[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Abrasher:
WELCOME to, what I hope will be, THE BATTERY CENTER...

I am tired of searching every Forum, Google, and reading hundreds of posts to find one specific piece of information. WHAT IS THE BATTERY LIFE?

Like many of you, I love this sight and enjoy the work of all of our GREAT DEVs out there. Thanks to XDA-DEVELOPERS and the endless string of names that make this sight...and my phone all that it can be! I attempt new ROMs on a weekly basis, always with 3 things in mind.

1) I want BATTERY LIFE

2) I want Hero(esc) widgets

3) I want Cyanogen stability

DON'T THINK...FLASH

As we all know...we do not always get what we want and so each ROM offers us a little bit of one or the other. I respect this fact but still I believe that if we, as a community, pull together and begin to post useful information on these ROMs, we can begin to educate each other on our experiences. I am sure we have all found ourselves reading the 100 -200 posts on all of our developers threads attempting to find 1 or 2 pieces of information. If you are READING THIS you have likely stumbled upon us searching for the same info. if this is the case...JOIN IN. Let's help each other find the ROM that fits us best. What may not be what you are wanting, may be perfect for someone else. I personally want to find a Hero(esc) ROM with a good battery life. This is not a thread to post questions in. Instead, let's post FACTS. Let's let the info direct people, leave the questions to the professional devs and their own threads. Here is my thought/challenge...Try a ROM. Give it at least a day. Post the following:
