[Discussion] Best ROM for best battery life! - Samsung Galaxy R i9103

Hello dear XDA members and non-members!
I'm sure that I'm not the only one who've been wondering about this. And since there no official thread about this type of things, I will make a thread for it.
My problem is that these ICS/JB ROMs drains the batterylife to 200%. So we need to decide, Gingerbread, ICS or JB. What do you guys think?

For me,
GB - Neo ROM 2.1 on ZSLE5 - No Lags, or call drops! - 3 days Tops
ICS - XXLQ9 Stock with Stock Kernel - Lags alot and calls drop - 2 days tops
JB - CM 10.1 2.4 with new Kernel and One Power Guard Installed - No lags using CFQ Governor and 1.1Ghz OC, No Call Drops- 1.5-2 days tops

For me,
GB - Stock 2.3.5 Indian firmware was the best with battery backup.. Yep, wit moderate usage, even i got 3 to 3.5 days tops.
ICS - Stock XXLQ9 just like fenix said, with stock kernel gave 2 to 2.5 days tops.
JB - CM10.1 2.2 build actually gave me 1.5 days tops, but 2.4 1 day max.
And about lags and call drops, CM doesn't have any if installed perfectly. ICS is bloody laggy.. And GB was better without any lags..

And I thougt the battery life would be better with JB, but that have been prooven that it is not.

ICS Battery life ftw
Bb rom 1-1.5 days
Nokia 2110-->Sony Ericsson k750i -->Nokia 5233 --> Samsung Galaxy R

Mazel II ICS ROM with ardatdat kernel 4.2 beta 6, the best so far. 2 days with normal use without problems.

Liquid ROM 4.2.1 with cyanogen kernel. I listen yo spotify on it via WiFi for 8 hours straight and get 2 days out of it.

I'd be interested in user feed back as to the speed and fluidity of this ROM when compared to say fallout and then Endy?
As I won't have yet opportunity to try sort myself until the weekend

Camer and 3d games working? Is this better than ice ds?
Sent from my HTC Desire S using xda app-developers app
Camera and 3D games do work. It's slightly slow as compared to Fallout, since the One S has 1 GB RAM and we only have 768 MB. Killing apps via task manager solves the occasional lags. It uses the stock kernel 3.0 I recommend you switch to it as soon as you have time, it'll keep me off JB for a while
Just put it on the Mrs phone it seems to run well so far, the occasional slowdown but nothing to be too concerned about.
Camera and WiFi hotspots are the deal breaker for me.......
In all the Roms I tried the indoor photos doesn't come upto the actual 5Mp quality........ I mean with xperia x10 mini...... I got better pics ..... Don't kno y it show this much difference....... N many of ma friends mostly need my data to be shared......
How is the camera clarity of this Rom.....?? Does it come upto the stock one????

Are there any screen? I already have the Virtuous Saga V.1.0 Rom and I wonder how it looks like with Sense 4... Also because I've tried a couple of Sense 4.0 roms and I didn't like the appearance so much...
Here's a video of Infinty -

is it only me or everyone? (lag in most games)

i usually feel lag in most of the 3d games like MC3 Fallen nation,nova 2,3 , asphalt 7 bla bla bla,,, and when i see videos on youtube running the same games with neo v , arc, desire HD, they look a lot smoother ,,
why does it lag on my desire s????
are you running stock Rom with sense? It was one of the reasons I rooted mine, solved the lag issue straight away.

Well if you're running the rom that's in your signature it's no surprise considering it's using the cm9 kernel which is still in alpha stages. You're not going to get the same performance on a rom that doesn't have the best drivers and optimized kernel compared to the stock gingerbread or stock sense ICS roms such as the incredible s rom that was ported over using our ICS 3.0 sense kernel. If you're using the stock rom then it could be that you're nearly full on memory or you have to many apps running. Those games are really resource heavy games and the desire s is only a 1ghz single core device. In today's standards that's becoming quite poor. But the games shouldn't be lagging too much. You're going to get lag on nova 3 and asphalt 7 because they are brand new so they will be optimized for dual core devices on ICS

I'm running asphalt 7 and nova 3 with no lag whatsoever, ok I'm oc but only to 1250. Don't know why they would lag, only thing I can think of is the sense elements taking ram

I must of installed over 20 different roms when I had my desire and I didn't find one that was as "smooth" as the stock rom. Maybe a little bit quicker but not as smooth. I think the main problem could be someones view on what they think is laggy and what they think isn't. There are people out there who think anything less than 50fps is laggy which is ridiculously smooth or people like me who think anything less than about 25fps is laggy. It would help if the Op replied to this thread to let us know what rom he is running
Im running project X
4.0 sense 4 rom. Before i was running ice cold sandwich ,but that was scary ,bcoz my device all ways frozed during running heavy games.

what rom r u using?
Currently I'm running codename, and before this blindIce, Blindbean and Reaper. I've avoided all sense Roms like the plague. No offense to the devs just don't like sense anymore.

is the rom stable and worth daily use?
codename is a lovely Rom, ok for daily use.been on it since blind uploaded it. A few problems like camera and small issues nothing to stop me using it though.

at the moment video playback forces restart, but is still only a test port, blindndumb will probably look at it after he's sorted out to build from source

[Q] 3D performance poor

Hello,
I have recently got the Xoom and flashed a JB rom as soon as I unboxed it, I have noticed 3D performance is not great on some games. Can anyone suggest a rom with good 3D performance or if it performed better in HC/ICS.
Just get TeamEOS or CM roms and overclock the XOOM. You should get better performance, keep in mind the XOOM is 2 years old now so all the games won't run smoothly.
I have installed a 4.1.2 Rom and it has made a massive difference.

