The best i have notice to save battery life on is to use gingerbread 2.3 and that you install Setcpu. I can use my phone 3-6 h more then i did before i used it :)
[Desire HD General] zizu66:
+1 for mdj rom its really great and work without any problems.
[Desire HD General] micflair:
Im using the i00 rom, and have to say the battery has improved somewhat. Still pretty crap, but an improvement!
[Desire HD General] _ ReivaX _:
Just maths:

CoreDroid v6.5 + last lee kernel = very very good battery life.

Tb stock has about 1ma when idle. Mdj cm 7.1 had about 15ma. But cm rom is much less of a resource hog when compared to sense based rom. So, I'm undecided.
[Desire HD General] reyaga7:
I'm currently using MIUI 1.5.20 and this has been the best ROM for me. I can only compare it with CM7 since I haven't tried LeeDroid just because I got sick of SenseUI. :)
[Desire HD General] :
Currently running CM7 nightly, LeeDroid's 2.0UE kernel with -25 voltages and I'd say that I get comparable battery life to what I got with Sense. However, my idle usage is very low (0.5% an hour with wifi off, as opposed to around 2% an hour with Sense).

[Desire HD General] Jayanth.M.P:
I am using LeeDroid 3.0.3 with LeeKernel 3.11 ..... battery life has definitely improved compared to stock. Looking to improve more....

(Where is MDJ v11 available ?.... Cant find it in his thread...)
[Desire HD General] kedai:
It's v19 now. Check out the stickies on the dhd dev forum
[Desire HD General] jaggysnake:
so what IS the best rom
[Desire HD General] Dabarr:
I am using coredroid 6.5... It is a sense rom with GREAT battery life... it has the lee 3.1.1 kernen included!

Will last me 48 hours easily on moderate usage having wifi turned on!

Haven't tried 6.6 a lot, since it got released today and has the mdj kernel... so that might be different...

Also I use the newest radio and ril...
[Desire HD General] kedai:
great battery life with mdj vivo 3.0.8. Rom is fast and stable too. I guess it's all up to us to test. Imo all roms are better than stock.
[Desire HD General] Aidanio:
Noticeable difference using MIUI, going down much slower than Sense
[Desire HD General] anheuer:
for me.. Leedroid + setCPU did a lot of good for the speed and battery.
[Desire HD General] just_crazzy:
Hi All ,

Until now i think Android Revolution 1.5.1 ROM is the best that i found:

In standby has a 3mA consumption

When using it has maximum 600mA consumption

(viewed by Current Widget)

Does anybody know a better ROM with a consumption less than 3mA ? in idle?
[Desire HD General] abZorber:
3 mA is good for stand-by.

I have 3-7 mA, on stand-by with 20mA peaks from time to time and 1-2 mA on airplane mode.

But how the hell you achieved 600mA drain? That's horrible drainage. I can achieve 350-400 max on Unity ROM.
[Desire HD General] just_crazzy:
Hehehe, cool reaction you have....

I achieve-it while using GPS winth maximum bightness i guess, ...because i found this big value in Battery Monitor's history log
[Desire HD General] Muhskelkater:
Im on Android Revolution HD, great batterylife. Heavy Use but i usually get 20-24 hours of batterylife (internet on, many calls, facebook) . Simply superb
[Desire HD General] mohit1234:
For me Leedroid all the way!! I get amazing battery life. I lose about 3-8 ma on wifi and 2-5 ma without wifi. Overall with medium usage and wifi on most of the time it lasts me almost 2 days!!!
[Desire HD General] just_crazzy:
Hmmm... this is curious!! because I tried leedroid and the battery consumption was of 7-10mah on standby with wi-fi off...

tell me more please your settings : 3G on or off?

Using a task killer? wich?

using a power saver? wich

thanks
[Desire HD General] mohit1234:
Nope I rarely use 3g... No task killers, no battery saver apps... I don't even setcpu either...

