WELCOME to, what I hope will be, THE BATTERY CENTER...
I am tired of searching every Forum, Google, and reading hundreds of posts to find one specific piece of information. WHAT IS THE BATTERY LIFE?
Like many of you, I love this sight and enjoy the work of all of our GREAT DEVs out there. Thanks to XDA-DEVELOPERS and the endless string of names that make this sight...and my phone all that it can be! I attempt new ROMs on a weekly basis, always with 3 things in mind.
1) I want BATTERY LIFE
2) I want Hero(esc) widgets
3) I want Cyanogen stability

DON'T THINK...FLASH
As we all know...we do not always get what we want and so each ROM offers us a little bit of one or the other. I respect this fact but still I believe that if we, as a community, pull together and begin to post useful information on these ROMs, we can begin to educate each other on our experiences. I am sure we have all found ourselves reading the 100 -200 posts on all of our developers threads attempting to find 1 or 2 pieces of information. If you are READING THIS you have likely stumbled upon us searching for the same info. if this is the case...JOIN IN. Let's help each other find the ROM that fits us best. What may not be what you are wanting, may be perfect for someone else. I personally want to find a Hero(esc) ROM with a good battery life. This is not a thread to post questions in. Instead, let's post FACTS. Let's let the info direct people, leave the questions to the professional devs and their own threads. Here is my thought/challenge...Try a ROM. Give it at least a day. Post the following:

This shd be in general Thread >> I think!!!!!
Let me knwo if this seems liek a wasted idea
Will begin to Update as I start testing ROMs again, give it a week or so.
ROM:in sig...

Battery Life about 6 hours before reaching 15%
Type of user:Power user...heavy messaging, browsing, etc...
Side note: Screen is usually at 40% brightness, GPS off, no wifi use, no bluetooth, no auto sync
Good topic
I did batery tests and i had similiar results... Thats why i keep using Cyanogen
ROM : CursorSense 1.0 RC1
Widgets: flip clock, htc battery, taskiller, people, gps on/off, mobile on/off, wifi on/off, bt ob/off, photo frame, bookmarks, calendar, htc.search

Type of user: power user. Lots of messaging, browsing, at least 1h a2dp Music daily
Side note : wifi and gps always off, brightness 50%
P.S the rom is faster and more stable than cyanogen. Downside -> specific radio/spl + cupcake
EDIT: and 32A only :-/
Good To See
I just wanted to thank you all for hoping on board. I hope we continue to Build this thread. Keep Testing...Keeping Posting!
I understand and appreciate what you are doing here, don't get me wrong.. But I think this should be moved to the General section.

