Battery problems

Tried different kernels and it's getting better, but not as good I'd hoped.

With your HAVS@875 kernel my currentwidget log looks like this:

2011/01/06 12:14:23,-14mA,57%
2011/01/06 12:15:34,-12mA,57%
2011/01/06 12:16:04,-12mA,57%

2011/01/06 12:39:51,-12mA,55%

Turned off wifi @ 12:27, so battery-use is fairly the same.

With the X-mas-CFS-kernel it looks like this:

2011/01/06 12:44:54,-274mA,54%
2011/01/06 12:46:00,-274mA,54%
2011/01/06 12:48:20,-18mA,54%
2011/01/06 12:58:06,-82mA,54%
2011/01/06 12:58:36,-79mA,53%
2011/01/06 12:59:06,-93mA,53%
2011/01/06 13:07:39,-93mA,53%
2011/01/06 13:08:10,-77mA,52%
2011/01/06 13:09:23,-73mA,52%
2011/01/06 13:10:15,-73mA,52%
2011/01/06 13:11:07,-75mA,52%
2011/01/06 13:11:41,-75mA,52%
2011/01/06 13:12:52,-76mA,52%
2011/01/06 13:13:25,-75mA,52%
2011/01/06 13:14:06,-12mA,52%
2011/01/06 13:23:46,-12mA,52%
2011/01/06 13:28:03,-4mA,51%

Turned wifi off @ 13:00, so I don't think this is the solution...

The standard RC6 kernel looks like this:

2011/01/06 11:00:59,-73mA,61%
2011/01/06 11:01:51,-73mA,61%

Went to the supermarket @ 11:15 and came back @ 11:35, meaning the phone uses a lot less energy at 3G than on wifi, how would that be possible?:confused:

With RC1 I have no problems, this is a part of the log from last night:

2011/01/06 02:30:50,-11mA,88%
2011/01/06 02:30:50,-11mA,88%

2011/01/06 02:42:38,-12mA,88%

2011/01/06 02:45:16,-10mA,88%
2011/01/06 02:45:16,-10mA,88%
2011/01/06 02:47:00,-6mA,88%
2011/01/06 02:47:00,-6mA,88%
2011/01/06 02:48:00,-5mA,88%
2011/01/06 02:48:00,-5mA,88%
2011/01/06 02:49:56,-12mA,88%
2011/01/06 02:49:56,-11mA,88%
2011/01/06 02:59:49,-11mA,88%
2011/01/06 02:59:49,-11mA,88%
2011/01/06 03:01:33,-5mA,88%

So why would RC4/5/6 use so much battery on wifi, while RC1 will consume almost nothing???

I guess my best solution is to stay at RC1, but that might not be my favourite solution:D
