NEW official Sprint ROM posted on XDA-dev by DCD

I would have to say that the battery life with the new ROM is incredible. I fully charged last night and I'm a heavy user and as of now I still have 90% left. I've not had ANY of the problems listed so far.

I think this may have to do with the radio, too.

I mention this, because the only portion of the update that I have retained is the radio. After about 45 minutes, I flashed back to a custom rom and I too have noticed a perceptable difference in the amount of battery charge being used.

By this time of the day, I am usually down to between 25% and 35% and i am at 60%.

Best regards,

My battery life is actually much worse. I also flashed for the radio - then back to a custom rom - in 2 hours I lost 60% of my battery with minor use. I tried another rom - same thing. I did notice a sharp drop after I installed SPB Mobile shell - on both roms. So I uninstalled and am testing to see if that makes a diff. If so - back to UL for me i guess...

spb mobile shell 2.x has known battery issues with shell32.exe (i'm not sure if i'm quoting the right process and i'm too lazy to look it up right now). uninstalling it as well may tend to not take care of it in some situations...
