I too had the same problem. I suggest that you freeze applications which you don't/rarely use using freezing apps. That helps a lot.
Turn off background data and not just only sync. Turn off both.
Make sure GPS is off.
Under Applications --> Development , disable mock locations
U can disable Data when u r not using it. And try DxBattery booster. It really helps. For me, battery life in GingerDx was as good as any Froyo ROM. Was on a picnic from college, still battery lasted till evening, may be divine intervention.

GingerDX v014 without Maps, Calendar Service and DSP. Also disable position from google. For me it takes 3-4 days with normal use, 3-4 hours wi-fi, telephone sms.
Gingerxperia is very battery friendly,,, and also Gingerfroyo has awesome bettery life
I would say Floyo (anyone) would have the best battery life! But most of the developers are going for features more then battery usage.
Try this rom:http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1237930. This rom is really fast and battery life is good

Im using gingerdx v17 + linuxdx v3 . Its very fast and the battery life is very good for me... 2-3 days without charging

...as long as you didn't miss to also calibrate your battery upon flashing. The ROM may also contain the "undervolt' feature in the advanced settings section. Add a battery-saving app, and you have increased battery time already.

GingerDX Latest + linuxDX is the best
to install LinuxDX don't forget to unlock bootloader
Hello Guys,

you might wanna look more at a kernel that's is what makes the battery life better also reset battery stats in cwm recovery

I find stock roms have the best battery life. If you really want to push it, get a basic rooted kernel w/ clock speeds (semaphore), and underclock your phone to maybe 800mhz.
try using a stock rom and a good root (semaphore/galaxian) and use low light display and underclock the cpu
Thx guys, I'm gonna try that, (sorry to respond 1month later lol)

can you please explain more about underclock your phone to maybe 800mhz
I use simplicity with special configurations in the semaphore kernel:
- Underclocking to 800MHz
- Simple-IO
- batterysave Governor
- autobrightness to dark
- darker-Voodoo Color
I also switch off Network and Auto-Sync with help of widgetsoid (see market) when not in use.

Hey, sindalf, what version are you running, I was on 2.11 using fugu(I think) kernel v3189, and my battery is not very good.
any rom with removed bloatware such as CM7 and others
try gamerz rom that is brilliant for bat life and removed bloatware
Back in the day that I didn't used MIUI ROM's I used Darky's and that battery life was great! Also the ROM was blazing fast.
Last version I used from Darky's was 10.2 or something like that (V10 for sure). Had about 2 till 3 days battery life. With slightly less usage than normal. And i must tell you that when I flashed that ROM i jys had a new battery.
I am on cm7.2RC and i love it so far. Its fast, smooth and works like a charm. But the only one thing i hate about it is that it has terrible battery life. Within 3-4 hours of complete charge my battery runs down to 20%. I could flash a different rom but i dont wanna do that because i'm loving this rc build, well besides the terrible battery life.
Please help.

I've been using an app called Juice Defender and it has honestly (almost) doubled my battery life. Give it a try! Worst comes to the worst, you just delete it

All juice defender does is disable the wifi and 3g when not needed. I disable them manually from habit after use and because of that battery increase was 0.
Sent from my LG-P970 using xda premium
you can do the same thing in tasker or even more as in juicedefender. Tasker is also cheaper.
Agreed, juicedefender will only disable wifi and 3g connections.
Do it manually, without the need to install other app, and save your battery... One day with wifi disabled you hardly will use more than 10% of your battery (without gaming, just music)
Juice defender no doubt disables wifi and cellular data and ofcorse you can do it manually but it has the option of disabling wireless connections when the screen is off which saves a little more battery life. Get the free version, coz i used the Ultimate one and besides more manual options nothing else is different.

Umm... No
I used to get 8 hours on normal usage that time.
I currently get 20+ hours on my current config.
Not really. I lost 60% during the night just after using SEUS.
Anyway, what's the purpose of this thread?

It should be in general section I think so
Battery life's more or less the same. But the performance is sssooooo different from stock.

stock kernel tends to act like that.
root and install custom kernel and it will not drain battery so much (and even improve responsiveness in the process )
when I had stock kernel my phone lasted like 20hours - with thunderzap it is about double battery life for me
Even I am facing similar issue after updating. The phone lags little bit not much but the battery is draining quickly. Today when I unplugged the charger the battery was full. And right now it is 52%. The usage is that I did net surfing and one call and watched few videos on youtube. And in gingerbread the battery was 89% with same usage. So experts please help.

Enter recovery mode. Factory reset. Wipe cache too. This should solve the problem provided that you haven't done it yet. If problem persist, root, install custom kernel and rom. Search the threads there are many guides made. Post any problem in that thread.
Hope this helps.

Well I suggest the one on my signature. One of the most stable lag free rom.
