In your experience, which ROMs have given you the best performance. I was using Jellytime R29 and I could go almost 12 hours with normal usage before having to tether it to a charger. Now I have RC4 installed and it barely makes it past lunchtime. I'd go back to R29 but i'd like to have a speakerphone.
What are some of your personal experiences with battery life on the Inspire 4g? Also, I purchased a brand new battery for this unit so that's sort of out of the question.
Also somewhat related, is there a way we can run benchmarks so that we can post our results of battery life on a normal day. Like is there an app that sort of oversees the battery and prints out a nice report.
Better battery stats.
I have a ROM with great battery life. It's called the 'see all the ROMs for yourself' ROM. Seriously, read the damned rules. lt's forbidden and frowned up to post threads like this
Push that thanks button if I helped!

Really, a post like this is frowned upon? That's odd, i'm asking a question to other folks of their experience. I'm doing my own study now but it would be nice to hear from others and their experiences. Thanks for making me feel like i've done something wrong, but I don't feel like it.. I know how to use the search, I use it quite frequently here. Love this site btw, but I would appreciate it if you'd post something relevant to the question I posed instead of be a forum nazi.

Half your question - how to monitor battery - is a reasonable question. However, the other half, which is what us "forum Nazis" refer to as "best ROM threads," tend to:
1. Be highly subjective. Each person's need/want and each phone (yes, even though the models are the same) is different.
2. Because such questions are so subjective, these threads (which do pop up a lot) tend to simply devolve into flaming and unconfirmed opinions. That is why mods usually frown upon and close such threads - to head off the mess.

Can you try using Google Maps with GPS, something using a lot of cell data, and making/receiving a phone call all at the same time?
I have a hypothesis that some combination of heavy use of the Qualcomm chip causes it to crash when undervolted
I am starting to think the admin should give people like this one warning and then start implementing temporary bans.
The title of your thread starts with the word "Question," and you didn't think this belongs in the forum with "Q&A" in its title. Really?

About 14 years ago when I started using Internet forums, I got flamed pretty hard for posting questions to stuff that was already answered. And for the rest of my life, I have gotten SO MUCH MORE out of every forum I ever visit by knowing to search first, post in the proper forum, etc. It seems Android forums have a "100% tolerant" attitude which, in the long run, cripples the forums and makes them harder to use, and reduces the useful-info-to-clutter ratio tremendously.
Answering people's questions that have been asked and answered hundreds or thousands of times before does not help them! Give a man a fish, he'll eat for a day, team him to fish and he'll eat for the rest of his life...
SEARCH THE FREAKING FORUMS, people, and POST IN THE PROPER FORUMS!
Oh, what am I doing. My post here won't make a lick of difference anyway

Answering him encourages this kind of behavior. If you can get away with it with only a small warning, why not do it?
So I've noticed there are a ton of kernels out there for the GN, and I know you can't exactly say which is best...but I'm looking for the one that has the most support or is the most stable right now. I just got mine a couple days ago, so I'm looking to root and ROM it (no stranger to android or rooting/ROMing) and I figured those in the community would be able to tell me which ones are basically dead and which ones are not.
Thanks in advance!
There is no best they are all reliable and all updated. Pick one or stay stock.

Haha well that's a first. Most of my previous devices had only 1 or 2 main kernels that were constantly kept up to date, and the others were just attempts to make one, or ones that went defunct.

mods can we start issuing bans for these threads?
Trinity and Franco have a lot of users and their threads are very active - should be able to sort out any issues you might have. Also both kernel devs are pretty active in the threads as well. And both have choices of extremely stable builds as well as experimental ones for the more adventurous. Try out each for a week or so and you'll get a good idea. There are others too, obviously, like Lean and Air Kernel etc but I've spent the most time with the afore mentioned so I can't speak for the others. I'm currently on Trinity 1536/384-stable35 and I can honestly say its been going wonderfully well.

id rather have mods ban posts like yours. stop reading these threads and responding in them. you are just making it worse for everyone, not the tread starters. this IS why we have a general section and Q&A. xda search is not reliable enough anyways. imagine how many posts could have been saved by you not responding/not responding in this way. if your going to respond, at least be helpful to the op.
@jdcnosse my preference is for trinity, but both trinity and franco kernel are good, and they are both constantly getting updated. but i suggest you try as many as you can so that you can find one that your device likes the best.

