/URL]
In a recent tech*poll, 70% of readers reported that*battery life was worse with iOS 11. In the same article, we noted that security research firm Wandera shared data that it took iOS 11 an average of 96 minutes to drain iPhones and iPads completely, while iOS 10 took 240 minutes.*While more that a 50% drop in battery life sounds terrible, there are a few things to keep in mind.
if you want to get right to tweaking your iPhone for better battery life, head below.
How to improve battery life
1. Understand your battery usage
Head to*Settings*→*Battery*to check out the details of your battery usage.*Last 24 Hours*will be the default for showing what apps are using the most energy.*Tapping the clock icon on the right hand side gives you a detailed breakdown of how much time was spent on screen and in the background for each app.
Also take a look at*battery life suggestions just above battery usage. This will give you quick, actionable ways to reduce battery drain. Now you’re*in a better position to be more efficient with usage, along with having an idea of more settings to adjust as we keep going here.
2.*Adjust Auto-lock and Screen Brightness
If you notice Home & Lock Screen usage on your battery usage higher than you’d expect, double-check that setting. If you can tolerate it, 30 seconds will help you preserve the most battery life. Especially with most of Apple’s iPhones supporting raise to wake, 30 seconds is usually worth it.*Lowering your screen brightness will also help with battery life, but this will likely come down to personal preference.
Navigate to*Settings*→*Display & Brightness → Auto-Lock.
3. Background App Refresh
Low Power Mode turns off background app refresh across the board, but you can customize which apps use this feature for a more convenient experience as well as improved battery life.*You can also opt to only use background app refresh on Wi-Fi in addition to Wi-Fi and Cellular or turning the feature off. However, most users will find leaving Wi-Fi and Cellular on while customizing which apps are used for background app refresh to be the best fit.
Head to*Settings*→*General →*Background App Refresh.
4. Low Power Mode
Low Power Mode isn’t new in iOS 11, but it’s a really useful feature to stretch your battery life when needed. The feature works by suspending mail fetch, background app refresh, auto downloads, and more. This isn’t a ‘use every day’ type of feature (hopefully), but is handy in a pinch.*You can turn on Low Power mode under*Settings*→*Battery.*However, it’s really useful to have quick access to Low Power Mode by adding it to iOS 11’s redesigned Control Center.
Navigate to*Settings→*Control Center → Customize Controls,*then tap green button with a plus sign*next to*Low Power Mode.
5. Push and Fetch
Taking a look at your push and fetch settings is also worthwhile. Navigate to*Settings*→*Accounts & Passwords*→*Fetch New Data. One possible approach is to leave your primary account(s) as push to receive new mail asap, and turn secondary/non-crticial accounts to fetch every 30 minutes or hour.
6. Location Services
Taking a look at your location services settings is another way to be more efficient with battery life (and cellular data usage). Head to*Settings*→*Privacy →*Location Services*to update the privileges for your apps.
Watch out for any apps that ask to*Always*use your location and switch to*While Using*or*Never.
