Getting desperate now

This is just a band-aid to a seemingly gaping wound, but have you tried changing:

HKLM\Drivers\BuiltIn\Battery and set PollInterval to Decimal 20000

In KK's rom, he actually has this set to 25000. It's how often your phone polls the battery. Increasing it, means less polls and less system processes, which leads a little bit better battery life (although your battery percentage won't be quite as accurate on a second by second basis but still close enough).

i do the multi battery deal. ive got 5 batteries i keep in my pack at all times. really comes in handy,

I was thinking about GC's roms. Do you guys know if a clean rom would help the battery life any?

Said it in another thread and I will say it again. Some of these batteries are just defective right from the start. One reason I have heard is because of the magnetic backing of the TP. Magnets and batteries are not a good combo and I really wonder why they did this.

The first TP I got was crap. The battery died about 12 hours after a full charge and I wasnt really using the phone that much, just setting up my voicemail and setting message/email preferences etc..Took it back and got a new TP, has worked great. Battery lasts about 36 hours with moderate usage, 24 or so with heavy.

Does no one ever think of just taking the phone back for a new one?

So you're saying that it might be the phone itself that's causing the battery drain?

just face it...off one battery your looking for the impossible.. you wont get the result what your looking for.. your asking too much.. at this point in time do you want a nice vivid color vga touch screen device or do u want a 50dollar phone thall not do anything but last ya 2 days?

take me for instance, i use the hell out of my phone.. 3 emails that pull every 5 minutes, 10,000 texts a month, constant screen wake ups, and i live in a bad coverage area... i know that the way i use my phone causes my shortened battery life.. i just accept it, and look for the next cool trick for my phone like everyone else

youll notice everyone of the things youve tried others have tried with just a tiny bit of success as well... all of us have the same issues with battery life, just learn to accept the fact that u need an extra charger and spare battery at best LOL

it sounds like the phone is bad.

my 2nd tp will last easy a week with no use at all, but only the radio turned on.

my 1st tp will last about a day with minimal use. with heavy txting or a few hours of talking 2+ it'll die and need to be charged at least twice

so its definitely the phone unless you're using it ALL the time.

my settings are turn off back light after 30 seconds, turn off device after 1 min, i use lumos to automatically adjust my backlight level.

i've switched roms recently and did notice better life with silence 3 rom... but i figured it was because the rom runs leaner... so it doesn't have so many instances running thus draning power

anyhow get another phone and keep the batteries. if you wanna sell the after market ones you bought send me a PM and maybe we can work out a decent price