Try callibrating your battery... That might help.. also there may be some rogue app keeping your phone awake which is draining the battery...
[Desire HD General] just_crazzy:
Thanks a lot mohit1234, i will try to use it more and maybe i will have the same performance like your dhd...
[Desire HD General] ineser:
Virtuous ROM is quite good too, average 2 to 3ma on idle without wifi. It has good Daemon OC
[Desire HD General] Vothana:
CoreDroid or BinDroid Rom with kernel lordmodNCT 1.4 CFS is good battery life for me. And theme of Rom is look good too.
[Desire HD General] Youngunn2008:
Miui is great.
[Desire HD General] alirez_sos:
leedroid roms had good battery life
[Desire HD General] carinoxx:
Rcmix Doubleshot 1.2 the best for me

[Desire HD General] pyo[st]:
I think Android Revolution HD™ 5.2.6 is the best for battery.
[Desire HD General] nathanielsametz:
The freshly squeezed MIUI rom in these forums has been great, the battery life gets better with each update! :)
[Desire HD General] _andrea_:
In my opinion Android revolution hd and rcmix 3d 234 have the best battery life!
[Desire HD General] saimon05:
To me cm7 is the ROM which provides the best battery life. However I like senses ROM rather than cm7 so I choose lee's ROM FOR SENSE 2.1

And vu 2.35 for sense 3
[Desire HD General] Dacodsal:
I use the KingDroid 1.7.1 with the mdj's kernel and it gives me about one full day whit a hard use (all day wifi, 3g, whatsapp, facebook, twitter, etc...)
[Desire HD General] jerieljan:
Cyanogenmod 7 nightlies with its stock kernel and the recommended radio. :D

Honestly, I think the best is to be responsible in your usage :p
[Desire HD General] japre:
In my opinion the VU 2.35 is the best fo battery. On the second place is ARHD 5.2.6.
[Desire HD General] barthoz:
Install the app juice defender. It works really nice :)
[Desire HD General] Stinger696:
thanks budy :)!!
[Desire HD General] just_crazzy:
Hi ,

after few weeks since i wrote about my first opinion about Desire HD roms i flashed many roms but the best rom for me (for daily use and battery life) is LeeDroid

->stand by 3mA~10mA

->usage up to 400mA

All other ROMS have a battery drain :

->in standby of 10-30mA,

->up to 600-700mA when using in Navigation or Camera applications
[Desire HD General] badgerbeard:
Best I've had is with VU 2.35 but it depends on the signal. I'm usually in a well covered area but a few weeks ago was working at another site which has poor coverage and it caned the battery. Good area, 2 days on battery easy, bad, battery flat in 18 hours!
[Desire HD General] just_crazzy:
Hi..

i am wondering how you get this performance....because in my case with v.u. 2.35 i have 10~20mA in standby...and over 500mA when usage....,

I live in the center of the town Bucharest, 100% HSDPA coverage...no signal problems

Please tell my what radio, ril do you have...and what aplication to increase the battery life

thanks in advance
[Desire HD General] 314:
CM7 based ROMs seem to have the best battery life for me (I don't flash radios though)

But i really don't get why most people complain about battery life so much. The DHD should last around 1 day of heavy use, so just charge it at night. Or if its that much of a problem, buy some cheap batteries and a wall charger on ebay. Its not exactly that hard to carry.
[Desire HD General] paulmccallion:
ARHD works best for me, can get well over 24 hours
[Desire HD General] 1Khronos:
I would definitely have to say that LeeDroid gives the best battery life.

However I switched to ARHD a few months ago after the stagnant development of LeeDroid's ROMs. Noticed a faster and smoother UI at the cost of decreased battery life.
[Nexus S General] MarkusPO:
wtf does this mean and how can i get around it? i've unlocked the bootloader, and am trying to flash a system.img using fastboot. fastboot sends the file ok, but write fails, and the phone states invalid magic code 0x0000003 (or maybe a few more/less 0's)

why?
[Nexus S General] cgi:
It most likely means, that the system.img got corrupted somewhere along the way.
[Nexus S General] MarkusPO:
but i've tried to flash two images, and same error for both. i can flash a radio.img, though haven't tried the recovery or boot

i'm on stock, i've only upgraded with ota's from google, but one thread somewhere seems to suggest that you only get it if your recovery image is not stock

so, this is a big wtf for me.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BoogWeed:
I just received my SGS2 this afternoon and I've noticed it getting uncomfortably hot.

