Best battery life rom? - Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Can you tell me the rom + kernel for best battery life? I use the stock rom + stock kernel, but drain the battery fast sorry for bad english

I would recommend any kernel with deep idle. Glados or matrix

if you are rooted i would highly suggest using pete alfonso's latest ics rom (1/2/2012) combined with eugene's lastest kernel (speedy 3). i have it 200/800 smartass v2 and for me the battery life is pretty good. also, i have calibrated the battery resulting in stellar performance.

Still GB?
ROM : Mandaman2k ROM based on Peter Alfonso
Kernel : Matr1x
At the moment i am using Brickmakers MIUI 2.3.3 with Matr1x 16.0
I'm also using GPA 19 ... rock solid.
Now using Bugless Beast by Pete Alfonso, but I'm waiting until nexus Sense has got data! Than I probably will move to Nexus Sense! I'm running on the stock kernel, but Nexus Sense will run on Matr1x 11.5!! Bit old, but newer versions are for ICS.. Nexus Sense is on 2.3.3 at the moment... bit bad, but okay!
Greetzz, Jojoost.

I've always gotten good battery life from Pete's roms. I do alot of internet stuff, as well as the normal few calls and texts during the day. I have no problem going an entire 15 hour day without hitting the charger.
Wow, that pretty good battery life. Ill be sure to give it a go. Thanks everyone for there input helped a great deal.
Cyber-GR mod v7 with Matr1x kernel 15.5. Its stable, smooth and fast (at 200-1200 mhz smartass v2). That's my main ROM & Kernel, but I'm always trying out new roms.
The new 4.0.3 MIUI roms werent impressive to me. Not smooth, and fast enough :/.
AOKP Milestone 3 with SG's 2/05 kernel. Pretty rock solid in terms of battery life and stability and overall smoothness .

ARHD kernels

can someone give me a link to the best kernel to use with ARHD rom with good battery life and performance
kernels
Anyone? Any kernel suggestions and why?
I can't link any kernels for you but I can tell you they're pretty easy to find on this forum. Try looking in the dedicated ARHD ROM thread, it lists a couple of kernels. I myself have good battery life and performance with the Faux123.
ARHD comes already with 3 kernel choices while flashing. Stock, sebastians and faux.
I use Faux underclocked to 1.08GHz. Great performance and really good battery life!
Phil
I found Faux's or Sebastian's good with ARHD.
Faux & Sebastian
Do some research on the forums...
Then, try faux or SebastianFM. I prefer faux, because it's really stable and improves the battery life. But try to read other threads, and opinion about these two.
Battery or Performance?

Do you prefer battery or performance?
Why do you need links if ARHD comes with stock kernel and also with other 2 custom kernels? (Faux and Sebastian)
Faux - Battery
SebastianFM - Performance, more like stock with improvements

I have found titanium to be best too in matter of battery ^_^
Using Frankenstain [LF2] Mod^3.5 rom with vurrut kernel 9.1 till now got the best result. I also use bam kernel for a long time but I got little lag n battery drain problem. Hope they will fix it on next release.

This of the list of roms and kernel I tried out lately.
1. RemICS 1.3 with dhiru kernel
Quite good, reasonable battery life, nice performance.
2. RemICS 1.3 with vurrut 1.8
Nice performance, nice battery.
3. Pandora miui(now closed) with vurrut 1.7
Exceptional battery life, with no lags, nice performance. Still hd gaming lags :-(
4. pandora miui with vurrut 1.8
Similar results, not much notable differences except a bit betterbattery life.
5. Pandora miui, with arindam kernel(along with rom)
Stuck on bootloop
P.S. Pandora miui had 3 inbuilt kernels to select while flashing (vurrut 1.7, arindam, dhiru kernel)
Presently on stock rom xxkpu, with bafaria, cf root kernel !
Press thanks if helped
I am using Ddlf2 Lite by RonnYap , with XDA Bam 14 kernel (packaged).
This is the most fastest with so many features including power camera shutter + low battery... this guy is genius man.
known defect : flashlight , some games like scramble pro will auto shutdown.
I wanna go for Lightest JB, with 3x kernel ,,cant imagine that @@

Best rom for long battery life?

Which rom is the best? Thaiz?:good:
For me,only the stock was good.
Sent from my LG-P920 using xda app-developers app
I pretty sure that the kernel is handling the battery so best battery life I had while using:
1. The Promethius Kernel Version 1.4+ (the + is for v21e baseband)
2. ThiaiZ V0.6 Kernel
I must also note that the performance with both of the kernels is amazing. Very recommended.

i am goin for rooting and custom rom with kernal falshing .
what do u recomend for overall performence rom with least bugs...?
performance matters me first i can manage battery problm
First, if you already haven't, install v21e baseband or kdz (kdz is easier to install imo) because the kernels mentioned above work only with that baseband.
I recommend the same roms as the kernels, try both and find out witch suits you the best (they are both stable as they are LG based roms)
Sent from my LG-P920 using xda app-developers app
Best is the 21E stock ROM and the custom ROMs that are based on that.
My vote is for Thaiz 2.8 (currently), I use setcpu to clock down during screen off also to save more power.

Rom/Kernel

I wonder which combination of rom and kernel do you guys recommend for strictly battery life!?
currently on cm13 with built in kernel. it's not bad but are there better options especially after tweaking the kernel?
greetings
Use what you think is best, every device reacts differently to a kernel. Flash the available options see what fits best for you.
I recommend fire kernel, my kernel (ruthless) or Optimus kernel.
Honestly, without significant tweaking, stock rom and kernel provide the best battery life.
