[Q] Most Saving Battery ROM

Hello, i want to ask about custom rom and stock rom that the most battery saving, could u tell me what rom is it? because my gio is really wasteful, its only standby for 6-8 hours
FYI : i have stock rom with S5660DXKP6

Jonas hendrickx rom has great battery life.
Sent from my GT-S5660

giopro 1.4 also has good battery life

Right now using CM7.2, lasts a lot longer than stock.

could you all tell me how long your battery life is? and is it stable?

Usually GioPro 1.4 lasted me about 2 days with regular use (some calls, angry birds, a little wifi usage, screen brightness level medium)
Not that bad of a rom, actually.

I tried different ROMs and for me, stock with custom kernel and the same settings across ROMs, it lasts the longest.
I tried stock, CM7 by phiexz, CM7 by squadzone, CM9 (GalaxyICS) and now I'm running stock with phiexz' kernel.
About 12 hours even with constant Internet access (WiFi/HSDPA).

Changing kernel? Easy peasy.
Run download mode, flash CWM with Odin, reboot to recovery.
In CWM, mount /system, install zip from SD, choose the ZIP with kernel and voila. You might only want to apply Superuser ZIP too. Pre-rooted kernel from phiexz doesn't appear to be really rooted.
And voila. NoFrills CPU control is there, Superuser is there. You've got control over your superquick smartphone .

Adrenaline ROM has a great battery life
Inviato dal mio GT-S5660 con XDA PREMIUM

For a ROM with good battery life, you could also try "Particle ROM". With low usage (a bit wifi, standard apps, no games) I get 3 days, sometime even 4.
madelgijs

phiex rom, no doubt

Adrenaline ROM really has improved battery life than stock.

This is the BEST, Hands down, most Battery Saving Rom:
It must be built from Source (Aosp) (Like GB, CM7, CM9)
And most of it depends on the Kernel

[Q] How can I maximize my HoX Battery with CM10?

Hey guys,
I'm currently running CM10 and I use my phone quite a lot. I got wifi and 3G on all the time, but I want to maximize the battery even further.
How can I? I only installed CM10 Rom.zip and flashed boot.img. Nothing about kernel (or does it do that automaticly by installing a rom...?)
Let me know!
Thanks!

try this and feed me back:
install the NCX kernel v10 b1, the AOSP version http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1873615, read carefully the steps to install, and wipe your cache
just complete a full charging cycle, which means drain the battery to 0% then charge it to 100% then start use ur mobile normally again, just tell me after a day of use, have u reached n3o's (the kernel creator) results?

Hi! I will try it.
Just a few questions..
1) Don't I need a Cyanogenmod10 boot.img, instead of the AOSP image ..? :s
2) Standard or extreme model?

I took the standard edition and also flashed the modules. Wiped all cache and stuff, except reset user data.
It just booted and now it has screen 'android is being updated, app # of # is being optimized"
And now it booted.
Guess that is normal? Anyway.. I hope battery is better now!

Yep, 9.xx is ICS based.
He needs 10&11 for JB.
And he needs a compatible CID for those...
Is he compatible I wonder........

Nope, not necessarily. For the leaked Sense JB, you need to update the hboot, which means you need to have a matching CID.

u can use faux kernel which is just amazing, you can see some people up to 6 hours screen time with wifi on, don't know if 3g will make a huge difference though

[Q] GimmeABreak for Desire HD ROM

Hi
I installed this ROM and there is an issue with the battery as the percentage keeps going down even when plugged into AC power(not usb).
Is there anything I can do about this?
Thank you.
Dilla

Sounds like a bad battery to me.
Which ROM were you on before?
Could you provide some more in please? Thanks

Hi and Thnx Guy,
I actually rooted my Desire HD for the first time using HTC_QuickRoot_1.1.13 after unlocking bootloader via HTC site. Then I flashed CWR via flashboot using cmd on PC.
After that I just placed the GimmeABreak ROM on SD card and flashed via CWR. Oh and it was stuck in HTC screen after this and after much reading figured out that I had to flash the boot.img via PC.
This is pretty much all I did. ROM works perfectly fine. Except I saw that the battery charges pretty slow. But I read that it takes 2 or 3 charge cycles to get optimum levels. BTW I saw an app that deletes battery stats files and recalibrate it. You think it would help?
Cheers mate.

maybe you can try wipe battery stats under CWM recovery..but i don't know if there are in CWM menu..
or maybe you might also try installing another rom..
hopefully can help..

