I'm just wondering how long your phone battery lasts.

What apps you have in the background, whether you keeep APN on or off, live wallpaper etc etc

:D

3 days.

Wifi off unless using it.

3G off unless using it.

GPS off unless using it.

Always on mobile data disabled. Leaving this on kills battery and gains nothing.

No animated wallpaper.

I'm a very light user now however as I only use my Pulse as my work phone so generally calls only. Above settings still valid either way however.

3G off always

GPS off always

Wifi if off by default, it is on for about 40-60 minutes/day

Background light is on minimum usually

Still image as background

Automatic data off

Only Cache cleaner runs in background, performing a clean on every day once (everything else is stopped in task manager)

CPU is on default value (everything is on default value, no tweaks in Tom's latest CM6 rom)

With these settings my phone's battery lasts for 15-25 hours only :D with a few short calls (max 6-10 minutes/day) and some received texts (1-3/day). If I do not use wifi neither, it lasts for 20-25 hours, if I use it relatively a lot, then sometimes my phone turns off before i would get home to charge it.

Long story short, i have to charge it every night.

Wifi, GPS are switched off because I not use it.

2G network is used instead of 3G.

Autosync is on for gmail & calendar.

Backlight level is set to ~10% by default.

Tasker configured with some profiles:

1) When screen is switched off and battery level >=20% Tasker turns mobile data usage off. Is battery level <20% Tasker turns on airplane mode.

2) When screeen is unlocked & airplane mode switched off Tasker turns mobile data on again.

3) When time is >6PM Tasker set backlight level to 1%.

With this settings I achieved my personal record with ~85 hours without charge with ~5 hours of Pulse's usage (twitter Tweetdeck, reading books with Coolreader, news with NewsRob, some internet-browsing).

Here is the screenshot I've done at that time:

I had 77 hours unplugged with 35% remaining battery. Greatest result, I think :D

I'm still on CM AIO v4 with apps\dalvik cache on local storage :D

As for battery usage, 2G network & turning off data on screen off rules! B)
