Right?


I have everything from the CM Bible page. I have wiped and reinstalled everything a number of times and Android System is always sitting right on top. The battery holds fine when the screen is off, but whenever it's on regardless of Wifi/mobile data ect. it plummets fast.

Any suggestions?

i think this is pretty normal for cm7 because its still alpha...i have pretty similar "problem" and im quite happy with battery life on cm7,its at least twice as good than on sense roms so dont worry,use your phone and charge your battery when needed,if this is really a bad battery life for you than try to get anker :)

I just switched to trips ICS alpha and it's fine now. Android system doesn't even register in my battery usage. Just display and wifi. I might try to head back to CM and see if the problem returns. Thanks for the heads up. If CM still doesn't want to work out I'll check that out.

Yeah I suppose so. I just really don't get why my dialer would be using 9X more battery than my display is.

I think it depends on the rom you are using. I noticed with the lateset miui the android system is a little higher. I agree that it must be an aosp thing.
