Just completely disable data connection, 3G and wifi. I'm sure every ROM allows you to do it.
For GPRS/Edge get the "NoData" cab (I think it is on Modaco forum actually, but maybe we have it here in one of the gazillion posts too).
That way you're all set.

I can't tell about other ROMs, but i.e. in my ROM you could just install what you actually need/use and that - together with disabling all the above - would guarantee as minimal battery use as possible.


Anyways, if you're such a heavy user as you say, you should get extended battery. My Kaiser looked terribly bulky with 3200mAh battery, but at least I could use it for entire day exactly as I wanted and it still had enough juice left...
Since you chose TyTN II as your phone, obviously you don't care about phone's look but it's features, right?
It'll always will look crappy compared ti iPhone, but who cares... you can DO many things iPhone can't, and that's the beauty of Kaiser

Th only way to really tell is flash and follow -888- in regards to saving juice.

Yep i'm using a 2700 and i completely agree i'd rather have a phatt phone that does everything i want and lives a day or so

It's already a brick 1-2 cm more not gonna make no difference

You will not find a best ROM for battery as so many variables in battery life Radio, SPL etc etc.

So only way as said before is to find the best setup for you.

Exactly.


Frankly, not that I want to be mean, by since OP is using his Kaiser for talk/text only or mostly - and don't want "the brick" (which Kaiser already is)then why not use some small "cool looking" dumbphone like iphone, or even RAZR or such...
Carrying basically a portable computer has it's price, ya know
They can miniaturize them even more today, no sweat, but the battery problem remains unsolved, at least until current battery technologies make some significant leap forward.

Either you want capable device with short life, or you add larger battery, or you go for limited capabilities device.
I don't think there is any other way.

Buy a desktop cradle charger with a phone and a battery slot. At night I put my phone and the battery in the charger. In the morning I grab the phone and put the extra battery in my pocket. Double the battery life for the day and you don't make your phone bulkier.

Hey Guys,

I'd like to say that there IS variaties on battery life performance from ROM to ROM, because I am same sensative as bstylz911 on battery life and I did notice that it does matter on which ROM is using.

Generally speaking, a LITE ROM will be more battery friendly than a FULL ROM, if you don't install and run unnessacery programs on it. On the other side, a well cooked WM6.5 ROM on same load, due to its enhanced core, will be better than a WM6.1 ROM for power management.

I can not say which is the best because I did not flash many ROMs in recent two months, but based on my past experience SAKAJATI's Apr. 20th WM6.1 Rhodium Lite ROM has been best for me, another one maybe from -888-, the first replyer for your post, telling from that it is a really lite ROM, maybe there are others recently released, please just read and search 'battery' on each ROM thread for user's comments.

Beside ROM itself, there are many other factors that could affect battery life, please check this thread and all links from the thread for more information:
[res] Battery Conservation Fanatic thread..

Cheers.
