...The greatest effect from the ROM are services and process that make the phone wake up when we don't intend the phone to be doing anything but quietly waiting for a call or the next message. If you suspect a ROM power drain issue, give some context to the chef. Is the phone waking up when it shouldn't? Can a bump of the button cause the backlight to turn on? When a email or text comes in does the phone wake up and the backlight turn on? Does the execution of a internet push page make the phone turn on? Are you running S2U2 and do you have wake up on message turned on the the S2U2 settings, this will cause battery drain because the backlight turns on. BTW Lumos Wizard helps this because if the phone wakes up in your pocket or belt case the light sensor will be blocked. Lumos will assume you are in a dark room and set the backlight to minimum levels until the light changes.
