Sorry for posting this here but I'm not allowed to post in developer forums yet.
I'm using milk's rom beta 6.5, everyone says it has a great battery life on the official forum. I've tried clean install, used franco's tweaks, wiped battery stats but still I have a huge battery drain. Voice calls, phone idle and standby states consume a very high amount of power.
What could be the problem?

CM7 Battery Drain
Do you leave the data, GPS & Wi-Fi on? Just switch it off if you are not using it.
Adjust the display brightness to the lowest.
In the mobile network settings, click use only 2G networks.
Uncheck background data & auto-sync in accounts & sync settings if you are not going to access the Market or you don't need to constantly sync your accounts.
Do you play a lot of games?
A lot of factors contribute to battery drain.
Everything except background data is disabled when not in use. I don't use the phone a lot. The irritating thing is battery drain in idle mode, standby mode n voice calls. Wifi uses very little battery when on. I thought it could be that my radio is using a lot of battery to catch signal but this was not the case with earlier versions of the rom n I haven't changed my location.

after heavy use it last 1 day and moderate 1.5 day which is not bad though not using franco tweaks idle mode might show 50%< but it last for the time i mention just go into settings and disable google service,market,dsp manager when not in use
I always do that. Still it drains battery when idle.

Do you have the bug with the status bar, who is running in the background when you charge the phone?? It is loading the cpu but don't know why, I have the cm7 2.3.4 - 6.5 for one week and I still didn't manage to see the batery drainage sorry for bad english, hope you understand.
No bugs that I know of.

I've been using mik's cm7 for some days now, but don't see any severe battery drain. On idling (no data connection), it's pulling about 1% per hour. Not as good as the stock ROM, but I can live with it.

(Idle mode) 1% per hour is like 100 hours of battery (4days) and u call it Not as good.

Remember to wipe battery stats and let your phone get used to the ROM it will usually get better

If the stock ROM battery drain was <1%/hr then 1%/hr is, quantitatively, "not as good".
I run wifi on when available (Tasker), no mobile data (prepaid), GPS on when needed (Tasker), and BT on all the time. Here are the idle drain stats I got with the stock 2.2 ROM:
Stock ROM out of the box: 3.3% / hr.
Stock ROM with SetCPU OnDemand underclocking: 0.8% / hr
Same apps, config, and use as above:
Mik stable ROM: 6.8% / hr
Mik stable ROM, BT off: 4% / hr
I also tried testing with SetCPU onDemand profile for underclocking, but the numbers varied 2-8% / hr with no apparent pattern. I am not convinced that SetCPU will be helpful in this setup.
If the stock ROM battery drain was <1%/hr then 1%/hr is, quantitatively, "not as good".

You forgot, that the xda developers often aren't "really developers" but users with some or more experience of how to grogramming a language like C,C++ or Java and with some knowledge of how to do some things more with a smartphone.
this is the choice for us - we can wait for a manufacturer to deploy new software for us, or we help our self. and there for, that we help us self - the quality and quantity of most roms here @xda is very good i think, so many people here should say "it doesnt matter" instead of cry in many threads "help me, i cant play with this device as a playstation" or "help me, i must recharge my battery after 1,5 days".
sorry for that words, but its my opinion.
It's like: dial xda for customer care.

actually is mik_os and not milk
secondly I'm using mik_os's ROM 6.5 and I saw this battery draining issue happening after charging - they know it's a bug in CM7 now and will get fixed
So at the momment this is what I do after 100% charge - reboot the phone
Some guy in development area said that he restarts some application that deals with notofication bar - probably the ADW but for me it easiest to reboot phone and put in my pocket
Hope it helps

Not possible by someone who actually uses there phone. I never thought I was a heavy user but seeing replies like above I have to be past the definition of heavy user. With my extended battery I could get 2.5 days on a single charge.
Im also having battery drain with bionix newest rom. Nothings changed in my day-day usage. probably flash another modem or something.
I think I might switch to stock froyo if things don't get better. Or just order a new battery. Because it just drops like a rock. And im using watchdog but it doesn't really help that much. Or could someone with experience with battery drain guide me on how to stop it from happening?

Yes I got it from t-mobile but I have not used stock long enough to see whether it was just a rom issue. I have only flashed team whiskeys roms and they seem to kill my battery. Nero v3 was the best but still wasn't great. I leave around 6:30 in the morning and maybe use the phone to get on xda, engadget, facebook, etc for about 1 hour, But my battery drops like a rock when I do this. And ever since bionix v it has only gotten worse. From that one hr of usage it drops 40 percent. Is hsdpa that big of a battery-killer? Because on wifi it seems to do a little better. Idk if this is just a network issue or what? Like right now it dropped 2 percent just from typing this up. brightness is less than half and everything is set to manually refresh. Wth?

Had terrible battery life as well with bionix v. Double checked to see if anything was running in the background and reconditioned my battery. Even then I was still getting atrocious battery life.

Almost everyone does it differently around here, this is what worked for me.
Full charge your battery, wait for it to drain (reach minimum 5% or better yet wait for the phone to turn off), now charge continuously for 100%. Unplug then plug the phone to the charger again (its not yet fully charged) after it reaches 100% this time boot into recovery go to advanced and wipe battery stats.
Try the "spare parts" app, it tells which app is eating your power up.
thats exactly the same thing that happened to me.... so i'd recomend you to flash a new rom TRIGGER once you flash it download a kernel from the vibrant developement and its called TIGERS BLOOD and the rom comes with an app called BATTERY CALIBRATION and just lije they told you.. wait for your fone to be fully charged and open that app and theres goin to be a button that says START CALIBRATING and now when i go to school till i get out my fones battery life its only 73% and i play games in it so if i dudnt play games at all it'd be like 80% or 85% of battery life....

