I must flash the modem just like I flash a rom/theme right??

Go Shred.......the Real Froyo Boy............ The KB5 works well on Bi winning

I hoped that flashing kb5 on my phone would increase my battery life but it still lasts only about 3 hour tops on moderate use..

Wth 3 hours?? What are you doing on your phone? You probably need to recondition your battery or get a new battery, by the sounds of it tho your battery is prlly fried

Wut if it isnt a new battery that u need? Unless u tried all other options u can do with ur current battery. Say go for it

On Froyo 2.2 and 2.2.1, you should be getting ~20 hours with moderate use. That is, the screen should be on CONSTANTLY for about 3-3.5 hours of those 20 hours.
On CM7 and MUIU you should be getting ~10-15 hours with moderate use.
You got something wrong here. Go to the market and search "OS Monitor". It's a program that is like the task manager on Windows. Open it and order processes by CPU usage. See if anything is constantly running and using a lot of your CPU. If so, uninstall/kill it. If everything is fine and CPU usage is low, buy a new battery.
Hope that helps

Super IO kernel

I hear it has excellent battery life. And im on stock froyo no bloatware with a jk2 modem, I just want to see good battery life. Also. Could I flash any kernel over any rom? Or is there 2.1 and 2.2 specific roms? Help!!
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA App
Yes,there are different kernels for 2.1 and 2.2,but JK2 is 2.2,and so is the superio kernel. You should be ok with flashing the kernel,but just in case,make a nandroid backup,worst case scenerio just odin back to jk2,then restore nandroid backup (nandroid doesnt backup/restore the kernel).
not really liking this kernel.. my battery drained 28% overnight.. that has never happened with any other kernel..
I went from Saturday @ ~4pm until Sunday @ ~9pm
This was with full GPS while driving, listening to podcasts, watching videos for nearly two hours, and general calls and webbrowsing.
I still had ~20% battery left.
I pulled the phone off the charger this morning, and will run it dry to see what my "normal" uptime would be, and will post it tomorow.

well it seems like it is the kernel.. i went from DoW 1.4 to this and my battery life went down instead of improving. i dont run any widgets and dont have anything running in the background. so i dunno
Odin JFD, root, Axura 2.1ve, SuperIO kernel... Super flake.
With the kernel it takes at least two minutes to get a cellular data lock on the phone. Without it, it takes less than a second for 3g or 2g to lock in.
While it does significantly speed up the phone, I will use a lag fix instead until the "real" fixed kernel comes out.
Honestly, I have never had much luck with Eugene kernels. Every kernel I have tried has had something flaky going on. Without exception so far.
To be fair, it could be the ROM I am using. I will try another ROM just to check it.
if you are switching from 2g to 3g frequently, your battery might get sucked dry due to the radio issues mentioned in my post above.
I suggest you pay attention to what the radio (H/3g/Edge/GPRS Icon) is doing. Might not be related, but I could see it possibly draining the battery.

I'm running the same set up! Flashed this kernel yesterday. Battery is amazing! I wiped the batt stats to do conditioning last night at 8. I was trying to drain the battery as quick as possible so I had gps and wifi on and I played youtube videos and media hub trailers non stop till it died finally at 130. So streaming with the screen on the entire time I got 5 and a half hours. Pretty impressive if you ask me.
Do I need to disable oclf before I flash this kernel? I'm using nero 3 right now with oclf.

It is based off of the stock Kernel, however Eugene in all his brilliance fixed all the battery drain and greatly improved the IO. Hence why there is significantly improved battery life along with no lag.
On typical use, web browsing, messaging, phone calls, my phone easily lasts about 2 days. Truly amazing work

The new bionix or the old one?? what do you think??

Hey guys im wondering for the one's who have tried bionix v the old version and the new one, can you give your feedback about it???
in my opinion i dont see a great change of it. and i even think that the old version works better i dont know how about you guys???
Had bionix-v and flashed 1.2 yesterday night. So far I don't see anything different. For that matter, I haven't seen any real changes since Nero 5 which I thought was a great ROM. I just flash the newest because - well - because I can.

Lol yeah me too!! but the Nero rom is the one called nero-5-voodoo??? i have that zip file and never use it.
For me just having the Percent of batterly life number bigger was worth the 2min. it took to flash.
There was no real cosmetic changes just some "behind the scene" changes. Getting geared up for 2.2.1 i guess. I like the no wipe option now although I still wiped.
Only difference I see so far is my GPS isn't nearly as good. Before I start a "GPS sucks" war I am going to re-flash and test again. I want to do a few battery cycles before I flash to see about battery life as well.
If you are a cosmetics type flasher I would just stick with V. If you are an avid updater and ROM whore such as myself then flash away.

the old bionix rom has excellent battery life. I use a combination of bionix v1 with the kb1 modem. Standby battery is amazing. 28 hours with moderate usage (xda, engadget, texting, web browsing, etc). So I am hesitant to switch, I would recommend keeping the old one until 2.2.1 kernel

Nahhh I kept it the same whatever the kernel was before. And that 28 hours went down to about 22 but that is still amazing.. the standby time is awesome, thats what gives the battery life. If you use it constantly it will drain but if you use it like a normal human being it will be perfect for you.

