splash looped using CFS no sbc and bfs no sbc...radio 11.19 cm #39 cw 2.5.18, cw3 wont flash roms for me so I stayed with old cwm..is this the issue? a few people stayed with the previous cwm

"Superior Battery Charging"
It is an attempt to keep charging the battery while on the charger to keep it at 100% so when you take it off the charger in the morning you don't drop to 90% in 15 minutes
It seems that they figured it out for the Evo, not so much for the Inc yet.
*It could cause battery issues, but like anything on here, use at your own risk. I've had zero problem with it and my battery has never overheated, nor have I noticed deteriorated battery life, along with many other people.
Do we have any objective data showing that it does or does not cause battery deterioration? Seems like a lot of this is hypothetical.
All of them are 2.6.37 versions. The only differences between the froyo and GB ones are:
1. Wifi driver, GB only works with CSCAN, froyo will not work with CSCAN enabled
2. USB mass storage driver, some slight changes to the GB one as opposed to the one that works on froyo.
There have been numerous threads that went nowhere talking about it, lets not make this a debate on where or not this harms anything. No data has been concrete that I've read. If you use it and your battery takes a ****, get a 1500 htc battery for $15 on ebay... its our own choice to use it
A whole thread would be needed for the discussion... start one in general and see what happens
There have been a couple of reports floating around (two or three at the most) that it caused their battery to fail or explode or something like that, but I don't know how credible the reports are.
Several debates have been around, people have even taken apart the battery and identified a chip that prevents overcharging. Others claim to be electrical engineers and explain how harmful it is.
I can't speak for how it reacts on the incredible, but on my EVO it's been great for awhile and my battery hasnt changed at all. It charges to about 4.2mV and +4mV and then draws about 30-50 mA from there so the extra battery life helps.

Oh no, I wasn't trying to disparage the thing at all. Quite the opposite! I was just wondering if all the "OMG IT WILL MAKE YOUR BATTERY EXPLODE" stuff was rumor and hearsay or actual evidence. If it's just just conjecture, then all's good.
Also, the BFS+SBC made my battery take a complete crap.
Flashed the bfs with sbc last night before bed. Within half an hour of pulling off the charger was down to 60% charge. Not sure if it was a bad flash or a glitch on my end, but I'll be trying it again with CM7 #40 when I have free time.

I have been using it this morning and it has been very sluggish. I am switching back to the stock CM7 Kernel for the time being. It was much snappier.
Yes there is something seriously wrong with the SBC, It seems to have forced my phone to not be charged for a good bit of last night. I'm at less than an hour off the charger and I'm at 38%. Good thing this gets good battery life coupled with cm7!
Think my problem stemmed from accidentally entering maps right before I turned off the screen. Was trying to get a GPS fix that whole time I was off the charger. I'll try it again tonight and report back.
On another note, I didn't see a savaged-zen profile in the CPU settings of CM7 or SETCPU. Is the smartass profile just modified specifically for this kernel or should there be a savaged-zen setting?

I didn't have anything unusual running during the half hour it took to get under 40%. It is a kernel issue.. Even if you had gps searching, your battery life should never drop that fast
This isn't a battery stats issue (It would not cause this), this happened before when we had sbc kernels.. Yesterday my battery dropped to 94% in the morning and stayed there for awhile, all day good battery life. This morning I wake up and I'm down to under 40%..