Hi Jeamy,
Ya I just did that. I will wait and see. As I am a newbie here, I was wondering how can I harness the best battery life out of my phone. Because that's one reason of rooting and using custom ROMs in my opinion. I'm very happy with the first ever ROM (GimmeABreak) I'm using and how can I go about tweaking the phone to get the best battery life?
Thanks

There's a multitude of ways you can increase your battery life
First off, buy an extended battery, they're around £20. It helps a lot!
Underclocking helps a lot, especially when the screen is off. l usually set my phone to run at 300 MHz when the screen is off and also force it to use the conservative governor. When using the phone I usually set it to 700 MHz so it wont drain.
Undervolting is good

IMO..
if you one still want used that GimmeABreak rom but want good battery life..just do what GuyInTheCorner say..
but if you want rom with already tweaked for battery life..maybe you can try SVHD rom..but this ICS not JB rom, good battery life and stable too..

Thnx for that Jeamy. I will try SVHD as you recommend. So I believe via Rom manager if I choose backup and then flashing SVHD is correct? by backing up a rom does it mean it backs up apps, messages, contacts etc?
Thnx

i suggest better don't used rom manager to do that all...if you want to backup first..just do NAND backup (this will backup all inside your rom) from your recovery then wipe data/factory reset (except sd card), and then continue flashing new rom from recovery too..
hopefully can help..

No....what i mean with the Nandroid backup is backup Nandroid image through the Recovery that you used..like CWM, 4Ext recovery, or TWRP recovery..there's a backup option in the recovery menu it self to do backup all your android system and data that you used..
hopefully you can understand what i mean..

Battery drains my whole phone down!

Hi!
I'm new on this forum and YES I've read many threads about this problem with HOX, but I haven't found really something useful that have worked. I bought my HOX last week from a reseller so I don't got any guarantee on it. I wanted a HTC for the beats audio and the performance in this phone, but I had no clue about the battery prob, and this disturbs me alot.
When I'm playing a game on my phone it drains the battery from 80% to maybe 50% in 15-20 minutes and that's really disturbing. I've calibrated my battery that I read on this forum and it helped the phone a bit but not much..
Today when I surfed the internet I had 21% and i surfed maybe 10 mins and then it was 5%. I can't really figure this out why it's like this, I've read on the forums that it's maybe something with the Tegra 3 chip but does that problem still exist if i got Android 4.2.2?
I've thaught on installing a CustomROM to help my batterylife, so could you give me some examples and does my beatsaudio function still work if I install a new rom?
Thanks in advance and I hope you can help me with this!
Regards, Christoffer

if you're going on a custom rom.. its definately better compared to a bone stock rom.. but if you're going for a sense 5 rom.. don't expect too much.. maybe 10% increase?.. for some reason i just find the old sense 4 roms better in terms of battery and stability.. just my opinion though..

U have to have the Echoe Creations App to get it...

You can get it at the echoerom website. It first gets released on the echoe app then publicly later on the website. Highly recommend getting the app though and support development. 7.8 was just released

For me 7.7 sucked my battery down.even while plugged in car charger streaming. 7.8 doesnt. Again what i experienced.
Sent from my 0x1 Note 4...... I love tep

+1 for 7.8. Buy the app. Support the developer.

does this kernel have the zerolemon battery fix in it?

Staying with the kernel topic. Does anyone know if any of the AEL kernels support OJ6? I'm currently running @tx_dbs_tx stock rooted OJ6 rom. Thanks..
And I do have the AEL app.

Battery life for me was average, but I also had a ton of apps and crap on my phone too. If kept minimal with greenify it was decent. Personally I felt earlier versions held better battery life. As far as their forums go I was able to access it through Tapatalk.

You can also vary a number of settings including governors with Synapse that will increase battery life, increase speed an responsiveness at the expense of battery life, etc., etc., You can get it to behave just about any way you want. Last time I messed with it, I was getting phenomenal battery life. I just recently went back to non-rooted stock to take the OK1 update. I'll re-root and re-install AEL again when I get around to it.
