Don't know how fast extremely is.. I used to get 12-14 hrs. on Simply honey with moderate usage (25+ calls, text , few hours on the web and very little wi- fi) If you aren't getting that recalibrate as the post said above.

Also, this is a Gingerbread ROM so the battery life isn't going to be as good as Froyo anyway.

Or wait one day and flash the latest version of Simply Honey built on JVP.

If you have Simply Honey on it then you are rooted and free to flash anything. The first thing to do is go onto settings/about phone and see what version you have and then decide if you want to stay with a custom rom or just put it back to stock. There are numerous tutorial threads here and plenty of people willing to help you out.
Good luck.

Calibrate your battery!
- There seems to be a safety feature in Gingerbread or Samsung's version of Gingerbread that causes the battery to start draining when it reaches 100%. That said to calibrate your battery properly you must do it as soon as the battery full pop up appears.
- Download the app found here http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1024867 and follow the on screen instructions.
>>>>>>>>>>
The app referenced up there is really simple to use and works great.
Here's the SH thread with more instructions if needed - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1021383.

I am on Blitzkrieg Gingerbread and my battery only lasts about 6 hours when I am not connected to a WiFi. I use the re calibrating app every morning, or when I have to recharge to 100%, and it does not seem to be helping any!!! I really do not want to downgrade to Froyo, but if that is what its going to take to get 14+ out of my battery, then I guess I will. Any suggestions?????

get to 100%
use a file manager
head to data/system
delete batterystat.bin or somtehing similar its at the top.
Delete that.
It has been said over and over again that on CM7 doing that helps, and it actually does, i never asked why just doing it helps.
I'm thinking its because its a 2.3 rom, buttttt idk.
just do it. nike.

I will give it a try and see what happens. Should I do this every day or just for the first couple? FYI...I have been unpluged for 3 1/2 hours and I am down to 53% and I have not done ANYTHING on the phone, other then getting a few email notifications!!!

I had the same problem on an older version of CM7 (and older version of honey). I went ahead and flashed the newer version, changed my modem and kernel, charged and re-calibrated...try that.
it worked great for me, went from 6hrs to about 10hrs!

Do this for about 2 days.
Also you may want to try out KB5 modem.
GREAT signal, GREAT battery life.
Everyone that tries it usually has had a good experience with that modem.

My battery is just about dead, 6% to go. I will charge it and delete that file and go from there.
I am on KB5 with the bullet-jvp kernel. Would charging, at night, with the phone off be the best way or should I just leave it on?

Rom recommendations?

i'm a noob to rooting..but did a root last night..and put kaosyo and i really didnt like the look of it...most of it was in chinese..and i wasnt allowed to connect to anything..i later ....through the help of someone i had to download something else to connect to google and other things..
i like the look of the eris..dont mind rooting..but especially want something that runs faster and smoother..anyone recommend anything like this?..i want to overclock it...but being a noob to this..i get confused in the root rom overclock flash conversation..i've been reading a lot of boards and a lot of google searches...till my head starts to spin...
thank you (and sorry if i go against board rules etc)
I suggest EvilEris. It's 2.1 and sense based, so it's not too much different from what you're used to.
as for overclocking, buy SetCPU from the app market(I suggest buying instead of other means because these guys did good work and deserve compensation for it). The only things you really need to know is to make two specific profiles: One for charging/full that goes to about 710MHz(there's a slide bar in it to make this easier) and one that turns on when the screen is off(this can be picked from a drop down box in the profile maker) that has a max speed of like 245MHZ. This will help optimize your battery life. It's a fairly easy app to use also, so you'll get the hang of it pretty quickly.
thank you!..i was looking at evil eris..dont like the red..but its one that a lot of people spoke highly of...
i read about that app...will have to buy it..thanks for the help!
now if i can just figure out how to root again..lol...not sure if all that i did yesterday i will have to do the same...but they usually have installing instructions
For rooting your Eris, look at this thread. Works perfectly.
forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=725096
If you don't like the red from evil eris then I suggest senseable 3.1. Also sense based and very well spoken of also. Currently what I use and is my favorite.
As stated before setcpu is good for overclocking. You can download for free from these forums (search for it). And as always if you like it, its always nice to donate by buying the app from the market

That's just the wallpaper he uses. It starts with the default one. The only major colour changes is that he uses blue instead of green on the battery.

If you already rooted, you don't need to do it again. When changing ROMs, all you need to do is wipe factory reset, and cache, and nand backup, and then flash your new ROM (zip file).
Look up adb commands for help.

Yeah I agree with the camera thing. Camera magic isn't nearly as good as the stock camera app.
Plus for some reason froyo roms drain my battery like is going out of style. I'm talking I had a full charge, had data wifi bluetooth etc. off. No setcpu either. I had also calibrated the battery. Twenty minutes later after not even turning the screen on it was down almost 10%. And its only on froyo roms. I don't get it.

Evil Eris 3.0 was my long term every day ROM and I would recomend it, but I would also recomend CM6 in my sig.

It's probably because Froyo roms are OC'ed to 710 already. You need setcpu and create profiles to minimize battery drain.

I had profiles set. Didn't help any. I put the same profiles on senseable (oc'd to 710) and battery life is much better. I was doing some wireless tethering today for over an hour and had less drain than doing nothing with froyo.

