Check to make sure you don't have an app with a wakelock issue. I had a problem a few days ago where I installed something using web market and apparently my phone was only in 1x so the download took forever. Needless to say I went from 70% battery to about 40% fairly quickly.

If you are using Tiamat with smartass gov there is really no need for a screen-off profile. That said if you are doing the same max/min you are better off using powersave gov. Otherwise your phone will basically keep thinking it's maxed out, try to turn up to the next clock speed only to notice that it's maxed out. With powersave it will stay on the lowest set clock no matter what.
[HTC EVO 3D] bo5ibbs:
I checked that...thanks man. And that's about what i'm getting empiire. Didn't touch it for 4 hours and I dropped to 70 percent. Yeah cm its worth it, but of course I want the most out of my phone.

What's really going on???

Yeah. I feel you. I need some clarity. Maybe I just use my phone way too damn much and have way too much updating between weather, fb, linkedin, work email, gmail, groupme and whatever else I have going on, but I consider 12 hours a miracle from baby jesus himself.

I hear the term moderate use used all the time and crazy numbers like 21 hours or a day and a half without recharging. What do you guys consider moderate use because I have never been able to get that on an android phone, running juice defender and the whole 9?
[HTC EVO 3D] lpjzfan2005:
Best ive gotten on cm so far is 11 hrs and 30 min... Then again I haven't had a lot of time with battery stats i have now... and i have to wipe them again because of tiamat 1.0.1

Hopefully I can get that kinda life again
[HTC EVO 3D] -shift-:
i'm getting over a day's worth with valpha2+battery fix, with syncing 3 gmail accounts, twitter, good messaging (work email account), and google+, and minimal to moderate usage. not only that, i'm also on wifi when i'm at home, 3g everywhere else.

i removed any and all apps that were either useless or unneeded (coming from sense, i had a lot).

also...

to everyone else, please keep feedback on other kernels in their respective threads. yes, tiamat is a popular custom aosp kernel, and cayniarb and i are good friends. however, again, it's hard to sort through the off-topic posts to see what the issues are.

we appreciate all of the feedback, but one of the reasons why xda's quality has gone down is because of the inane, sideline off-topic chatter. we have the general forum for that. this thread is about the alpha builds of cm7 for the cdma evo 3d.

backseat modding or not, we all want this to be a pleasant experience for everyone. thanks for understanding.

I have been having this annoying issue with the new Market and it does not matter what ROM I use but I am using this ROM so I thought I would ask here. It works great with 3G but very slow on WIFI, it does not make any sense to me why because my WIFI is super fast. Any ideas?
[HTC EVO 3D] -shift-:
is it on your wifi network? or any wifi connection in general?
[HTC EVO 3D] htabbach:
I have not tested it with another wifi so just on my wifi until I test it somewhere else. One thing to add, the old market works great and very fast on the same wifi when I flash the stock rooted ROM.
[HTC EVO 3D] -shift-:
that's odd. to be honest, though, the new market is at least 13 different kinds of weird. i have had many issues with it as well, regardless of rom.
[HTC EVO 3D] xdohboi:
I'm running the completely stock cm7. I check Facebook, emails, and go through about 100 text messages a day and occasionally a little more. Every once ina while I'd pull up a random YouTube video. I also have an annoying habit of constantly hitting the power button, just to see if I have notifications even though I can easily see that with the led... lol

I'm also connect to good wifi for 75-80% of the day. Lol sometimes I leave it off at work because my work wifi is either really good, or I can't ever connect to it. -_- best I've gotten is 24 hours. I usually average about 40-45% left on a 12 hour day.

To be fair the last 6-7 hours of those 24, I didn't use the phone at all because I was sleeping. I get to put it to the real test this weekend when I go out of town and don't have any wifi.

evo.3D

edit: the only thing I've noticed is that between 80-100%, it drains faster than if it were below 80%. After 80%, it's usually great.

Valpha 2 w battery fix and tiamat.

Battery life is very good. It went all day yesterday and it sat off charger all night and it was at 30%. Moderate user.

Also had market issues with wifi with other roms but works fine with this set up. Weird.

[HTC EVO 3D] shymog:
How heavily do you use your phone? Yesterday, I managed 22 hours. That's with syncing 2 gmail accounts, constant use of plume, checking Google Reader every hour or so, watching a streaming hd episode of Psych, three hours of Chrono Trigger, four phone calls (total of 30 minutes), and about 70 texts, all on the stock battery. I'm assuming you're overclocking, but that still seems poor compared to what a lot of users are reporting, especially with more than double the battery capacity.
[HTC EVO 3D] blackroseMD1:
Yeah, OC'd to 1728, I use it pretty heavily...texting all day, 3 episodes of Rescue Me, Burn The City/Plants vs Zombies/Madden 12, 3 or 4 phone calls a day, GPS on all day...

