Stable are both, battery life is a little better with tiamat, because it is undervolted.

thats all? or are the more benefits? specially on the miui rom?
Tiamat has more governors. It is undervolted, and has higher OC
I'm using cyanogenmod nightlies with latest Tiamat kernel and I'm experiencing random reboots. Might it be because of Tiamat's UV? Maybe I should try cyanogen's own kernel for a while.

There are comments about this, plus a temp fix, in the cm nightlies thread...

It has some awesome battery life on Tiamat. I had to recently re-flash after mucking up the battery calibration process and went with hyperion, which had decent battery life but I dunno, Tiamat seemed to pack better battery optimization's.
Compared to the CM one, I found Tiamat to be very much better. Which makes sense since this kernel is targeted at HTC devices. The CM kernel wasn't bad by any means, and was comparable to my stock one, but Tiamat, for me, has proved to be an excellent battery saver and with the CPU Governor settings properly adjusted makes for a long, long lasting device.
A two day usage leaves the phone at around 50% (it's medium to heavy usage), with stock it was 20% and with CM it was 25%.
It's worth testing, at least!

ROM for best battery life?

I'm going outta country and will have limited access to a charger. I'm not gonna use any data, wifi, etc. Probably just movies, music and some apps.
Anyone have suggestions for best battery life?
I get good battery life on Android 4.0

Its average for me, looking for a stable ROM also. Ics is a little buggy still, need something very lightweight.
i Think MIUI and Oxygen are very good for Battery ;-)
It seems that most people seem to tout MIUI as the trimmed-down, fast, good battery life ROM. (Never tried it myself as I like all of my extra features )
I don't know if it was just me but I had miui for months and the battery life was just a little better than ics roms. Is there any rom that stands out in term of battery life. If not,I'll just keep ics.
I am a battery saving natzi.
Using the Oxygen ROM with GlaDOS or Franco kernel with deepidle on and google talk without video installed (to make deepidle work right).
Ive also had great success with oICS V40 (now on 41 seems same) with the Matrix 12.5v Kernel and SmartAssv2 @ 1000/200. I have not been able to get deepidle to cooperate but it still get good batt life.

I'm using
Nexus Beam with
Glados 2.1 CFS Kernel
which, utilising deep idle, gets quite some battery lifetime
Greets
Oxygen + Matrix get good batt life!

Definitive best kernel/rom combo for battery? NS4g

I use my ns4g pretty heavily so I need a rom and kernel optimized for battery life. I'm looking for 3+ hours screen on time, something the ics roms/kernels I've had havent quite delivered. i dont wanna downgrade to gb, but I'd like to find a good combo of battery life and stability...

try this ics kernel, http://goo.gl/QAuKi its Trinity TEUV(TEI6S). its undervolted, underclocked at 880mhz, and its bus/gpu is overclocked 10% at 220mhz. its fast and great on battery. i use it with cm9, but it should be good with any ics rom
You don't even know lol ive tried and tested that decent battery but I can't live without the mods... solid performance tho

With all the mods, they r all good as well (icup speedy, matr1x, sg-uv etc.). The new franco.kernel is released and it runs very nice. It doesn't have mods yet but the battery life and performance are super. Also like simms said, the barebones trinity kernels are the best in battery life.
I'm running NexusBeam with franco's latest and I got like 25 hours of battery after average use.

TEUV All the way for battery performance
Matr1x v15.0 is out, has all the features and is undervolted.
I get 20-25 hours out of battery with around 4-5 hours screen on time.
Do you think using running CyberGR-MOD|NS.NGN ICS with Matr1x 14.5CFS, i could get decent battery life? i'm asking cuz i want to install ROM on Gf's phone, she still running CM7 from when i did last time, but i don't want to put a rom that lacks features. i want one feature rich that will not suck on battery life
I can't get over 2 hours screen on time MAX at all anymore. I'm running Peter Alfonso's Bugless Beast GB with GlaDOS 1.12 kernel undervolted to 880 MHz and 20% screen brightness. Even with a new Battery and a full wipe and clean install I still get terrible battery life. Anybody have any ideas? I'm dying here. Is my phone broken?

Most recommended rom/kernel question

What is the most recommended 2.7 gingerbread rom that offers great battery life even with hard cpu usage.
Also do kernels that offer the same speed still differ in battery life consumption? and could I get one recommended plz
Thanks

I'd recommend either singh miui as is with the stock cm7 kernel it comes with, or eagleblood 2.7 with morfic's trinity kernel, you can either use the ELP version which OC's to a max. of 1.1GHz and is more battery friendly (i.e. undervolted) or the T15 version for higher OCing which is still pretty good for battery life.
I'm personally using eagleblood 2.7 with T15 trinity kernel.
P.S. of course all other roms, and kernels, available in the development section of this forum are great and each has it's unique touch. Ultimately, it's a matter of personal preference as well as what works best with your device seeing as to how performance fluctuates so much from one G2x to the other.
From my personal expetience cm7 nightly + faux kernel give the best battery live. I've tried Trinity and it is pretty good but lasts 2-3 hours less, at least for me

that puts some questions to sleep. i was wondering why trinity ELP was still giving me bad battery life than faux 123.
THANKS!

Best Combination (Kernel + Rom) For Best Battery Life (Q)

Hey guys, atm i use the CocaCola rom and the kernel that comes with it i think is fauxs kernel.
My battery life is pretty harsh and is down to 30% by like 4oclock everyday so i gotta charge it again
I'm just wondering what kernel and rom u guys prefer for the best battery performance
i realize the rom doesn't effect the battery life but just throw out which one u guys prefer
I like the faux kernel but its not really a battery saver unless you underclock and underovolt it seeing as it is overclocked be default. If you use things like bln then the "stockish" kernel has those features. Or you can flash the stock kernel over the rom which will give you good performance/batt seeing as this phone is no slouch by default. I fiddle back and forth.
I under clock mine close to 1000ghz and it still smooth as ice
