What ROM are you currently running, which one have you found best? I was on leedroid 2.0 but had allot of lag playing games, so I went back to stock Rogers through a nandroid, but hate it!! Find battery life not as good as leedroid.

Hey,
I am actually using the stock rogers rom (rooted) and so far have had no issues at all. As for the battery life, i drained the battery and charged it over night 3 times in a raw and now my batt life is abt 1 1/2 day with normal use.
hope this helps.
Cheers

Hey guys so I've been running cm7 beta since it release and my battery life if horrible I get like 6 hours max! :/ has anyone tried most of the Rome and could sshare with me which one is the mist battery friendly? Thanks!

I am using cm7 now with decent battery life (15 hours with moderate/light use) but I installed Homebase about a week ago for a couple days and from what I could tell I was getting incredible battery life. I ended up switching back because there was just too much in cm7 that I couldn't go without. It seems that the stock ROMs are gonna give better battery life than cm7 though.
Hey guys. I know this is going to appear an elementary issue but I can't seem to figure it out. I work for Sprint I know all about battery life and what kills it and how to make it last. My 3d is draining about 20 percent per hour! I have swapped batteries, tested my batteries, wiped my device mutiple times and flashed different roms and kernels. I can't seem to figure out why my battery life has become so bad. My wifes 3d lasts about 16+ hours with moderate use and I get nowhere near that. Any input would be appreciated! Thanks!

you can try wiping battery stats. if you have been flashing roms that can sometimes cause bad battery life. also the standard making sure radios you arent using are turned off and what not. but i'm sure you already know that. most recoveries have an option built in to wipe battery stats or you can use an app called batterycalibration. pretty straight forward app. hope that helps.

LOL! Oh, they know. They all have radar.
May be a bad battery, 20% an hour is an aweful lot
LOL she would definitely know if I swapped it out. I bought the platinum brand 34000mah extended life battery from best buy and I'm seeing little improvement. I really hate to think its the phone since I have s-off and really dont Want a 1.5 hboot. Could some one tell me which radio I should have. Could that affect battery life as well?

The radio version shouldn't effect battery life that much, could be from a bad signal, the phone constantly searching for signal kills the battery quick, and when you say her phone lasts 16 hours with moderate use.... That doesn't tell us too much,
Screen on time is where the valuable information comes from....
Do everything you can to maximize battery life... Turn on and off the certain radios as you need them etc.
And do a battery stat wipe, as this is calibrating the phone to the battery, not the battery to the phone... Flashing kernals and roms could Bork battery stats very easily... And flashing to a different one wouldn't necessarily fix the problem... Hope you get it worked out,
Get rid of auto brightness too, get your captivate buttons to a lower brightness they eat the battery up too...

I have a Rogers htc evo 3d
I rooted and s-off yesterday, I am currently using king cobra 1.6 rom, battery life seems to drop pretty quick, what's the best ROM for battery life? An I best going back to stock?

I have used, several roms and have found kings ROM best for reception. As for your battery question. The longer the ROM is used the better the battery gets. I use my EVO for everything, torrents, email, text, calls and just playing around and get a full 18 to 24 hours of use.
Hope this helps.

CDMA Sprint (USA) Evo 3D Roms won't work with the GSM Evo 3D. I would recommend LeeDroid 2.0.
I found that Warm TwoPointThree (link in my signature) does pretty well and that's what I use, but I do think Infected Eternity had better battery life. I still use Warm though because I like the ROM better and the difference isn't that noticable.
Additionally, if you don't really mind going AOSP, Cyanogenmod 7 (in the development thread) has the best battery life of all.

Markdexter has the GSM Evo 3D, which isn't compatible with Sprint ROMs.
Amazing rom
Great rom but what is the CS Engine UI for?
I am currently using ViperRom RC Test 4 with lock screen fix and this is the first time i have ever gotten 15h 21m 16s on the standard EVO 3D battery. I am a heavy user but didn't use like i normally do since i was home yesterday.

