[Motorola Milestone Android Development] alicheusz:
Gingerbread better manage wake lock-s thus it is better power effcient. I would take careful look at programs you have installed. Any poorly progamed app can wake your phone from deep sleep to often and drain battery. Some programs force itself as service and runs in background to give very little functionality. Android System Info app can shows which app runs as service. These one are most problematic because they runs no mater what. Android can't effectively manage memory and cpu resources of these. Gingerbread roms are better at this.

I can sign on this one too. It is very useful especially car dock and screen off underclock. I have compiled commits related to that feature. Consider implantation of this one

I see new wide profile in 6.3.9, on CM 7.2 it comes with new codecs from defy but I can't see codecs commit on your github vikasbn. You find it reliable these way?
