Hey guys
I'm experimenting with the Franco kernel (r89 currently) and I'm wondering if anyone has any info on whether one ROM or another is any more processor intensive than another and, if one is better, if anyone has any suggestions for battery friendly ROMs to run with Franco.
Cheers, Paul
GSM Galaxy Nexus
ROM - Cyanogen 9-20120312-NIGHTLY-maguro
Kernel - 3.0.8-franco.Kernel-nightly 89
Liquid gives me the most battery life.
And which AOKP? more details
Galaxy
Yeah, sorry, milestone 4, have you used it?

i cant comment on cm9, never tired it. im currently running milestone 4 and get great battery life. usually about 20 hours idle and 3 hours of screen to kill the stock battery. i dont have anything syncing except weather every 4 hours. No problems with kernel wakelocks.
Awesome, may try Milestone shortly. Is a kernel wakelock exactly what it sounds like, not waking from sleep?
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda premium
a wakelock keeps your phone from going to sleep properly when you turn off the screen, ie still using your cpu and battery. check out this thread about wakelocks. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1462020
Will do, thanks for the info, learning more every day

For battery life check the 4.0.4 roms or liquidsmooth. better battery and performance too.

OP uses the GSM variant of the Galaxy Nexus. There are no 4.0.4 roms for the GSM Galaxy Nexus.

i m using gsm version too and i m running 4.0.4. There are 2 4.0.4 roms currently modaco and foxhound with aokp modifications.
i have no issues with cyanogenmod (4.0.3) and battery life, though i do run a custom kernel (fugumod's)
I use CM9/Franco-kernel and have better batterylife then stock (4.0.1) but I have also heard thet 4.0.4 should be better. I'm hoping we soon get the source for 4.0.4

What rom do you currently have on your galaxy nexus?
just got a nexus and has kang rom on it. i want to know what the best rom is
battery life and such things.
THANKS BROS
AOKP and lean kernel. Fastest and best battery life.

AOKP and some kernel. I personally use Franco Kernel but look around and see what you like the most.
where can i find this rom? thanks for quick replies
Check the Dev section.
Goodluck!
Now with AOKP, use to be Slim. Both of them are great.
right now i think AOKP is the best. i used the official CM9 nightlies and there were pretty awesome, but still needs some features that i really need
Official CM9 Nightlies, Franco kernel.
Faster than the speed of light.

I'm using codename and just recently switched to francos 18.4 and now 18.6 kernel. I have zero complaints, the only thing I haven't gotten to work is Google plus hangout video chat but I haven't updated to the latest gapps yet. I bet I will try akop one day since it is so popular (maybe at milestone 4) but I have no reason to. Codename is killer smooth.

I was running ARHD but switched to the most recent CM9 nightly earlier this morning. CM9 is faaaaassst and so far no issues. Oh and I'm using the stock CM9 kernel.

When people say you have to try every from and find one for you, that's completely untrue for the galaxy nexus, once you try AOKP you won't change at least until MIUI is official for me

Definitely liking AOKP Milestone 3. Plenty stable for me, and adds some nice features not included with the stock ROM. Paired with GladOS 1.15 kernel. Butter smooth, ~3+ hours screen on time with the stock GSM battery.
apparently aokp is the boss rom
AOKP and lean kernel+ leantweaks

AOKP and Morfic Trinity kernel... I've been testing alot of kernel and trinity is by far the smoothest and as amazing battery life! And for those who use quadrant as reference ; I average 3700 on ondemand

Why is everyone who uses AOKP suggests other kernel? Is the kernel that comes with AOKP not good enough?

I personally got best battery life and smoothness using lean kernel after testing every other kernel. Different results for different people I guess so you'll have to try kernels out yourself and see what you find best

I've just switched to the Glados Kernel found on RootzWiki with AOKP, and it's the best combination I've tried so far I think.
Just traded my razr maxx for a cdma nexus. Obviously I know I'm going to notice a huge difference in battery life. So my question is what rom/kernel combos are providing the best results in battery life, speed, and stability. Feel free to bash me, but, please leave me your opinion ;-)
If your title states there is already a thread... why are you making another one?

Because I cant find the thread im looking for. Xda search sucks.
i like
aokp comes with faux123. its ****in sweet.
i always go back to imoseyons lean kernel
favorite rom is aokp.
oh check your pms
I'm on Liquid ROM 1.25 it's smooth and lasts whole day for me with about 40% left when I go to bed.
Hope this helps.

