Battery life seems improved with Gingerbread

Not close to resembling a scientific measurement but it seems to be better. After a few more workdays under its belt this week I will be more certain.

Re: Battery life seems improved with Gingerbread

I hate to be so optimistic but I'm at 30%. Usually I think i would have hit the 10% level at least by now. 2:43pm and I pulled it off the wall charger at 5:30am. Hope this is typical !

Re: Battery life seems improved with Gingerbread

unplugged at 4:45 am and usually dead (below 10%) when I get home around 3 pm.

After update, it is now 4:45 pm and I'm at 25% better for me so far.

Re: Battery life seems improved with Gingerbread

Yeah it does make a little difference. I'm very happy with it. I do everything possible to save battery.

One of the big contributing factor I believe, if you go into your battery use, it used to be cell standby was pretty much always at the top, now its at the bottom, well done Sprint and HTC.

Re: Battery life seems improved with Gingerbread

I went back to decks rom mainly because of the poor battery life on the new release.
