I was just wondering which kernel would be good to use on the NS with an MIUI rom for battery life? Been switching between Trinity's TUV10 and Matr1x's 10.5 and 9.5 cfs.
I usually get around 20-24 hours usage once it's off the charger. My usage is moderate... I listen to music for about an hour a day, check the news for about 15 mins.. a few texts and usually no calls.
Any of you guys out there using an MIUI rom but is setup more towards battery life rather than performance?
Thanks!
hardly archive that... MIUI is battery killer
i use franco , pretty good , you should have tried it , but latest version has not good battery life as before , hope it will improve...
------
personal advice , why don't you buy an additional battery ... then you won't have to worry battery life anymore
better yet , use 2G instead of 3G when you check up the news
Matr1x 11.0 man

Woah didn't know 11.0 was out already.
Thanks for the update.
Btw amazing kernel you have there

It would be nice to see a comparison of NS kernels (on the same conditions, of course)
I think i'll check your ROM in the next days, mathkid95
Now using matrix 11.0 cfs, 800/100 smartassv2, disabled deep idle. Performance is still pretty good and battery life has increased by a few hours

So I have Myns latest Rom and I was wondering about adding Setcpu to the Rom. My question is this. For those of you that have this rom, how is your battery life? Do you use Setcpu? Is it compatible with this rom? Should I leave it as is? I dont want to overclock, I just want to underclock when display is off to save battery. Any expert advice?
What kernel would you guys recommend? Again I dont want to make my phone faster, I just want decent battery life, and I know there are a couple of tweaks I can do. ( and yes I already know about the brightness, wifi etc)
Getting bad battery life too huh? I'm new to this rom and I'm trying out a couple combos. I have setcpu to underclock using smartass. I changed my kernal to one with more havs. I'll report my findings.

No I really havent gotten through a whole day with this Rom, so I cant say I have had bad battery life. I just wanted to know what you guys are doing and using out there.

Im using Netarchys 4.3.1 toastmod CFS HAVS nosbc and I can average 15hours with standard use, 24+ hours if i ignore my phone all together.
I use SetCPU and Juice Defender (it turns off data when my screen is off) and i easily get a day of battery life, my minimum is 12 hours and that is if I am constantly using it
I have been using Myn's 2.2 with the netarchy 4.3.1-cfs-havs-nosbc kernal for a few weeks. I have Setcpu profiles to overclock ondemand at 1152 until my battery gets to 30% then runs at 998 after. Also have it underclock at 245 when the screen is off. I can easily get a full day with several texts, a few hours of surfing, a few phone calls and maybe an hour of games (Angry Birds, Let's Golf). Usually plug it in at the end of the day with at least 20% battery left.
I'm now finding that my biggest priority is battery life. My phone absolutely hammers through the battery at an alarming rate these days. I've heard that 2.3.4 roms are harder on the battery and I think it's since these came out that the problem has got worse.
I've tried nearly every rom in the dev section but I never seem to reach any conclusion about which is easiest on the battery. Any of you have an opinion on this.
Stock Rom with a UV Kernel CFS

The kernel is very important. Choose a uv kernel as a trinty one.
NsCollab is a very good Rom for battery saving.

My friend upgraded his OS to 4.0.3 and he's been reporting so bad battery life since the upgrade.
i was planning on rooting his phone and loading CM9. How is it handling?
Hi,
I also had a bad battery life with stock ICS. I didn't try CM9 a long time, but i guess it will be much better than stock. I doubled my battery life and my nexus feels more stable and faster.
..
CM9 v4.0.3 v1.1 with CM kernel seems to work great. Installed yesterday and pulled 20+ hours on a single charge before I decided to charge it before work. I am a moderate user, checking email, Facebook, browsing a bit online, and listening to Spotify when driving.
This version also seems to perform better with lack of lag on the app drawer. There are other ICS roms with more features at this point, but CM has always been a favorite for me. From what I understand on later versions there will be many of the same customization features as well.
..
Been using CM9 V1.0 for a week now and it just...works! Evenings of USB tethering in hotelrooms, lots of navigating with Google maps, lots of tinkering, etc. With deep idle enabled battery life is indeed good. (drops from 95 to 88% during a 7 hour sleep overnight) And it's stable too. Any reboots I've done were to flash further mods and backups...
Just use cm9, slap a kernel like matrix or glados on board. Boot up, install nstools. Enable deep idle and tweak as you like and you will have good battery life.
I use smartassv2 governed and sio scheduler