Liquid with stock kernel?
Why did you trade your max for a Nexus? I have an offer that's why I'm asking.
Development?
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda premium
CM9 + GLaDOS 1.28 ... CM9 is super stable with lots of features and it has none of the other bloat and bugs found in other roms out there (i've tried them all crack flashing and always come back to CM9) GLaDOS is simply the best kernel out there right now especially with EzeKeel's new Wheatly governor and vibration control ... best performance, batter life and stability ... if you don't know now you know
aokp b31 with franco r121, near 5 hour screen time and got me through full day too, with 14 left.
nothing surpasses franco kernel, and the best rom with most customizations is aokp. if u wanna go lite, try slimics with franco, also beast

AOKP 4.2.2 Milestone build and franco kernel Nightly #378 (Full Version for all features). Then a little tweaking and modding and your phone will be a beast!! Haven't flashed a new rom in almost two months that's how sturdy and bugless this rom is.

I recently flashed AOKP with Franco's kernel and my battery life dropped significantly. Before I was running MoDaCo 4.0.4 and it was really good, now its borderline unacceptable. Which ROMs are the best for battery life?

Personally up till a couple of days ago I was running stock 4.0.4 with Franco's Kernel AND his Kernel Updater app. He has this mod called HotPlug that turns off a CPU when the screen's off, very cool.
However with IMM76I I'm getting similar battery life stock, unrooted. I got better battery life with 4.0.4 and Franco's than AOKP and Franco's.
This might have been posted couple times sorry if it was but I need some help from you guys.
My issue:
AOKP - after sometime it just gets slow but awesome battery
Android Revolution - RUNS PERFECT! with Franco Kernel or stock does not matter
however issue is : battery dies to fast...
BAMF - after sometime roms becomes slow same as AOKP
MIUI - well the last version I tried was way to slow...
back in the day when I had GS2 the goal was to go from GB to ICS now I really dont know which rom to choose -_-
help apperciated thanks guys
roms dont really become slow over time
most likely you're installing too much crap with invisible background services. Do a wipe and install only the stuff you actually use, and research carefully before installing new stuff.
Liquid 1.35. Smooth, snappy and awesome battery life

Actually I have exact same setup with Android HD and its not getting slow at all , same amount of apps I mean everything is the same minus the AOKP custom settings any other way to improve battery with franco on Android HD?
You could try gummy. That's what I'm using it's quick and good battery.
This is the best. After trying many.

thanks good thread.
I have lately been running tests of different ROMs and trying to get the best battery life possible! I have tested out these ROMs:
Jedi Mind Trick X1
CM10 Stable Release 4.1.2
AOKP Jellybean 4.1.2
Slim Bean Unofficial 4.1.2
When i flashed these ROMs i did a battery calibration (off app from play store NOT CWM). And ran them on FULL Brightness, GPS ON, BLUETOOTH ON, and running on Wi-Fi! I opened up netflix and watched multiple movies (same movies for each ROM)...until the phone went completely dead. Here are the results i got:
Jedi Mind Trick X1: 4 1/2 Hours
CM10 Stable Release: 3 3/4 Hours
AOKP Jellybean: 4 Hours
Slim Bean Unofficial: 5 3/4 Hours
As most people know the Screen does use over half of the battery. So on this test the screen was on NON-STOP for the amount of time you see above. And 99% of people will not have their screens on for that long at one time. So this is the WORSE-CASE scenario for battery life. I was impressed mainly with Slim Bean and Jedi Mind Trick did good as well.
You may get different results than I did. If you are using a ROM that i did not test or you tested one of these ROMs above and got different results please post below your results.
I hope this helped guys
Thanks for this.... maybe i need to try out slimrom again

I used an unofficial version of it... http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1964944&highlight=slim+bean
I did do a battery calibration! I suggest doing that and you should have GREAT battery life.
Ok guys. I have officially moved over to the Galaxy Note 2. I no longer have the Galaxy S2 so i cannot add anymore support for it since it is against the rules. I appreciate all the help from this device thread and now you guys can see me at the GN2 forums. Goodbye Galaxy S2 Users
Personally I have the best battery performance, regardless of the ROM, by setting up CPU profiles. Basically you can set one profile to limit the to 432 (or whatever you want) while the screen is off and 1500+ while screen is on. I use ROM Toolbox Pro for this and get really good results. If your interested just do some searching on ROM Toolbox Pro and CPU profiles. Just thought I would share
How come no matter what rom I run my battery still juices super fast

AOKP B5 3/10nightly NOS V0.0.7
people say that doing battery wipes are useless? From my experiences, i have gotten terrible battery life with those roms. It must have been due to the fact that the battery was not properly calibrated.

Not sure if guys care about 4g speeds sbut this is what i got using edge only... Just used my phone for what it is. A source of communication. I also noticed better and more consistent call quality. Running an older build of cm10 back from October. Im sure I could get even more battery if i upgrade to stable
There's about three hours screen on time
