Is it possible to make a Touch Wiz Tablet Rom?

Are Touch Wiz based tablet Roms possible. I noticed that touch wiz Rom get superior battery life and have better Rom tweaks but, I love the Tablet interface. I just wish I could have the best of both worlds. Click thank you if you think this is a great idea.

I really love the tablet interface but currently the AOKP tablet Roms are battery hogs. If you are luckly you might get 8 to 10 of battery life but with the touch wiz Roms you will get 24 to 30 hours almost 3 times the battery life. What is the reason for the difference in battery life?

Maybe because we don't have source yet? I also thought AOSP roms are battery hogs when I was running cm7 on the fascinate and Touchwiz was unbearably slow on that phone until jt1134 and team hacksung started to building ICS from source then AOKP came then battery rivaled Touchwiz but with speed. It change how I saw AOSP ROMs. I'm just patiently waiting for that to happen on this phone and I have a feeling it will, with our amazing devs now, I just hope none of them jump ship to another phone before it happens

They are all pretty much the same IMO. The screen sucks up juice so keep it off as often as possible lol

If you want the latest software, most stable, and best battery life ROM, go with MMuzzy's AOSP ROM. Using it now, and its amazing
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda premium

ROMs themselves rarely ever have an actual impact on battery life. Most postive effects for battery come from the kernel, and negative ones from rogue apps.
Before you ask which kernel offers the best battery, it really depends on the requirements of the user and the phone itself. You'll just have to try a few.

Flash it like you would a ROM. Make sure you find one that is for the version of android your ROM is based on. I would suggest tying Franco kernel, but there are many good ones.

FYI....this thread goes in general.
Flash kernel in cwm the same as you would have a rom. Be sure to clear cache/dalvik first.

For the moment the ROM with the best battery life is SlimRoms 2.7

I've tried many ROMs and Kernels with no success in the battery life department.
My phone charger died so I downloaded an app...Easy Battery Saver...my phone was still at 34% after 1 day and 7 hours. I was NOT heavily using my phone but still this is the best battery life I have ever experienced. I was always on the "battery saver apps are useless" team until recently.
Don't get me wrong, I'm still flashing
Just love my new app.

i tried miui, pa, vicious, aopk, smooth, and now using cm10. tried out different kernals too,but at the end, all the roms cant pass 1hr 50mins of screen time.

Hmm.. thats strange. I'm on MMuzzy's ROM which is pure AOSP and I get around 2 and a half hours of screen time. And some people around the forums have gotten around 5 hours of screen time with different combinations of ROMS and Kernels.

I have tried numerous roms, if not all of them for the galaxy nexus, and there is a difference between roms, even using the same kernel.
I have been getting amazing battery life using Eclipse.

The mods can move this thread, but in the mean time, it is a good question.
I used to get some awesome battery life. VZW + 2100mah. Typically 4 hours screen on time was normal.... now I'm lucky to get 1hr. I can't remember if it was the jelly bean update or the inclusion of Google Now.

Does letting the ROM settle really help? I have been getting terrible battery life out of my 2100mah. The battery just drains when the screen is off. No rogue apps, but this is a fresh install as of 24 hours ago

I believe use what you like as long as you use Lean Kernel you should get good battery life.

I wasn't going to put my 2 cents in but because there are so many complaints about this being in the wrong place, I just have to now.
I have tried many different ROM's and kernels and found there always seems to be the "right" combination sooner or later. Right now I am on AOKP w/Franco M6 and getting about 14 hours with 24% battery left, 2.5 hours screen time, mostly LTE and moderate phone use, best I have seen of any combo for me on this ROM. For CNA the right kernel for me was lean kernel. A little experimentation and patience and you will find that sweet spot soon enough.
Edit: the whining drew me to it, sucked me in so I couldn't stop myself from answering

If someone can get 4+ hours screen with mostly 3G, let me know. haha.

Wrong section
However as for battery life slim ROMs work great but I'm on jbsourcery built in trinity and I've definitely had worse d: the only ROM I've used that's had has battery is pa however they've had multiple updates since then so I'm sure its not horrible now

CyanogenMod 10 was just released as stable for us, I believe soon enough they will develop and overclock kernel and we'll be all set.
However, does anyone think that a downgrade to HONO Full Throttle is worth it for the ability to overclock? From what I understand, it is a small OC of about 20% to 1.86Ghz. Does it really make that big of a difference?

If you want try it then make a backup and test it out. Full throttle is a step back and I prefer the JB ROMs. But its worth a shot. Just watch your battery stats with OCing, Typically a higher CPU uses more battery.

Full Throttle is my daily driver. It's a small OC but it's better than nothing. My Antutu score hit 7200 and my Quadrant averages 3750. I also OC the GPU even though its default is already OC'd. The battery on Full Throttle is FAR better than any JB ROM I've used, so far. On a normal day (txting, couple calls, browsing, ect) I get about 20+ hours w/ 3hrs of 'Screen On' time. It may be a downgrade, but it's best I've used. I also have my UV settings set to best battery life w/out causing reboots. Love Full Throttle! Patiently waiting for HO!NO! to commence dev work and see what else he has to offer.
EDIT: I just leave the OC stock @ 1728Mhz as well. I tried 1836 but after playing a game for a bit it overheats and reboots. Also doesn't pass a stability test @ 1836, but every phone seems different on what clock it can handle..