Yea dude no problem. Hey if you come up with a good combo that helps with the battery life while the phone is awake, pm me and let me know your ideas. And so far bionix v has been doing wonders for me but axura has a kb1 based rom out and I can only imagine it will be good. I choose to have bionix because I DESPISE axuras theme.. lol
Ps. To test your battery life just download the battery left widget and check it every once and a while. Once you use your phone (from 100% to 0%) the readings from the app will be fully accurate and can tell you how much battery you have left and how long. The battery accuracy is set as you lose battery, so the more you use it, the more accurate. So to test your combos use this widget to determine battery life and which ever one has the most hours, should be the best. It will take a while but it will be worth it lol

Nero 5 v Bionix V
I can only compare Bionix V to Nero 5.
Both are very close. Battery is much better on Bionix 5. Was using KA7 modem on Nero 5. Just installed KB1 modem on my Bionix 5. Will have to see how that works out. So far I can tell that I get a better signal and faster D/L and U/L.
I am getting lower Quadrant scores on Bionix (1300)compared to Nero (1500) on stock cpu not overclocked.
Overall I am happy with what I got so far.

Battery draining problem

Hi. I installed the cyanogenmod 7 on my LG p500.I love it verymuch.but my battery is draining so heavily.is there any way to fix it,?
Sent from my LG-P500 using XDA App
I used Juice Defender and it helps.
Sent from my LG-P500 using XDA Premium App
undoubtedly either android 2.3.3 or cyanogen mod eats battery more than usual, in their official builds (nexus one for 2.3.3 / htc desire for cyanogen mod 7)
and you're prolly using unofficial builds and there might be more battery drain than usual.
you should have considered this and i dont think any of the developers didnt told you on their posts.
of course apps like juice defender or battery doctor etc. are good
but if you hate ur liberty being controlled by those dumb apps (i do), just control your data/wifi usage well, make suitable overclock profiles, or buy an extended battery physically.

yep, i had been reading that kind of comments about franco's rom.. i think i have to try it, all the ppl always say wonderful things about this rom and im really tempted to use =D
So here goes...
Well i realise this with every rom I use. Standby gives 1% per hour. I know not as good as most, but yea. However, with wifi on and browsing for 40 minutes, its already 8%. It aint really enough for me since I spend so much time here.

So far I used
- stock ROM: bad performance, batt - dont remember
- megatron with its kernel (2.2): absolutely best batt, 0-1% of battery drain per overnight (wifi off, data off, gps off); good performance; might be unstable
- LOL 1.4.2 with its own kernel mix (2.2.2): fair battery life and performance
-devoid and void with franco kernel (#14 it was then): not so much satisfied with batt. or performance in live or in quadrant test (sorry franco, i could not understand why it is so...)
- jince : very smooth ROM for everyday use; batt is little bit worsethat Megatron or LOL (5-9% overnight, all off; however ither reported better batt. life).
My choise for battery - Megatron v1 (with it's kernel)
PS. currently testing megatron ROM with Franco 18.1 kernel. Will post results.
Megatron rocks but its not as visually appealing.

Best battery life is subjective and based on usage, mostly linked to screen on time and usage of mobile data and wifi as long as you don't have rouge apps keeping the phone awake.
Your best best is to try a few of the roms from the dev section.

I've been using lightning rom v5 since last yesterday, and phone was fully charged over night. However in terms of battery life is has been pretty crap for me. Hardly used the phone today and battery life is down to 43 percent already. Only made a few txts and received a couple of calls. Gonna be trying villianrom and cognition over the next few days. Hopefully I see a big difference.

Could you be any less specific?? There's a difference between battery life as in how long can a fully charged battery last, and how many years can you use a battery before it's trash. And the OP and you are clearly talking about a different "battery life".
The OP just wants to last longer with one charge cycle and flashing a ROM has no affect whatsoever on that duration. It will (or could) however affect the total life of your battery, because battery stats are wiped and the battery needs to "re-learn" itself. But that is like 1 month shorter on a total life of 4 years.....scary Like we will walk around with our S2's for 4 years

Best ROM for battery life?

Well Ive been running CleanROM DE for a while now and I like it. Problem is the battery life is terrible for me. I've tried everything and I just cant improve it. I get about a 10 percent drop in an hour with light to medium usage. If the screen is on I can literally watch he bar drop.
what other ROMs can I try that seem to have good battery life?

I have CleanROM DE 1.4 and it's the best battery life I've had, which leads me to believe you should be looking more for a different kernel. I've tried upwards to 10 different ROMs. I'm using the 3.13xx kernel he posted in Post #2 of that ROM thread.
Also, just a note, upgrading the firmware helped tremendously. Not just using the patch, but taking the dive and flashing the RUU. My phone got better with both battery life and heat.

Is there something that can check the health of the battery? what MAH is left and things like that

Battery Monitor Pro is great. Even logs all that data and has nice graph. It also allows you to swap batteries and also the battery data with it so each spare battery you have is correctly calibrated.

Ive done all that. Im on the newest JB hboot and running the 1.13 kernel, hasn't helped at all. Heat was never really an issue.
Have you tried recalibrating the battery? It sounds like you have a bad battery or something.

I hope you don't mean recalibrating by clearing battery stats in recovery, cause that does absolutely nothing for battery life.

Im cheap and I try to avoid apps that I need to pay for. The free version of that looks like its peg legged.
