Root CM7 battery life

I used the app off the market to clear my batt stats on CM7, and it is much better. I have to admit i was unfair to CM7 because when i flashed CM6 i cleared the batt stats but failed to do it when i flashed CM7. User error again. That's what i get for blaming the rom. Lesson learned.
 
  • Haptic Feedback: Settings->Sound settings->Haptic feedback
    Haptic feedback is the vibration you feel when you press softkeys or on certain UI interactions. The default setting is 'On'. However, disabling vibration will improve battery life.
  • Vibration Setting: Settings->Sound Settings->Vibration intensity
    The Vibration intensity should be set to less than 50% to reduce battery drain when making touch screen selections. It is only applicable when the 'Haptic Feedback' option is enabled.
  • Audible Selection: Settings->Sound Settings->Audible selection
    The Audible Selection Setting enables sounds when making touch screen selections. To improve battery life, turn it off.

Mine went from 100 to 30 in 2.5 hours. with 2 calls (less than 30 second each).
Also, I do have a problem with camera. It says "Connection to camera failed", anyone else have the same problem?

The camera is still sensitive. I can use Google Goggles but after I take the picture it freezes and didn't do this on stock. The same thing goes for barcode scanners. They all say it cannot connect to camera. To fix this you need to restart your phone, and everytime you get that message.

It is because there is no auto focus, that is why these types of apps will not work. Huawei managed to trick the stock rom into thinking it had it.

I remember trying to use a barcode scanner while I was stock. IT would VERY RARELY actually catch the barcode. Instead of freezing up like it does now, It just killed my battery attempting to "Focus" it. :X

Make sure you have the latest build. Camera has been fixed for a while. If you do have the current, reflash.

I just updated my phone for the latest build of 09132011, and everytime i try to use goggles i get the error "Cannot Connect To The Camera" and will have to reboot. Did the camera update get skipped over on accident on the latest build?

Camera works, but camera apps still cause problems. This will probably never be fixed.