Either way, I'm good with getting 30 hours on a single charge...as long as my battery lasts from the time I wake up to the time I go to sleep, I'm happy.
[HTC EVO 3D] Mrdiaz09:
Is the alpha 2+ battery fix build stable enough for a daily driver?
[HTC EVO 3D] a1aone:
Yes it is! If you like cm7...?!
[HTC EVO 3D] -shift-:
we can't answer that question for you... it entirely depends on what your needs are and how you define "daily driver." what i suggest you do is look at the op and the changelog, and see if it fits your lifestyle and needs.
[HTC EVO 3D] Mrdiaz09:
Well I guess I should rephrase that, are there problems with random reboots, calls not coming through, etc.
[HTC EVO 3D] -shift-:
nope, no issues like that.
[HTC EVO 3D] ikennai:
Seriously

I mean, if you do all this in a day, you are doing far more than me on your phone, and I am on my phone a lot. Its mostly updating my accounts though (gmail, K9 for work mail, facebook set to 1 hr, groupme texts, regular texts, wifi when around it, on the internet for an hr or 2, and live wallpaper). Within 4-5 hours, im at about 45-50% and then start rationing use. Im on v2 alpha with the tiamat kernel.

I just need to figure out how people get so much out of their batteries, because on my Evo 4g and now 3d it seems like im always coming in below the norm on here.

Is there a wifi tethering application that works with CM7?
[HTC EVO 3D] shymog:
From a stability standpoint, I have had absolutely zero issues with this ROM. Now, if I weren't out if work and not able to drive due to injury, I'd need Bluetooth for connecting to the radio in my car, so under normal circumstances it couldn't be my daily driver, but I haven't run into anything that I use regularly that doesn't work outside of what's mentioned in the OP.
[HTC EVO 3D] arielb27:
A small update on what I have an how my battery life has been. I found out what will drain it fast. And it's the very same thing that happens on the Evo 4g.

Yesterday I was at home most of the time, and a few runs to the store. All of these locations had great phone reception. I had from 3 to 4 bars. Even at my house I have normal 4 bars. I also use Wifi when at home. I was at 49% after 13h 42m. And I had used the phone allot. I mean allot. From maps, to 24% of the time on calls. That in my view is fantastic battery life.

But here is the kicker. I was at work and I don't get but maybe 1 bar at most. And no Wifi. Well at work I don't use the phone much. So only had 2 calls. No text. But after 10 hours my battery was down to 33%. Wow now that still means it will last the day. But what a big difference.

The Radio is what drains us overall. Looking for signal searching. I also want to tell you I have never ever turned off my GPS. This phone works great with GPS left on. It does not even drain on bit. So no need to turn that off.

So we are good with normal use. But remember what really drains your phone of it's power is the Radio searching and staying connected. :eek:

[HTC EVO 3D] iModMM:
Kind off topic, idk, not sure. But how come everyone always asks for overclocking? If you ask me this phone is fast enough at 1.2ghz, you just draining your battery away any higher. Im fine with just the kernel in cm. And any stock kernel in any rom, maybe with a little tweaks.
[HTC EVO 3D] lpjzfan2005:
Hey, has anybody had android system wakelock issues on VALPHA 2 with the battery fix, battery stats reported it kept my phone awake for an hour and a half... Battery has sucked today
[HTC EVO 3D] r0cky0790:
Not trying to sound like a **** but if you overclocked you'll understand why. Overclocking doesn't really effect me battery wise. Maybe because I have a 4000mah extendo batt, but it does serve even more battery life @ stock speeds. I like to use my phone and test its limits. I feel like if I don't overclock I'm giving myself the shorter end of the stick.

My "DU4L C0R3 SH00T3R" shot you down in 3D! Screw Tupac. "A,O,S,P BACK!" >_<
[HTC EVO 3D] empiire:
I had horrid wakelock... turns out the Facebook app is a POS. Uninstalled. If you have that, check to see if it's the culprit.
[HTC EVO 3D] shymog:
I actually was thinking the same thing today. The differences are minimal at best, I've only seen minor load time differences, and apps already run as they should on the phone. Android doesn't have a "high-end" game market, and our CPU/GPU has real-world performance that doesn't match up with Quadrant/NenaMark.

Basically, there's nothing to push it. It's not like having a Tegra2 device, where even "optimized" games run somewhat sluggish and it begs for an o/c, and even at 1.2GHz, this device can run most 3D apps with 4xMSAA using Chainfire3D without breaking a sweat.

Ultimately, there are some devices that need an overclock, and I don't see where people are getting significant increases in performance in something other than an out-of-date benchmark (Quadrant).

