Most people will tell you to that there is no solid answer, you just have to flash kernel's and test because no two phones are alike.
A kernel that saves battery for me might not save battery for you. Also, give it about a week for your ROM to get used to your kernel. If it drains fast, re-flash another kernel and repeat until you find what fits.

^agrees^
me personaly i tried a couple of different ones and the one that works great with me is http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=10772235&postcount=101 this one was tweak with a battery saver script ..... give that one a go if you want to but give it a couple of days to settle in

I have always used baked kernels, there are plenty of options. Baked speed, baked battery, and the one used In 1.9, Hero laptop kernel, works great as well.

i am beyond surprised this thread hasn't gone up in flames yet..
please, from now on, post questions in the Q&A section. you'll most likely find better answers there.

try this rom, its the fastest
Is there any way to put up like a warning screen that only DEVELOPERS should be posting new threads in the development forum? Like when you click new topic something pops up and makes you do something annoying that forces the user to actually read that their inane question does not belong in the development section?

NO you are WRONG! Seriously this is getting old! Read the forum rules before you post! Post in the GENERAL section!
Mods please get rid of this!
so where should I post my root questions? in general?
I understand I shouldn't start threads here, so a place to ask my questions would be nice. I was told general is not for root questions
thanks

Dont say that... we try to help everyone we can, and we try to make the Rom better for YOU. I normally keep my nose out of things but this is going to far. Say what you want about the Rom or me, but our team tries really hard for YOU. They're good guys.

Agreed, your ROM is amazing. The ONLY thing I don't like about it is the design of the user interface and notification bar...the gradients are too harsh and it doesn't blend well. Keep up the awesome work, just please try to improve that a little bit
Also if you're ever in need of someone to help out with designing the UI, I'm down.

Hi,
For battery tips try this thread:http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1599025
For the best kernel...There is already a few threads about this question in General/Q&A sections+the feedbacks in the different kernel's thread in Development section...
It's depend of your usage,settings,etc...With these kinds of questions you will probably have 10 different opinions which may not be useful for you...
The best is to read for yourself and test...Just my opinion...

[Q] Bug free roms

Can you guys please help me find a ROM (4.x.x) that is completely bug free? I had to ask this question because I wanted to upgrade from a long time ( I am on 2.3.3 phantom rom) to ICS or JB but all I could find is either alpha or beta version of roms. Most other are direct derivatives of these buggy versions. Something does not work or something is broken in most of them from what I read. So if you can help me by suggesting some roms that I can upgrade to with out experiencing bugs that would help me. Thanks!

I am sorry but I did not get that... Are you suggesting that this is not a good question? Well can you suggest me some rom with minimum bugs at least? Thanks.
Simple and straightforward answer. There's NONE. With less bugs you should ask.
Try some, if you like keep it, if not keep trying. Doesn't hurt to do some tries and research.
But seriously: In Before The Lock. :beer:

If you want a stable and full functional JB flash FL16 o GA10
If lyou like AOSP flash a CM or AOKP flavor there are other (note there are various bugs nothing big if you can deal with it.
If you like Stock modified too many to mention one but a heard a kuban named rom is awesome.

Wow.. I'm pretty disappointed at the negative comments here.
Don't flame it is against XDA rules, no matter what the question is.
Thread moved to Q&A.
Any of the new jb leaks fk23 thru ga10 are pretty good dd if your looking for something along the lines of touchwiz based roms if you like something different then you can try out cm10.1 which Im reading has very good feed back its all about your preferences on what you do with your phone if you like playing with tweaks or if your just someone that wants a simple phone to make calls on ect ect. Theres alot of roms out there that have minimum issues my suggestion is look thru the threads check out the screenshots if it looks like something you may want to run do some light reading thru the thread and see what people are reporting as far as issues.

Sorry you feel that way.
But in the history of the e4gt forums, such threads have not been very fruitful.
Few reasons..
-A bug I experience with a particular ROM, may not be experienced by someone else.
-Something not working on a ROM such as MHL on a rom may not be a big deal for me but may be a "major" bug for someone else.
-Lastly not all developers think alike and some may not be happy when their ROM is not mentioned in such threads..
Thats why such threads are always closed by Mods in this forum. Thus all the negative comments.
Im pretty happy with the one click oden FL16, i might try out the new version. If you want working wimax stick with stock/ touchwiz roms. All ASOP, AKOP, CM10, CM10.1 roms say there 4g works. but really all it does is turn on and look like it works. You will only experience blazing speeds of 750k.

While I understand that, the better way instead of filling this thread with negative comments is to explain that. Then after that, you could report it and link to a thread discussing it :good:
I like cm10.1 right now. If you want something pretty bug free and easy to install get the fk23 or ga10 one clicks. They are pretty much test otas from what I can tell and work well. They are tw based but they got a lot of the ICS and Jb features.

Advice on choosing a bare bones ROM

I'm setting up a DInc2 for my technically challenged mother. I'd like to install a ROM that is easy to understand and straight forward. But my biggest concern is that the ROM be extremely de-bloated and very stable. I would appreciate recommendations as to which custom ROMs would be best suited given these parameters.
Thanks in advance!

We would all appreciate a post in the right section. How come no one reads the rules when they sign up?? Maybe I'm weird, but I thought that was just a common thing.
To answer your question, go with cm7. Its super light weight, and can't really go wrong with it.

Should this rather have been posted in the General section? Since this involves custom ROMs I figured this was the place, but I'll be glad to abandon this and ask in the General section if that is appropriate.
In any event, thanks for the recommendation.

This section is for *development*. This probably should have gone in Q&A, since you're asking a question. There's also 400 of these posts already. Please don't make another thread though because this one will likely get moved.

New phone! Looking for ROM suggestions

Just got the s3 coming from the Blaze and I wanted to know what anyone could suggest as a ROM and Kernel combination for best battery life that has the least issues/bugs. I am in the process of rooting the phone now and I know I have some reading to do as to what rom does what. But I just wanted to hear some suggestions as to what Rom is the most battery efficient and least buggy. Thanks!

It's a little dated (4.1.1) but of all the roms I've tried, this is the most stable, and if you do what the OP says to save battery, you can go for a couple days with no charge. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2070955

Why not close the thread as its a "best ROM thread" which are closed daily?
At OP I have a ROM Guide stickied in the threads, read that and other stickies and you shouldn't have many questions after that.

You got it!
No one uses their phone or goes through the same signal strength areas as you do OP. So what may be good for someone may not be good for you. You have to try what you like and see. Then read the thread of the ROM you chose for battery saving suggestions. There is NO such thing as a best ROM for battery life. They are all good for the people using them.
