Root Miui batteru

[ducky1979]

I used to get amazing battery life from miui but after going back to it after a break I'm using 5% an hour, I just took it out of my pocket with 94% left and all I've done is sent 3 texts and loaded phandroid app and its gone down to 88% in literally 10mins, that can't be right can it, I've tried battery calibration app but doesn't seen to have made a difference, I've got set cpu running. Any ideas?

Just had a look at info on setcpu and the kernel is 2.6.37 the non battery saving one but it also states its cyanogenmod? Has anyone ever tried flashing a manu over this? And if I did try what will likely happen if the kernel and rom don't play well together?

ive just decided to try and flash eviollet's manu 1.4 kernel, i did a nandroid before, flashed it, tested wifi and camera and all work fine so far. so fingers crossed this could make my battery last alot longer.

I am pretty happy with the stock kernel that came with MIUI I get couple of days average use out of it so never thought of trying other kernels! You know what they say if it aint broken dont fix it!!

Well I'm glad I have tried the manu one as I've now been unplugged almost 7 hours, sent a few texts and web browsing over WiFi and I'm still at 78% so happy up to now.