All I've done is root the phone, install a few apps and just general exploring/messing around.

The screen is getting very hot, the top half especially.

So is the back of the phone, again the top half mostly and especially the part just to the right of the camera lens.

Any hotter than this and I would be seriously concerned... :(

Anyone else?

No. Ten characters
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tarnajiro:
HI there

I have the galaxy S2 for few days. Today this afternoon, I also experience the same thing. It get so hot (i can really feel it) and the battery is drained to around 20 % in just about 40 mins. The phone is charge twice.

During the hot time i did

- The battery was around 80%.

- Wifi is on

- facebook app is on.

- the phone was in a sleeve all time and i have not use it at all.

the phone become really got until i restart and close all apps.

I look at the battery usage... the graph was on peak for few hrs (not sure how)

media usage is 28% the rest are below 20%

anyone share words of wisdom? defected phone?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DVC1985:
Mine has been pretty cool for the most part. It started to toast my fingers around the back where the camera lens is after dicking around on Angry Birds for 15 minutes but aside from that, no problems with heat.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tarnajiro:
battery drain faster (alot)?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RogerPodacter:
can you guys post temperature numbers? can pull those from dmesg log, or OS monitor, or system panel, etc.

anything higher than 40C is not the best.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tarnajiro:
if you dont mind, plz let us know how to obtain the info? i am pretty new to andriod.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] murklor:
Or more likely, defective facebook lol.

Either way, the hardware has built in overheating protection as it will shut down automatically. Heat is generally no problem - electronics is used to being toasty. My 3Gs can get hot as hell after a surfing session or movie watching, still going strong (or warm), haha.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BoogWeed:
After being on standby for over an hour, OS Monitor reports (under the battery section, no other section reports temperature) that the phone was 36C, after a few mins of playing this jumped up to 41C then back to a stable 39C.

If the phone (do we still call these things phones?!) gets overly hot again, I will check the temperature and report it here...

Edit: Now that I've taken it off charge, its gone down to 25C
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Quist:
I would check your wifi network. That sounds like a typical scenario when the phone starts to lose wifi and kicks into 3G and back and forth repeatedly. It's trying to get and keep a connection.

I don't have my SGSII yet, but I do have a blind spot in my wifi network that ironically is also the area of the worst 3G coverage in the house. Every phone I've owned will do something similar on occasion.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] malc678:
I also have this issue.

I was playing Angry Birds for about 20 mins and the phone was getting so hot.

Is this safe or should I be concerned? :confused:

okay sweeet that was very informative, I just have one more question, sorry to be annoying

I used to have h+ but now I only see the h icon, is this because att hasn't rolled out hspa+ in my area yet and before the h+ was just a lie that was fixed with this update?
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] WiredPirate:
Correct, H+ was just a lie. I called Att Office of the Pres to complain about the false data icons early on, so I would like to think that they heard my complaint and fixed it..kinda..haha.

Running liberty v.4 gingerbread on my dx. Yesterday I went to try and use my theathering application, and it directed me to the verizon page for 3g mobil hotspot and usb thethering. Is this a problem faced by all who use gingerbread? and if so has there been a solution posted anywhere to allow me to still be able to tether on gingerbread? I never had this issue until I went to gingerbread, and will flash back to 2.2 if I need to in order to be able to tether. Any input is always apprecitaed! thanks