[Q] Unbelieavable performance on petru 4.2 ROM

I just want to share my happiness, I tried all available ROMS available on XDA on my TF300T, including Blue V3.0 from same author, while they all run Ok, I wasn't never satisfied about the general performance, with this 4..2 ROM, there is no more Lags at all, everything is smooth and fluid, running at 1.3 Ghz. I haven't touched my Ipad 4 since I installed the greatest ROM ever. thanks petru. I just have one question, when it's going to get fixed the dock notification and the charging notification missing in current version 5?

Jelly Bean vs. Gingerbread

I just wan´t to collect some Opinions which one you like more.
sorry for my bad english
Is this serious surly JB is more and more better then GB.
GB is more stable than JB. If you are a gamer, i advice you to stay on GB
Sent from my GT -I8160 using xda devolopers app
For now, GB is noticeably faster than JB when it comes to games/navigating around menus.
On JB navigating through the system settings is pretty horrible, takes 1-1,5 seconds to get from one tab to another.
JB is more modern though, looks nicer, has a better notification bar, supports more apps.
I'd wait for an official, unbranded JB release before switching over.
No! GB is not beter than JB. When you have right settings on it , it runs few times better than GB. Definitely recommend to flash on JB
Ps. Best for now - MC8 + Italian Job + Supercharger V6 + removed bloatwares + DISABLE AUTO ADJUST SCREEN TONE ( in settings - display, this fix is for lag in games used on leaked versions and some new users don't know about it)
for me
gingerbread is alot better for gaming
but tooo ugly
the jellybean is opposite
weak in gaming and very nice
buhaha GB better in gaming...yeah go for it! Instal GB and come play with me in Shadowgun Deadzone or run Vice Ciy on full...GB have better ram management (now...) but gpu and cpu on GB is 50% slower.
No? Instal RD 3D benchmark. On GB ALLWAYS ON ALL ROMS you get 30fps overal score.
On JB you get 42-45 fps overal score and lern use fps.meter.
I have check some games in that same place/situation and ALLWAYS on JB is more fps. You can feel only droops because ram is not good now on JB but properly settings solved that problems for me.

Are we have different devices? I am always getting lags on ui also ram hunger games.

Ram in games...sometimes are problems if you have less free ram but fps/s is a LOT better on JB
Try on GB with fps meter: Dead Triger on max, Vice city on max and Most Wanted and than on Italian Job 1.0.0 (with fps meter) You will see big deferences on JB+)
Praying for better fitted JB. ZTE blade gets 7k on antutu benchmark but we can't. ZTE is 600 mhz single core. Ace 2 800 mhz dual core. It makes me insane !!

what are the properly settings that can solve ram problems?
please tell us
...because zte blade run another one test hehehehe armv6 have not that sam test like armv7(b) Our device can get 20k on that test...why you compare so slow phone to ours in so bad benchmarks like quadrant/antutu. We have only one good benchmark (Rd3d) because that benchmark allways show that same framerate! Our one core is ~2 times faster than Zte blade. I had that phone before and I know what he can do after OC to 720/760 and CM7 and ...that phone have only good TFT(800/480) If you want you can get on zte blade 5k in quadrant after JIT becaus then quadrant generate bugs in graphics (all is white) DONT USE THAT BENCHMARKS to compare devices. Simply- stock S2 have in Quadrant 3k. Our phone have now on JB 2900+ so my device is fast like S2? NO.
Oh i dont know that point.

S2 have similar score without OC .And what? My Ace 2 Is fast like S2? (...) No! Is ~2 times slower on GPU and ~1-1,5 times slower on CPU…
And we have better score than nexus
Sent from my GT-I8160 using xda premium
If you have lags on JB in games try this:
1. Instal Kyrillosv7b (for MB4) or Italian Job v1 (for MC8)
2. Disable Auto adjust screen tone (Settings-screen)
3. Instal Supercharger for better ram management
4. Delete all bloadware apps (there is list somewhere)

TMN sh.ts OUT, GPU 2d rendering ON, good launcher, auto brightnes adjust off, sounds off , no wigets, no animated wallpaper,, and 100x more solution. I dont have time for this...ask someone other or do a thread wheare people can write settings and chose one from them.
Edit: I am on IJ 1.0.0 also so you see right now differences. Settings vs settings.