Did it work ?
Not 100% sure yet just want to give it a couple more days then will let you know
So if the system is miscalibrated and doesn't charge all the way, how do you know when you have the battery 100% charged so you can run the program?
Edit: Never mind. I figured that out.
New question: If you do the complete discharge approach, do you leave the app on through the whole cycle or just turn it back on when the battery is just about dead and let it charge again?

That will work, but the method I always use is to wip battery stats and let the phone die, fully charge, and then let it die again. After that, the battery will be much better.
This actually does what Viper is talking about. All it does is simply delete the battery stats. Some say it helps, while some articles have said it does not help battery because the stats help tell the phone how to use the battery to its full potential. Personally, when I switched to Vipers rom I used this then emptied/charged it, froze sense and all bloatware through ViperMod (control?) and flashed the SBC kernel. It has been on for 4 hours now, with reddit and texting, and it is at 96%. That is ****ing amazing.
I taped 2 batteries together and they calibrate well, thanks.
Haha sorry about the typo guys and thanks for the advice ill try it when I come back from work tonight and see what happens.

Before wiping bat stats should the battery be at 100 or close to it (seems like stops at 99) and then wipe. Also should I do this with your stock rom first and then apply the test 5 sbc kernal or can i do it with the test kernal already installed?

Xperia X10i turning off

Guys.
I have been surfing all the forum to get a solution to my problem, and I couldn't find it.
Let me explain:
My X10i was working perfectly until about one week ago, at that moment I had DonutHD ROM installed, working great. I don't know why or how, the phone start to turn off (without turning on again) when the battery was at 75% charge.
My first thought was Battery Calibration... didn't worked, I tried several methods, from apps to wiping the stats on Xrecovery.
After that I came here to search for a solution, I found some options, like reinstalling the SW, did it, with Stock SE... didn't worked. Then I tried again to do the battery calibration... didn't worked.
I just want to get your opinion in my case, I'm starting to think that the problem is on the battery, but I'm not sure, since the phone stills shows 75% charge and turns off, I tried to drain all battery turning on the phone after the first incident, then full charge, then calibration, with no success.
Any other ideas???
By the way, I found this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/archive/index.php/t-943626.html... will this work??

I also have this problem on DonutHD.
I've tried two different batteries thinking that the batteries were faulty. The only pattern I can see is that it appears to occur mostly when charging while watching youtube, or listening to an internet stream. Not sure if its an overheating problem.

Try a different battery..
Just in case try this might work but im not sure coz i dont know whats wrong with your X10
1) Wipe everything clean on your phone and also on MMC (I prefer formatting MMC)
2) Then copy the ROM and flash it and also make sure proper kernel and WiFi modules are used

Thanks udupa82, I'm getting a new battery in this days to try it.
Anyways, I'll try what you are suggesting, hope it helps.
Today I tried to calibrate the battery via Xrecovery erasing the battery stats when fully charged, the phone booted up, and only showed 2% on battery, fully charged again, unplugged the cable, and when the battery got to 75% of charge, again it turned off. :crying:
the three terminals in the battery (the middle one is thermistor). put a thin good-electrical-conductor-poor-heat-conductor material on top of the thermister (e.g. graphite). so, ur phone does not think that battery is heating up, so it does not need to shut down to prevent explosion.

Random shutdowns.

My x10 is about 2 1/2 years old now. I'm unlocked bootloader and running Wolf's ROM. In the past month the phone has started shutting off randomly...it gives me an 'Android System...shutting down' message...sits on the screen for 10 seconds or so and then turns off. Doesn't matter what battery % i have left. Often when recording video but yesterday it did it in the camera app and then once checking twitter. Sometimes it can go days without doing it...other days its just really annoying.
Any thoughts?

I put in my first sentence that I'm on Wolf's ROM.
Check out the battery status/percentage when it shuts down again... the message you are getting is the common one when phone is on low battery..

Okay, but as I indicated in my first post, it doesn't matter what % of battery I have left. It has happened at 54%, 29%, 25%, 46% etc...

Looks like a battery issue... try wiping battery stat from recovery ( that's doesn't do anything to improve battery life) and let's see how battery holds up, that doesn't work try different ROM with different kernel... try tech devils ROM with doomlords kernel as it gave me almost 2 day battery life.. nothing works then buy a new battery...

Ok thanks. I'm on Doomkernel as well...and it never used to happen on any ROM i have had loaded. I'm going to pick up a battery anyways as I don't get the life out of it I used to.

When you have a new battery try a very lite ROM... having a lite rom helps in improving battery life.

Oh, yeah I kind of forgot that . I never used Wolf's ROM but Donut HD had this issue too. Make a full backup of Your ROM and erase the data (best also reflash the ROM). I hope this is only a data problem, not any hardware mulfunction

Thanks...but i've been on Wolf's ROM fo rmonths without issue. I did try restoring an old backup of it...no good. Then i completely wiped everything and reflashed it and reinstalled all my apps...and that didn't help
I think it's likely the battery.
I've just resolved this problem with my phone the battery is dying the cells inside are separating get a new battery to solve the problem then make sure to follow the instructions given with new battery then carry out a battery calibration aswell ive done this and my phone is back to how I used to be
