Best Rom opinion

What is the best G2X rom so far with good battery life? Do i need to flash another kernal to get better battery life? New here. Thanks.
I tried the weapon g2x, but didn't think the TW launcher forcing stock dialer as the only option. Other than that, it's good rom with the notification toggle.

Is good battery life all you are really looking for in a rom?
if so you could try a stock or tweaked stock rom and a oc uv kernel

+1 for WaponG2x with Faux kernel.

Pretty much all CM7 based roms are the same. Try xboarders or g2xtreme

I tried g2xtreme yesterday. Very good so far.
+1 for WaponG2x with Faux kernel -> The faux kernel overclocks it? Is there a way to set the cpu profile? I tried no frills cpu but no luck setting it. Any comment? Thank you.

I've been using eagleblood 2.0 with with the new faux kernel 0.4.1u..and my phone is just the bees kneeees..hah..check out my quadrant score..

battery life has a lot of factors..how many apps/widgets you run..what you do day to day..wifi..etc..
PERSONALLY..with a modest amount of widgets, wifi and gps on..constant texting and a phone call here and there...I get around 10 hours per charge. When I forget to charge it overnight, it usually is still on whenever I wake up...so I take that as decent.

I don't run that much widget. G2x battery seems to improve with faux kernel, but got rebooted once.
i like the notification toggle but don't like the default dailer on the phone. Thanks.

Best Rom for battery life??!?

Hey, I was wondering if any knows the best rom for battery life? Stock wasn't to good on battery and I'm trying WeaponG2x as we speak. and lost 5% in battery in the last 20 minutes! From simple texting. Unless that's normal? Just comparing it from my previous phones but anyone know which one is pretty good on battery?? Thanks in advance.

I was on the latest Weapon rom as well, and yesterday all day using the phone for texting and calls only while on wifi calling, I got 12 hours and on 60 something % before I went to bed... I didn't use it for data pretty much at all (I was home all day)... What I have come to, all roms are pretty good with stock kernel and wifi calling on, as long as you aren't playing games or browsing the web like crazy. Those two things make my battery die super fast. Every rom handles things different, I'd say weapons and EB 2.3.3 roms are great on battery.

+1 for Weapon battery life.
I'm a pretty heavy user (data, gaming, web, all day) and I seem to get the best life from Weapon.
On stock GB I was lucky to get 4 hours. Weapon regularly gives me 8+, even [email protected] Weapon stock kernel has even better life.

Hello. I see people talking about clearing battery stats in order to make battery usage perform the best in WeaponG2x. Before installing WeaponG2x I cleared the battery stats in ClockworkMod Recovery. Is this what they are talking about or is there also some setting in WeaponG2x that I need to look at? Thanks.

Thanks! That's the whole reason I'm not using Weapon 3.
And yes, clear stats in cwm. It seemed to help my battery. I did it again after running the mod for about a week.

Show off your battery life!

Haven't seen this thread in our forum so apologies if there is one deep down somewhere but a lot of people have concerns about their battery life. I thought it would be good to get people showing how long their battery lasts.
Please share a screenshot, the name of your ROM and anything else you have done such as radio/kernel changes.
I would share mine but my battery is still in the process of dying!

I've got no battery drain, when the phone is not used, but when I do somethig like net surfing or phone managing, battery is going down very quickly...

I have cm nightly rel 2 and cm kernel. if I dont using phone, batt life is more better as in stock rom. But if I using it (wifi net...) batt go down too quickly.

Hey dan-fish, wanted to create a post about battery life but then i found this.
Could u maybe edit your post a bit? like adding a poll and changing it from 'battery life' to 'screen on time'(which i believe should be a major battery eater) as battery life alone would be a bit deceiving as i can leave my phone in deep sleep for days, and my mom will come asking me after seeing the poll is it something wrong with her phone because she charges it daily.
But i however do notice that i can drag the battery life as long as i am conservative on the sceen on time. of course there are many other major factors in terms of screen on such as duration of the screen(battery heats up and drains faster), reading news or playing a video or a game, downloading, deep sleep, wakelock and so on.

When I get to a computer I shall

It may be something you may have done.
Did you by chance flash some tweaks on top of zeus?

is this 5 days battery life like even with data and wifi on and if so is it with the ics theme added or no and if yes what are you guys doing and what battery are you using to achiueve this insane battery

In my experience the only way to get that kind of battery life is to basically not use it much. Which defeats the purpose of carrying it around. I use the internet quite heavily, text occasionally, gps, bluetooth and wifi typically stay off and with that usage I might be able to squeeze out a day and a half. Just my experience.

I as well am having problems with my battery draining quickly

I agree Zeus has excellent battery life, 2-3 days all the time. I will say that I had to reflash Zeus once because I couldn't seem to get more than 6 hours out of the battery, I just chalked it up to a bad flash.

I'm having bad battery life too...I get good battery on the first day after a reboot or something but after that its back to 10 hours

I'm impressed with battery life on CM

So ive used a debloated touchwiz rom and CM10.2, I noticed minimal battery difference in life. Usually averaging around 3 1/2 hours worth of screen life... Recently I installed ktoonz kernel and managed to clock the CPU to 189-378mhz, I must say this kernel is awesome managing battery life. Just look for yourself

There are plenty of "Off Topic" threads of which this belongs. Or even post it in the CM10.2 thread.
But... cool. I had over 24 hours on my battery yesterday using stock MF3 TW. It was at 45% with 2.5 hours screen on time.

Not even impressive at all.

Obviously your battery lasted longer than 24 hours if you're at 20 hours with 46%. No SS needed since there's no disbelief.