Really? This isn't posted anywhere near dev section. Let people give their advice on kernels and ROMs. No big deal. People trolling is what I dislike. I've reported you to the moderators for being disrespectful.
Let's keeps these posts non argumentive and let's keep them informative. I see no issue with them.
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda premium
+1 on experimentation. If I were to give MY choice. It would be Trinity. I have stuck with it since I got my phone. I've tried a few, but I enjoy Trinity the best. Franco, as stated before, is another good choice. I've used both their kernels on my Nexus S with good results

I know im going to get flamed on this for making 'another better rom for battery thread' but ive been away for two weeks and i see some new roms are out for jellybean, i am currently rocking AndroidMe Cm10 rom, but would like to try a different rom for better batterylife. (its not the best as is ..) i know you guys are going to say every device varies but chances are what most people are getting better battery life on so will mine... so what would you guys reccomend? i really dont want to revert to TeamGummy 4.0.4 (ICS) but if i cant find a better batterylife
well, a better battery life is mostly up 2 the kernel, screen brightness, wireless and network usage, other settings r just familiar of most roms.
though ice has a better battery life than jb, i think
the GUMMY doos have a good battery life 'cause it's using the imoseyon kernel:good:

Not trying to flame you but you answered your own question in the OP. Every device varies along with the way each person uses it. I don't have any technical expertise to fall back on when choosing a ROM so it's mostly a trial-and-error process. Flashing a different ROM or kernel is fairly simple, so just experiment and see which one gives you what you are looking for. I rarely, if ever, got the same performance that other users reported when I had my Evo. And lastly, read what other people are saying about a particular combination. XDA has no shortage of people willing to try out new things and let the rest of the community know how it worked. The last 3 pages of a thread are usually the best place to look and see what kind of success/failure rate is happening.

Hello fellow XDA Member!
This thread will serve as a reminder of why we decided to keep our phone stock. Tell us your reason!
So, I made a promise to myself. I will keep my bootloader locked, phone unrooted, and stay away from any real customization. I have tried many ROMs, kernels, etc and I have yet to find a better configuration than stock.
Feels free to comment if you believe aftermarket firmware is better than what Google tested and approved to be used on our device.

Lol, no.
Are you trying to create a thread where people just argue?
Its much easier to troll with a stock phone? This is like going on a car website to ask who likes riding bicycles.

Stock ROMs do not feel as sluggish because they are odexed.
Custom kernels make your device act up sooner or later. That's the reason why those threads have MILLIONS of views and thousands of comments. Troubleshooting never ends. Besides, if these kernels were really making an improvement on user experience, Google would hire these people, right?
Custom ROMs, is that extra navigation button or battery percentage worth all the time you will spend flashing new versions, reading XDA, helping other members troubleshoot? I have always noticed that person A creates a ROM, person B is the #1 fanboy which spends all day in the thread answering all kinds of questions and dismisses any reports of problems with his Master's creation. Person A barely communicates with person B.
I could list more...

thank you OP for ignorantly venting your personal issues with custom roms on xda. No, custom roms likely are not for you since you are looking for stability and out of the box usage. Custom roms are for those who are looking to learn and develop and push the boundaries of our devices. As with any rom here YMMV.
This will undoubtedly go nowhere. The reason why we are here is to improve our phones and our experience with our device. So you will get a lot of members that will not take kindly to this, so I am going to close it before it gets to that point. Thank you for understanding. :highfive:
Just wondering if it's possible to install the International N7100 version of the CyanogenMod 10.1 Android 4.2 Jelly Bean ROM onto our T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II (SGH-T889)?
If not, is there any way to port it, it shouldn't be that hard from the looks of it since they are almost identical hardware except for the LTE chip in our phone (some ROM's like the original ParanoidAndroid ROM even left support for it out, an LTE-supporting ROM being out seperate)
Really prefer the new camera and lock screen in 4.2 (running it on my GSIII right now)
What about the n7105 roms?

All this thread needs is the community to respond for an example.....

So hard right?
Yet so many people here think if they respond to something that they deserve a thanks???
So annoying the amount of you who have "If I helped hit the thanks button!?!?!?" lame so lame.

The reason no one replied is:
1) a quick search would show we have CM10.1 (android 4.2) already.
2) a quick search would answer the question showing porting has been tried, and work except for audio, blue tooth, kernel, radio (basically made your phone useless)
Basically the thread was useless and from almost a month ago.
Your attitude towards others leaves a lot to be desired, and I am hoping this is not your normal attitude as we have enough self-centered people who desire to have their every question answered on a silver platter, though most don't think it very hard to hit thanks when the answer helped.
This community is first and foremost designed for developers and people who have the mindset of helping themselves and others, not for those unwilling or unable to spend 5 minutes looking for the answers to their questions.