I would love to have also like a satisfaction Rate or personal opinion whateverthingi. (runs smooth? looks good out of the box? comment)
After all, battery live is not the only thing that matters.
(Yeah, I know this thread is about battery life, but why not?)
(or is it possible to rate single posts somehow? so we could do it that way)
just asking
And thanks for the thread (ok im already messing it up by posting something else... )
Battrey Life
It is begining to llok as if Super D mixed with Pure Widgets, and MXPlayer is the best way to make your MT3G (myTouch) into a stable version of HERO.
Good stuff, maybe some speed test results would be awesome, you should talk to @AndroidSpin and get it added to the ROM database.
SuperD vs CSDI
Do not get caught up in the hype!!!!! The numbers read faster with CSDI but SuperD is more stable, and innovative! Take a look at the latest. SuperD Roms are continually doing what others aren't! Now with the BEST MUSIC WIDGET IN EXISTENCE!!!
[FUTURE APP] Overclocking/Undervolting stability test & power efficiency optimizer
Hi !
Here is the description of a potential app that might be developed under an open source license by united developers.
The app has several intents we may discuss:
1/ Validate the CPU stability
- Rare defective devices are not stable with manufacturer's Frequency, voltage and governor configuration.
- With overclocked devices, stability is far more challenging and as difficult to verify.
CPU stability is influenced by a lot of parameters, like
- Frequency table
- Voltage table
- Governor used
- Quality of the voltage regulation & switching implementation (hardware and software)
- Environmental heat, by other components (GPU, battery, screen) or the external temperature especially with black devices under the sun.
2/ Validate the GPU stability
Same thing here, most of our devices GPU can be overclocked but so far there is no good tool to validate its stability.
3/ Validate the system stability
Torture test: CPU + GPU + screen at 100% stability & charging at the same time
This is quite a common scenario when phone or tablets are used as gaming devices.
4/ Provide help to optimize the power efficiency
Today many OC users tend also to reduce the power efficiency of their device by setting inappropriate minimal and maximal frequencies (reduces efficiency) or by configuring too high voltages.
The best OC in general, or at least the most energy efficient consist of increasing the frequencies without changing the voltages.
Even if a higher frequency increases the power envelope, it only improve the power efficiency.
Also, undervolting for reduced frequency / power energy states improve power efficiency.
Future: automatic OC optimizer with profiles
Profiles:
- Best power efficiency without overclocking (undervolting only)
- Best power efficiency
- Balanced
- Max performance
With this feature, It could become the master of every OC tool.
Of course it will require the ability to speak to each existing sysfs controls formats, which is not such a big deal as most are quite cleanly implemented!
However it would make a few apps obsolete & also few people mad, which is definitely a negative point.
Another idea for this optimizer could be to allow for other OC apps to use the stability test engine and do the optimization themselves.
Implementation details
Good old stability stability test traditionally has been trying to make your CPU hot. As hot as possible, consume the most power, see if it crashes, and that's pretty much all.
While this approach could work with old PC CPU, it's now totally outdated.
Even if an excess of heat is still capable of making a CPU crash, modern CPU have quite complex usage behaviors like
- Switching Frequency and Voltage all the time.
- Entering and leaving sleep over and over, each time you lock/unlock your device, of the baseband wake it up by receiving a message, etc.
Like in every low level hardware stuff, the most delicate operations are switch of states, so, what a stress-test needs to do contains:
For me the reference test is "Intel Linpack" x86 implementation like you see in IntelBurnTest. I heard linpack binary is what they use in factory to determine which is the frequency rating of each CPU.
I don't know if it's true but I've always been impressed by the short time needed to detect an unstable PC system reliably where other tools like "prime95" could run for hours without giving usable result.
The ability to let the CPU (or GPU) switch frequencies
It can be done:
- by varying the CPU load. CPU governor will do its thing all alone.
- by "force" modifying the CPU frequency directly
Let the device enter sleep and wake it up
Many OC devices seems to work well but suffer from "sleep of death" issue. IE never wake up.
Sometimes even non-OC device have the same problem if you use ondemand governor instead of conservative.
I guess this is definitely something that can be implemented in the stability test
Detect non-fatal calculation errors
Like Intel Linpack test, errors detecting before a crash is smart and much safer.
It also allow to reduce dramatically the required test run time.
Existing apps
@SnakeHaveYou told me about the existing app named StabilityTest.
In the description the implementation looks very good, with the ability to detect non-crashing calculation errors.
However after about 20 minutes of test at a known unstable frequency on my phone, I get no error.
However if I keep the same OC'ed frequency, starting an OpenGL game, or let the phone enter sleep and waking it up a bit later leads to an unrecoverable freeze.
So, this app looks good but its implementation seems to lack the full stress ability required to simulate a real usage pattern.
Who
After running the app idea on twitter, several developers showed interest in the idea.
I have no plan to write or promote this application by myself.
However I'm interested into acting as a host, incubator or something like that, and also contributor.
Who showed interest right away (developers)
@bvalosek
@BFGarzilla9k
@ytt3r
@ogdobber
@KhasMek
@TheEscapist_xda
And also a few people before the the the idea was described publicly.
I guess this app can have a very large user base quite fast, especially since it will be promoted by about every kernel developer here on XDA.
How
I propose a shared git repository on https://github.com/project-voodoo with plenty of contributors with write access to the App SDK & NDK code.
Maybe forks all over the place could do also, but if it enhance freedom I'm not sure it would favor collaboration so much
Hey, your turn guys!
This would be extremely useful. Hope it goes well!
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I897 using Tapatalk
This is a really cool idea. I know enough XML to work on the UI, so I guess if I want to be involved, thats the way in
I won't be much help this week though.
nice posts bud-- good to see you starting the ball rolling from your idea on Twitter earlier. Just some quick info before I head out... more tonight probably
Some thoughts on the app:
the changing of states is definitely a huge thing to work into the tests, as this is where some of the more subtle problems between the voltage/freq steps seems to manifest themselves.
I have yet to find a synthetic test that can fail/detect problems as quickly as say launching a game like Cordy.., so there are ways to bash the system harder than the current tests it seems
what i can bring to the table
No experience with the NDK but pretty solid C experience for embedded systems
Can probably help the most on UI/metrics/feedback parts of the app. Creating views to reflect test status, sysfs state info, etc. Example of an app that shows time_in_state info i wrote a few weekends ago -> CPU Spy
my dev environment
Arch Linux
vim + android SDK command line tools
git for VCS (github for the few opensource projects I've done)
I'll be watching this thread to see what sort of dev activity we have going on over the next few days... looking forward to working with some of yall fellow XDA guys

