kernel for best battery life - Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers

From common opinion, which is the best custom kernel for battery life?

The likely consensus will probably be Flash kernel. However, Ex, Sultan, Snoke and Kirst are all very good as well. Hard to say until you try them

I second on flash kernel or ex

I don't believe any of the kernels provide much of a boost in battery life. Android has that down pretty well and there isn't much room for improvement. Now lots of good features add....they still do that.

They are all good on battery...try some and decide for yourself based on your set up and usage.

Roms with the best battery life from exp.

I want to ask you guys from your experiences which rom have you got the best battery life. I flashed mainly all the current roms (MIUI, Virus, and etc.) I haven't got great battery life from any. So if you guys can recommend me one. I don't mind old roms as well. Such as sense 2.2 roms and such.
Generally ROMs don't affect battery life it's usually the kernel.
Also, to say that font is hard to read would be an understatement.
Wasn't trying to be rude.
As far as battery life goes I would consult this thread if you haven't already.
Unfortunately, because no phone is the exact same, battery life can vary from Evo to Evo.
There have been talks about the newer linux kernel builds [all the aosp kernels are based off the newer ones] using more battery than the older ones.
Personally, I have seen a slight decline in battery life since moving to the newer Linux kernels.
I would start with that with that link I gave you first...it really does significantly improve your battery life.
I've personally found the best battery life with the combination of decks rom 1.2z, savagedzen 2.2.1 and viperboys script @-75

Best ROM in terms of performance AND battery life?

What would you guys consider the best rom is, in terms performance and battery life?
I've tried most of the ROMs and to be honest with you, I've noticed a minimal difference in battery life between them, if any. Just use ktoonsez's kernel and you'll have good battery life.
All of them.
Since no one uses the phone exactly as you do, nor has the same signal strength as you, only you can be the judge.
We don't do "Best ROM/kernel" threads because of that. Everyone will say the one they are using is the best.

Which kernel do you prefer for best battery backup?

I am not asking which one is the best, but which one would you prefer for best battery backup? Samsung's latest release is forcing me to use a custom kernel, but I'd like to know which one I should use as I am not freak about flashing plenty stuffs.
Thanks in advance.
Redpill or uneak or perseus. You can try them all.
Sent from my GT-N7100 using xda app-developers app
Yeah, but I don't want to try them all bro. I know they all are great but that's why I asked which one is the preferable for battery backup specifically.
I am on Perseus now, I hope I've made the right choice. Lets see...
Persues is good for battery.neak is battery drainer.my experience
You're not asking which ones the best, but I'll tell you. I have used all the available kernels for my Note 2, and in my experience RedPill is the only one that is giving me consistent and best battery and overall performance. With more and more updates the developer has been adding more and more options. You can also undervolt the CPU and GPU with RedPill for further enhance your battery life. I had huge battery problems on my S3, So i had to go through a bunch of crap like different custom roms, undervolting, under-clocking etc to achieve good battery life. But when i got my Note 2 i used it for a few days completely stock and un-modified. And i was surprised at how amazing the battery life was. But if your having problems i can recommend AllianceRom + RedPill kernel, than undervolt the CPU/GPU (The utility needed to do so comes with the kernel, after flashing there will be an app installed on the phone called STweaks). And do some other minor adjustments to achieve incredible battery life. If you need any help or additional information you can contact me anytime.
I also want to know...
I would also like to know this as well. Since upgrading to 4.1.2 I am having bad battery backup, never thought of switching kernels but now I have to.
Shame on you Samsung....

Best custom kernel for OP5T as of now

Anyone knows which kernel is the best ( In terms of stability, battery life, and performance) for 5t as for 2019. So far I only experienced FrancoKernel, Blu_spark, Renderzenith. Based on my research and as I've talked to some people. Mostly they recommend Renderzernith kernel. Any recommendations?

If you want best battery life than stock, if you want best performance than RenderZenieth, Franco not updated and have a wakelock that doesn't let device sleep, Blu spark is more laggy than stock kernel and doesn't even more battery life. Honestly kernel development is very slow now.

Imho currently stock kernel is the best for me - all custom kernels seem to be problematic currently like frequencies locking up (cores not sleeping, clocking up or down).
perf kernel (aka stock). π-kernel was good for a while but development seems to have stopped for the time being. Hmp based kernels (e.g., π-kernel or SimpleGX) have given me better battery life and fewer lag issues than some of the EAS kernels (e.g., RenderZenith). Some people swear that EAS is better, but IMHO that only holds true if the rom has been optimized for it, which stock OOS has not.

Could you recommend the least battery consuming Mi A2 Lite ROM?

I unfortunately don't have time to test all of them, since I work with my phone.
I was looking for an Android 10 ROM, and I'm not strictly talking about stock Kernel. Custom Kernel is fine and welcome.
ROMs will give you pretty much the same battery life, if the kernel stays the same. So I'd suggest installing a Custom ROM of your preference and then install the smallest package of gapps. What you should be looking for is the kernel. Kernel is the part of the system that manages the conversation between hardware and software. Therefore try some Undervolted Kernels for battery life, these will decrease the performance of your device, but it will increase the battery life. As long as you're not playing graphic intensive games, you will not notice the difference. My suggestion would be to use "DragonHeart vx.x + U" kernel in the forum. It is undervolted, so the battery life will be much better than stock. Also keep away from unofficial, untrusted and Beta ROMs, if you want stability. Cheers.
EDIT: You can also flash the custom kernel on stock ROM if you want to have the least amount of hassle.