It's good, but you can tell its not finished yet... I was running it before, but the Music app is from Gingerbread and the screen was flickering every time I locked the screen. The battery life however, is a lot better than the stock

And it's working really good. Never got any problems with it. The v2 is coming soon ;-)
v2.1 is working really well. I still get screen flicker when opening up the browser - as if it is struggling to show a pure white screen and as mentioned above the music app is in development, along with other features.
As a daily driver it has been great and with respect to the battery life, when 'deep idle' is on, I don't notice much difference from CM7.
Hello all, I am wanting to get a good battery life on my mobile. So if I use a marmite kernel with stock jb will I get a better battery life or marmite kernel with rasbeanjelly will give better battery life.
What combo among the two I mentioned you all suggest for good battery life.
Thank you for reading.

I think that kernels have very little impact on power consumption (except if they running undervolted, downclocked or are broken in some way). More important thing is the ROM and apps that you use on daily base.
Best battery consuming ROM from my exp is CM10 stable with stock kernel, but maybe with 15-20 mins of screen time more than stock at most. Best tip for conserving power on NS and JB is to switch off 3G, Google Now and Location service when you don't need it.

Thanks for replying. But isn't people facing issues with cm10?
Regards
Perhaps with 10.1, but 10 stable, or the latest 20122012 nightly was pretty stable. I had one issue only with it - auto brightness was somewhat jerky... That's only battery wise.
Fastest ROM for me is MDO by knzo, RasbeanJelly mod which I am using right now. 3 and a half hours of screen time is same as 3 hours and 15 minutes. Either way I need to charge it at the end of the day.

Guys i am on my holidays and i play a lot of ingress currently i am on CM10.1 RC2, my battery is draining like anything so can any one suggest me a ROM that has a good battery and also a proper kernel which will go on with it. I dont mind downgrading but i need a ROM which has best GPS and also the best battery backup. I tried every ROM here and i get nearly 5 hours of battery that is all.
Please suggest me one ROM.
Try JellyShot + marmite

Smartass2/deadline 1000/100 mhz (only about an hour on 3g)
I was out today, and had screen at max brightness using gps for directions, playing solitaire and using 3g for FB, email ect... I only got 6 hrs battery with 3.5 hrs screen time.. I really didn't think that lowering the brightness helped that much, as I usually don't have it at full, but there is a huge difference.. Over 50% drop in battery life..
A simple rom with rich dark kernel
If u want the best battery from your phone consider trying Rasbeanjelly ROM with matr1x kernel.This ROM and kernel has always given me the best battery life though this ROM is not as highly customizable as aokp, paranoid android etc.

RC2 isn't that old (eaven if they pussed RC4 now), SO I'm guessing you dont have it installed for a long time, stay with it a couple of days and let the sistem calibrate the battery properly, after a fiew charging cicles it will be fine...if that doesent work try bb6 with marmite or helly 4.1.2 with Devil kernel updated
I've been frustrated with the battery, as I use this phone as my daily.. I recently bought a 3800 mah battery and get about 7 hours of screen time with moderate to heavy use.. I'm a bit more reassured now

Is that the extended battery?
The one that makes the phone fat?
Yea! Exactly that one.. But I don't notice it too much to be honest.. My thumb does most of my phone work.. And sometimes I used to be stuck phone-less, so for me the weight is a small price to pay

I too play Ingress, if you're getting about 5 hours of play time you're doing very good. Most people that I play with get 2 hours max as Ingress is a client heavy app. Remember that playing Ingress is like streaming a movie to your phone and running GPS. The data/Wi-Fi and GPS use a lot of power as they are always on with your screen. I have found that if I tether my phone to another device and just use Wi-Fi for data I get about another 30 min of play time, or if I just use the phone as a hot-spot I will get about 4 hours of play on my N7 with out recharging.
