[EVO 4G Android Development] ageesm:
Don't sit here and talk to me about research, I know damn well what the hell I'm talking about and I've read every post in this thread as I follow the threads that are important to me.

Your response to me was condescending, you come off sounding like your opinion about something that has no definitive proof is fact. I saw your original post with battery tips, it was good. Quite helpful to join most of the popular and helpful battery tweaks in one place. But everyone that responded or added anything to it, was shot down with your high and mighty attitude. You clearly haven't been a part of many Myn threads. They aren't like this, it is generally a collaborative effort and we created a much different culture than the rest of XDA.

I don't even understand why you are taking this all personally. Compatibility mode is not even a big enough issue to be worth the time we are spending on this, which is what my original point was, it does not make a huge difference as you say. Does it make a difference? Yes, I never said it didn't. How big? That is what I was speaking to, there isn't definitive evidence. For me, it was minimal. It is quite possible others use a particular app that causes a wakelock when ran in compatibility mode that I don't use. It is why running compatibility mode from Spare Parts and making it a global setting can be dangerous. It is why that option is given under each specific app in Application Management.

If there is one thing anyone will tell you about Android, it is that every device is different. Battery life is the most subjective thing about all of these devices IMO as people use different terms to describe their usage and everyone's setups are all going to be vastly different based on a myriad of factors (rom, kernel, apps, usage patterns, signal strength, heat, etc etc etc). Whenever people talk about various tips and tweaks for Android it always has to come with a disclaimer of YMMV, yours didn't, they were posted as law. Everyone should do this because it is what I've done and what has worked for me. We all have helped enough people to know that it rarely works like that...

Someone else simply asked why it helps, as most people enjoy learning not only helpful tweaks, but why it is they work and what exact issue they address. Most Android followers are a very curious bunch and that is a great thing. I responded saying there isn't a definitive reason, but it seems to help for many people so give it a shot since it's so simple. You were the one that jumped in and responded to my post, somehow acting as if I was on the other side of some imaginary argument telling me what to do and not only that, but telling me what my screen would say. It is rather presumptuous and I don't take kindly to it, when it is quite clear I know my way around Android. And as I mentioned I had turned off compatibility mode long before anyone here suggested to do it for the sake of battery life...:rolleyes:

And this is why all of the Mynions have moved on to bigger and better things, think I'll go back and see what is going on over there...I find it quite ironic you think my posts are the reason the site is going downhill. You could take a poll of the major contributors going back to Warm2.2 RLS3 and find I've been a constant throughout and have been helpful in keeping Myn's threads cordial and responsive as we all noticed what was happening all over this site. It is the ultimate reason most of us devote more time elsewhere.