Okay, I've tried both.
From a very limited usage, I am going to conclude that CM10 stable is currently the better ROM. Being able to overclock ~20% on an older ROM does not actually match the performance boost of upgrading to a new, more efficient ROM. Now if only we had more developers for the Nitro.

Wait. So u asked today if it would be worth trying Full Throttle, and now you "have" and conclude cm10 stable is better simply b/c it's newer? JB is smoother, yes, but I seriously doubt you gave the Full Throttle ROM a proper run (2-3 days). My 4 days of cm10 "stable" was riddled with reboots and battery drain equal to about 7%/hr. Smooth, yes.
EDIT: If you haven't tried it, pA 2.5x is pretty cool. It's based on CM10 stable now. The battery life is horrible, but there wasn't any annoying reboots.

I beg to differ on the reboots... actually, no. I call them random shut-downs. Had 3 since flashing 2.55, but I'm still sticking with it. X0dus, I just don't understand how you get so much better battery life on FT than any of the CM10 variants. I'm not disputing it, I just don't get it. If anything, the experience I had as far as battery life goes was about equal. In fact, the best battery life I've gotten so far was on an earlier, buggier version of CM10.

About an hr and half screen on time w/ stock battery. Not a normal use day due to 10hr shift but still use

Mother of God... that's absolutely insane. Even with the Hyperion extended battery I couldn't get that kind of time... I don't do much calls or texting, no games, but I do a good bit of web browsing. Even on FT I couldn't pull those numbers.
Although I did pull something like 1 day 6 hours on that CM10 version I mentioned earlier... had about 3 hours screen on time.. but again, extended battery.

Nice. I love the performance of JB but I can't give this sort of battery life up. All JB ROMS drain is terrible for me. I swear it's the uv'n I do with FT that helps. If I go any lower with uv I get reboots.

Get Most Battery Life Out Of Your GS2

I have lately been running tests of different ROMs and trying to get the best battery life possible! I have tested out these ROMs:
Jedi Mind Trick X1
CM10 Stable Release 4.1.2
AOKP Jellybean 4.1.2
Slim Bean Unofficial 4.1.2
When i flashed these ROMs i did a battery calibration (off app from play store NOT CWM). And ran them on FULL Brightness, GPS ON, BLUETOOTH ON, and running on Wi-Fi! I opened up netflix and watched multiple movies (same movies for each ROM)...until the phone went completely dead. Here are the results i got:
Jedi Mind Trick X1: 4 1/2 Hours
CM10 Stable Release: 3 3/4 Hours
AOKP Jellybean: 4 Hours
Slim Bean Unofficial: 5 3/4 Hours
As most people know the Screen does use over half of the battery. So on this test the screen was on NON-STOP for the amount of time you see above. And 99% of people will not have their screens on for that long at one time. So this is the WORSE-CASE scenario for battery life. I was impressed mainly with Slim Bean and Jedi Mind Trick did good as well.
You may get different results than I did. If you are using a ROM that i did not test or you tested one of these ROMs above and got different results please post below your results.
I hope this helped guys

Thanks for this.... maybe i need to try out slimrom again

I did do a battery calibration! I suggest doing that and you should have GREAT battery life.

Ok guys. I have officially moved over to the Galaxy Note 2. I no longer have the Galaxy S2 so i cannot add anymore support for it since it is against the rules. I appreciate all the help from this device thread and now you guys can see me at the GN2 forums. Goodbye Galaxy S2 Users

Personally I have the best battery performance, regardless of the ROM, by setting up CPU profiles. Basically you can set one profile to limit the to 432 (or whatever you want) while the screen is off and 1500+ while screen is on. I use ROM Toolbox Pro for this and get really good results. If your interested just do some searching on ROM Toolbox Pro and CPU profiles. Just thought I would share

people say that doing battery wipes are useless? From my experiences, i have gotten terrible battery life with those roms. It must have been due to the fact that the battery was not properly calibrated.

What is the most stable Custom ROM you have installed on your GS3?

My sister is annoyed with the battery life of her GS3 despite how good it as been next to her old iPhone and she wants to squeeze more juice out of it. She's not as tech-savvy as most people on this forum so I'm looking for something that is as stable as it gets.
Thanks in advance.

I wanted to solve the same problem for my wife. I installed wanam Rom. It still looks and feels the same but it more than doubled her battery life over stock Rom. She hasn't complained since.
Ps. I wouldn't recommend putting her on cm10, AOKP, or any Aosp Rom for two reasons, she will most likely miss touchwiz features she is used to, and she will probably run into more problems with some stuff not working.

Task's AOKP ROM is the ****

Really liking Liquid Smooth. Great battery life very customizable. Second choice would be Serenity.

Task's AOKP ROM for me. Though I did have battery life problem as my phone was awake all the time. I wiped it clean and had only a few widgets, and add juicedefender app and my battery life was much much better. Maybe it's not the ROM but what your sister has on her phone?

I've got a SGS 3 now and let my wife have the SGS 2. The first day I had it I got 4 hrs and 7 minutes of screen on time on the stock ROM. That was texting, checking email and surfing the web. I don't have a lot of apps installed such as facebook etc... and I don't keep it synced to google servers. I rooted it but am sticking with stock for now. Seems to be doing well.
