Extending Battery Life

---

Anybody had any luck with extending the battery life on the X5?

I successfully overclocked my X5 to 1.8GHz, fully stable. But I don't want to run it at a high speed until I can get the battery life under control.

Genokolar's V7 has a low voltage mod. I don't know what changes were made. And i don't want to search through the 74 page long thread on goapk to find out. I just put it on my B136 to see if it will make a difference.

I'm also sure with setcpu you can configure some profiles to improve battery life.

I tried to improve my battery life for a lot of different ways, including playing with juicedefender, setcpu profiles, smartass governor, geno's low voltage mod, etc etc... But the most obvious improvement is simple, just to uninstall battery eating apps, to find out what apps suck up the battery fast, I installed system panel, when I found my battery going fast, I enable the monitor in system panel and let it run for some time, after a day or two check the log to see what apps are using CPU frequently which wake my phone from sleeping, then uninstall them.

I keep everything simple. All stock but different internet browser, few games and few apps. No custom power panel widgets or juicedefenders..

Which app did you use ?

For monitoring I used System Panel.
