Wich rom and wich kernel for a better battery life ? - Verizon HTC One (M7)

Hello,
I'm looking for a very stable and smooth rom wich has very good battery life.
I'm currently with the last viper one and my battery life is not good in my opinion and I'm having battery drain with media server (already cleared all the sd card and still have battery drain but anyway even when I don't have the battery life isn't very good).
Maybe the stock one is the best one ?
Thanks for your help
PS : Also if you have any tips to improve battery life, it would be great
PPS : I don't expect a better battery life than what can actually offer the HTC One, just something good enough to hold 2/3 days in very light use and one day in heavy use (4/5 hours screen on)

NuSenSeven with the included kernel has given me the best battery life. I have also underclocked to around 1.5Ghz which I cannot even notice performance wise. I also run my screen as dim as possible.

Thx for answer I'll give it a try this weekend
It was even better than stock rom ? What battery life do you actually have ? (how many hours screen on, screen off...)
Any other suggestion ?
PS : I don't see any installation guide for this ROM. I just have to put it on SD card and install it with TWRP ? I am with international HTC One M7 s-on unlocked.

[Q] BEST COMPILATION OF ROM/RADIO/KERNEL for LONG BATTERY LIFE

Hi
Im going to summer camp and I can be long time without power. So I need best rom, kernel, and maybe radio for my Desire hd. I need rom with camera. Plz tell me wich compilaton have best battery life.
My 1st post, sorry for my bad english
In before someone scolds you for not searching
Radio is subjective to area.
A rom with great battery life without changing anything could be either black ice or gb rd miui. Both are close in battery life, and from all the roms miui has the best cam in my opinion.
Unless you are willing to buy a cam from the market.
Your best option is to test a few roms out for a few days. Get additional batteries cause no rom will go beyond a day with heavy use. On standby you would get two days, maybe more.
Edit: however I've seen some screenshots here and there of people with crazy bat stats. A few, but there are a few.
You can also look into v6 supercharger, there may be something there for you.
Sent from a dream.
I use Cyanogenmod 7.2.0-RC2 with LordModUE 8.9b7-CFS kernel, and it has a really great battery life.
My radio is 12.65.60.29U_26.14.04.28_M
I have set cpu governer to smartassv2, with min frequence to 122MHz and max to 1152MHz.
With these settings, the ROM runs smoothly without any lag, and I get about 24h of battery life if I use the phone normally: music (2h), call (1h), internet (?), GPS+Endomondo app (~1h30), Wifi (1h)

Is stock ROM less battery drain??

Which rom is the best [for battery life] between these one??
- cyanogenmod
- miui
- stock ics
All with the ultima kernel from riyal.

For me its KA21 with Arcknight 3.3 Stock Kernel.
Really smooth, better battery than i experienced stockwise...
try ICS_anzu_KTG tuned_V1.41: governor interactiv
actually battery drain more depends on the kernels..for best battery life stock kernel is the best
Guys note that lad has Pro not Arc. Stock is usually the worst, or better - default gauge for custom ROMs. I've been watching cyanogenmod discussion for a while, usually users feedback on battery life varied from version to version; for tweaked versions can be said that battery life is the same as in stock while the performance is 20% better. I don't know about MIUI.
(Out of your question, the best for battery life are Ultima ROM and Buttermilk ROM which are optimized for battery life and battery life is notably better there; with Buttermilk and low usage you can do as much as 4 days without charging - worth for outdoor trips. Ultima ROM when idle eats like 0,6% per hour.)
Stock rom with stock kernal had the best battery life... but also lags the most.
I recomend arconium ICS with stock kernal for a balaced experiance...!!!

Well if you game a lot compared to someone who doesn't then obviously ones battery will last longer than the other, so there's a few factors that can be taken into account in regards to battery life.

well my method of testing battery drain(i guess everybody tests the same way) is only on standby..how much time does it take to move 1% down when the phone is not touched for an hr or 2...in exceptional cases battery will drain fast while using 3G in one kernel but lil slow on other kernel..
again my point is kernel is more responsible for battery life of the phone rather than a ROM..

Then you need to take syncing into account, if yours is on and mine is off on the same kernel then yours may drian a bit quicker than mine, which goes back to my point of how a user uses their Phone. I don't think it's a black and white issue.

yea dude.. i get it..my point was simple..people were talking about best roms for battery life.. i just said kernel plays an important role in deciding that..that was my only point..i wasnt arguing with anyone..and testing of battery drain at standby means with data off,bluetooth off, gps off..hence syncing of account wont come into picture
I'm not arguing, just trying to make a point also.

Yes I know and sorry, the last two ROMs I was refering to are GB. However, Riyal is working on Ultima ICS ROM and it already exists in alpha version! See this post with download link Hopefully the ROM will have similar advantages as has GB Ultima ROM over GB stock ROM, which means better battery life, better wi-fi reception, improved camera and so on.

