Did you do the math on that? That would give you over 6 hours of screen on time, and would be fine.
Most of it is your screen, so you can't do much aside from using the lowest comfortable brightness level instead of auto brightness.

My apologies I said that incorrectly. I have it on for 35mins that is with an 1 hour use of battery... now I think about it I should just do the math lol

edit: and thanks aside from brightness settings wasnt sure what more could be done

I'm curious what I can do to curb that massive drop. Keep in mind I have only gmail syncing, twitter every 4 hours and nothing else... I pretty much have it as lean as possible with the least notifications on. Any insight would be great... also I'm switching between rascream and eurokang as I find those roms operate best for me combo with t11. Thanks

I had battery issues with rascalo although a great rom. Now euroskank is working a treat and have doubled my battery life coming from rascarlo. Your variables are most likely different from mine but I'm getting about 5 hours of screen on time now with Euroskank latest with default T11. I get about 2 days of normal use with Euroskank.

Basic battery 101. Screen uses the most. And as morfic stated about the brightness... when screen is not on and you're not doing anything with the phone ( streaming etc). It should be in deep sleep. It its awake or constantly being woken up battery drains. Also bad signal can be a major battery drain.

I just wanted to say that I've tried most of the trinity kernels, but T132-NS-56HZ-ANY-201212302.zip is possibly the best kernel I've ever used on my Nexus S. Regardless of which ROM I use it with, it delivers. Currently running AOSP+ 8.1 and it's just an awesome combo.

I agree. The T11 from that batch *seems* to run better as well. I think that the colors are better too. Maybe nothing has changed other than voltage control. Either way I'm sticking with the 2012123 kernel. I trust Morfic's preset voltages, they've always worked for me. Seems like whenever I start messing with voltage is when I start having problems...

Agree. I trust the dark powers of trinity to guide me. Stopped fiddling when Bedalus' research showed that even extreme UV only saves like 2% battery. Crank em up to stock, OC that GPU and get the thing done.

If the battery runs out, charge it. I always have sync on, because I believe we should use our smartphones, smartly.

Trinity does that, it's snappy, looks the best (tried a stock kernel again last week, can't handle those colours at all now) and I can get about 3hrs screen time on any given day, under most circumstances, I think asking for more is just greedy.

Do you run T132 at 1 Ghz or at 1320?

How's the battery life.

I run it at 1 Ghz and it lasts a day easily under normal use. So 2 - 3 hrs screen on time, 16 hrs off the charger. Syncing on all day. I also change the sdcard read ahead to 128. I've found the UI is smoother at that speed and the I don't really notice any in/decrease consistently with it at 2048. So I revert it to stock.
