Battery life is terrible

[kenstar]

That's like taking it straight off the charger and not using it according to the 3% display. I can prob get that off my stock battery.

Writeup is here. Go comment, add things I forgot, etc. We'll ask a mod to sticky it once we feel it's more or less complete. It's long, thanks in advance for reading/critiquing.

Edit: Ken, I doubt the BP6 would read 100% for 15 hours after an unplug. But you're right, I did almost nothing with it. Which is why it's abnormal. Which is what I wrote in my post. Just showing what it CAN do. That 14.5 hours is more than some people are saying they get on a full charge.

Bp7x is around 1860mah, so no more than 1.5 times bp6x's 1350, then 6xers should get around 10 hours of standby with almost no battery drain.....but acturally we cant. sign.
btw what's the name of the app on the top left corner shows battery percentage? Looks cool.