I reccomend a very easy fix which contains two parts. Recondition the battery usin battery calibration app in market. Do this at 0% and 100% be sure to let the phone fully charge and die with no interruption.
Next get setcpu from the market and set it to powersave. Those two things should leave you around 95% battery. ROM shouldnt matter as much with these settings. Also cut off your data, wifi, bluetooth, anything your not using.

Have you tried AURA 1.1.1 ROM?
I don't know if you even want to give any other ROM a shot, but I have used Alien ROM # 2, too many issues and was not patient enough.
Flashed AURA 1.1.1, after that 2 issues with my battery are fixed, one is the battery life, I usually get around 15 hours from fully charged at 8 AM when I leave for work, so I usually charge just once a day. Second issue with Alien was my phone was overheating like a frying pan.
It just happened with any other ROMs I have tried so far but with AURA maximum temp I have seen on my phone is not more than 38 Degree C. With other ROMS it was just above 38 all the time.
If you don't mind flashing different ROM, try it.
Basically what I do is load into CMW
Wipe Battery Stats
Wipe Dalvik Cache
Wipe Cache
Wipe Data
Install ZIP
Reload Phone and use it for a bit
Process the battery stats wipe cycle twice
Battery is just normal now
Good Luck
It seems to me to be obvious issues with GB right now..which is disappointing because I was expecting it to get better. I went from 16+ hours of usage (with 2-4hrs of onscreen time) to about 8-10. I've went from Orange 2.3.4 to CherriPi now to Alien #3 with both the 1.1 o/c kernel as well as the stock kernel..with no improvements. I did notice a slight improvement when I turned the Social Applications from Push to 60mins..but still am nowhere near where I was with Froyo (yes..I've tried xploited's tips as well). I know its not my apps or configurations because none of that has changes since 2.2..

Can I ask real quick some questions? First off what do you have running as far as processes, cause for instance if Tune in Radio is left on running in background it KILLS my battery life. If I forget to exit it. Also, did you freeze any bloatware that alien didn't? example. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=972459 Also, what kernel are you using? Are you overclocking? Over / undervolting? Just trying to get a better idea of what's up unless I missed it in a previous post. But I think I read em' all.
@phalanx I haven't frozen anything. I'm using the last Alien full build including kernel. The only apps I have installed are facebook, google+, and XDA premium app. The thing that is supposedly killing my battery is phone idle. It's doing slightly better today than it has been. It says it's got about 10 hours so far. But it's still nowhere near the 12-16 I used get.

What are your other settings, the GPS settings should be off, along with Bluetooth, and wifi unless your using it.

The way I do it is to drain the phones battery till it dies, then charge it when the phone is off. Wait till its done, then turn on the phone to see if your at 100%. That should do the trick, but a better method is by a member with the name of omegared has a guide for battery calibrating. I recommend finding the guide. Its in the general section of the x10 section. Hope this helps.

Calibration is simple
Charge your phone to 100%
Switch off
Boot into xRecovery, goto advanced options, wipe battery stats, yes
Reboot
Pull the battery with charger connected
Reinsert after 10secs
Note that battery is now at 88%
Again charge to 100%...
Repeat for 4-5times.

Yea I'm using doom's o/c kernel which 1.2ghz. You may use software like setcpu or cpu master etc.. using the "set on boot" option. It will automatically set it to your desired speed upon boot up.
What have you encountered as your maximum battery life?
If the figure is hmmm too much, tell us what you used!
what do you mean? maximum standby time or usage? is it the milivolt? please elaborate
Around 1½ day i believe. But normally ill charge it at night where it has around 20-30% left

Usage: Music(+DSP), SMS, a few calls, Web browsing (2G/3G/Wifi). Dont really play any games but I do watch musicvideos sometimes which is takes around 15minutes.

My battery life is ATROCIOUS. I can get about 5-6 hours solid use and then it's game over. Granted though, I use the market and web browser all the time and my CPU is consistently sitting at 902mhz (performance) =S

Lmfao yeah that happens. But you can get Power Saver form the market. It really works. What it does is clock down the processor depending on what profile you set the app to.
Even though, today I haven't used the phone much and it's been discharging from 16 hrs and it's still at 60% (with Power Saver turned off). I've only used it for light texting today and that's it. 3G is what sucks the battery dry. Sometimes I use Edge only (2G) and the battery lasts me a whole day and more. The other day it lasted me a whole 24 hrs and it was still at about 19% left. I'm guessing the battery can last long or short depending on the usage.

But he didn't use it. Still it's a big drain at around 1%/1.5h, comparing with the x10 mini pro with 970 mAh battery which drains at 1%/3.5h....
Cyanogenmod for ace isn't that optimized for battery life.

With Juggernaut Rom, brightness turned down and web/wifi off I can literally get like 3 days almost if I'm not texting heavily. As soon as I turn internet on I'd say a max of 12 hours. The best battery life I ever got out of it was BeastMod, CPU underlocked to just 1ghz and brightness turned down. Even with web on, still got me almost 2 days - sync off.
