i've been reading comments on battery charge life going down quickly with WM6.

has anyone compared the effect to battery life when changing the registry values from 1 to 0 for L2TP1, PPTP1, AsyncMac1, and Irsir1?

I'm testing the following Reg:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Drivers\SDCARD\ClientDrivers\Cl ass\SDMemory_Class]
"DisablePowerManagement"=dword:00000000

It may be psicological... but it seems to improve battery life.

Other guys test it to compare results.

It does improve battery life. Thats because it "switches off" the SD slot while the device is in sleep mode. The downside of it is that you sometimes have to reinsert the SD card after getting back from suspend.

And also takes more time to turn on again.. because it is starting up the sd card...
Now I get why is it taking so long.. THANKS

HoW abou your REG comments.. what do they do?

The battery draining seems to be the bigest problem of this rom.. I'm consuming 1% for each 20 minutes. (wifi and BT off; random usage; backlight turning off at 30 sec.)

How to see all processes running to determine the one that's draining the battery??

i notice it's the HTC Home plugin that eats up much of the battery juice. i'm not using it anymore.
