one1002: Thanked because your post contains useful-for-newbies commands, however, he explicitly said he didn't unload it, which was the point. It's supposed to be just a slightly patched driver, the battery drain was him reporting what happens to him with it.

Some important questions - how long did you sleep that night; do you use the Advanced Power Monitor package; did you ever use power kernels before getting the one that came with this package?

Because in my experience, Advanced Power Monitor + Power Kernel (with that one special battery driver/module that comes with it that lets you see temperature of the battery's sensor and one of the other values you can only get that way loaded) yields drastically off results. About 5-20 percent under-reported, actually. So it might display 0.04% battery for an hour (or two with not-constant use) before actually hitting that-low of a point). I use conky to check the 'actual' battery value (I can tell you what command line command I use), until I get off my *** to look through Advanced Power source code again, and write/submit a patch.

Yes. That's exactly what you need to do, actually. That's what Multiboot uses to know it can load that kernel (and, I think, it might put the kernel image where Multiboot can find it).

owh..but i thought monitor mode and modules are different things?

if you are on monitor mode, u cannot access WIFI connection until u turn off monitor mode..i guess monitor mode doesn't effect battery life that much..correct?correct me if i'm wrong.. =)

however, leaving the modules (injection) loaded will drain the battery faster..

would u mind experiment with it(given u have neopwn +v40-wl1 installed)?i can't experiment it because i am on V46 now...

so i'm hoping that anyone who has V46-wl1 (custom injection kernel) would try experimenting this..

based on my experience previously, leaving the phone with the modules loaded DID drain my battery....

thanks, Mentalist, I'm assuming that i'll need to edit the multiboot .item file as well. Will report back once i make the necessary changes and try to reboot.

Side note: The package kernel-power-bootimg is also included but not needed.
yes the bootimg is included..but i don't know how to add it into multiboot..lol..

Just run the .deb file for it (should be in the same place as the other files for it), presumably after you've run all of the required .deb files. I don't use multiboot, so I can't say about what you need to do in the .item file porselinheart mentioned. It should be mentioned countless times if you (power)search "power kernel multiboot" (Optionally include "not showing up" - since this is a problem people have had with power kernel since multiboot came out.)
