Root battery life

[graywolferis1]

yes another battery thread

I followed grdlocks guide and now I kind of wish I hadn't, I'm using helix and I have noticed a decrease in signal strength
would like some input, my phone doesn't even last a day anymore

I've noticed overall shorter battery life also

all depends on which ROM you are using, i am getting better battery life now on 2.1 than i did with 1.5 i am using aloyious v6+my addons

yeah having zero battery issues with aloysius. If anything, I'm was getting better battery life until I dl'd 3d pong. Now I can't stop playing it!

Another one here on aloysius rom v6 with great battery life. Perhaps the app that comes with the rom autokiller is whats helping us? I think spencer suggests optimum preset for better battery life over on xda.

could be. I find it keeps my phone running blazing fast as well. Not really a task killer per say, but more of a memory allocator.

so glad I switched, playing music and browsing internet on the bus lost just 1 percent battery
