Best set up for Battery Life? - Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III

Hi guys. People have been getting insane battery life on their phones, but mine has never been exceptional. I've tried AOSP and stock roms, and even the KT747 Kernel but still no luck. Can anybody who has been getting great battery life post their set up (Rom, Kernel, Governor, Scheduler, Max/Min and Voltages)? Thank you.

Honestly, coming from Dinc the stock setup was awesome. Been using SynergyRom r64 for some time and i've been consistently getting 18hrs (compared to Dinc - 4-6hrs). Anyhow, wifi-on does save a lot but also use the powerSaving mode and you'll get a lot more. Couple that with undervolting when the screen is off - you'll be more impressed
I'm now rocking touchmybeans rom and so far battery life is good.

I've had great luck with the imo kernel .13 on CM10 M1. I use setcpu to fine tune things to my liking and have had great battery life as a result. Highly recommend this setup for your i535.

Damn man, that's seriously impressive.I'm always on WiFi and haven't gotten anywhere near that, but I don't track it very well either.

CleanROM 2.1 w/ CLeanKERNEL 1.2
System Tuner setting my CPU underclocked to 1.35GHz Max, 192MHz Min, Screen off max: 384MHz. (no lag at all)
Juicedefender turning off data when the screen is off while syncing once every 30 mins. (data turns back on almost instantly after i turn the screen on)
Getting a consistent 30-40+ hrs of battery life with around 2-3 hours of screen time.
currently I'm at 46% battery left and its been on for 1 day and 5hrs (29 hrs). but i've been busy so I've only had a little over 1 hr of screen time.

Synergy R73, Ziggy versoin 0542, SetCPU on SmartassV2. GPS doesn't work, but after 14 hours and at least 3-4 hours of screen time I was still at 45% or so.

CM10 09/08/12 Nightly, with IMO Kernel v.14, OnDemand Governor, SIO scheduler, 1512 max and 384 min. This was with only 4G and moderate use over 2 days.

Myns Warm 2.2 question

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.

Best battery life with custom rom/kernel

Suggestions? I currently use cm7 151 with faux's oc/uv 0.4.2 kernel. Not really happy with battery life, only get about 7 hours with moderate use. I have great signal everywhere I go.

I'm in the same boat. 8 hours ish on Weapon 2.7 - doesn't matter which kernel, or how much I undervolt it.

How heavy is your usage and how long does the battery last?
Sent from my LG-P999 using xda premium
I'm going to give EB 2.2 a try seeing as it's new with faux's kernel and hopefully have a better time with it then last time.
Hope to post back with good results battery-wise.
I get about 12 hours with Eagleblood and the kernal it comes with. I use setCPU to lower the clock speed when the screen is off. I can use the phone at work for most of my 10 hour shift listening to music and browsing facebook or other apps that use data on my lunch and breaks along with texting a lot throughout my shift.

which eb version and is it 2.3.3 or 2.3.5?
Thanks in Advance
I know this thread is about batt life, but what about games are there any rom / kernel combos that make games look and run better?
I'm using xboarders stock debloated and tweaked rom with stck kernel and I also get about 12 hours of light to moderate use in a day.
fauxs kernel causes my phone to black screen and shut off some times.

im using EB 2.2 Faux 4.2 the one that dose no OC or UV and it took me 8 hours of super heavy usage trying to waist my battery for me to drain it hope this helps
My solution is My custom overlay on cm7 nightly 158 with faux123's cm7 kernel STANDARD VOLTAGE with setcpu tuning it down to the second to lowest voltage when the screen goes off. My battery lasts about 35 hours!!!! I know this because I took an overnight trip.

Try to wipe battery stats at 100% and get through at least two charge cycles, it helped in my case
personally , stock ROM has longest battery life
I´m running MV Nexus Rom with matrix 10.5... Using 1320/440... Deep idle enabled and max freq when screen off enabled and it´s giving an awesome battery life... I´m using a TMo Nexus S

Honestly I'm not sure what deep idle is.. I'm working on a friends phone.. I have a charge. I didn't know smartass was an option.. But I'll def hit that up.. So how do I enable deep idle? And how would raising min clock speed save battery life? jw?

LONGEST LASTING BATTERY stable ROM/kernel

Hi. I am using stock ics. Getting 1.5days of battery with light usage of data(2g). However. Is there a rom that can push it, to a full 2 days? I'm irritated having to charge my phone in the middle of the day. also I would prefer a stable rom only.
Sent from my Nexus S using Tapatalk
you can put a custom kernel that can extend your battery life. i recommend glados for ics.
Are there any problems with it ?

about GlaDos
if you have S-amuled you will have a greenish screen when waking the device
(that can be fixed with some voodoo configuration editing)
other then that i personally think this is the best available kernel for ICS right now.
it has Deep Idle so you will probably see some improvement of battery life

Battery life depends on ROMs and your usage habits.
If you can get five hours of on screen time your doing something right.

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.
