Hi,
I have several questions. As i do not like bloatware on androids i would like to know which rom you prefer.
The most important for me is battery life, second performance.
I have been looking for custom roms but there are so many of them.... I am not able to decide which one is the best.
You can also recommend stable kernels.
I have been reading and searching forums but roms and kernels update quite often....
I know its much to ask but that would help next users to decide what ROM to choose.
The best would be screenshots of SOT and Antutu benchmark.
Also that would help if XDA would make it as a rule to ROM developers to upload SOT and Antutu benchmarks
I'm using xXx Nolimits but i can't guarantee good battery life i don't know what happened but on all roms/kernels i'm trying only getting 4-5 hours SOT

Treskmod, just Treskmod. It's the snappiest and best Rom in terms of performance. The battery is also pretty dam good. It's based on AOSP with Omni's amazing stable framework. If you use tripndroid governor with deadline Io scheduler then you will never experience better performance.

If you like oos, stay on xxxNolimitsRom, been using this rom for more than 2 weeks, 100% stable, no lags, speedy performance and amazing battery life. I use snapchat,insta,whatsapp,spotify,fb messenger, telegram and youtube all the time with no battery saving options nor greenify and get 6-7hrs of sot daily. Give it a try.
Thanks for replies, I fixed the crazy battery drain problem, updated to latest oreo and I had 20% battery drain less than 1 hour. Showed me 3h battery life and now... I don't think it's possible but here is the proof of improved battery life...

I was wondering which rom out of the many available - is best in terms of battery life?? I didn't really want to start a whole new thread .. but i am looking for those here who have flashed most of the custom desire roms on XDA, I need a rom that manages battery better then most.

I'm pretty sure that you are going to have lots of answers. Unfortunately, each one, talking about one rom or the other will tell you that its rom is better that others.
I'm running a ROM developped by a single developper (Itanium 1.8 today) and the battery life is pretty good. Undervolt mod is included, several optimizations have been made for battery usage, but again, I'm pretty sure Cyanogen and OpenDesire (these are examples, not the only ROMs working fine I guess) are good at saving baterry life...
So I would say it's hard to tell, and the best advice would be for you to test several of these and find the one which best suits your needs... You might end with a ROM which might give you less battery life, but which would looks better for you and for your usage (Sense based, without Sense...).
Hope this makes sense.

thanks for the info bro I hope others will also post a comment. Although, as you said - opinions will dither, it will still be good to get an overall opinion from many XDA desire users.
I know this is a pretty dumb and common question but i wouldn't have asked if i didn't need to ask it badly. I am leaving leaving my place for a month and i would need a longer battery life between charges because i will mostly be on picnic outside or doing something else where the connection won't be possible. Two things i would ask is that whether the LC ICS atm has good battery life because i had stopped flashing a while ago and i don't have time to go through every rom just to record battery life. Also how is the 480p on LC ICS compared to the 720p on GB roms because i will be recording A LOT from my phone. If LC's rom isn't that stable then can someone link me to a good GB rom with smooth interface and good battery life. By "good" i mean 8-12 hours with moderate use, is that a lot? and of course more is better.
EDIT: oh yeah, Mods! please don't lock this right away xD
Thanks a lot in advance !
This gotta be in the Q&A section.
Back to your question:
I would maybe recommend cyanogenmod 7.2 or ARHD roms.

I guess that CM7.2 is your call...has no sense at all, but works great and battery life is great. Take into consideration that battery life is not awesome in this device, but CM7.2 is not bad at all...also paranoid android is awesome, but is ICS and camera is not as smooth as in GB.
If not, you can try CoreDroid V9.4 or the Energy Rom...both have great battery life and no lags at all at least for me....

Hope it helps....
The best rom I ever had in terms of battery and smoothness was Bindroid. It's Android 2.3.5 and sense 3.5.
I don't have a link but you should easily find it by google.....

I would like to have a kernel that will give me good performance but great battery life! What do you guys suggest and post some screenshots of your battery life with the kernel please!
theres no point in these kind of threads. read the kernel threads and general/q&a, you'll find out why.

Stock. More performance means less battery and/or stability and vice versa. Stock was already built to be the median between the three.
Sent from my Stock AOSP Android 4.1.1 Galaxy Nexus.

That's kind of the same as asking for a 400HP engine that has the fuel efficiency of 5 liter per 100 km.
I'm using CyanogenMod 10 at the moment but the battery life is not great, charging twice a day. What is the best custom ROM for battery life?
All AOSP Rom's consume more battery as compared to sense roms!
Try different roms from Android Development / Original Android Development and settle on which you find the best!
PS: Rom comparing threads are not allowed here!

I experienced it the other way: HTC's services are draining as hell :silly:
Have you looked for wakelocks already? Many apps are preventing deep sleep of the CPU.

When I said sense roms, I meant custom sense roms... not the fully stock one!
Sense + Rom cleaner + de-sense = great battery life!

I'm a 40% at the end of the day with a simple usage (not heavy)
You can use a kernel with the smartmax governor and lower your maximum frequence. You can udervolt too, but in most of the case it will just keep your device cold while playing.
Threads asking for the best ROM are not allowed. Closed.
Hey, I'm looking for a kernel that gives great battery life and performance at the same time. I currently have installed a custom OS in my phone, so it's not running stock, but a port of the S21FE, you may already know it since it's for this device.
Any suggestions are accepted
Hi,
I'm not actually using any custom kernel for that purpose but I'm using NCX custom rom : https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/rom-port-oneui5-1-ncx-s21fe-rom-sm-a528b.4526805/ and I can confim that it's really great for everythng and for battery life as well.
If you are in mind to try a custom rom, yo ucan do that and check by yourself !

Yeah, that's the ROM I'm using, was gonna ping the author but forgot his full username. Overall it's because I've got almost 8h SOT every day and I'm a really heavy user so I need the best battery life possible

You could debloat further NCX rom in order to maximize battery life by using https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...mate-app-manager-debloat-tool-tweaks.4147837/. BTW, if this is not enough you have no choise but to try the custom kernel and see if it helps https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/kernel-12-13-a528b-n-mesas-custom-kernel-r5.4490653/
