Re: Poll: How Long Does Your Battery Last?

I don't know if it's a windows mobile thing or what, but any one rom doesn't seem to stand out (for me at least) on superior battery life span, maybe i'm missing something but here's what i do for my loads..
turn off:
auto - GPS, RSS, weather, pocket express, etc updates
mail - (both yahoo, hotmail) 4 hrs check
disable - beam, wifi, wireless, etc, etc
battery - lower screen brightness to almost nothing, disable the auto adjust

still only getting barely through a day
what I do know is that my bldg that I work sucks big time for signal, so the switching is almost constant and I have done the 1x only only switch and it only gets a bit better. Most of the time, I try not to use it at all (few texts (10 is pushing it) is about all i can manage or it dies before I can reach a charger)

that's my take but is the phone just that bad for battery or am i missing something

- For those that are worse, check those settings, might help you some, but there has to be more.

- Oh and on MR6 (used MR 4, Juicy, ATR, fufu, calc's, int, and a few others, all about the same though)

dunno, maybe that's just as good as it gets
