Root Apex RC4 killing battery

First of all, thank you fabulous for the Apex Rom, its the best all around. When I was using RC3 the battery life was beyond amazing. I mean I would last 12 hours on a bx6 battery. After I upgraded to RC4 on two phones, both phones die within 3 to 4 hours with minimal use. When I go to settings and check out battery use, the first item is always phone calls, even though I barely talked on the phone. I alreayd tweaked my phone for best battery life too.

let me know if anybody else is experiencing this.

Going back to RC3 after 2 weeks of use
 
Weird. Apex had great battery life when I was running it. Did you try calibrating the battery?

Or install Watchdog to see if there is an app hosing battery life.
 
Yah, one of the first things I do is calibrate the battery, that little program works like a charm.

The weird thing is that its the same exact settings because all I did is upgrade from RC3 to RC4, nothing changed. And I upgraded on two different phone at the same time. Both phones were dying so fast.
 
it has to be something with your phone setup. Apex RCx has great battery life. Try loading everything up fresh and not using data from a backup. And do a good wipe of everything before you get started.
