Your problem is your overclocking, of course its going to drain your battery faster.

Have you read the other post which claims that battery drain is caused by a corrupt ExtROM? I am trying this out at the moment... hope it is true...

your problem is that your over clocking all the time, even when your phone is idle. set the speed to 221. then, use the scaler to set your minimum speed to 162 or 169. Then, set your boost to 260 or 273. Play with different extended decay and attack settings. Also, upgrade your battery status to beta3. Setting it like this, you idle at 26-33mhz lower than stock, peak at 26mhz overclocked and boost (for when your workin it hard) to 78mhz overclocked.

also, leave wifi off if your not using it and try not to use it too much. Conserving my wifi use and with these settings, i'm able to take my phone off the charger at 7:30am and i don't charge it again until 11pm.

Check out my sig.

I am running 130 @ idle, 260 o/c, and 273 boost.

Also, noticed (and downloaded) a new version (http://www.chi-tai.info/download/tdl11969502/BatteryStatusExt.1.04.CAB) of Battery Status (which has unfortunately since been removed) last week (was using build 0178, then was build 0182, but now it is build 0181 (http://www.chi-tai.info/download/tdl11969502/BatteryStatusExt.1.04.CAB)). That seems to have helped a bit with battery life and is more accurate on battery strength.

Here's the link to the battery drain solution... So far, for me, it seems that battery drain has slowed down, after I reflash Dopod's official ROM and then flash Xplore1.1(OS only)... But, don't take my word for it as I have 2 variables to consider now.. different ROM and with a uncorrupted Extended ROM..

One thing I noticed that is different is, now my CPU usage can go down to 1-4%(indicated by Battery Status), previously, it rarely goes below 10% even when idle... then again, it could be coincidence... It's too early to tell, let me go through a cycle of charge and drain first as this is a new ROM(for me) first day!!! See my signature...

The latest official verisions of BatteryStatus are always right here:

184 appears to be posted now. This one finally appears to properly save your settings and then deinstall the previous before installing the new one (older ones didn't do this and I had problems after upgrading and would have to finally deinstall BS completely, then reinstal and resetup my settings).
