Root [Virgin Mobile/Sprint] LS720ZV6 Update & Battery Life

[portezbie]

Just wanted to brag a little because I've been getting awesome battery life since I updated my phone. It's probably mostly just having a freshly installed rom, but either way I'm happy with the results:

63 hours to 15%.

Just a hint - running the battery down to 15% once in a great while isn't too bad, but you get the longest life if you charge it when it gets down to 40%-60%. Constantly running it down to 15% will about halve the battery's life.

It all depends on what you are doing.... scroll down. The phone is rated to last 218 hrs- 9 days- in standby mode.

That's good to know I thought for some reason it was better to let it run down more. I'm not really too worried though a new battery is like 10 bucks. The whole phone only costs like 80 bucks now after all.

I was so impressed with the 63 hours because I was using it pretty normally. Listening to music to and from work, emails, calls texts etc.
