im assuming you have wifi, bluetooth, and push mail off right? you could take your battery to a sprint store to make sure it passes all the tests... maybe a bad battery... did you get rid of your original one? have you tried it lately?

Wow, I was getting nowhere near this with Energy ROM. I love the look and feel, but it goes down for me 50% in like 3 hours. What's the "battery polling" that you mentioned?

Also, I've had excellent battery life with Psyki 3 ROM, but it's 6.1. I'm on Energy ROM right now, and was actually about to switch back to Psyki 3; maybe I'll try reflashing Energy first and checking out the "battery polling".

If you have Advance Config: Performances > File system cache = 8mb. File System filter Cache: 131072

Then go to Touch Pro Tweaks make sure 6.2 Phone as modem and data is disabled. and make sure 6.3 data is enabled...that way your data only comes on when you want it to.


The go to your reg editor: HKLM\Drivers\BuiltIn\
choose battery, and look for pollinterval and make sure the decimal value is @ 20000 (default is 5000)

last thing is speedbooster, but thats warez, so I wont post it in here...PM me if you want it. Ive seriously stopped trying to find tweaks or help because i think my battery is absolutely the best it can be now.

FYI i dont use any gps at all, but i do use beejive messenger and twikini a decent amount so i think that evens it out. Also if you use bluetooth a lot, theres probably no hope for you guys
