congrats & heres some tips: no to task killing, screen brightness to low. & lastly, flash Void rom from XDA if battery is of top priority.
Good as its. When you flash froyo-GB or vice versa, wipe battery required
wiped battery when i flashed Nessy rom.
idk. BTW, i felt no improvement. instead it lags sometimes (like power scrolling contact list or going from screen to screen). better stick to 1st kernal.

why need title?
I would highly suggest not to use a task killler.. not even many devs support it..
tks bharat
but my android system & android OS use lot of battery ..always top 2
any idea why & how to decrease its consumptions ?

of course important apps will restart.. but doing that often is not good for the cpu is what i read somewhere on xda.. i used to use it but then stopped it after a couple of weeks and din't notice a great difference.. there is a software called fast reboot which could be used to restart the services which simulates a reboot of your phone which works good.. go to settings-applications-running services to stop unwanted services (like maps or music when you don't use them or after u use them)... btw r u still on stock froyo? because stock has unwanted applications pre-installed..

My Optimus One has been giving me problems...
1. Sluggish Performance
Phone becomes sluggish, apps force close sometimes. Facebook app, NDTV app, Youtube app... you name it. Today morning, I was using Engadget app. I used it for a few minutes and then closed it. Then around 2 pm, the performance got very sluggish. I was on a phone call which wouldn't disconnect. Then I checked the notification... Watchdog said Engadget was using 74% system resources at 1:53 pm. This is just crazy... the app was not even being used.
2. Battery
I did the battery recalibration process as was detailed on this thread yesterday. But the battery drain continues... I cannot get 12 hours on medium usage... No Hardware acceleration, no overclocking...
I am a bit disappointed with the phone...

What ROM are you using ?... Have you overclocked your device ?.... I am using a Beta ROM ( CM7 Beta6 by Mik_OS ) and I still get 18 hours at least ... so 12 hours is a little shoking ... maybe it depends on ur use ... So post ur useage and the ROM you are using ...
For the best battery life, u need to do this:
1. Get V10B and flash it to ur device
2. Root the device using Super One Click Root
3. Install Recovery
4. Flash Mik's kernel to minimize touchscreen bug
5. Install Titanium Backup and freeze default LG bloatware ....
noja
Bang! Bang!
I am running stock rom v10b.
I am using the default task killer and I use it only to kill opera mini, bollywoodji, astro our any other app that I have installed on my phone.
ndtv app and other website related apps are not that good and have compatibility problems on many phones.
apps like music, keyboard, memo, maps, calendar, flex provider and clock should not be killed. also phone will not get damaged if you kill tasks

thats really bad & sad. the problem started suddenly? i think time to shift to new ROM. Nessy or Gingerbread or maybe new Beta6 of CM7?
looks like some apps are sucking the battery. have you force closed any app or tried any app from outside (market) source?
safest way to good battery life without sacrificing performance.

I use Void Echo with a few modules... gapps, a2sd, tapps... I charged the phone 100% at night. In the morning, the battery drained to 73%. No live wallpapers. Wifi On, GPS off, EDGE off, Sync off.
Till afternoon, with medium usage, it was 23%...
Yes... I agree... I should jump ship. CM7 is out of beta today... Engadget said that. Hopefully, in a week or so, it would be ported to O1...
I checked battery status, most of the battery is consumed by Android System (60%).
Cheers!
