rom: Rebuild of V20Q Gingerbread (by Flix123 LINK in XDA forums)
kernel: default LG with tweaks (?? as included in the ROM)
baseband: V20q Baseband (the one linked by FLix123 at his thread)

max battery life, full use (games, mail, wifi, gps): still testing

max battery life, normal use 2G: 104 hours !!!!

max battery life, normal use 3G: 47 hours


Normal usage for me means data always on, about 1 hour talking and 20-25 SMSs per day (while weather gadget, mail, FB, twitter always working/updating in the background and me checking them every 40-45 mins or so).

Don't know exacly

rom :CM7 nightly 2012/04/21
kernel : no idea standart no OC
euh i charge every night!
10h unplug then send sms's hole day
+ internet on Gsm/Umts + wifi on hole day normaly + push gmail (dont get any email on it) + hotmail push some emails a day + internet some times + screen on 25% + light gaming some thimes 15 min
i get i think 12h, at 0h00 and have some 10-20 % left if i dont play games!
but if i need long battery life i just disable internet put only gsm on! and i will last like 2days! only sms's no gaming (acualy doesnt help that much....)

Okay new will keep it short

baseband 725 v10b rill same
cm7 tesmak 135 with symbiosis kernel
Got 1day and 11h. (Acualy first time i had more then a day.:) )
Screen euh dont know is wasen.t showing up but had simual a other time 1h30 screen.
Only 2g, data on, wifi 80% on. Not hole day.
Did watch youtube for some 10min i gues other use sms;)
For one time in was happy with battery.

(Btw why we have such bad battery? My friends galaxy s1 goes easyli 1day or 2days. and with more then 4h of screen use. stock custom rom)
So im prity jalous....

Very nice, I too have the feeling that the stock rom had the best battery life... Still checking out CM9 roms though and flash at least one rom/kernel a day at the moment so I guess my battery life isn't really reliable...

Rom: CM7 nightly
Kernel; not sure, maybe ironkernel.

Average usage, bored at school: about 5-6 hours, 2.5-3 of which is screen on browsing.

Average use, not bored at school: 12-16 hours, same usage as above.

Gaming: 2 hours, maybe a tad more with wireless off.

Overnight I lose 4-50%, need to fix that.

I am not sure if this an objective way to assess your phone power usage.
It all depends on battery condition too. There are Batteries in the market which are "fakes" packaged as original as well as third party labeling.

The performance can vary 50% or more between a genuine and a 'fake' and even among the third party ones. Again, a few charge and discharge cycles degrade some batteries much more than others.

Assuming the ROM , the OS and the usage all being assumed as same and constant,
the battery variable as well as the Signal strength variable all have a substantial impact on the power endurance of the battery. Even the Apps of similar nature ( Eg Music player ) use more or less power.

I installed a battery current widget that monitor the current. In idle mode ( with battery full charged ) it consumes 2 mA, which I think is reasonable. But I am not sure if the widget is monitoring the current flow accurately , though with another
widget I got near about same results.

Hope this helps.

I'd call that very light use not normal use :p

Probably normal for me then :p

Apart from SMS, FB, Twitter and some updates I don't use the internet functions on the phone that much (probably that is why I am not chewing through the battery fast).

BUT...

All other ROMs I have tried only lasted about 18 hours on 3G for me (or about 40 hours on 2G). So that ROM seems to work wonders for me!

It probably has to do with the Fast Dormancy OFF setting it has (as all the previous ones didn't have that and android logs from my phone where literally choke full of Fast Dormancy entries/errors.

You have the V20D version then not 20Q.

The one I am using is from THIS POST (I have also installed V20q_Tweak_Pack_FD_off_by_Flix123.zip from the second post in the thread, I haven't tried out v2 of the Tweak Pack)
