Root So is everyone switching to Liberty?

I'm on Liberty 1.5 with the above patch and the moto extended battery. I followed the directions to charge to 100%, delete batt stats, then drain the battery, then recharge.

With the exception of a 20 minute call, otherwise very light use (installing updates and deleting emails), I'm currently at 60% after 41 hours. I suspect this is similar to what I get on Apex.

Ok, help me here with one more thing. If I install patch do u have to drain the battery, charge it to 100%...etc. For this patch to work or is all that just for doing the testing of te patch t record your results with it?

Also, I have not gotten to the point of knowing hownto mod a theme...will have to work on that, but really like black, white, and chrome.

Charging, clearing stats, draining the battery just makes the battery indicator more accurate.... purely optional.

The patch is installed thru recovery after installing Liberty. See the directions at that link.

I briefly tried a version of the chrome theme and thought it looked better on the computer screen than on the phone. It wasn't there long.
 
Hmmm... it may be tempting to try the patch. I have the extended battery and as i stand now, i'm at 40% remaining and have been unplugged for 20 hours with moderate useage(downloads, browsing forums, 30-40 mins of calls, 30 mins of angry birds, etc...) . What was your battery life like before the patch?
 
Just a guess but I think maybe a 20% improvement, not enough for me to dump Liberty. I alternate between light usage, lasting for many days or heavy use requiring a daily charge. My wife will run it dead playing games, when she has access to it. :D

I going to try the patch and my phone is at 50% right now. How can I force my display to stay on? So, I can drain my battery down.
 
I was running ApeX for a while and then got tons of reboots so i switched to Liberty. I loved Liberty up to the point where i tried to edit a contact and couldn't because of something to do with facebook sync? Its back to ApeX untill it strarts rebooting again then i dont know what.

41 hours?! Do you even use your phone? :P
 
Not much the last 3 days. Like I said, it's either a lot or none.

Now at 50% after 56 hours on extended battery. I figured the battery test was more valid if they didn't see a bunch of angry birds and display used. :D
