[Q] best kernel?

Hello i flashed Pete Alfonso nightly of ICS the most current and i was just wondering what kernel I should use cause i unplug my phone and the damn thing is sucking juice like my 3 year old child...
I see posting of people using ones that's giving like nearly 20 hours in a day here if not more and would like advice on something like that
Maybe also like help with what settings in my phone should have on or off too help the phone last longer...
Thank you kindly and have a great day...

Hi.
I think that if you want so good batterylife as possible, it all depends on what ROM and kernel you are using together.
In my opinion Matr1x and GlaDOS 2.9 are probably the best, and you should try one of them, or why not try one for a week, then try the other and then deside.

Deside should be with a c.... DECIDE!!
No, just kidding, but it is with a c. I think you're totally right! I prefer Matr1x, but GlaDOS belongs to one of the best kernels as well!

Ok so just flashed the current matr1x kernel and now as settings go what governor and cpu setting should I use for best battery life
Sent from my Nexus S using xda premium

I set cpu at 100 min, and max 800... And governor at lazy... I unplugged at 12 noon and its 1:37 and im at 79% is this normal...

I'm very surprised at this, given Pete's propensity to tweak the baked in kernel dramatically to improve both performance and battery life. I'm getting great results of both using his kernel.
Saying that, Steve Garon's plays very nicely with Pete's ROM. Either leave ondemand and deadline scheduler.
Matr1x is also very good. Same there, or use lazy for decent battery life.
As for what settings. It totally depends what you have going. If you got 25 different news widgets sucking data like there's no tomorrow, then yes, you;re going to see crappy battery life. Tell us what you;ve got going on and we'll try and help.

Well I just turned sync off most Google stuff aside from Gmail and twitter sync is off and other stuff I am not all sure what is and isn't off or on
I can almost sit back and watch my battery tick down ward
Is there like maybe an extended battery aside from the one in box can buy to assist n more juice

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

Best kernel for saving battery on 7.0?

I am on cm 10.1 and the battery isn't much different from stock. Also, the tab gets hotter than it did on stock. Any kernel that keeps the device cool and saves battery? I am willing to change ROMs if its CM's fault, but the ROM you suggest should be waaay better to convince me to change ROMs.

not sure whether it's kernel or CM10.1's fault! But i don't like 4.2.x based roms just yet, they're just not stable enough for my liking.
I use AOKP Milestone 1 on my P3110 and i was using it last night and battery was on 7 days and blah blah blah with 47% battery left! Admiting i only use it about 4 hours each day!

Do you play games????
If not go to processor clock settings and underclock it to say 800,600 or less.
Your tab will not get hot and you will get better battery life!!!
Also you can try ketut kernel...
And about other Roms cm10.1 is best one after stock 4.1.2(debloated)
And device getting hot is normal.

Bike Race runs fine at 300-600MHz. It still heats up quite a bit though.
Nobody else really uses my Tab but my mother for Candy Crush, and PIE doesn't even work. But since nobody else is recommending any more ROMs, it looks like I'll be stating on cm.

[Best Battery ROM]

Guys i am on my holidays and i play a lot of ingress currently i am on CM10.1 RC2, my battery is draining like anything so can any one suggest me a ROM that has a good battery and also a proper kernel which will go on with it. I dont mind downgrading but i need a ROM which has best GPS and also the best battery backup. I tried every ROM here and i get nearly 5 hours of battery that is all.

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?

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.

Depends on your requirements for phone usage:
-Gingerbread rom = battery last mosts, lowest battery drain, not very stylish, used for watching movies or gaming for it's around 200MB free Ram and long phone usage with Wifi.
Rom i recommend: GingerSnap from neko95's blog site.
-IceCreamSandwich: this one has a little less battery life and free ram, but it has better UI, greater app compatibility, It's something between Gingerbread and JellyBean.
Rom i recommend: IcySnap again by neko95.
-JellyBean: if it weren't for the big battery drain - expecially when on Wifi, I would choose this. You definitely need sdext script for its low free internal storage, will experience some stress when you need to do something fast but your phone start lagging as hell suddenly. Oh, wifi teathering has still some issues. Definitely not for gaming. But I'd still go with this if it weren't for the big battery drain.
Rom i recommend: CM10.1.6, get it from my thread "Jenkins" or search for "jenkins armv6" on google.
If it's for your GF why not stick with stock rom?

Kitkat themed...why didn't you've said so in the beginning..
There is a Kitkat themed ROM based on latest stable JB, Link will be given in next edit.
Edit 1: All the ROMs for P500 have built-in kernel, you don't need to flash another kernel cos the build-in is probably the best for the ROM.

LOL, I just going to say the same rom as MW, the themed kit kat 4.2. It has a all the features (specially the bluethooth working), and has kit kat experience. But battery is not as draining as you said, yesterday I went all the night with 5%. The wifi is the only battery killer, but otherwise not too much. I use the one power guard to save battery and is the heaven.

Well the Kitkat is based off CM10 and yes, CM10 has the biggest battery drain.
You wanted Kitkat themed alike and noting comes close as that ROM, still no-one said it would be perfect
If I were you, I would just get ICS ROM and get some Kitkat theme for homelaucher and theme manager. Satisfy both battery and kitkat UI
