G5-XT1670 (Cedric) Any ROM's without huge Idle Battery Drain? - Moto G5 Questions & Answers

Hi all,
I'm trying to use this old G5 as a smart home remote, so most of the time it's just sitting idle with the screen off. On stock ROM it would last many days on standby, but with every third party ROM I've tried, the idle battery drain is massive and only lasts about 1 day standby.
Did anyone ever figure out what is causing this?
I've seen others report the same problem.
Anyone know a ROM that has GOOD idle standby time?

If you want good battery use an android 7 based rom eg lineage 14.1 (requires you to be on android 7 stock firmware)
Anything higher you will not beat stock rom for battery life
You can try my custom rom if you need an android 11 rom which is probably better than lineage 18.1 for battery but it won't match stock on battery life

Battery Drain on resurrection remix?

Hello i have flashed resurrection remix v5 (android 4.4.2) on my N7100 3 days ago.I have not senn any bugs exept one.
When the screen is on battery drains fast.When it is locked, it is a good battery saver.But when i use it it drains fast (%1 for a few minutes).My last rom was Cyanogenmod 10.2 and it was better than this one.So i can compare them.So is there a known bug on the rom?How can i track battery draining more detailed?Thank you.

ROM recommendations

Hey,
I've been using this device for a month now. Overall, I'm pretty satisfied. I'm currently on Open Beta 14, with root, franco kernel and unlocked bootloader. However, I've noticed that I cannot pinpoint my location in Maps, and GPS doesn't seem to be the issue. The device fairly quickly locks down to the satellites according to GPS Status & Toolbox, but when I go to Maps, and click the little circle that's supposed to focus the map on my current location, nothing happens. I can't seem to figure what's the cause of this. I kinda have the feeling that I should go back to regular OTAs with possibly stock kernel/no root.
I wanted to ask, what ROM/Kernel/bootloader status/root are you using and why? Would you recommend it to me?
Pheonix AEX is by far the best rom..especially in battery life.
I get better battery than stock also is very smooth with lots of customixations +substratum
I'm using Sultan's unofficial LineageOS 14.1, with his amazing stock kernel, and no root. It is extremely stable, has great battery life (I'm getting 5-6 hours SOT, whereas on stock OOS I was getting around 4) and is really speedy.
This three are the best
1 Eliminaters RR
3 Sultans LOS 14
2 Phoenix AEX
Performance on VertexOS is top notch! It's a CAF based ROM with EAS. Battery life is also very good. Although, it doesn't havrany customization features... That's the only down side.
FreedomOS (CE),you can select most minimal ROM or some more customizations, just as you like it.
Everything is rock stable since its OOS based and paired with bluespark kernel i get around 7h SOT in everyday use.
VertexOS. It's simple like OOS.. Its receiving alot of updates also it had a really good integration of EAS and Voxpopuli the rom is simply perfect for me.. Its fast has decent battery life and simple and a dev that actually knows what he is doing and spends alot of time with the community. Incombination with Magisk it is all I need.
Slim
i always liked OOS but using Vertex converted me, great rom, the only thing you need to know is that it's as minimal as possible , that's the Dev preference, so apart from Substratum, which fully works on Vertex, it's as pure OSP as it gets, and i have Google phone latest version 9 fully working on it, battery is great specially if you played with the Voxpopuli thing , overall Solid Rom, no issues what s ever

Your Rom Experience with HTC One M9 as of September 2017

Recently got a M9. Wanted to know your experience about the most popular rom for the M9. Viper, Leedroid, ICE... How to you like them? What is battery life and performance?
I don't care about customization so as long as a rom is fast, stable, and hold good battery life, I would take it.
Let me know if you could jump in and share your thoughts.
Thanks
p.s. I actually went ahead and flash leedroid 10 v3.9.0 stable.
The room is fluent but I can't get notifications....
Do you have Leedroid tweaks installed?
I'm using ViperOneM9 now, seems stable and good battery.
I'm using ICE M9 5.5.9,and i have tested Viper rom. I prefered ICE with great battery life, smooth fast, and without problems. Ice great rom.
I used viperOne before, great rom with good battery life... I hated all the preloaded apps in the rom
I personally chose viper as the best stock based ROM but I found battery standby by time suffered to extent and i barely managed to get 8 hours out of the battery.
It also has far to many options and tweaks for my liking.
I ran a development stock ROM based on 4.x firmware for a few weeks, and it worked fine.
I'm currently running lineage OS 14.1 after a spell running lineage 15, but although 15 is very good, its not fully stable and has no working camera and does randomly reboot at times.
I'm getting a solid 14 hours stand by on the battery using lineage 14.1.
I just find that the best (for me) at this time.
The bad part of aosp roms is camera and sound.
For me stock nougat is the best.

Battery drain on all custom roms

I'm new to Xiaomi mi max 32Gb. At the moment, I'm running MIUI 9 global 8.2.24 beta and the battery life is fantastic, 11 hours of SOT, but every time I flash a custom roms the battery drain is crazy, 5 hours of SOT. I have tried a couple of custom roms but it's always the same. I get about half of battery life in any custom roms. Is there something that I'm doing wrong
same as mew , more SOT in miui than Other non miui custom rom.

You should install:
-greenify:Restrict background apps activity
-app opsisable (location+keep phone awake+kee app in background) for all apps
-betterbatterystats:shows you what drains the battery
-run battery saver mode
-install custom kernel

Which costume ROM's?
Stable unofficial LineageOS (nijel8) out of the box gives 11~12h of SOT while stable global MIUI 9.5.2.0 gives 5 to 8 h SOT.
This is normal use without heavy gaming of course.

Well obviously you did something wrong. With more costume scheduler settings people where getting & up to 17h of SOT (but that whose with rather extreme approach) on unofficial LineageOS 14.1 with light usage all well documented on power/performance thread. Had a guy with similar problem as you around month ago, his problem turned out to be a binary leftovers from dirty flashes of different costume ROM's. After he did it properly thing's changed. The name of user whose arbitrarygrill, read couple of pages back.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/mi-max/development/rom-lineageos-14-1-t3529851/page436
& you can always get more with costume scheduler/hotplug script's. Prime concern whose to match good old MIUI 8.2 - 8.3 SOT out of the box but with much better performance & without MIUI limitations (background apps/services aggressive killing) which we achieved in all arias mostly by working on kernel which Xiaomi never did & it's a source of most firmware problems today. Fun part is that 90% of back supplementary settings & libs are the same today; Xiaomi uses CAF settings & libs across the board (same as our unofficial Lineage is) and unofficial LineageOS uses the vendor libs from MIUI aside from ROM (apps) side only general difference is the kernel for which I vouch that our works much better & is safer.

Kernel is already semi costume, only a couple of things are added that are really beneficial as FIOPS IO scheduler & are set as defaults.