To put it a little more on-topic, if you've installed Tiamat kernel, posting issues with operation in this thread doesn't make much sense, because it's been modified from what toastcfh has done, potentially causing new/different issues.
[HTC EVO 3D] lpjzfan2005:
I sure do... I like facebook but not that much thanks man
[HTC EVO 3D] shymog:
The official FB app is garbage and seems to get updated with little to no testing. If you can live with ads, Friendcaster is a good "free" alternative, and I've had zero issues using it.
[HTC EVO 3D] lpjzfan2005:
Thanks for the help man, i think ill just use the browser for it tho, no big
[HTC EVO 3D] Rippley05:
I also had to uninstall Facebook. The new version pings my GPS and now the old version causes a wakelock. Friendcaster was nice but stays running in the background using memory :-/. I'm just using the mobile site now..android will prolly never have a decent Facebook app.

**edit. I'm also using a sense rom so it isn't a CM issue
[HTC EVO 3D] cctaylor410:
I've been running go keyboard and loving it.
[HTC EVO 3D] -shift-:
well, that explains my lack of wakelock then. i don't use facebook lol :p

jokes aside though, i keep seeing issues with battery life. for those posting about these issues, please share if you're on valpha2+battery fix and if you've done the following:

drained your battery

charged your battery with the phone off

wiping battery stats is also suggested (optional)

if you've done all of those, check your apps. see which one could be causing unnecessary drain (like facebook for most of you).

I have not had any issues with Swype beta (ver 3.6) swypeinc.com

I haven't tried SwiftKey (edit: on CM7) yet, but I imagine it is also working correctly. Give it a shot if you don't like swype.
[HTC EVO 3D] shymog:
Since most people have been educated on why TaskKillers/App Killers are stupid and a thing of the past (unless you need to kill an app that is specifically misbehaving) but something using a relatively insignificant amount of RAM, unless its excessively using CPU cycles (which is probably isn't), isn't having a significant impact on battery life.

Not trying to pimp FriendCaster again, but the logic here against it is flawed. An app that has any kind of non-push sync will need to remain resident in memory, in some way, to continue syncing.

Also, question here for Toastcfh, or I guess anyone that's spent a lot of time with CM7 lately:

The whole "permissions management" option. When I REALLY got into CM before, on the EVO4G, that wasn't an option yet.

Now that it is, could you suggest a "perfect example" where we could use it to, say, keep running an app without delivering the user info that the dev of that app normally would get?

I've never really read an in-depth discussion on how to use the feature, but I would guess that that option could be really helpful.

Thanks.

the bt fix isn't as big of an issue since it's quickly fixable, just need to update the modules in the new kernel. wimax has bigger issues, such as the java side of things, that need to be updated.

any chance of toast churning out just a update, not really a whole rom, with this quick fix? i have been dying to get cm since i got my 3d and one of the reasons was the ****ty bt htc sticks in their phones.
[HTC EVO 3D] th3taman:
I have to agree with this. I think it's the weak signal and the radio constantly looking for a better signal. I drained 25% of my battery in a weaker signal area last night waiting on my wife in a little over 20 minutes. I was using my phone Twitter/web constantly for the 20+ minutes. Phone got kind of hot too. :(

When at home/work where I have Wifi or even in areas with better signal, it doesn't drain nearly as fast doing the same things. It goes to show that a weak/bad signal can really kill the battery. :(

I drained battery and wiped battery stats. Didn' charge with phone off though. I do think it's a weak signal/radio issue. Not sure if this can be improved upon or not?
[HTC EVO 3D] TrinaryOuroboros:
Not for nothing, I bought this phone, did the temp root, then permaroot, and noticed my battery dropping rapidly using HTC's stock sense +1 update (not latest update) - was running fine for a month and a half, then a couple weeks into permaroot the battery won't hold a charge for it's life. I know this is a questionable post since I haven't actually installed CM7 yet on here, but, I thought I would relay my experience - as this may be hardware, after an overhaul in troubleshooting on my part. I think some batteries are just garbage for HTC EVO 3D, this is a fairly new phone to the market keep in mind. I bought this phone at the same exact time as another user, who doesn't have root/anything, using stock +1 htc sense, and hasn't had a problem with their battery whatsoever.
[HTC EVO 3D] -shift-:
lol it's not always dependent on popularity. you have to think about the technical implementation of it as well, if it will bork other things or not. better to get the big stuff sorted out before you do tweaks of polish, which is what the bt fix essentially is.

heh i'll have to ask toast, but, as it says in the op, this is alpha software. you just have to be patient.

i agree with this wholeheartedly. just like in any phone, weak signal causes more battery drain than anything else. this is after conclusive kernel testing that i've done on many kernels, including cm and the legendary snap kernel. there is nothing we can do, code wise, to improve it. it basically is what it is..
[HTC EVO 3D] raed81:

honestly, the keyboard is just a symptom, but not the underyling cause. the real issue is proper qhd scaling for certain parts of android. i haven't discussed this with toast in depth as he's pretty busy, but i do know he knows of it.
