But with such small memory usage i don't think it would be too much on the battery, but who knows? Too bad there is not a program out there that will show what is pulling what on your battery.

Thanks. I beleive the original credit should go to MrObvious on this one. I cannot prove it helps battery life, but it seems to have helped me when I delete it from bootlauncher soo.....

I do a fair amount of computer work and coding, so my assumption is that Opera would not be loaded into memory at boot unless it was doing something (just making it appear to load faster when you click on it is not sufficient justification to load it on bootup). With that said, I am not sure what Opera is doing in the background, but I can write an app that has 3 or 4 lines of code and is less than 1K in memory that just checks connectivity with the network once per second and it will absolutely kill your battery.

Delete the entire Opera9 key.

Then it will not load when the phone first loads and will not run the entire time. Some say this will make the internet a little slower but I have not had any issues with it.

Many people have consistently vouched for this all over the forum. I've tried it myself and it definitely seems to help battery life pretty significantly. If you don't believe it, I encourage you try it yourself and wait till your jaw drops I usually delete this tree right after flashing so it's no issue but I think this would be a great inclusion to the ROM itself so everyone can get that benefit right out of the box.

This one is a must have!

I notice that on the Beta Mighty 5 the screen dims when you lock the phone. Does any one else know how to make it stop doing that or at least make it a little brighter?

alright so im on MR5 right now and im happy, its great, a couple things though anyway to make the red highlighting and menus like the ones on R3born where it looks like tf3d, and also when i get an incoming call i get this popup call incoming box notification sometimes, thanks

You can use advanced config to change that. Look under screen and you can change the backlight lock level. If you look in the files for this thead you should be able to find advanced config. If not let me know and I will repost it.

Thank you for that. I want to take a second and thank everyone who has helped me. I think sites like this rock and I just want to return the appreciation by helping whomever I can. Lets keep this site and especially this thread rocking!

I'm not sure why that Opera9 key is even cooked in TBH. But I'm still running solid on MR5. I think we can safely say it's not beta anymore. (Once those registry edits are fixed of course like Opera9.exe).

Also it seems like battery life is better than MR4.