I went from Eternity to warm and i went from 9-12 hours(stock battery) & 20-28 hours(3500 mAh Trexcell battery) to 5(Stock battery) & 10 hours(3500 mAh). That's notable to me. I went back to Eternity this morning after i noticed the battery and warm started these errors.
FC bugs everywhere, then soft boots, and eventurally stuck at boot screen.
I'm a loving the Ava modified V1.
My stats below for usage. I only seek battery life and man I love it.

that's interesting because I thought Warm was just ok for battery life..and infected eternity drained my battery faster than anything. Maybe I didn't give either enough time. I like Infected better but that is why I switched.
if ur getting that kind of battery life its worth trying out. ^^^^^^^^ I read the OP Dev has not answered in a while. What kernel do u have installed in ur set up 2 get those kind of stats? I don't want a faster phone i want good battery life.
Not sure what ROM. Currently installed Olympus Trinity XE Prime. It runs good and battery worked pretty well even though there were only six hours left of my day before I went bed.
Can you be more specific about what exactly you're looking to do and how you use your phone. I personally use my phone a lot for the heavy texting, web browsing (not on 4G don't have Sprint 4G here but somehow in the surrounding towns and Boston), an occasional phone call. I also have a twitter account syncing every hour, a facebook account syncing every hour, and push gmail. Heck I even use a live wallpaper and still get good battery life as well as 25% screen brightness.
One tip I can offer is if you don't use stuff like picasa web albums, constantly add new contacts, or use google calender, you can go into settings>accounts and sync>gmail and uncheck sync contacts, sync calender, etc except for sync gmail. Even in the twitter and facebook apps, if you don't like to integrate contacts you can uncheck syn c contacts for both. Those things seem to extend battery life as your phone isn't constantly syncing things you don't need.
I forgot to leave out I leave my 4G off on my stats cause I have zero towers in my area. Its kind of crazy sprint is dropping 4G handsets in 2012. Just read that earlier today.

I believe the opposite. As i stated before Warm cut my battery life so much compared to eternity. Did you try flashing the ext4 tweaks because it is a performance and battery help.

Mikrunny has been the best rom i've used on the 3vo bar none, it won't allow you to play 3D games but that's pretty much the only fault which could bother you, oh and wifi dropping, but if your CDMA it shouldn't affect you.
Meanrom without anthrax kernel will give you good battery life.
I've become quite a fan of Clean ROM.

Mikrunny +1....with regular texting (couple hundred in a day) and tuned down to 1.2ghz from 1.5ghz with antutu, I'm getting about 30-40 hrs of constant running without putting on charger...that's full charge to about 5% battery...

It isn't the Rom that provides good battery life its the kernal

I really want to get a evo but I'm worried about the battery life. I do 2 things on a smartphone:
-Listen to music
-browse the web
I do this non stop until the battery runs out. Can someone tell me what battery life/ screen time you get when doing this.

In my experience the battery life on the EVO LTE is great, but it varies more than other phones I've used, based on how I use it. graphics-intensive games and other apps that keep the screen on and run the processor at the same time use it the most. You can do plenty of web browsing provided you keep the screen brightness halfway down, I use the automatic setting and don't notice much battery drain when browsing, but if you turn the brightness to it's highest setting you'll definitely notice more battery drain. I love the 4.7" screen but there's no way a screen that big isn't going to draw a lot of power with the backlight turned up. As for streaming music, that's no problem. I've listened to pandora for hours at a time with the screen off and only seen single-digit drops in battery percentage.
bro i thought the same thing cause u cant remove the battery.. but let me tell u i get great battery life out this phone... i had the og evo and the evo 3d.. and now evo lte.. this phone kicks major a$$!!!!!!

I use mine heavily for many graphics and radio intensive applications, and routinely get 14 or more hours on a charge. GPS is the one thing that will drop me below that. My brother has a galaxy s3 and gets much less.

I for one think that the battery life sucks on this phone. But I only can compare to the phone i had before the droid x from verizon, I could go 24 hours on the droid x but on the evo I get around 16 on normal everyday usage. now suppose I came from the evo or evo 3d phones and had a phone with that drained the power off the phone then I would be saying this phones battery rocks.
but with that all being said 16 hours on a smart phone really is not that bad.
