over 6 hrs screen on? wow that is amazing. i usually get 5, running wicked red rom and trinity 43b

what is your screen brightness set to?
Yeah it was insane... Better than I could get with my razr maxx (regardless of what they claim you can get)
I was at over 4 hours with 35 percent left before I threw it on the charger for the night.

Yeah that rom kernel combo is out of control... Just for [email protected]#s and giggles we should see a best case scenario battery usage.. I bet we could sqeak 7 plus hours of on screen time...

I am getting really good on battery time. But it seems like my screen on time is worse then before.... I am on one hour and 20 minutes of on screen time with 68 percent left. I did use a lot of four g Internet today while I was out at the outlet today.

Before I used to get about four to five hours of screen on time

I just did a AnTuTu benchmark... and i did not touch the rom/kernel in any way. And in my detailed scores it saying the clock frequency is under a GHz?? Is this thing really under clocked that much.. if so, no wonder battery life is much better. Check out the pic i attached, once again I did no changes.

Could be throttling... Or depending on when the reading was taken could be correct. 1.8ghz probably isn't required to test sd card...

I have found that with faux kernel adjusting voltages has helped dramatically with the underclocking due to heat. I really hope morfic puts adjustable volts into a future kernel as these cpus seem to be hugely over volted (ymmv of course)

I am using this combo, for awhile now, and it is the most stable of them all.
Rom:FreeGS3 (GSN) R5 (thanks much redruM)
Kernel:Adama 003
Excellent battery life.

Might want to do flashes thru CWM, as it does not set off the ticker.


Although CM10 nightly builds are FAST! I am waiting for the final product here... wow.

You think adama03 is better than trinity battery life wise?

Yes I do, I tried Trinity, I did not get good battery results.

I had that same setup before and it was great but didnt like how much it used to over heat. I then switched to trinity alpha 23 and Ive gotten much better battery with about 3 hours onscreen time and 19 hours overall. Now that I hear about alpha 43 I might just switch to that in a few
