I have it downloading from three IMAP accounts (15, 30, and 60 minutes each) and Exchange push. I run SPB Mobile Shell and SPB Pocket Plus in the background, and that's about it for what's always running. My wife, meanwhile, gets amazing battery life. Maybe I should try changing to manual-only for my e-mail and see how big a difference it makes. Then again, I get my extended battery back today, and that always did much better for me.

Actually, what is probably killing it is the "sip off my computer's power throughout the day" bit. With a complex power-drain device like the Titan, battery usage can vary widely and have all sorts of unpredictable effects on the Li-On that you may not find on simpler constant-drain devices. Also, as someone else mentioned in this thread already, "battery performace is reduced as heat goes up, also the "meter" calculates bases on a drain history."
Constantly charging the battery is actually bad, since it creates extra heat and messes up the meter and charging guages, not just the "history-based" one you see on the screen, but even the internal one that tells the battery when to stop charging. The end result is that the charger may not be stopping at the proper point- either overcharging or undercharging, both of which are bad.

The one thing that I noticed makes the biggest difference as far as battery life (and my theory was later confirmed by an electrical engineer), is to actually leave it OFF the charger until I'm ready to leave it for a complete charge. That means don't plug it in the car to top off on your way to work, and don't take it on/off the charger periodically. I leave it until I'm ready to charge it up fully, and like this my battery easily lasts a day and a half.
I only charge my phone when I sleep now, and if I forget to, its still got enough juice for most of the day when I wake up. This is with push mail via exchange, and EVDO coverage.

Well Sprint did sell off "nearly all" of their towers to TowerCo and now lease them.

http://www.engadget.com/2008/07/24/s...to-towerco-fo/

Doesn't give me a warm feeling inside. Now they're looking to sell off the iDEN network.

Why did you post this here? This is for NueRom 2.2 general discussion about the ROM itself....:mrgreen:

Yeah, it doesn't surprise me that they are looking to sell their iDEN... the Nextel deal was dumb on their part. It could have been beneficial, but Sprint has failed to offer enough variety of devices that are able to take advantage of both Sprint and Nextel features.

alright so back on topic....
ive been away from these no2 threads basically since 5069-k. i know theres the blog website up now, but i was wondering if there is any kind of ETA for the nuerom v2.2?

Same here. Been a long time since any major update. Hopefully something good is in the works. No pressure, I'm sure no2chem is busy just like the rest of us. Can't wait!

Re: nueROM 2.2 Bleeding Edge General Discussion Thread
 
the problem (i think) is that it looks like no2 has devoted a lot of his energy in getting the new site up and running, just taking a look at the new site, looks like he had to write a few extensions for the site and several of the NueTools are now avail in both OEM and cab formats (w/ a few updates on some) - amist all this im sure no2 is still working on the next release, but i highly doubt he will give an ETA given past experience...

Has anybody been able to register their account at nueROM.com? The instructions mention clicking the "get token" button, but the only button available is "Generate Account." Clicking that just gives a message that it is checking the system, and then nothing. Anyone else have any luck?

Anyone have the registry string handy that puts the time and date together in the title bar? I remember having a package for this a long time ago but don't know where it is anymore.

Until no2chem releases a new ROM I'm cooking something based off of 20270 with a lot of his customizations and nueTools, and that's one of the main things I'm missing that I need. I'll try to manage without some of his other stuff like the WiFi Switch app until then.

13-Put Date in Title Bar

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Shell]
"ShowTitleBarClock"=dword:00000001
"TBOpt"=dword:00000003
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\nls\overrides]
"SSDte"="M/d/yy "

***** 2 spaces needed aafter the yy ****

fyi no quotes on the sting values if using a reg edit.

This puts the time and date together on two lines in a small font the way no2chem's ROMs have it? I thought this was something different...

I am going to guess yes. When I implemented it, it's exactly what I wanted. When n2c released 5065 and up, it already had it there for me. Except his didn't say AM/PM, mine does. Well, I edited the optional steps for that. So it should be dude.

If I remember correctly Tier was broke in the pre-releases....its been a while though since I ran those....someone else may be able to let you know if it is still broke in that release...if it is check out SASHAMI....very nice

does someone know what WM build was used in 5069-k
I've even searched thru my emails of the 2.1 tread subscription and can't find it.

there is a bug with s2u2 on 69-k rom, but I wanted to report the wm build over on xda..
I am getting ready to flash my main phone to pre-8 as I havn't found any problems with it yet on my 2nd. and battery life is way good,,(highly scientific I know... ;) ) maybe the infamous 6.1 power/mem management is working (more) like it's supposed too..

I had to figure it out myself as it was annoying.

Cool beans. Well I wasn't happy with 5078-k so I'm gonna try another ROM. I love no2chem but these releases seem buggy so I'll try another one and see if it is stable. I love WM 6.1 but I'd love to keep my phone stable.
