4-) if nothing above was the problem then try to reflash and test
if the problem still on then you do have hardware problem
Thank you!

Not in that order but i will try them.

I have taken out the memory card to see hwo that helps.

Just put the stock kernel back on & reinstalled power kernel.

The RE:flashing might be difficult because i'm on 7 64bit and the flasher just doesnt work on it

I have tried an old back up and restored from backupmenu &that made no difference.


if the memory card does not help i fear it maybe a hardware fault.

I am having an issue where my battery drains overnight. I have attached a battery graph. Note the minimal CPU usage. I also had the phone in airplane mode. Battery almost gone overnight!
I am running kernel47 with ULV voltage overclocked to 700 mhz.

(Note, large CPU usage at 9am is a bug in battery graph, turns into a signgle spike when i scroll battery graph)

I removed "Advanced Power" (and "Advanced Power Monitor" just in case) and battery life is now EPIC. Easily lasted me 24 hours with regular usage, probably could go longer.
