I just recently purchased an xperia play and was wondering based on other people's experience, what is a good ROM and kernal for optimizing battery life?

Is there an program for debloating or do I need to remove the bloatware manually.
If I have to remove it manually, what do I remove?
We do allow recommendations for ROMs/Kernels, at the end of the day everyone has different opinions depending on their use. Please head over to the development section try some out and see which best suits your needs.

I'm new to this rom flashing thing and I've been researching but i have a hard time finding a list of ROMs and their functions.
what are some battery life rom and or kernels?
mind you, I put stability as my top concern. So I'd like something that gives me a longer battery life with as few bugs as possible.
As a side note, what are some performance kernels and /or rom?
Thanks!

You must have accidentally missed the rom list (bible) that is stickied in the general section during your search.
Re: good battery rom and/or kernel for t999v?
FYI, the mods will close this type of thread it's kind of taboo to ask about which roms/kernels are good or bad.

Unfortunately there is no definitive answer. Everyone has different experiences with different Kernels/roms. So the best thing you can do is flash and give it a shot. If you flash The People's Rom, Get 3 kernel choices. Ktoonz is usually the default because there are several tweaks you can make in there (See http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=38932752#post38932752 for info) Most achieve excellent battery life and stability. Again YMMV depending on how YOU use your phone. So give them a shot.. see what you think.
Hi!
This is my first post on the xda Forums; I've just been a lurker for a while now. I am still learning the ins/outs of Smartphone modifications/rooting/roms etc, so forgive my noobyness.
I've recently (two days ago) Rooted my Rogers S3, and Flashed Paranoid Android 2.55 Onto it. I'm loving it! However The battery life is something I'm not too keen on, so I've been lurking google for hours upon hours, forums etc, and I'm seeing that a popular Kernal people are using to cut down on battery drainage + Smoothen things up, is LeanKernal.
+
Now, I've poked around quite a bit, and I've read through something like 75+ pages of this topic: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1845836
But just for the sake of not Bricking my phone / Digging a hole I'm not educated enough to get myself out of; I'd like to ask:
Is LeanKernal what I am looking for/compatible with, my P.A flashed Rogers S3?
Or any other tips for me?
Much appreciated!
Lean kernel is compatible with AOSP ROMs. The developer should have a clearly-marked download link.
That being said - if you can't find the answer you're looking for by yourself, don't flash it. It's very easy to brick a device by making one small mistake.

Lean kernel is designed for aosp ROMs but the new ones are based on a different Linux version. If you install paranoid android 2.55 with the newest lean kernel it will never boot. You need to either find am older lean kernel or flash the newest paranoidandroid.

I read people were using lean kernel 1.6 for paranoid android. I'm more than willing to try another compatible kernel if anyone has suggestions for a smooth one that can help with battery life extension

All the kernels get updated frequently. I'm using the Paranoidandroid 3.15beta and Tasks latest Underwear kernel and it's working fantastic.
Battery life if device, app and user specific so you'll have to just experiment.

that's why I am asking for a recomendation based on what I'm currently using. rather than reflash a different ROM for the time being I'd like to find a kernal to use with what I have

Edit.....
I don't think you can use that one. It's for 4.2 not 4.1

Go to settings > about phone. If android version is 4.1.2 use this. http://www.mediafire.com/?99f7dn0gya0bb20
This is the latest ktoonz kernel for 4.1.2

Awesome. Ktoonz was another I had been looking into, and heard good things about; so thank you very much for your help Korguy123. It's appreciated, and sorry for my noobyness XD I'm working on Levelling up so to speak haha.

Don't apologize. We all start somewhere. When I get off work I'll look into which lean kernel you can use. Give ktoonz a couple charge cycles to see how it's working before you start tweaking any of the performance settings.

you should read the threads and decide yourself reading user reviews and stuff and best option is to try yourself, new phone go start flashing all of them
my opinion - as of now all roms are doing great all are smooth, personal favourites - paranoid android and rasbeanjelly, combine it with ak kernel your phone will fly
Thread closed as its a Best ROM thread.
The past week, I've been trying to find a rom and kernel that would increase my battery life. I use my phone for many different things. However, I gave up trying to do so and I am reverting back to the stock rom and kernel, as I have heard that it gives decent battery life and offers the best stability. The only problem I have with this is that the stock rom is no where as smooth as aosp roms. Sometimes it laggy and it loads stuff slowly. Any way I can get around this? I know it isn't a big deal, but to me it makes a big difference.
In my opinion use a custom ROM based on stock firmware.and just test.

Believe me, I've tried. I haven't tried all roms, but what I do know is that I love custom roms because they are quick, responsive, and offer tweaking and customization. However, it isn't as stable and usually for me doesn't offer good battery life.

Yes, I have tried much of what he listed in his thread.
I basically posted a new thread that relates to this topic so would a forum mod please close this thread.
