Hello! In general terms the JB is better (on the batery side) than ICS right? On that basis, whats your opinion, about the combo ROM - KERNEL, that can handel the best batery life? I ask this because my work now keeps me away from a charge source for a long time...
I use CM 10 with included kernel.

Hi,
Can anyone give me feedback on the combo of liquid smooth rom 1.35 & lean kernel 3.3.0? I am looking for performance & battery life am not after heavy customization.
I am using stock 4.0.4 with Franco kernel 3.0.8 M2 and am getting about 3.5 screen on and 12 hours usage before I have to plug in.
Will the above combo give a better battery life?
Thanks

Personally, I use LeanKernel Stables exclusively.
They've always been the most fluent and the best on battery for me.
Haven't tried Liquid in probably two months...
But the users still vouch for it.
You'll have to try and find out.
However, the rom itself shouldn't have much impact on battery...
It's primarily kernel based.
So maybe you should try flashing LeanKernel on your current set-up and see if you like it.
The killer combination , Liqsmooth customization options + apex pro + lean kernel 3.3.0 exp 4 230 is just heavenly .
I will not compare between franco and lean but somehow i always manage to flash Lean after a rom upgrade ...
Used LS with lean kernel got 4+ screen time ..... good combination (telling from my personal experience)

+ don't forget to apply the GPS fix on Liquid Smooth if your flashing the lastest 1.35.

Is there a current ROM that is rock stable and offers good battery life? I don't mind if its JB or ICS but battery life is really important
Actually roms do not affect battery life, the responsable of battery dains is the kernel, in my experience I have tried only stock ics (rom and kernel) and battery life was decent, then I switched to miui with air kernel and with this kernel I have the best battery life for my use. You have to try different kernes and its setup because every user has different tasks to do with the phone.

Kernel is probably the cause of the battery drain, not ROM

try whichever you want:

as mentioned above
im very happy with franco's kernel ...you should try it...its stable and gives a great battery life
plus the all the cool options
IMO the best ROM isn't listed on this website. It is CodeNameAndroid. I know it is a ROM full of controversy and I don't care. It is by far the best one I have tried (I have tried almost every ROM), no others even come close. I am running it with the Trinity Kernel v35.
AOKP for ICS or ParanoidAndroid/CM10 for JB
as i m new to g.nexus i want to ask members regarding best combination of custom rom nd kernal
on stock jb i m getting 3 hrs 20 mins of on screen time.

Experiment! My current setup is in my signature. There is no best. I haven't been on the GNex forums too long, but my Nexus S was super picky with what I ran on it, so I just stuck with stock.
Hey
As a lot of you knows, we have some really annoying problems since the update on 4.2x , mainly concerning battery life.
I was bored to try differents kernel trying to find some that would give me an acceptable battery life.
I went back to a pure stock 4.1.2, stock kernel. I'll take a stable kernel, maybe airkernel (stable vers) or Leankernel for 4.1 JB, but i can yet say that my battery life is a lot better!
I simply would like to know if some of you made the same choice, for what alternative and for what reason
Edit:
And if you have a custom kernel, what is your favorite on this 4.1 JB version, i'm actually searching for the most battery friendly and stable one ^^
Thx!
Re: [Q] Who is already running 4.1.2 by choice ? :)
Im really thinking about going back to a older version since the lockscreen stuff, camera and lag are terrible.
Edit: cant believe i just wrote that i might downgrade the os.... But yeah 4.2. has been a verry bad experience so far for me:what:

I went to 4.2 for about 5 minutes.
The quick settings thing annoys me to no end.
I would happy try it again if I could just disable QS.

ooops
I saw 4.2.1
My wife and I both have Galaxy S3's, mine from Verizon (Work) and her's AT&T. I'm running the Jelly 'Beans' ROM with Imoseyons 1.8 Lean Kernel and the phone is great with excellent battery life.
What I need for her phone is a stock-looking ROM on the front end with a fast and stable back end with GREAT battery life. She came from an HTC OneX and her only complaint about the S3 is battery life compared to the HTC. I need something that I can flash and forget, doing constant flashes on her phone isn't feasible. So, what's the best ROM and Kernel combo for her?
For battery life and simplicity Liquid Smooth beta with KTOONZ kernel is what I'd run excellent battery life. Its my back up rom. I've had 4% battery drop in five hours. Very fast and stable no glitches at all.

If you want a ROM where you dont need to flash constant updates - stick to a TW based ROM.
Like CSRom or Dandroid
If i had to recommend a good rom i would say Vanilla Rootbox, it's stable with a good amount of features.

Another vote for CSROM. Great battery life (especially with Ktoonsez's kernel) and it's TW so she won't have much adjusting to do.
I think I'm going to go with CSROM with Ktoonsez's kernel. Thanks for the replies!
CSROM or i747z are great.

If you want to keep it simple, try Task650's AOKP 4.2.1 rom. Great battery life, extremely stable, no ridiculous theming, tons of setup options within the rom. Would be perfect for your wife, sir!

I'm running Task's AOKP on my AT&T S3. It's fast and I get great battery life, up to 2 or 3 days sometimes without heavy use. With average use, you can still easily get through the day.
CyanogenMod is a pretty good and light rom to start with.
but if you dont like constant updates, i'd say just stick with TW rom, the Samsung apps on there are pretty sweet, especially S Memo
Rom (Blackjelly): http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1883845
and
Kernel (KT747): http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1756776
Both combined give me a fantastic battery life along with great performance.

I don't know if you've made your decision OP, but most of these people recommend TW based roms. I agree with them. AOSP roms are constantly getting updated which is not what you want, so touchwiz based is the way to go. CSRom is an excellent choice and KToon's kernel is superb for battery life in my own experience. Just wanted to let you know that AOSP roms are not really what you should choose if you don't plan on flashing her device a lot.

Actually, you only have to flash a lot if those updates are important to you. I've been on the same version of tasks 4.1.2 rom for months, no need to update... most of the updates are tiny tweaks and updates, like lockscreen options, and things like that... as long as it's stable and fully functional (which tasks builds are infamous for being) just grab the latest version, flash and forget.

At this point 4.2.1 is still in early stages. I would wait a while until most things are fully functional and the only things being worked on are additions and minor minor bugs that don't affect performance to much.

I agree, this is why I just moved to tasks 4.2 aokp last night. It's flawless. Everything works fine so long as you follow his directions in the op.