@bvalosek
I agree with supercurio on the Linpack, detecting errors part. My idea was something like Prime95. Have an array of known primes, first 1000, lets say, then start generating the first 1000 primes. After each division(inner loop), change the frequency max and min level to a random step. If the generated prime number ever fails the comparison to the known primes, you are unstable. Since a lot of the instability in mobile oc comes from the voltage switching, the frequency switching would stress that as well.
EDIT: Heh, we made front page.
Toastcfh and Decad3nce have given us HTC guys some incredible Kernels in the past. You might wanna run this past them if they haven't seen it already. I know zero about kernels or I would jump in this asap. There's nothing like flashing a kernel update script to find your device doesn't boot anymore
Alright let's create a repository to boot with then
Incoming here: https://github.com/project-voodoo/android_oc-uv_stability_test
Could you add me as aa collaborator? We also need to brainstorm names.

Sounds good. I have no experience with NDK either yet but reading the NDK samples a bit earlier showed that it is almost trivial to do the glue with it
What you did with CPU spy is awesome, it allows to understand very easily how the states & frequencies are used and also if the device enter sleep properly.
Looks simple but at the same time really useful. Congrats !

I would suggest OC/UV stability test, or Overclock stability test
You can never go wrong with a name describing what the application does.
− Especially with mobile apps which traditionally do one thing
I don't have any technical expertise to contribute to this project, but i've spent a whole lot of time staring at BIOS screens tweaking OC's. This is exactly what is missing from the Android OC scene. The app QuickClocks has a feature that attempts to do this, through what it calls a "lag spike test," but it did not behave properly on my Droid X. I will be following this project very closely and contributing whatever feedback i can. Good luck guys.
Looks like a great idea...
I am a huge PC overclocker. I have owned 2x HD2s now. First Euro over a year ago and could clock easy over 1400mhz. My new T-Mob crashes at 1190. Its the same kernal/ROM so its very clear to me its a voltage problem.
It sucks I cant clock it up more and willing to cost some battery sometimes. Great App going here guys keep up the good work.
id like to enroll for testing if possible, i know iv tested every version of SOK and helped with finding bugs. i know my phone is a quality built coz its rocking 1.4ghz stable wether it was gaming/stress-testing or whatever.
if u think i could be of any help with testing simply message me ^_^
I have an idea for apk Icon. I can make it once the name is figured out but it could be a clock with lighting bolts as the clock's hands to symbolize the clock speed of gpu / cpu and the bolts to symbolize the voltage.

