Looking for a Rom with good battery life

What's up guys?
Next week I will be flying to Europe for 2 weeks trip, and I am looking for a Rom for the Sensation which will give me as much as possible battery life.
As for today I am using Insertcoin rom sense 4.0, which is great but after 10-12 hours of medium use I need to recharge the phone.
I need a Rom with or without Sense (but with android 4.0), that will be good for a day of use with Gps, Wifi and stuff like that.
Do you have any recommendations?
Thanks Alot and have a great weekend!

I think the stock battery is just poor better get an anker like i did from ebay and i do not regret it a single bit battery has been improved by almost 2times ! I can do 17 hours unplugged whit 3hours screen on time which i couldnt do anything close to that before..

[Q] sensation battery

Hi I'm new to sensation dev and I have a quick question I'm use sense 4.0 Rom with faux123 kernel I was just askingif there is a battery mod or something to help save battery?
Oh yeah the Rom is ordroid 8.6.5 4.0.3

I think there is but I'm not sure of link but wanted to ask are you still stock battery? It helps a lot if you upgrade to a longer lasting battery say like Anker. I use Anker and its made a huge difference in my battery life. Also after flashing rom, make sure battery is at 100% then plug into charger, go into recovery, wipe battery stats, then unplug. This helps a lot. Also make sure things like sync is turned off for things you don't need, stop non needed running applications in the background, turn off blinking notifications , turn off feedback vibration ect, make sure backlight is minimum brightness, doing these things with a better battery will really help you! You will be surprised how much more time you get with Anker battery. I wish you the best! Hope you get the better battery because is really made a difference !
ps I'm running Ordroid 8.6.5 also

Yes there is. Look in my signature and chose the power-saving option from that page it leads to. It is extremely good and although it only ever uses one core I can't notice a different in speed, only an epicly increased battery life!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Battery life (vipers 1.4.1)

Hey i use the 1.4.1 rom sensation and my battery down 2% on 2% very fast
If I use an hour the battery goes below 50%
which will be the problem?
Thanks

You might be getting a wakelock. You can download "better battery stats" and run it and it will let you know which app is causing the wake lock if any. If no wake lock is present, could be time for a new battery. But first see if wake lock is happening. This could be draining the battery. Read a bit about wake locks. You can google it. Hope this helps you out. Best of luck. Here is a link to the apk better battery stats. It also explains wakelocks.

Yes seems the problem is your battery. No wakelocks. Try another battery and see how it goes

Yes, because your not having any wake lock issues as above post suggested it's time for a new battery. You can get a extended life battery for under 20 dollars. Most people prefer the Anker battery. People have had great luck with that battery. Hope this is helpful. Best wishes

One suggestion before you purchase any new battery
Make a Nandroid Backup of your current ROM and install ARHD with Stock kernel and check...if you get the same results then definitely you need a new one....and if your battery life is good again then you know what to do
Hope my idea works..... finger crossed...:thumbup:
Edit: After this experiment.. let me know the results

Try the anker... I just got one and it's much better. Charges take only 2 hours from empty. I had charge times of 6-9 hours before I switched. Here's my recent stats as of this charge with viperS 1.4.1, faux kernel 10b7 at 192min, 1566 max. 594 screen off...

You can use the custom Roms,but as compare to stock Rom and stock kernel, it consumes more battery..

Now we will see with 100%
I'm already eyeing the anker battery
thanks to all

1 suggestion.... after installing any ROM, give some time to sattle down the ROM as well as kernel... min 3-5 full battery cycle... means u can stay it with 4-5 days...only 1day will never give u the correct result...

Best battery life ROM?

Which ROM do y'all think gives the best battery life? I'm on baked right now and right as I get out of school I'm down to 35% usually, thanks

I use viper and it is giving me a good battery life. I don't know about aokp/cm. I think you should try everything and then you will chose whatever is good for your needs.

How is the stock Rom with battery? Just wondering if it's worth rooting and putting a custom Rom on for battery
Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda app-developers app

cm10 has nice battery life ..m using dark jelly S v20 the battery is really good works almost a day for me with me almost connected for 14-16hrs of wifi connectivity and listening music and of course auto sync always on ! u should try all once before proceeding further

Energy ROM and of course.. other stock based ROMs have the best power management available, you know, engineered by HTC

For me, cm10 gives better battery life than stock Sense. I think it depends on how you use your phone.

I'm using Baked too, but for me battery life is just great! Actually on 57% with 8h 27m and almost 1.5h screen...

Of course rooting for battery is a good idea. Undervolted & underclocked kernels, delete bloatware that's constantly running, etc. And as far as best battery life, baked has been very kind to my phone.
A typical day for me (7am on phone for 2-3 hours reading the news before work, music to/from work, light usage on breaks, then hotspot at home for internet, and all the calls/texts in between and countless downloads) will leave me with 20-30% battery when I go to bed around midnight

[Battery-issue] is my battery life normal ?

hey guys! so i have an htc sensation one year 4 months old and the battery life is kinda " crappy " .
i charge it when i'm asleep and it goes from 100 to 85 in almost 5 min .. and if i continue to use it (heavy use) it can live up to 3 hours max !!
is that normal ??
or should i buy a new stock htc sensation battery or maybe u could recommend me a good battery that last longer ?
waiting for ur answers ^_^
P.S: i live in sweden ..

no it is not normal
you should definitely get a new battery
try to buy Anker or Mugen batteries
they last quite longer

Like the guy said above; buy an Anker 1900mah battery from amazon.com. Will give you roughly 20% extra mileage on stock. Also from my experience with this phone the ROM and kernel also impacts battery life. For the best battery life use the badass governor on battery saving setting and set the cpu between 192-1086mhz. As I don't game heavily and just heavily text, call, browse it lasts me a full day with brightness on lowest.

thank you for the reply , i use bruce's cm 10 with his kernel. and i don't game at all i can say .. but it's just the battery that sucks .. one question does amazon ship to sweden ?
Edit: just bought one from uk amazon thank you guys really

You're welcome Have you tried changing badass governor to battery saving in his init.d script? And turn off the capacitative button lights using kernel tuner. I'm using this set up and I get 4 hours onscreen time on the latest CM10 version

yes i've tried that before but no difference :| so i bought a new battery :good:

I would reset the phone and buy a new an OEM battery. You can use the 1730mAh battery from a Sensation XE(check eBay). I wouldn't recommend an aftermarket battery, since they are of lower quality that HTC made batteries.

I just bought the 1900mah anker battery from amazon . I'll try it and see

So guys I've been using the new banker battery for 2 days now .. and I find it better than my stock HTC battery but I found that when using internet apps like Facebook and whatsapp .. etc , it takes much more battery than playing games .. this is my normal battery use today ^_^
