New Kernel/Superior Battery Life

Check out the attached thread!!! Bottom line is these kernels will allow your phone to fully charge overnight and then trickle charge so that you will have a 100% full battery when you take it off the charger. I went an hour of light use before my phone dropped to 97%.

Read here for more info and links to the kernels!!!

[KERNEL][AOSP&SENSE] - Superior Battery Charging. +4.18V off the charger! - xda-developers

If this was already listed...SORRY!!!

I flashed this kernel this morning. Five hours later a few phone calls, light internet and light texting my battery (3500 mh seidio) is at 98% left. I'm impressed

Unfortunately, you have to be rooted to flash a Kernel. If you do get to the point of flashing a rom, definitely flash one of these custom kernels. Your battery life will be incredible!!!

With a battery that big I wouldn't expect anything less.

Ok after a whole day with this kernel (and the extended battery), 90% battery remaining. Incredible. I'll test tomorrow with the standard battery.