I have an idea for an app, hereby going under the name of "stats-projector", but I'm no developer and do not wish to be either. I'll just throw the ball in and hope someone runs with it.
To explain the idea I'll start with explaining my inspiration for it:
Some years ago i played battlefield. In the bf-forums you could dl an app that synced your bf-stats to your forums profile. The basic stats were displayed below your avatar. If you clicked the stats you would go to a page showing more stats.
My idea is an add-on to the tapatalk xda-app that acesses your stats and sync them to your xda profile in the same manner as the bf-stats. Stats to show could be rom, kernel, bootloader, battery stats, uptime, usage monitor's output, running services and all other easy accessible stats. Such stats you'd monitor with a simple monitoring program dl:ed from market.
Why?
-Ppl like to brag with their setup and stats (me included)
-In dev's threads you'd be able to skip over much trivial exhange of info and save LOTS of time.
-Your reason added here
Why an add-on to tapatalk xda-app?
-Because to me it seems illogical for the stats-app to sync when a member isn't online.
-Privacy issues. You'd not wanna flaunt as to currently be running the service of xhamster.com webplayer (if any exists, just an example).
-I'd like the stats-projector to sync only when refreshing xda-app, or even more seldom (customizable), to reduce battery drain.
-In a future it would be possible to use the stats-projector with other forums that use tapatalk. Why stay with xda when we can have the entire Android commynity?
Misc:
*I want the stats-projector to be highly customizable, for privacy reasons and for reasons of battery drainage and data usage. These matters shouldn't be allowed to scare users away.
*I want the stats-projector to be skinnable and themeable, because ppl like that ****.
*I want much more, which I'll add when I come up with it.
*I want all the above because it will make the stats-projector a given add-on that most ppl use out of pure instinct.
I've tried this idea on a couple of ppl and posted this thread to try it on a larger crowd. Discuss and tell me in the thread if I should alter or add anything.
Also, plz help me find a snappier name for the app.
Almost 500 views and not a comment. Can anyone at least tell me it's a bad idea?

I have android app development experience. Developing the app shouldn't be hard.
But I think an individual app will be easier. I am not sure (technically) how to access the resource of the tapatalk app. tapatalk must expose a intent service which can be called from the addon.
Tik hai, you're right. That's easier. There must also be cooperation on the part of xda-forum who must incorporate the projected stats in webpage for it to work.
I'll list stats I find relevant to include:
Kernel
ROM
Uptime
Battery use graph
Baseband
Storage overview
Time
Ringtone
Location?

I think this is a great idea, and might put an end to all the favorite ROM threads if you can have it poll the server and generate a list of who uses what.
Unfortunately I have no experience with programming and can't help with actual development.
Sent from my SGH-I777 using Tapatalk
the main problem with this is that people change roms and kernels sometimes up to 5 times a day. So keeping these stats are not really gonna be reliable.
Users can set poll frequency.

