Hey,

On CM7 nightly 77 with the Tiamat_EVO_SBC kernel 4.0.2, First day at work today with this setup and I had 4g running all day. With non-rooted stock sense 2.2 I would leave work around 45-50% battery at the end of the day. Tonight I left at 13%.

I looked at useage and it said I used 39% of my battery at Phone Idle? What's the deal with that? I don't think it's usually that high. I don't live in a 4g area, but my job is in one and when I flipped on 4g my battery went down MUCH faster then normal 4g use.

Ideas?

*edit* Also forgot to mention I installed SetCPU from the market and I see another thread with almost exactly the same battery drain as mine...

You don't have to do that. You can just go to:

Menu > Settings > Cyanogenmod settings > Performance

Adjust the governors to your taste, they are there for performance, on demand, battery life. . .
