Hey all, I need assistance. I'm currently using cm9 beta and the battery life is horrid. I'm also using the Nyan kernel.
Anyone know of a rom/kernel combo that has long battery life and decent performance? Touchwiz or not?

It comes with Shadow so you should be all set. Or you could try Samurai if you like. Lots of people have great success with both.

Most have issues with wakelocks when they try to use their phone the way they want on any ICS ROM. Enjoy everything working and no greens in the super battery sipping The People's ROM. 4 Hours display time with 30% battery left on stock battery....hell yeah! One user reported 50 hours with over 30% left. If your phone prefers Samurai kernels you can always switch from Shadowkernel.

Because I tried all the ICS combos and you can't beat TW for battery life...period! Try The People's ROM for 2 days. I bet you will admit you get close to 50% more battery life. I have 4 emails syncing, LED notifications on, sounds on..all that I want without getting wakelocks up the wazoo.

A process that prevents the phone from entering deep sleep and causing faster battery drain.

Just put build 5 on my S2, and I gotta say, its pretty amazing. Its a lot smoother, and has some more options. But mostly, there is a noticeable difference of smoothness and look. I was crashing once or twice a day with build 4 as well. So, I am happy. What are your thoughts? Any other Jelly Bean ROMs that are better?

Goomanager. I myself am in love with this release. Everything has been smooth as butter. Implemented the usual build.prop tweaks for graphical glitches. CPU settings are all stock ondemand/cfq, went for 20-21 hours yesterday with 3-3.5 hours screen on time and that was my first cycle!! Of course no RR or SoDs either. Can't wait to see what whitehawk has in store for this update!

I noticed it in Goo yesterday, haven't flashed it yet though I think I'm still going to wait for the updated SBean.
This is the first aokp rom that I have tried and I am very happy with it. Everything is very smooth and fast. The only problem that I have with it is the lock screen. When I hit the power button the screen comes on really bright for about a second then goes back to the normal brightness level that I have it at. I usually have have it on the lowest setting. It doesn't always happen but most of the time it does. Anyone know how to fix this?

What are you using for a radio? Sounds like something is sucking the life out of your battery or you're in an area with crap reception and your radio is draining your battery trying to get a good signal. I myself am using uvle1 for a radio. I've had nothing but bad experiences using uvlh1.

Build 5 is working great for me. No issues so far and been running it for over a day. Using it with custom Kernel and OC. I must admit that its very smooth. My battery seems very good, wasting about -6%/hr, with WIFI on the whole time and messing with the phone constantly.

Set CPU governor to performance. Turn on all your radios and set brightness to 100%. Stream high def YouTube videos over 4g network. Use YouTube modded HD apk for faster battery rapeage.
Sent from my SGH-T989 using xda premium
High brightness, turn up min cpu clock, run apps that are hd and consume data (maybe a few at once)
Can I just ask why? Are you trying to benchmark ROMs or something (curious )

Calibrate battery if that's a new ROM give it a few days. My phone sucks battery no matter what kernel or battery. Just ordered an extended one a few hours ago. Hopefully, by the time i move to the fifth generation galaxy device, this retard battery issue will be solved
Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda app-developers app
If your are planning to get a battery extension i suggest get the 3000 mAh of samsung this Jan 5th that would increase your battery life up to 49% (i read that here in XDA idk where is it but its true ) and also try TRINITY kernel would be awsome if you done like it you could revert back to lean - its only a suggestion
EDIT:
Is this your 1st battery cycle in this rom? usually that is normal the following charging cycle would be stable from what you expect
Been using this for 2-3 weeks now I was hoping it would improve but I
it hasn't. I'll give trinity kernel a try, thanks.