Known BugsSplash Screens will only work on TouchWiz
Working on finding out the cause of these issues. Please report bugs in either of the Team Kernelizers threads.
This is still in Beta, more is yet to come!!!!!!
Kernel InformationGeneral Installation Instructions (for both TW and AOSP):1. Download correct version of kernel for your device and rom. This is important as you may brick your phone is you use the wrong version.
2. Flash kernel using your preferred recovery
3. Do the following AFTER installing the kernel and BEFORE you reboot your phone:
a. Clear cache
b. Clear dalvik
c. Fix Permissions
4. Reboot your device.
TW Specific Kernel Instructions:
(can be used with AOSP too)There are some files on your TouchWiz phone that need to be renamed in order to maximize the battery life of your phone. There has been some debate on whether or not this is necessary, but for now we would recommend renaming these files to ensure that there is no chance of excessive battery drain.
Part 1:
These steps are only necessary on TouchWiz ROMs, however you can also do this on AOSP as well:
1. You must have ROOT. You will need to have a root enabled file explorer on your phone (ES File Explorer works very well and you can get it from the play store (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.estrongs.android.pop&hl=en). When you get it, open it up and go the the settings and scroll all the way down until you see the Root Settings. Go in there and enable ALL of the root settings.
2. After that is done, navigate to your root folders using the Folder Up icon at the top. Once you are in your root folders, navigate to /system/bin and locate the following files. You will need to rename them with a ".bak" at the end of the filename
gsiff_daemon --> gsiff_daemon.bak
mpdecision --> mpdecison.bak
qosmgr --> qosmgr.bak
smd --> smd.bak
smdexe --> smdexe.bak
Renaming these files will not harm your phone. Many users rename these files every time they flash a rom, and no damge is done.
Also, some ROMs come with these files renamed or deleted entirely, so if you don’t find a file, don’t be alarmed.
You have to do this every time you flash the ROM and/or Kernel.
If you feel uncomfortable doing this yourself, you can use the TK-MOD (see Downloads section) and it will handle this for you.
Part 2:
Stopping mpdecision from being called:
1. Open terminal emulator and type the following code:
su
2. When terminal emulator asks for root permission hit 'Grant' or 'Allow'.
3. At the # prompt type:
stop mpdecision
Using Rom Toolbox (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.jrummy.liberty.toolbox) we will make a script that will stop mpdecision from being called at each boot so you don't need to use terminal emulator each time
1. Open Rom Toolbox and scroll down to the Scripter option
2. In the scripter, click the “+” button in the top right corner, then select 'Create'
3. Type a name for our new script, lets call it “stop mpdecision”
4. In the commands enter the following text:
#!/system/bin/sh
stop mpdecision
5. Hit the disk icon to save it
6. Select the script that you just created and a dialog box should pop up, select set at boot
Were done here
AOSP Specific Kernel Instructions:When coming from a 3.0 Kernel to a 3.4 Kernel there is a new method with kernel updates. Skipping these steps will cause phone instability, due to some bad data left behind. This is a flaw in the Android OS, not the application. You must follow the instructions below (Thanks ktoonzs for the new method of the ktweaker app)
1. Go to Settings on the phone
2. Go to app manager then all apps
3. Scroll down to ktweaker app n open it
4. Once open hit FORCE STOP and then hit CLEAR DATA
5. Reboot and flash your new update of ktoonzs kernel
6. Repeat steps 1-4 in the above “General Installation” section
You should be good to go after that

Here you will find all of our tweaks to the kernel. We are providing these pre-configured settings as a means to assist S4 users with further improving their overall experiences on this already beast of a phone or to simply use as a baseline to work upon tweaking further. Please Keep in mind that results will always vary per device regardless on the settings being used. Apply what works best for you and your phone. We're here to help eachother out and with more options comes better experiences for everyone running the KT-SGS4 kernel. Big thanks to ALL who have contributed!
Download links will include the specified profile(s) as well as an "Adjustments" file. The "Adjustments" file is just for easy view of all changes made to a profile compared to stock settings.
1. Download the file(s) to your phone. In case of .bin files, optionally rename the file(s) as .txt
2. Copy ONLY the profile(s) (DO NOT copy the "Adjustments" file) to /sdcard/KTweaker folder using a file Manager of your choice.
3. Open Ktweaker app and click on "Restore Prefs from sdcard".
4. The file you just copied should be listed there. Choose the one you want to apply.
5. After applying, make sure the "Set options on boot" setting on the main menu of KTweaker has a little green text bellow confirming that the settings will be applied upon reboot.
6. Profit!
Balanced Bull: Reloaded (updated: 11~15~13)
These settings are very special to me as they were my very first, dating back to the Galaxy S3, and has gained an incredible amount of feedback. It has become notable for it's fairly smooth interface and amazing battery life. If this stacks up to your standards then I encourage you to use it!
https://copy.com/6DYYijYNqifx
Nightmare To Remember
This will likely become your beautiful, never ending nightmare.. It offers a unique balance between battery and performance but unlike Balanced Bull, it is slightly more performance oriented due to the more aggressive scale up to max CPU. However, only 2 cores will be used for the majority of the time so you can still enjoy a nice buttery smooth interface with just enough juice to last you through the day.

