After some tests...

Hi again,

After 2 charge cycles I think I can post my results of battery life here.

During these tests display was kept off as mush as possible, DATA/WiFi/Sync was OFF (except when mentioned), sent around 20 sms, and had 3-4 calls, checked SocialApp, mail.

New apps I installed on 2.3.6_4.5.2-109 DHT25 were CPU spy, Battery Calibrator, BatteryMonitorWidget.

As I mention in previous post, I did this hard calibration method option 8b and I thought it didn't work, but then I saw no gaps between 55% and 49% as well as between 27% and 20% (you can see that bellow and in FirstBatteryCycle.txt):

As you can see, current consumption is really high even I didn't touch my phone at all at that time.

After that I left my phone to completely discharge (which took a while because from 100% to 2% is only 1 day, but from 2% to 0% is like 6 hours:confused:) and charge it over the night.

Next day battery cycle can be seen in SecondBatteryCycle.txt.

As you can see in that .txt until 87% current consumption was really high even if I only used wifi and checked SocialApp for 15min and sent only 2 sms (display was off almost all the time except above mentioned) :eek:

After that current consumption is lovering and went down to -5mA...I did one call and sent one sms and it jumped to -10mA and kept rising, but was pretty much stable around -14mA.

But the weirdest thing begun after 23.00h. As my battery mode is Nighttime saver mode, it should be logical that in those hours current consumption is the lowest, but my phone is starting to live its own life after I went to bed.

Current consumption jumps on -55mA and stay between 35 and 70 :eek:

What the hell is that???

Do I have some ghosts in my machine? :cool:

Of course there is again battery gap but this time a bit smaller (from 53% to 49% and from 26% to 19% wow 1% better :D) so the hard calibration wasn't successful imho.

After that, from 40% to 20% current use is around -50mA ffs!!! Why??? Im not even using my phone, Im writing my project report on my computer with DATA/WIFI/SYNC OFF on my phone.

I let my phone completely discharge again and it took again more than 6 hours to die with 1% of battery :eek:

When my phone is on 1% that is the only time I manage to have -2mA in deepsleep as Walter said he gets.

So things that bugs my mind are:

High current consumption during night time and when in deepsleep/standby. Why is this happening? :confused:

Why do I have -2mA in deepsleep only with 1% of battery left?

How is it possible that 1% is lasting for 6 hours and 98% for only 1 day?

How to seal the gaps? :mad:

Those things happened with MS2Ginger2.1 too. But I had 50 new apps installed so I wasn't sure is this because of the ROM or because of the apps. Now with clean installed ROM I can say something fishy is goin on.

One more thing. When WiFi is ON, I have around -70mA :(

--->So can anyone help me to restore my phone to previous 3 days battery use?

Any ideas?

Walter says he's got -2mA in DeepSleep with this ROM...How ffs? Tips?

Is there any way to perform the cleanest installation possible of this ROM so I can restore my battery life?

BTW...My history of installed ROMs (1st is the latest one):

2.3.6_4.5.2-109 DHT25_Themed_Multilanguage

MS2Ginger2.1

CM7.1 for 15min

CMIUI

MS2Ginger2.0

CMIUI, WIUI...MS2Ginger

Stock 2.3.4

Pays ROM

In my opinion things gone wild since either:

Flashing 2.1 after CM7, even if I did clean install every time.( starting from stock Froyo CEE)

When I was on MS2Ginger2.0 (was before CM7) and when I installed AndroSensor from the Market. That was the 1st time I had really huge battery consumption ( battery died in one day, previously lasted for 3). I don't have that app installed but maybe something left that is draining battery. I did clean installs every time, but who knows. Maybe there is something hidden on SD card or in phone storage
