oh and one more thing. one week back, when my phone showed like 0.4 percent battery, i could go on for like MAX 3 songs then dead. now after overclocking, at 0.4 percent, it played music for 1.5 hours and took some snaps off fcamera then died. though battery IS poor after overclocking but it is weird as well.

Two things:
1. The kernel module bq27x00_battery DIDN'T drain battery like crazy. It just caused some software to read incorrect values but battery was NOT! draining even SLIGHTLY faster. The solution isand rebooting your phone - then battery widget and status bar and EVERYTHING shows the same and correct value.Code:sudo gainroot echo "blacklist bq27x00_battery" >> /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist
2. You ignored all my questions and requests from my previous post and without answering them, I will not be able to help any more in this case and I doubt anyone will be able to add anything worth attention here without your answer to my questions from previous post.

- removing extra protocols
- disabling extras-devel and extras-testing and leaving enabled just normal extras repository (just for a while)
- refreshing application lists from repositories
- installing extra protocols, so you will sure you have the version from Extras, not from Extras-devel. Version in Extras is tested and reported stable.
- re-enabling extras-testing and extras-devel if you really want to.
Also, don't update extra protocols support later, as it will download version from extras-devel, which may cause battery drainage (because some part of conversations runs all the time, even when you don't use Conversations application).

It is bug known to power kernel dev (devs?), because it was reported and discussed in power kernel thread earlier. It will be probably fixed somehow in future power kernel releases.
