battery hack built inside of it. I know the title is misleading....but the point of the program is to increase performance, but all i care about is the battery hack to be honest.

Me either, I stopped using that ROM because it gave me by far & away the worst battery life of any 6.5 ROM I've tried (NFSFAN, SAC & Merdins give me double the battery life of the energy ROM)

Really?? Thats hard to believe. That was the main reason I didnt keep this rom. The battery life was just horrible. Ulness he changed something with the latest release. IMO Baseline rom has had the best battery life so far for me.

I can get almost 2 days out of mine depending on how many voice calls I make.

If you are making a few long calls a day that will zap it. Also if you are flirting with 0-1 bars and going between 1x and evdo that will kill it too.

If you have great reception and aren't making long voice calls then who the hell knows... a co-worker with the stock rom gets 1.5days easy, so dunno.

actually will a barebones rom naturally get better battery life? im thinking that if theres nothing running in the background of a laoded rom it might not work like that

Merdinh's Rom gives me about 2 - 2.5 days with moderate use. I can go for about a day and a half max with heavy use.
