Root All Things Battery

[shaggylouie]

The Eris and it's battery. Is it really that complicated? Please share your knowledge and experiences surrounding your battery(s) - charging techniques, extended batteries, ROM's, overclocking etc...

I would like to share my experiences/advice, but I still can't figure it out.

Keep the clock speed down when the screen is off (if overclocking)
vanilla roms get better battery life (less crap running)
delete stock apps that run (amazon, etc.)

I'm running EE 3.0. Can I delete the stock apps?

As long as you are rooted, you can delete stock apps. You have to be careful what you delete though, some apps depend on others. I've deleted Amazon MP3, Peep, Teeter, Facebook, Twitter, QuickOffice, Mail, a bunch of widgets, and Stocks.

Be sure to make a nand backup before whacking stuff. I would also recommend downloading Titanium Backup to do the uninstall. The alternative is to get RootExplorer and delete the apk's yourself.
