You should not be comparing kernels or roms. If you want to see which one is better, use both of them and you'll get to know.

Best Kernel?

What kernel has been performing the best on the OPO so far? I haven't flashed anything apart from stock yet. I usually use Franco, but thought it might be best to wait for a few more versions to be released first.
Are there any other alternatives?
What one has had better battery life?

With Franco I have 1.9% consumption battery per hour with his last kernel R12

What he said there is no best kernel. If you need a list of kernels to use, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=52641497&postcount=2 see that post. Good luck, pick the one that best suites you.

Since what's best for your device is purely subjective and we don't encourage competition on this site, "What's the Best...?" type threads are not allowed.
Please try to do your own research. No one here can tell you what's best for you.

Best combination for battery life?

Hello guys
which combination of rom and kernel scores the best battery life?

It's simple:
Kernel: Usage differs
Rom: Questions Belong in Q&A based on 4.4
Sorry if my answer may be 'cocky' but we've got a special section on XDA for questions and answers.

Use the search feature in xda, there are many tips for battery improvement.
On other hand, i get 5 hours 30mins SOT on wifi and 4 hours SOT on 4G with stock rom and with medium usage.
No matter what you do, flashing diff rom/kernel won't get you any proper battery improvement. Just stick with stock rom and wait for Android L for a better battery performance and usage.

Yes stick with stock..

Battery is nothing to do with ROM and kernel combination. It is to do with ROM and kernel settings.

Read the first 4 posts in the battery thread in my signature.
And as pointed out above....roms/kernels make a very minor, if any difference to battery life.
Setup, usage and signal strength are the main factors. ?

I have a notepad for XDA posts and link copy pastes. I'll just add the standard statement for this to it. Lol
Someone asked me to stop repeating this recently, I said no....I won't stop trying to help the misinformed. ?

Its totally based on your use. There's no magic combination that works for everyone!

If there was anything that was "best for battery life", wouldn't someone have been able to prove it by now?
I guess it doesn't help with so many claiming their new ROM/kernel has greatly increased their battery time. Subjective opinions with out proper testing shouldn't be taken as fact though.

think about how many people using any kernel/rom claim that its the best for battery. then again, there are just as many people that claim that the certain kernel/rom give them the same battery life. in reality though, its all about you. how you use your device, how you set it up, which apps you use, etc. but there is one variable that you have no control over, thats the quality of your phone/data connection. and that will determine what is the best battery possibility is for you. if your phone/data signal isnt good quality, then your battery life will always suffer, no matter what.

9 times out of 10....it's the flashing the new Rom and or kernel that clears out an undiagnosed battery issue they had and magically their battery life seems awesome on the new Rom or kernel. ?

Yep. Maybe someone(hint hint) should start an "All-in-one Best thread". Since the reversal of XDA policy I would much rather see all this nonsense contained to one singular thread than reposted in different forms every six hours. I would do it but I'm lazy and wouldn't be able to give that thread the attention it deserves. Just some food for thought.

It's been suggested to do that, like the N7 2012 has had for awhile....but the individual threads are still allowed and preferable to one dedicated thread.
That was told to me. Reason is the "best" questions usually come with something else. Not just "best Rom"....usually best for this or that....or comparing this to that.
I like the one thread idea....but it what it is and those resisting it are best to let it go and ignore the threads if that's their choice.
That was also said by moderators.
Just letting everyone know. ?

Thanks KJ.
I just PM'd one of our mods about the issue. He said he'd go over it with the Mod committee. I also asked for it to be started by a mod and stickied. We'll see what happens. Either way it's the same stuff repeated over and over. Copy and paste. lol

I asked for some rules. Eg "what ROM has this feature set" = yes, ambiguous best threads = no.
However we probably shouldn't hijack these threads to discuss it.
Everyone with suggestions pm a helpful mod such as @El Daddy and maybe we'll get a compromise, but for now let's just answer the threads with the usual answers

Anyone asking questions like this should stick to stock rom and kernel.
If you can't be bothered to actually use some roms and kernels and tell us what you think how can you evaluate an answer?
Also, obviously you are getting into a touchy area and rejecting anything rom/kernel devs can have to say about it. You want them to come here and battle it out for you?
There is no such thing as best, and many of the custom roms and kernels make a good combo. Look at the rom and kernel threads and decide which gives you the options you want.

best customizable rom for nexus 5.

please tell me the best customizable rom for nexus 5 rom.

The one that works best for you. I would suggest reading the threads in the original development or Android development forums, and pick the one that looks best for you.
This thread should likely be moved to the general or Q&A section, or removed entirely...best rom threads seem to amount to a load of subjectivity.

Actually, they asked what was the "best customizable" rom, which means the rom with the most features capable of customizing to their needs. I don't see why everyone on here has to be so negative towards people that are just looking for help. The answer (given due research) would not be "subjective" because each rom has a certain number of features strictly dealing with customization. This would lead to a very definitive answer. What's the old saying??? If you can't say something nice (in this case helpful would be a more operative word), why say anything at all?
As for an answer to the OP: For kitkat and below, the most customizable one would be PAC rom. Check it out. It's a combination of the features of Paranoid Android, AOKP and Cyanogenmod. I think you may enjoy it for personalization and outstanding battery life due to their tweaked kernel and performance settings.

Micmars didn't want to be offence. He just try to this forum stays as clear as possible. Question has to be moved to Question section.

Thanks for your help bro.... M the fan of pac rom but m currently on lollipop 5.1.1 so suggest me similar to pac man rom.

I'm hooked on Euphoria OS now.. I suggest you check it out. 5.1.1 with most all of the amenities of PacRom. Loving the battery life on it, as well.

Still "best" and "ROM" Iin the same sentence always starts up a riot. Most customization within a ROM would have been better to say... Just saying good day people :thumbup:

I agree with "best" but the most customizable custom rom does exist regardless the stability and so on...

Best kernel for OPO

What do you think is the best kernel for our loved OPO?
With the best balance between Performance, Smoothness ans Battery Life.

There is no best kernel. Kind of these threads arent allowed.

Hence why there will never be a final answer or conclusion to this thread, which the OP could have read instead of making yet another best rom/kernel thread:
