And here is the reg edit:

HKLM\Software\HTC\PHONE\FaceDownMuteRing
change to 0

Make sure to soft reset
i've received multiple PMs asking for my report since i said i would try this and report back 2 days ago, so here it is:

after a day and a half of testing battery life with this reg edit, i can confirm that it does in fact drastically improve the life of the battery on this ROM. yesterday i noticed at least a 2 fold improvement in life and i used the phone a lot more as well. anyone else finding the battery drain on this ROM unacceptable, make this change and be amazed....

i vote for this reg setting in the next build. if you agree please voice your opinion to increase the chance that NRGZ notices and includes this simple fix. also, please thank Comstar in his original post of this fix.

to all the fanboys who are saying "TP battery sucks", "get a flip phone", "carry chargers with you everywhere", etc. you really need to chill out...this ROM causes necessary drain in its default settings.....this is not a bash, just calling it like it is. you may be able to accept crappy battery life as you sit at your computer all day with your phone plugged in next to you and post worthless replys on internet forums, but some of us actually like/need to use our WIRELESS devices WIRELESSLY....
