Ok so I have flashed a few roms and now my battery seems like its on a drain suicide mission. I used the same Rom for a week had great battery life with sinister Rom tried cm7 and flashed back to sinister for example my phone has been off the charger less than 10 minutes and its drained 11 percent already.
What's going on? It was so stable.

Search the word battery calibration.
I found switching to sense and aosp a lot messes with the battery stats

Look for viperboys rom in e3d dev. There is battery calibration info in there that I just tried. It takes about 3 cycles to complete but worth it.
Support TrevE !
Well now I'm getting random reboots too I think I just might go to my first nandroid right after I rooted my phone and start over

I'm using myns rls5 and have flashed every kernel that I know of and my battery life just sucks. Something like a 10% drop every 15 minutes...I do use my phone heavily through out the day. Can anyone please point me in the right direction for what I should or need to do. Thanks in advance.

Are you using an extended battery?
Swyped from my EVO running CyanogenMod 6.1 Nightlies
What did you wipe before you flashed?
Also, it's becoming more and more clear that this ROM takes a while to settle in (weird...I know). I used to get abysmal battery life with RLS 5...and now it's gotten ALMOST as good as RLS 4 was

Cm7 cause the others are built from the same source and most of them all have a little cm7 in them anyways.

Is salvage mod cm based?
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App
I like kings rom. It is fast and the battery life is great.
i would honestly say the best Gb rom is Savagemod1.1
I used savagemod 1.0 for the longest because, it was the most stable rom.
It has working: 4G and GPS, it's quick and snappy.
As a matter of fact I just flashed the 2.6 Savage kernel and I'm having the HARDEST time draining my battery. I've got 4g on, wifi on, blue tooth, wireless tethering, live wall papers, pandora, and the flash light on and it's literally taking forever to die. At the current rate, it's supposed to live for another 4 hours... >.<;; I want to kill it so that it can charge from the beginning, (rambling lol)
Yeah in the end. If you want a quick, reliable, and most of all stable rom. I'd go with SavageMod 1.1
I like to stick with the originators, the real og's in the game and thats cm.

No. Its aosp based.
I'm currently on cm7 nightly 14. I picked it up and felt no reason to flash after that. What I love about it is the battery life, I'm always wondering how people pull off these ridiculous numbers, but I can get 30 hours of light usage with the clocking governor on conservative. It also has a bunch of awesome cyanogenmod settings specifically. These are awesome, I have gestures on my unlock screen to turn on torch and go to spring pad and such. It's fairly fast and smooth. I ran MIUI for months and loved it but it eventually started acting up and slowing down and I missed the android look. The only thing that takes trouble to work every time is gps. Oh btw wimax is blazing on this rom!

Getting wrecked on AOKP,5 hours with 2 hours screen on. I don't really understand what roms are compatible with placebo scripts. What should I switch to? Links are dead for GB blazer 4.1

Something must be terribly wrong then. Try a new download and flash maybe? I'm getting 18-20 hours with this ROM. About 5 hours more than CM9 and this is with heavy use.
Try downloading BetterBatteryStats to see if something is keeping your phone awake.

Yea I don't understand either. My battery will drop 30 points in an hour and a half.

These is something running that is draining your battery, it is not the rom, like the last poster I as well have always got good battery on aokp.... as previously suggested download better battery stats and use that to figure out what's eating your battery, should be an easy fix
Sent from my SPH-D710 using xda app-developers app
I was super out of date with my aokp. So I flashed milestone 6 and I'll wait for the kernal to settle down. So far it is better battery I think. Anybody know of those placebo scripts work with aokp
Sent from my SPH-D710 using xda app-developers app
Why not jist give aokp a few days first. Consider undervolting as well. It makes a difference.
I had an old aokp build I had been running for about a month and a half. I was running codename back when TCP was ironing out builds. I'm not bashing aokp at all. I'm still on it and will give it a few days to settle down. So far, it already has better battery life.

Hey so I recently tried cyanogenmod 10 nightly for T-Mobile. It is such a beautiful rom. But after I watch like an episode of my Korean drama I lose like 30%!!! Its to crazy.. I was wondering if any of you guys could recommend a nice/cool rom with an excellent battery life comment !

It doesnt always depend on rom it depends also of ur settings and usage..

Those Korean dramas can be so damn enthralling. I'm ashamed to confess that I had neglect my family for weeks on end watch that crap.
As for better battery life, you'll have to try one of the many TouchWiz Roms. CM10 is still in beta hence horrible battery life. Try turning off unnecessary syncing and decrease screen brightness for improved battery life.
My settings such as WiFi is always off. I don't really know what else to turn off. I also turn GPS off.

I've been using the freegs3 rom with the Trinity kernel and its so smooth and I get great battery life
Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda app-developers app
FrostyICS has my vote. V1 in particular. (V2 was a bit less battery friendly for me, and i have yet to try V3)
So far today I am at 13 hrs, 4 hrs of playing music (local not streaming), 2hrs screen on, and currently w/ 34% left with default sync settings. Of course YMMV as all phones behave differently.
You should do good with pretty much any Touchwiz based ICS rom. They are all good and each have their own strengths. Just check the features of each OP and try the one that sounds more like your ideal rom. Also read the last few pages to see if there are any current issues which are dealbreakers for you.
You really can't go wrong with any of them!

I am currently running Paranoid Android 2.16 with lean kernel and those 2 together have RIDICULOUSLY good battery life. It died after 39hrs of light use yesterday. Standby is almost like it doesn't use any juice at all. About to upgrade to PA 2.5 now

Likely not the rom. Use "battery mix " to monitor battery use. Flash a kernel, like "hotcakes", to further improve battery life.

Yeah I'm in the same boat. As much as I love cm10 I've been looking elsewhere because of the battery life
PA rom!
(yes phone is plugged in and at 35 percent....but below...94 percent used in 36 hours with 3 hours screen time. can get 4 hours plus...but obviously only about 12 hours then. Gsam keeps last unplugged stats on screen til you unplug charger and it resets. Look at average....over a day)
