Anybody know any NICE Roms with GOOF BATTERY LIFE ?

Hey so I recently tried cyanogenmod 10 nightly for T-Mobile. It is such a beautiful rom. But after I watch like an episode of my Korean drama I lose like 30%!!! Its to crazy.. I was wondering if any of you guys could recommend a nice/cool rom with an excellent battery life comment !

Those Korean dramas can be so damn enthralling. I'm ashamed to confess that I had neglect my family for weeks on end watch that crap.
As for better battery life, you'll have to try one of the many TouchWiz Roms. CM10 is still in beta hence horrible battery life. Try turning off unnecessary syncing and decrease screen brightness for improved battery life.

My settings such as WiFi is always off. I don't really know what else to turn off. I also turn GPS off.

I've been using the freegs3 rom with the Trinity kernel and its so smooth and I get great battery life

FrostyICS has my vote. V1 in particular. (V2 was a bit less battery friendly for me, and i have yet to try V3)
So far today I am at 13 hrs, 4 hrs of playing music (local not streaming), 2hrs screen on, and currently w/ 34% left with default sync settings. Of course YMMV as all phones behave differently.

You should do good with pretty much any Touchwiz based ICS rom. They are all good and each have their own strengths. Just check the features of each OP and try the one that sounds more like your ideal rom. Also read the last few pages to see if there are any current issues which are dealbreakers for you.
You really can't go wrong with any of them!

Well just installed it taday. But there was a leak of it and battery was good. I would get about 13 hrs and about 3 1/2 hrs screen time. Im a really heavy user. From 1-10 I give it a 10. I think everybody running this will agree with me.

Just to warn you, I got horrid 3g speeds with fk23...But I think it could be an area thing...

fi27 and f127 modem with agat fi27 v0.6.8 with the rom call lightweight 0.5 its great I get around 9 hrs heavy uses sometimes when I im bored I switch to a backup of jb fk09 tweaked signed I get about 8 hrs heavy uses

Awesome, thanks for the reply! Just wondering, can you define 'heavy'? I personally use my phone at school all the time, I listen to music through headphones about 1/2 of my total day(4 hours or so) and I will also spend a lot of time texting, browsing the web, and using apps that use data. I'm honestly constantly on my phone, and will have to charge it around 3 times per day.

Right now I'm on miui trying it out for the first time getting used to no app drawer. Favorite ROM for a daily (if I had one lols) would have to be Living Rejects. I flash it at least twice a week. Its pretty much my goto when I need a good solid dependable ROM for GPS and coverage while traveling. The battery life is effin amazing and music come out really loud and clear. But I will say once our beloved devs get cm10/AOKP/PA etc running solid for jb I will prolly be going back to PA or try out KK again. I love the UK customization options. I ran ICS aokp as a daily until jb started seeping its way into my veins now I'm flashing like there's no tomorrow can't wait for volume bug fix ^^

[Q] Questions about kernels

I'm new to Android. I made a few posts on here making that abundantly clear (lol). I am just wondering, what exact part of the OS is the kernel? For example, I'm using LiquidSmooth with the default kernel that was included with that. If I were to flash the ktoonsez kernel, what changes would I see? Also, could someone point me to a site where I can download the KT kernel for LiquidSmooth 4.2.1 JellyBean Beta 2? What other kernels are there? What are the advantages of using them? And finally, where can I find them?
I'm looking for a way to conserve battery life right now, but not take away from how my phone currently looks. Sorry for asking such a stupid set of questions, but I'd like to know about this since I plan on sticking with Android. And if that's the case, I wanna learn all about the neat things I can do to make my phone customized, sleek looking, and effective.
Thanks in advance for helping out this new comer to the Android scene

The kernel is the interface between the devices software and hardware. Its basically a bundle of drivers and code to tell the hardware and software how to communicate. All computers use a kernel from windoze to OSux and Linux. Android is based around a modified version of the Linux kernel. You won't see any visual changes when you flash a kernel. And you can find em here in the development or original development sub forums
Sent from my SPH-L900 using Xparent ICS Tapatalk 2

Cool thanks for the detailed explanation. I never really took the time to look up the exact purpose of kernels in an OS but you just explained it to me perfectly.
So, are there any kernels that are better for say battery conservation and performance?
Sent from my SPH-L710 using Tapatalk 2

That all depends on your settings and usage. Theres no one way to get the best battery and performance for your usage, mostly just trial and error trying out different settings and tweaks til you find what works for you. For a good battery performance balance undervolting and overclocking work well. For instance I'm on a note 2 and im overclocked to 1.8ghz and undervolted by 75mv across the board and get almost identical battery to stock, however I still gain in performance without sacrificing battery. Now if I drop my clock rate back to stock and keep the undervolting I get same performance as on stock but my battery life increases by a few hours.

Awesome, installed the KT kernel and used the settings listed in the Kernelizers thread. I also installed DS Battery Saver Pro and now my battery life is amazing. Left my house at 7:05AM this morning and on my way to work over the course of the hour my battery dropped 3%. Usually, my battery would drop 10% - 15% during this time so I am VERY happy with the outcome.
Thanks for all the help guys

CM 10.1 is good. I have personally been using LiquidSmooth 3.2.1 beta right now (Android 4.2.1) and it has been very good. Very stable and good battery life, if you keep location based services turned off. On my most conservative usage, this is my best battery life: http://www.twitpic.com/bw26dx
On heavier usage, I can go about 18 hours average and still have about 30 percent or so left.

I actually Just flashed liquid smooth like 10 minutes before you posted that lol.

Thanks for posting.. this thread will soon be closed like the rest with the same question.....
User's mileage may vary on ANY rom. Best thing to do is try one and see how it works for you specifically. Hit the Dev section, find a rom that fits your needs, flash and try it. Great thing about being rooted... Possibilities are endless! Don't like a rom, flash another! Thanks for shopping. Please come again.

What do you run on YOUR s3

First let me say this. This thread is NOT a what rom is best. This is just to see what everyone runs on there phone.

So far I think staying stock is just as good as running a developed kernel for this particular ROM imho, especially when you want to get the most battery. I use SetCPu and will run min 486 and Max 1350/1404. SmartassV2 and Zen or cfq governors. I don't play many games on my phone, I have tablets for that and they are tweaked as high as I can go and be stable. It's all about what you use your phone for, most times when I benchmark it seems the higher frequency I push my score actually will get worse, might be I'm need to up my voltage, but I don't mess with voltages much. I will follow the developers guidelines for undervolting if I'm trying to squeeze that extra life, but I don't worry about it that much. Best way for me to extend my battery life is start turning things off when they're not needed. All the things I try with my devices I have learned by reading on the XDA forums, and by far the developers for our GS3's are the best and I'm very thankful for all they give up to give us these awesome roms, kernels, and not forgetting about the theme developers to make or phones run fast, operate smoothly, and look great. Without them might as well buy a fruit product, just kidding I would get a flip phone before I would do that. .... This was meant to be a quick reply, just got off a 14 hr work day and I'm just rambling a little, I hope my reply makes sense.
