If I had to guess your phone really does not like to be put on a diet.. it gets amnesia in the worst kinda way.. stay away from the aggressively undervolted kernels..

lol stupid phone, im on the new comavolt kernel now and it is fine, but battery hogging. guess i just always need to be with my charger, or as DX told me "get a dumbphone" Im afraid to even try the -50

One of my housemates has a fascinate which is set up almost identically to mine in all relevant aspects and she gets about 1/3 the battery life I do. So it can really depend on the phone I guess.

I may take a tour of the -50s in a day or two.. I have not had a chance to really take any of these kernels out for a really good run - been flashing boots for the last couple of days.. That really leaches on a battery.

@ Jae lol I guess that could be what happened to me today, I was mixing and mashing boots as well! thanks to you!!!! r u going to stick with NV or r u going to Voodoo land?? either way let me know how ur experiments go with them on ur battery. JT's was running slow for me so went back to comavolts.

@wyliic my dad has a fascinate and wont let me touch his at all and his battery is crap on eclair. It could just be the battery everyone got. Im tempted to go into the store and complain about my battery and see if they give me a new one. but i dont want to go back to stock 2.1 to do that. unless they dont look at my phone.

I will take the next couple of days to finish my full battery cycle (charge, discharge) - on ComaVolt voodoo, then may roll back to nonvoodoo to get a comparison.. Voodoo has been good to me over the last few days - testing install scripts and boot animation runs... no boot loops and no FCs..

You guys can see what I have put together.. on the bootanimation link page - if you are into fractals - you will dig it... kanged from youtube.

Looks like there are some 3G connectivity and bluetooth issues with several of the kernels that were released.. work continues..

I dont use bluetooth and my 3g has been fine i am on the Dl09 modem, ive had no 3g isses with new comavolt. Just wish battery was better :'( :'(

jt1134 just released new kernels. Says he has fully repaired the fix permissions issue and the md.5 checksum problems with nandroid backups

The wallpapers are in your galllery. Just go menu=>wallpaper=>gallery and you will see a group called NitroWallpapers or possibly NitroDarkWallpapers.

Always here to help bro. Can't tell if times_infinitiy's latest one is based off of jt's newest release or if he still has to release that one.. I'm liking what I see in jt's most recent changes, and I was running the best off of the last ComaVolt. So I hope his latest one is once again based off of jt's most recent and then undervolted even further like he has been doing so far.

Just tried out kaoscinate v5, i know its not fully functional but i was bored and just wanted to see what it was all about. I can't wait for that bad boy too be fully functional

Just upped to ComaVolt 0408 voodoo.. Will have to run for a few days before any solid conclusions.. Thus far looking good.

I have swapped out boot animations about 50 times in the past few days.. just as many reboots.. wiped out my battery.. gotta take a break from image editing..

I would say you need a break. Initial impression of jt's kernel is battery consumption is faster so far. Just over two hours off battery after charging to full and I'm already at 75% with little usage. Will give it the full 2-3 days of running it before I really have a good impression though. Comavolt seemed to work better for my setup.

NOTICE - For anyone reading this, this is only the first day I am running jt's new kernel. I, as everyone should, always give any setup 2-3 days before making any judgements on it. Sometimes it just takes that long for things to settle in. This is in now way meant to endorse one kernel over the other. Everyone's experiences with the different kernels are going to be different. Jt does fantastic work - just look at all he's done with the AOSP ROM, kernels, and CWM. I don't want the inevitable "Oh, Landshark says jt's new kernel sucks and doesn't work." I didn't say that. I will let this settle in for 2-3 days then let everyone know what MY experience was. Best thing anyone can do is try all the different kernels for about 2-3 days to see what works best for YOUR setup.

Hey bud. I dont see it, so you are saying it should be in my gallery? I have some picassa albums, but i dont see anything nitro related. Is it in folder? Or is it stuck with the stock wallpapers?
