I'm glad you are getting great results. But it is due to the fact that your phone is never being used.
Android system is only using 5% of the battery. This tells me that you don't surf the internet, or use apps or basically use anything on the phone. 2% in voice calls shows me that you barely talk on the phone.

This is very light use IMO. You have a new toy, use it to the full potential! Go crazy.

Your results are that great because the phone is in standby the whole time.

Re: 44 hours and still counting....

Re: 44 hours and still counting....

I would say I get about 12-14 hours with my definition of moderate usage. 4 hours of gaming 6 hours slacker radio and about 9 emails an hour. I use the oc widget I really think this more just keeps the rogue processes at bay rather than really reducing real power usage.

see, i'd consider 4 hours of gaming and 6 hours of streaming anything... HEAVY use. moderate to me is you're not attached to your phone all day. maybe half of it.

Re: 44 hours and still counting....

I think one of the most important "tweaks" is to make sure your phone is actually sleeping.

If you go Menu...Settings...About Phone....Battery and then compare your Up Time to your Awake Time. There should be a difference.

My current snap shot is Uptime 151:32:17
My current Awake time: 28:43:17

I am not claiming this to be without a charge. It's just since a reset.

I only get 5-10, with OMJ'S ROM, and all the right settings..