Bless The Child v3 (updated: 10~25~13)
Based on Ktoonservateq and aimed towards battery. This is specifically for all the battery hungry users out there wanting to conserve as much power as possible. So don't expect the BEST but rather decent performance out of this one.
https://copy.com/CZdfHiaZEOAu
Feed The Machine
The exact opposite of Bless the Child. This is a performance oriented option for all hardcore users. If battery isn't a priority for you then this is a great option.
https://copy.com/xWpFNDtIsQHe
Day Of Reckoning
Very similar to Nightmare To Remember but is aimed slightly more towards battery without deteriorating much of the performance. It is based off the Pegasusq governor.
https://copy.com/vynBURHcsOUl
Dead By April v2.2 (updated: 11~15~13)
This profile attempts to bring some of the best battery life possible to your device. It is similar to Bless The Child but takes things a step further . It now focuses more on snappiness but still maintains it's well known battery conservation. It manages to maintain a smooth ui for your average daily use.

Project Icarus by @mamba720027
So some may wonder why the name "Icarus",why not Hyper Performance or Deadly Good Battery.
Well the reason and to begin explination,short history.
Icarus is a greek mythology who is seen today as a mythical pioneer that tried to conquer the skies.
I like that mythology cause it kinda corresponds to my own saying "fly high or fall hard" which means to aim high or fail trying. So their you have it folks and thus the profile name "Icarus".
And onto explination of each profiles.
The first is "Performance" which is catered for straight out performance with also good battery performance.
This one is for when u dont give a rats flying balls about battery really and just want everything super fast and smooth. But you maybe surprise of battery performance. I recommend everyone try this profile first. My current favorite
The second is "Conservative" this is for those seeking performance but also better battery performance than the first.
This one is the middle man or lady as u may want to refer to it. It gives the best of both worlds,performance and battery. So if the first leave you stranded then fear not, this is the one to turn too
The third is "Kamikaze" which means "god wind". It either knocks the daylight out of your Galaxy S4 due to its high undervolteing and mean intent on Battery Performance but still snappy.
This one the undervolting is of my personal voltage table that runs stable for me with other tweaks. If it runs successfully for anyone else then battery performance may be great.
This one is for those that likes the thrill of trying something new and unsure if it will work

Undisputed 3 (updated: 12~11~13)
This is a universal performance setup in which combines the essential elements of other profiles by providing equal battery life, speed, performance, and stability to bring the ultimate experience to your device.
https://copy.com/H0FUiELjgegB
ECLIPSE v2 (updated: 10~25~13)
This is a performance oriented option where great battery life is also expected to intervene. This not only will bring an incredibly stable, smooth, and snappy feel to your device but will also benefit towards longer lasting battery so you can love and enjoy your phone the way you were meant to.
https://copy.com/fgFWgW30IE38
Asking Alexandria
Another battery driven profile in which focuses on saving as much juice as possible while also maintaining stability and providing an extremely snappy feel to your phone. It is quite possibly one of the smoothest and snappiest battery saving profiles available.
Why Asking Alexandria?
It's named after yet another one of my top favorite metalcore bands and I chose this because Alexander The Great basically ruled the world at one point and "Alexandria" is the female equivalent to that name, which has become known to mean the "one who comes to save warriors".
"Asking" was an addition to the title name as an indication in the sense that we are all asking Alexandria what she can really do to our phone.