Try using wireless tether from the market instead

[Droid X General] jalupinja:
If you are under contract with verizon (I.E. the one or two year contract offered in order to obtain a discount on your mobile device) then rooting your phone is illegal as well as teathering with out paying the service fee! If you are not under a contract then it is leagal to do as you wish to or with your own phone, including but not limited to rooting, teathering, and cloning another device owned by you (also not under contract) for your own use and purpose!!!
[Droid X General] smiteme:
First off, this thread was not started to create an argument or debate on the legalities of tethering or rooting. Now that being said, how is tethering illegal? We should be able to use our "unlimited" data package however we wish. From my understanding, there is a difference between tethering and the mobile 3g hotspot which makes the way they both go about producing the wireless internet different. Again though, this is not the point, I was simply hoping someone could help me, if i wanted to be lectured on what I was doing wrong, I would have asked "hey, is this something that is wrong or not" can we please stay on topic?
[Droid X General] faber78:
here we go....
[Droid X General] jussumguy88:

[Droid X General] taterDX:
seriously I agree stop lecturing on tethering, people are going to do it regardless... go onto a different forum for its illegal and what not geez
[Droid X General] Jmoney47:
Tethering and rooting is in absolutely no way illegal and does not even go against the terms of service. If you are against rooting then you truly don't belong on a DEVELOPERS forum.

Anyway, what I would recommend is trying wireless tether, if that doesn't work, you could try a wired tethering service such as PDAnet or easytether which is what I use
[Droid X General] zenboy:

Tethering doesn't work in GB? F that, I'll stay on .340.

Rooting is not illegal. What penal code refers to this? It simply voids your warranty.
[Droid X General] chbennett:
The fifth us circuit court has deemed there is no legal basis to prevent users from gaining higher level access to their devices. As for contract obligations, there are no stipulations against rooting, rather it voids the warranty, which is acceptable. Teathering is a bit of a gray area. There are two schools of thought. You obviously highlight one, but I believe in the other. That being that I signed up for a data plan at $29.99 a month that allows for my usage of as much data as I desire. (Unlimited, as in not restricted) As teathering is a feature of the android device I purchased, I am using my unlimited data plan in a manner I see fit. And lastly, I would love a direct quote of the verizon service agreement you draw this conclusion from.

Back onto topic, the TBH patcher works with wireless teather. The trick with the patcher is to flash it in CWM a few times, reboot, start teather, then flash it a few more times. Whatever the difference was, it works well for me.

Sent from my Xoom the way it should be, rooted and with SD card.

I got a letter last year that said something to the effect that I am using too much data (I have unlimited plan), and that if I don't decrease my data usage they were going to charge me more per month (I think it was $66/month more).

They did not specifically mention tethering, just excessive data usage.
[Droid X General] taterDX:
how much were you using golf? that's crazy
[Droid X General] faber78:
Did you tell them you'd send them your opinion of $60 a month just like they sold you their opinion of unlimited.
[Droid X General] larsdennert:
There were a few HTC kernals that would undo settings. It's been a year now that I came across it. The Incredible I think. Sort of like when you wipe and the OS initializes and writes new settings before you have a change to flash the new kernal and then you have to wipe again. The setting could be in RAM and get written back out to NVRAM after you changed it.
[Droid X General] nmeofdst8:
For the Record...the governing body that reviews the Digital Millenium Copyright Act (DMCA) recently decided it is not illegal to Root "1. Smart-phones: Jail-breaking and rooting smart-phones is no longer illegal, as it does not alter the SALE of the phones, or really qualify as an act of piracy in itself. Up front, this ruling was squarely directed at Apple and the iPhone. Apple was arguing that jail-breaking is illegal, and a copyright infringement since the act actually uses small bits of Apple code. The Register disagreed since it was such a small portion that was being used. Regardless of who it was targeted against, there is now no legal ramifications of people rooting their handsets to be able to use applications that need root to function."

One would imagine Google would implement sudo and make it available so that end users will have some limited access to run some apps that need root privilege.

Someone rooting to re-ROM a phone or hack the bootloader is in a very different class from someone who needs temporary/limited root privilege to do a nandroid backup/restore or take a screenshot.