Ok, and is it also possible to DOWNGRADE from ICS to GB??
I did that when I had iPhone 4.
im using cm7.2 latest release alvays, i also have an app set cpu and i set my governor to scary, min freq 145 mhz, and max 1024, and im using profiles for apps that im using most of time (underclock cpu while using that apps)
with that i have at least 40% better battery life
and, yes, u can downgrade using flashtool

So far Arcknight kernel has quite the reputation for good battery life. IMO, for roms i find CM9 from FreeXperia project quite awesome but then there's an issue with the battery stats and brightness for now so wait for the next release i guess. for GB try arconium 8.2. still mostly its based on kernel and also the governor.

Hey friend, how do you do that? I dont ahve that option.
I remember i had on my other phone.
Im running the newest version. Should I change my device??
What option are you referring to?

Power consuming in mA

Hi guys...
i've installed Battery Monitor to check how much mA consuming the phone in stand by and in use... i notice that i have high battery usage...
Can you say to me how much mA use your HTC ONE X?
Thanks!!!!
Mine is using an average of 300-400, but i just flashed a new rom and installed alot of apps.
Are you on root? You can improve your battery life if you have root, also try to turn of Wi-Fi and Mobile Network off if you don't use it, atleast one of the two off if not using. And try not to use auto sync
Hope this helps, be sure to search a guide for improving battery life.
If i'm correct I saw a link in the OP of the ARHD Rom thread.

[Q] Which ROM for best battery life?

I'm currently on TeamNVDRU CM10 Nightly from the 1st. Battery is at 34% after 9 hrs off charge and 1hr 6min screen on time.
I have tried all underclock, undervolt, battery life tips i can find and the best i can get is about 14hrs on this rom.
I even asked HTC for the price to install the 2100mAH battery in the phone... they came back with $160 which for a 15% boost isn't worth it.
Therefore I am asking the community, which is the best rom for battery life? Sense roms and stock included.
I'm also wondering if there is an app that can collect battery life stats and post them to the web, sort of like antutu but for battery instead of 3d performance. Does such a thing exist? It would be useful for this phone.
My usage profile:
Listening to music ~45 mins each way from work
Gmail push for priority inbox
Microsoft Exchange sync once a day while on charger
Talkbox for communicating with workmates
Viber for texting/calling my girlfriend
Facebook push disabled, notifications disabled
Underclock to 1200, Undervolt -125
Thanks in advance

Hi,
Its well known that AOSP roms' battery is generally lower than sense roms...so if u want a proper battery life...try one of the sense roms...hasnt disappointed me...nearly same set of requirements for me and it has not failed..!! I am using AHRD which is quite good..also try ViperX roms...read a lot about it being real good..!! but havent had the time to try it out myself..!! but generally ARHD or ViperX can help u with ur usage...give them a try and try for like ~1week b4 u come to a conclusion...What i do is to wipe out battery stats when i install a new rom so that the battery is calibrated with the new rom..!!
Hope it helps..!!

I know people still do it but wiping batt stats its pointless. It's been proven it has zero effect

+1
use Blade rom with no-frils app and set cpu to 860 , lasts for one and a half day with regular usage ......
Honestly ?? Stock rom got best battery life. I used Renovate and ARHD, they don't reach even a half of stock lifetime.
I am on TripNDroids releases now for a time (since 017 I guess) and I must say, the battery life is fair. I use my phone often for WhatsApp and surfing/playing around and one battery charge lasts for one day. Although I have set the screen brightness almost to the minimum.
I've tried a few ROMs, but it's the kernels that are making the difference for me, i'd try viperx with faux ultimate kernel if you want good battery life.
And do try repacking the kernel boot.img with the one from the ROM using the repacking tool on the dev section.

The rom Port beanstalk for our device is amazing for battery ..I use uber 4.4 kernel and set it on noop and ondemandx and i get a battery drain at about 1% an hour at idle . I suggest better battery stats to find any wakelocks that might prevent deep sleep . also install cpu spy and make sure that your phone is deep sleeping .. I have the best battery life using the rom port beanstalk not the official.. Also hellkat is excellent for battery life .. I tried them all and rom port by souns of math is the best .. My battery results are the best when i have data off when the screen shuts off..Making sure your device deep sleeps is the biggest key factor.. Most roms i have tried still drain at 3% and hour or more while deep sleeping.. A good indicator of battery life as far as i know is how it drains at idle..Sometimes i have even only .8% an hour drain . Also the beanstalk rom by sounds of math is a great rom it is my daily driver.If you have any other ? let me know ...Hit thanks if this helped .. As far as bluetooth streaming I can test it out when i get home
There's not that many ROMs my friend. Try them all and decide which one works best for you. That's the XDA way.
Remember to give them a few days to get a fair feel for each ROM.
Moderator Edit: These questions inevitably lead to disagreements and deter development. The best rom is the one that you enjoy. Thread closed.