Project Daylight v2 by @mamba720027 (updated: 12~23~13)
Day Light is focused mainly on battery conservation. I felt that its useless if its not smooth and lags alot so I add performance into the mix createing a profile that offers both while its first and foremost goal "battery performance" is still preserved and not diminish. This profile is yet unique and on a different level from my early release of "Icarus"
The contents are 3 profiles unique in their own way, "Daylight", "Daybreak" and "Experimental" along with a "Extra" folder containing wallpapers I created on our S4 for fun while testing . Kind of gives me some inspiration and sense of feel of what my objective is.
Daybreak is a crossbread profile of my Icarus Performance profile and Daylight. Its simply utilizing the performance power behind Icarus Performance profile while useing Daylight profile governor settings as its core to boost battery performance
The experimental profile is heavily undervolted/Underclocked with tweaked scheduler and governor. I taught if some of you could run it stable then it may produce great or mix results

What Lies Beneath
This is an extreme battery performance setup in which essentially transforms your quad-core device into a dual core device.
Why "What Lies Beneath"?
You'll find that during light to moderate operations the cpu remains at lower frequencies for an extended period of time and will only jump to max when needed. Although it's clocked at a max of 1.3ghz it maintains a surprisingly smooth and snappy feel to your device at such low frequencies. This is where battery life is also expected to come in to play as well.
https://copy.com/PXAKKLMFdNDU
Ktoonsified v2 (updated: 12~23~13)
This profile was put together by none other than the BOSS himself, @ktoonsez! This is a performance oriented option in which also offers a great deal of battery life. Haven't tried these settings yet? then what are you waiting for!! Load em up and be prepared for one of the smoothest and snappiest experiences ever!

Sleeping Dragon by @mamba720027 (updated: 12~23~13)
Sleeping Dragon V2 Single Core
This is a single core profile aimed at consumeing the least battery for a time when you will be away from home or at work and away from the charger. It was a profile i played with at first as i did not expect it to mount as much with apps and system UI needing a right amount of performance from a CPU to meet todays tasks in performance. In the end i was able to tame the dragon and make it work as best as possible to achieve its goal
Sleeping Dragon V1 Quad-Core
This is the counter part of Sleeping Dragon V2 but with many tweaked parameters to make it a fully functional 4 Core base profile in hopes to achieve close or same battery performace as its single core entity. Unfortunately i still am not sure if it measures up but what i know from previous test with settings @Stock it hold its own in battery department. I am pleased with the results although i would wish to see some light usage results from users.I must give credits to Luigi for useing parts from his Balanced Bull Script, and Undisputed 3 Script and part from my Crimson Dragon Script. I am pleased to present users with this 4 Core or Quadcore profile

Smooth Operator v3 by @mamba720027 (updated: 12~23~13)
This profile utalize all 4 cores on demand and serves as being a balance between battery and performance. Its as smooth as possible and utalize the full cpu power while operateing sensibly in governor scaleing.

Hydra
Eclipse and Kamikaze clash with one another in this hybrid profile (BIG thanks to @mamba720027 for the amazing work done on Kamikaze!). This is perfect for those who favor one or both of these profiles. With the merging of some of the essential performance and battery elements of each profile as well as a few minor adjustments, this one also stands as it's own profile and it flies!.

Ghost Rider by @galaxys3man30
this setup can benchmark on 1890,1944 and 1998 and its been really good on battery even thou its a performance setup think im going to call it ghost rider cuz its a sleeper yea it shows good battery life but behind that is the raw performance that is on demand when needed.

*Stardust v2* by @mamba720027 (updated: 12~7~13)
This Profile I put together is based on the "AbyssplugV2" governor.
Everything is tweaked and the profile can run by itself or either use the "smooth operator V2" Script or Luigi's "Hydra" Script.
Both are found in Post#8 of the OP. The choice is yours.

