I notice a battery drain like there's no tomorrow. I was at 70 percent and went all the way dead in 6 hours. Changed roms and tested same thing running nothing different and my phone is at 90 percent after 7 and a half hours later from being pulled from charger . Don't know whats causing it but i cant use it as a daily rom right now.

I can't remember of any ROM causing a battery drain. It's probably some setting. Check to make sure that you don't have battery on Max brightness, bluetooth isn't always on, data and WiFi aren't always on. Those are items that usually cause the battery to drain quicker than normal.

Scott,
If you read this, please let us know your status....evacuated, no power, or just cleaning up from the flood. We're concerned.

I had checked everything to begin with made sure nothing was running in the background wifi bluetooth beam everything i turn off trust me when i say nothing was on at that time. And yes i hard reset the phone after flashing. But it just ate up the battery just weird i mean weird never had this problem with any roms. Still doing this

. But running an older rom from SSK and all good just scared to go back to that rom.

I'm sure this isn't it, but has your carrier signal strength diminished at all?

Nope full bars i live by two major cities trust me i have to go under a 50 story building too drop my signal. It was at its max when it was dropping and i usually run windows messenger and exchange at the same time and get two days worth of battery. That time i didn't even run messenger or exchange and it still went bye bye. just a weird case i guess but i wont venture to flash until i create the ultimate rom i have been working called Aldo's WTF happened Rom. Ofcourse beta.
