Re: Drew's CM7 builds (stable: 08/02/2011 | experimental: 08/03/2
Ok I ran a test of the battery running this Rom:
This test is not to state if this Rom is good or bad it is to just to show what kind of power usage there is with this Rom. All phones run differently, depending on setup and apps installed & power use may vary!
Build ID: STABLE-001
Build Date: 08/02/2011
Using SetCpu: 122Mhz/748Mhz w/on damand scaling while screen is on
Using SetCpu: 122Mhz/480Mhz w/smartass scaling while screen is off
The test started Thursday at 9:00pm when I got up to 100% charge (can not bump charge Drew's CM7, due to the fact the phone turns on when plugged in). Results as follows:
All radios off of course means wifi, snyc, bluetooth & data off
Normally when All radios are off, phone is sitting idle not in use, which means the Screen is off as well
9:00pm Thursday 100%: charge, All radios off, Time for bed
5:30am 96%: woke up
5:30am to 7:40am 82%: Bluetooth & data on, sent 3 texts, recieved 2 text, 15min on tapatalk (checking Forums)
7:40am to 9:30am 80%: All radios off
9:30am to 9:45am 76%: Data on, 15min on tapatalk (checking forums)
9:45am to 12:00pm 74%: All radios off
12:00pm to 12:45pm 64%: Data on, 30min on tapatalk (checking forums), Searched web for 10min, received 1 text.
12:45pm to 2:30pm 64%: All radios off, received 2 texts, 1 text sent
2:30pm to 2:42pm 59%: Data on, 10min on tapatalk (checking forums)
2:42pm to 4:02pm 54%: All radios off
4:02pm to 5:30pm 44%: Bluetooth on, 43sec phone call
10:00pm Friday Test ended Phone off charger 25 hours with 39% charge left (Not that great with the little use it had)
Now in my opinion this is VERY lite use of the phone, and I feel that when ever data is on this rom drains the battery quickly. This is compared to other Rom's such as Reborn with the same use would have aleast 50-60 % charge left in the same time frame. (Normally can go all weekend on one charge). Again this is not to say this is not a bad Rom, use this information as a comparsion to your phone use and see how they compare! I would actully say I like this Rom, it is very quick, reacts well to touch screen inputs and I dont see any lag when switching between screens or apps. The people who are working on this Rom did and still are doing a great job.