Crimson Dragon by @mamba720027
This is a profile that i put together from a lost in the thread Dual Core profile "Lazy Dragon". What was suppose to be a V2 Update of it turned into a 4 Core profile and something totally new, Crimson Dragon. This profile is a variable of Performace and keeping things balance. Its very smooth on TW and produce great results on AOSP as well threw testing and feedback. Please enjoy this new addition :good:

I hope you're planning on removing all the S3 related links, and replacing them with S4 related links. Also, since this is the AT&T/Canadian device forum, you really shouldn't have links to Verizon/Sprint/T-Mobile stuff.

The goal is having universal mods and tweaks. I don't have an S4 so I can't comment if there are any specific differences. Most of the info posted should be fairly universal and can be applied to the S4.
GalaxyMan the founder of team kernelizers has an S4 and I'm sure will update the OP as needed. The S3 sprint forum has been pretty active with users providing governor tweaks and support for the KT Kernel. The governor tweaks are mainly geared to improving battery life or a balance of performance while also improving battery life. I can say the S3 thread has helped a lot of users, myself included to get amazing battery life. Hopefully this will apply to the Galaxy S4.
Hope to generate a little interest in this thread. I'm using an extended battery, Zerolemon 6300ma, cost $25 with case, it's three times larger than the stock battery that came with my Galaxy S3. The biggest battery drain is data and the screen, my carrier is Sprint. Not sure how much drain AT&T data connection has on battery. I will try to post more regarding battery life on this single charge.
nevermind

Good question. I haven't read of anyone involved with Team Kernelizers running the Supercharger scripts so I don't know much if anything about them. Quite a few, myself included are having good results running Crossbreeder, use url below for more information. Some users in the Crossbreeder thread are using it in combination with Supercharger.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2113150
Crossbreeder takes the lag out of Android system making the UI snappier. It doesn't improve benchmarks, but it defiantly makes things sappier. I use the KT Kernel slightly undervolted and underclocked at 1.1ghz, Stock my device runs at 1.5ghz.
ktoonsez the developer of the KT Kernel has added frandom into the kernel so it works great with Crossbreeder. It's best to use a kernel that has frandom in it.

Thanks for the reply! I, myself, have dabbled in using them together and separately, but find that running just the V6-Supercharger itself yields the best results of either or in combination. (To each his or her own though, I suppose.)

Battery is still at 71% this morning. While sleeping I always have data turned off, this helps a lot with battery life.
I use black wallpaper, inverted apps when possible, the color black doesn't use juice from battery with our screens. An article stated black wallpaper can cause ghost images, in my case I don't feel it will ever be a problem because I keep my brightness low, which also saves battery. The next best color for battery life is green.
A new mod you might want to check out, includes Crossbreeder.

V6 is endorsed by Team kernelizers. Zepplinrox's scripts are his own and may not prefer that his work is in every mod on xda, installing them together is completely compatible and is a good mod. Any lags from tkmod itself is being worked on now actually, as the mod is going back into alpha testing till it's refined. Cheers, maybe you will tinker with the new mod once it is released.

Excellent read Jim. Wonderful posts here, thank you.
APP IS PRETTY MUCH STABLE FOR EVERYDAY USAGE
BACKGROUND
Hello guys,
I'm not even a junior developer yet(soon) and I decided to practice and experiment on a self-made app. I always wanted to have an extensive battery stats app and that's why I chose to develop such one. To be honest, during the process I learned so many things about coding that nor the Java Course learned me, nor the university and I'm really glad that I'm working on it.
DESCRIPTION
This application is coded with the intention to provide you with information about your battery's health. It can measure the voltage, the charge / discharge rate, battery wear(only new and specific phones have such sensor) and temperature.
TODO:
* Add a battery report tool that will give information about all the battery statistics your device supports so it will be easier to add more supported devices
* Add a precise charger tester mode
* Add more supported devices
FINAL WORDS
I would be more than grateful if you download, test and let me know here how the app behaves for you(especially the update interval accuracy in the settings)
If you would like to donate me(paypal)
DOWNLOAD
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.tanago.battinfo
Updated to version 1.1 (live on GPlay)
Added graph and background monitoring
Updated icons
Stability improvements
