I was wondering what you guys found as a good ROM was for battery life. I know everything is different for ever phone but I would like to know which ones had general success in that aspect.

It looks like a lot of people seem to like Team Sonic's FreeGS3 ROM. You should check it out on the android development forum, it's the one with 1 million+ views.

I use the goodness rom and it is great and it looks really good also
And of course there is The People's ROM. I think all are good choices. I am sure a moderator will close this, so I'll say you need to just try the different ROMs and see what works best for you. Be sure to give each ROM a couple days to settle and then make your comparisons.

In reality ROMS donr set the precedence for battery life. User and kernel are the determing factors. So like stated find a Rom that works well and then start reading and learning what tweaks users are doing to elongate battery life. But by asking this question I feel I should ask why not leave your device on the stock rom?

Root it, Flash rom, Test drive to see what it's going to do for you. That's the only true way to determine. Yes, this will soon go to rest with the other threads started like it. YMMV on ANY ROM.. Stock or Not.
Flash, and try some of them! It depends on the usage! Also gotta give the ROM time to settle, and do battery cycles. The only way to find out is trying.

....ahh here we go again with "that" question...the one you will neva eva eva get a straight answer to....my advice?.....READ, READ, READ, read, read, and read some more and when you feel comfortable make a choice...try it out...if you are not happy...try another...and so on and so forth...
I believe they are all great ROMs but there are some YOUR phone is gonna like more than others...that's the best answer I could give you. Luck homie.
That to me is an unaswerable question. Its like asking what undys should I wear today to your buddies. Not really a question anyone but yourself could answer lol.
Ok im teasing don't hate me lol. I guess what I mean to say is what ever rom feels that meets your needs.
I have flashed over 5 roms in the last 3 weeks and I finally found one that fits me. DS Rev.7.
I suggest to flash a few and see which one is your favorite. Or just keep flashing til you burn something out lol.
Hope this helps

I so agree with you bro.... the devs are just doing all of this for free. Which ever any of us use is just icing on their cake. To them it just means that their knowledge has paid off.
Too many choices out there to make one single decision. Carry 1-2-3-8 roms in ur card. Choose a diff one everyday of the week. And one day it will make its mark that the one your using will meet all your needs. Until then........ PLEASE!!!!! Read instructions and follow devs install guides. Their there for a reason. Don't be one of the many that post treads about how they didn't research and ended up with a paperweight.
Thats my .02¢
Sent from my SGH-T989 using xda app-developers app
I don't mean to sound politically incorrect here. But I don't think devs do this for us at all. If I had the talents to dev my main reason for developing would be my own personal gains in being able to improve the experience with that shiny new device I've been wanting. Then after I would upload my work for anyone else if they wish. Hopefully cash in some sweet donations if my work is THAT good. But I will never ever believe that devs do it "for us". All devs are hackers. And hackers all hack for the same reasons. Personal gain and attention. Just my 2 cents.

It supposedly makes the rom smoother and manages ram better. Can tell you that there are several threads discussing whether or not it is worth it. My opinion is that it is not at this time. The rom and the phone compliment each other very well.

Hmm, maybe someone with experience using this should benchmark it on a Modern ROM and let us know what the results are. I've seen people swear by it in the past, but have never seen much in the way of the results backing it up *Grin*.

V6 seemed to help on the OG epic.. I haven't attempted on this phone due to (as what is stated already) us having enough Ram to compensate. The OG epic was slightly lacking in that department lol
I use v6 on every ROM I run. When I first looked at the OOM settings on this phone they were so low nothing ever got killed until a few hours later. At first I thought v6 wouldn't make a difference like it did on my Evo because this phone has plenty of RAM but I feel like it did after running the script.

There is a banned ROM/Kernel that's way closer to being pure AOSP over anything else.

Also, does this banned ROM have a smooth handoff between 3G/LTE/WiFi?
I ask because I have flashed several AOSP and AOKP ROMs and they all seemed to struggle for signal strength (thus, draining the phone battery much faster than a TW ROM).

So I know that ROMS aren't only for looks. I know they're good for making the system run smoother and heard in some cases, it can save battery life. But unfortunately I never liked any of the looks of the ROMS. I remember having CM10 at one point and crying to get back to the stock ROM. So are there any ROMS that are better for the phone but still give you the original S3 look?
Yes, and you can find them in the Dev forum.

Hello everyone,
I'm new to the forum and new to smartphone enhancing. I'm currently running build 6 of AOKP 4.2.2 on my AT&T Note II along with Apex launcher; its been a killer combo for me so far. I would like to find a good kernel that will run nicely at 1800. I haven't been able to find many kernels compatible with AOKP however. Anyways, I just wanted to say hi and I'm glad to be apart of the community.

Welcome Matt! I don't have a kernel suggestion for you but I can tell you what most developers will tell you... You don't need to OC this device. I ran mine Oc'd for the first couple of months and it didn't do anything but drain my battery faster. Just a suggestion.
But if you're dead set on trying it out I'm sure you can find something in the development section.
