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?

WellI've had x99's kernels recommended to me several times whenever I've jumped back to froyo.
Currenting went from Tiamat to ScarySUV, Tiamat seems high in performance but ScarySUV saves a little bit more battery.
Stock CM7 kernel max CPU at 1.5GHZ, min CPU 200mhz, runs great.

Right now I'm loving Scary's kernels. His links in his post are dead though .

Have you noticed a difference in battery life? It's probably in my mind but I swear my battery life has been better since I pushed up the max to 1.5ghz from stock.

I'm still on sparksco's kernel, but I also did noticing a couple more hours out of battery life ocerclocked to 1.5
I found that strange but nice. Phone tends to overheat though so I keep it at 1.2
Imo, sparksco's kernel is the besy by far with performance and battery life.

yeah ill usually get about 20hrs. Moderate usage. That's with 3g off and wifi on.
Best I got was 34 hrs before.
ScarySUV doesn't really help my battery life. But I never wiped battery stats when trying that kernel. I might do that and see what I can get.
When I'm on sparkscos kernel with 3g on all day, the worst ill get is about 10 hrs with heavy usage.

I get the same with sparks, scarysuv gives me decent about with amazingly heavy use but battery stats never done so I'm currently stay at 35% for about an hour and a half now.

Battery life is WAY better. Now if I could only fix my GPS. But yeah forgetting to charge my phone every night or all day at work doesn't feel like as big of a deal right now.
im running the warm synergy rom on my shift, is there any good kernels thatll run with that? id really like to get my shift oc'd and still use this rom. im used to using samsung garbage which is completely different from the shift.

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
Sent from my Nexus S 4G using XDA Premium App
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

Oxygen + Matrix get good batt life!
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!
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

Hi, ive been searching trough isc roms and kernels trying to find one with a good battery life, but there isnt, they all talk about customizations, power, performance but not about battery life. I flashed CM9 with its own kernel and its nice, but it got crashed some times when i was websurffing and the battery life gets like 13hrs of standby and 3 hrs of usage (wifi, network, display), so i went back to GB stock. im not sure if its an isc problem or just becuase of CM. Well id like to know if there´s an ICS rom or kernel that gives me atleast 24hrs of standby and a good stability.
And what about the CM9 crashes?, its isc´s bugs?
Im wating for a JB release, as it seems to be bettter than ICS. Thanks for reading , and sorry for this questions, is just that xda is the best place to find information as im a newbie in android c:
try the hefe kernal or one of the newer ones posted by team Fahq. Might help with stability.
Then flash the battery mod posted by itzik2sh. That made a very noticeable difference for me.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1985073
I was running ultragen with hefe kernel+itzik2sh's battery mod and was getting very very good battery life and the phone was stable.
Also changing the governor to SmartAssV2 can result in great battery life, even if my phone is clocked to 1.2 or 1.4 GHz.
But if you do not understand overclocking, do not try it, I read a couple articles before I actually OC'ed my phone.
If you want performance and battery life pertaining to kernel, you can try Hefe or Lightning Zap.
Other than that, you can try tweaks around OUR forums and see the results. You can also install Pimp My Rom to install tweaks.

, dont worry about overclock, i know all the risks and even CM9 from team acid gives you that option. But just let me know man, what is a governor?, never heard about that, and how much time you got of battery with that?

This thing called google brought me to a link to explain governors, so I thought I was paste it for you, even though in the time to type in your question you could googled it yourself.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2005306
As to say how much battery life? Doing what? On standby? With the screen on full brightness playing GTA? Connected to data all the time?
There is no answer to that, because everyone uses the phone differently. Obviously if I say I get 2 days out of my phone and someone else gets 2 hours, maybe I only sent 15 txt messages and they watched HD Youtube off data for 2 hours while their GPS was on.
Wifi and GPS use a lot of battery when always leave on. Turn it off when u don't need it. Hefe kernel seems to help with the battery drainage issue.

Dont get mad man. About the search, ive done that, but here i can find a better and smaller answer. And about the battery,as you suere read in my first post upside i was saying in standby and a light use, and how much it lasted for me (a very short timefor a new battery). Anyways, thanks for the link .
And thanks mike y, Ill try out your combination.
I'm currently on UltraGen with Hefe-KOD kernel. Great battery life with good performance. Attached screen shots is with lite usage. Came from AOKP Milestone 6 latest build. Great battery life as well. Will probably go back to AOKP in a few days.

That battery life is because he doesn't use his phone.
Ive noticed of that, but even when I was on CM9 i got only 15 hrs on standby, either way, what thing really provides that battery life?, Ultragen or Hefe kernel?
