Probably one of my best days. I have been using the phone heavily today (wifi on for about 18-20 hours today and edge network when connected to wifi and 3G when not. Location services off, brightness at 24% with auto brightness off, calendar sync off, mail fetch every 30 minutes, sent around a hundred messages/imessages, watched some youtube videos, streamed some music, at least 3 hours of music playback (1 hour on speaker while watering my lawn ), some browsing on chrome, and lots of facebooking. I have a lot of tweaks like ISX, Octopus keyboard, iControl, winterboard, etc that would be considered battery intensive, but today as a good day. I wanted to see how long my phone could last on one charge so i ill post a picture when it is fully dead.

So two days ago, I did moderate texting, about 2.5 hours of pandora / tunein radio over wifi, light Internet browsing about 45 mins of minecraft play and two Cydia downloads and 22 hours after full charge I had 34% battery...
Yesterday after Higher texts, and about 30 minutes of talk time , plus more minecraft, and a few Internet videos and I got my phone down to 10% battery about 13 hours after a full charge... But there was a lot of minecraft!!!
No lockinfo and no weathericon....
I'm adjusting, because I LOVED these... For now im getting by with bulletin....

No offense to anyone in this thread but obsessing over battery life like this would drive me insane. I get what I get, use what I want, and spend my time thinking of other things. There's always going to be another percentage point to chase!

go stock. problem solved and you are welcome!

I've been stock for a Total of 30 minutes.
I couldnt handle that.
Also I don't care about a few percentage points... I went from no battery issues at all to losing a full charge in 3 hours....
I'm back to where I was, minus LI and weathericon which I had before....

I like my phone work for me instead of the other way around. Auto brightness is a drain on battery, so i use BatteryDoctorPro to keep it on 30%. Its pretty bright as it is. My radio auto switches thanks to iControl. I dont use 3G when my phones idle so it switches to 2G adnd saves me battery. Your phone is only as good as its features and i am willing to sacrifice some features to be able to use my phone how i want.
