[Q] Rom with great battery

Hi all I'm still very new to this whole rooting stuff.
I'm using aokp build 38 this is the 1st Rom I've used
And lately I'm having a much better battery life than stock. But I just want to ask if there's a much better Rom out there that has great performance and battery.
Also could you name the Roms and what are so good about them?
Thanks in advance.

Everyone has a different opinion on this. There is no one rom that gives each phone good battery. Your best bet is to just try them out yourself.

Oh okay. Thanks what would you recommend?

I personally like liquid smooth ROM and Airkernel

I'd recommend the redemption Rom.
The Dev claims that he is only fixing errors created by Google.
Ans he's right. 2 hours screen time v 4 hours is the way to go.
It's also notably faster and doesn't randomly reboot to often.
He does a video changelog for his rom. Which I believe is a characteristic of a dev who is proud of his work.
But whatever you use. Use it for at least a week.

Would be good to also mention what phone model. Gsm,Verizon,sprint.

With these kind of threads, you might as well just ask what everyone's favorite ROM is or what ROM they're currently using. You'll only rarely get a different answer, and there are already threads for all three subjects to begin with.

Guy above me has a point.
But, AOKP B39 and Franco M4 works wonders for me.

AOKP has more features sacrificing some high performance.

Other than possibly in benchmarks, where's the performance difference between AOKP and CM9? I've tried both and currently run AOKP and I didn't notice any difference it performance between the two.

MCR from Paul Obrien over at Modaco. Together with the Franco kernel. Great performance and battery-life

Wtf is wrong with stock? I run rooted stock and I'm completely happy with it. What exactly is she using the phone for? If she isn't an enthusiast like most of us, she wouldn't be able to tell the difference. If all she is doing is texting, using social networking, watching videos, and talking, stock is fine. If you're feeling risky, experiment.

She likes the themes and toggles. She's been hooked since cm6

I would guess CM, but I don't know how far along in development CM10 is. I'm sure there is something out there. There are just so many ROMs it isn't even funny.

Personally, if you want stability, I'd rock CM10 or AOKP.
Many of the others are simply mashups if the two; and while that isn't necessarily a bad thing, I put my full trust in Roms who have written the majority of their own code rather than Cherry Picking commits from others.
In the long run, it's her/your choice.
But I've had great success, personally, with AOKP.
That being said, my bread-and-butter may not match yours.
The best bet would be to teach her how to flash Roms herself so she can try each one for a day or so.
Post two of the guide in my sig would be a good place to send her.
She can then get herself up and running; and won't have to continually rely on you.

I've been running AOKP nightly builds and recently their official Build 1 and haven't had any problems even though I've been lazy and dirty flashed the last two updates. +1 to AOKP JB Build 1

How about Eclipse? I've been running that on Jellybean for a long time, totally rock solid.

CM10 and Trinity. Good battery, performance, and everything in between. But try stuff out and see what is stable for you. battery life varies from phone to phone.

Code name android with 384/1344 trinity and she will be flying

Look through the dev thread and see which ones have what you're looking for. AOKP and CM10 variants are probably the most popular.
Try AOKP, Euroskank and/or official CM10 then go from there.
What were you using on your previous phone? Try that if it's available.
I am currently using BAMF and really like it but I've tried about 6 or 7 in the past month so I may not be on it very long.

SlimBean is remarkable, especially battery life... CodenameAndroid for complete custom-ability. Muzzy for stock AOSP.
You're welcome.

Eclipse easily, for me at least

I'd recommend the Vicious AOSP rom. He should be coming out with a V2 any day now. It's basically stock JellyBean, but runs great.

sadly they dont have that for the toroplus heck we dont even has rasbeanjelly

People, he asked for most popular ROM, not the best ROM....
OP: I don't have toroplus, but CM10 is definately the most popular ROM out there... AOKP is another one.

The same ROMs that were popular on the ns4g.

aokp with trinity or franco kernel is butter smooth.

I can't see past stock jelly bean after flashing countless ROMs

Please can someone try and change my mind because I'm only disappointed and let down every time I try one .

What exactly are you disappointed about? Try the latest official builds of cm10 or aokp. Not a nightly or a kang.. an official build.

Try Paranoid, it looks pretty wild!

SHHHH!!!! You're not allowed to say that!
I've done the same as you. The only change I've made to stock is run nova launcher to make it a bit more purdy and personalized.
Minco is pretty nice since it's really close to stock but faster, but in the end I'd rather just run stock for peace of mind (not that Minco was unstable).

Stock based roms perform the best in my opinion. Although Bamf Paradigm and Wasabi Miui run well for me, if I run them with trinity 1344 kernel.
IMO It seems like CM and AOKP stay in the nighties phase for way too long, and bugs and stability issues take too long to fix. This has been the case on most phones I have owned. They are great innovative roms though. I find it rare when a Rom with loads and loads of features runs as good as stock based roms do. I love having features, but performance, stability and battery life are above all features for me. I can just find mods myself anyways and add them as I need.

If stock is what works best for you, run stock, there's nothing wrong with that.

Why do you want people to change your mind?

The last ROM flashed was team baked black ROM it was OK but the force issues became very annoying .I was just asking am I doing something wrong when flashing ? I don't seem to get the same user experience from using jelly bean.There is only one feature I've used that isn't stock is fast reply which I think is brilliant and will definitely be in 4.2

Fast reply, I don't even know what that is but anyway, Android comes down to user preference, if you enjoy stock, then rock it dude, I've tried only a handful of roms here but stock gives the most solid performance 9 out of ten times. granted I'm running Slimbean now, but I like to flash every two weeks and this rom is pretty great aside from bootup time XD.

i just hit 260h with no reboots. custom built from src, JRO03R, maguro. rock stable so far. gcc 4.7.0.
just saying, stock can be rock stable, and still be fast and responsive, if you're willing to tweak it and spend time testing it.

I've tweaked till the cows come home but I think Google have totally cracked it to be honest and early reports about 4.2 seem to suggest they've went one more step in terms of speed and look .The quick reply feature is in cm10 when you receive a SMS you get a pop up window at anytime so you can instantly reply ,must be enabled tho .

i love love love stock Jelly Bean. That is what i run, so i suppose i also can not see past stock JB.
i wouldn't say i'm "disappointed" in any ROMS I've tried, just that i personally have found no need to move away from stock.

I decided to give the latest Paranoid Android a try. I am running it with the latest franco stable milestone 5. Its running pretty excellent with no bugs so far. This is an instance of a non stock ROM running pretty well. They did good on this 2.17 PA build.

There are so many good ones. You really just need to take some time and flash a few. I was on Slim ROM with my cappie and again with my s3. Have been using Task650 and Ktoonsez AOKP and am really enjoying it.

Task & ktoonez AOKP is the way to go
Best rom around
Sent from my toaster

Task AOKP is extremely popular, and I must agree it's a great rom. I like CM10 and AOKP the most, but in actuality it all comes down to preference. I suggest you try them out for yourself.

Task and ktoonsez aokp is the best Imo. It's getting really polished these days as well.

Can't go wrong with Task650's AOKP project. I've tried out most of the other jelly bean ROMs here and his is head and shoulders above the rest. A word to the wise - by all means enjoy his work but read the original post at the start of the thread and always remember - the search feature here on XDA is your best friend.

Intergalatic , stock, stable 18hrs 3 hrs screen time and EVERYTHING works.

I'm a CM10 fanatic, have tried out a lot of other ROMs and always come back to it. Just went stable and 4.2 should be coming soon! Can't go wrong.
