Which radio are you gents getting good performance with decent battery life? I'm kicking around T989UVMC6 and it seems to be more power hungry but perhaps its just my area. I don't think this is very good battery life as I've barley used my phone today. I'm considering buying the battery for the nexus as it has a little more capacity and I've read it fits but I'm waiting on confirmation.
Anyways..I'm testing slimbean 3.1.0 build 3 with the T989UVMC6. I'm thinking of trying the LV kernel, what governor and I/O scheduler are providing good results for you guys?
And this battery: EB-L1D7IVZ

As of now. I am using CM10 latest nightly. Using Bluelightning X2. SmartassV2 and SIO. Overclocked to 1728. Minimum is 192. Getting decent 16 hours of battery life.

Is this the one your referring to? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2025488&highlight=bluelightning+x2
You running the standard JB one and not the GPU OC one? You seem to be playing with all the roms and kernels to..how would you compare it to LV kernel. Also, what radio are you using? Does it seem like my cell standby time is high in that screen shot? I have only made two phone calls and had the screen on a few times for a few minutes today. The phone was at 100% at the start of the morning and has been very idle so i'm surprised to see it so drained.

On page 5 on that thread is the link for X2. Flash X2 then the GPU OC Zip.. Using UVMC Radio. Haven't flashed LZ in a while so i don't know.
I'm using BlueLightning with Conservative and SIO, minimum frequency is 348 max is 1188. It's not the best combinauon if you prefer performance, I get about 18 or 19 hours of battery life I'm also using the same radio as you BTW .

Which one of these would offer the best battery life? It seems the ICUP kernal is over clocked to 1.3ghz and there is no deep idle either so I would think it would be more of a battery drain.

Icup actually performs very well on my phone. I got 17h yesterday with heavy usage. Galados runs very well also. I would say try both for 2days each and see what works best for u.

For the past week or so I've been using Glados 2.4 CFS, and tried a variety of the features (deep idle, live OC, lazy governor etc.), each having a different impact on battery life. Yesterday I just flashed eugene's Icup kernel and so far it seems to have perhaps slightly better battery life. However it's hard to say after less than a day of usage.
Keep in mind that the ICUP kernel is actually not overclocked to 1.3 GHz by default (it is actually 1 GHz, with a maximum CPU freq of 1.3). You need another app like SetCPU or NSTools to set it to 1.3 GHz. And also, the ICUP kernel apparently does have deep idle, albeit a slightly different implementation than the one made by Ezekeel (the creator of the Glados kernel).
As Esteway said above though, the best way to know for sure is to try both the kernels out yourself.
I've heard of battery calibration, how do you do it? also Im using faux's kernel with it coming with uv, but perhaps should I go lower than that until I find a voltage that keeps my phone going, if I use lower the voltage will it affect my performance at all? perhaps any suggestions on what i should make the voltage. btw im using cm7 nightly/faux's kernel.
I would use the ds faux kernel and undervolt the bottom numbers (anything below 900) to 750. Test what works and is stable. Also set a screen off profile that makes pit at 300 something.
Fairly heavy use and I got 13 hours today.
And battery calibration is a myth.

If you have corrupt battery stats they can affect battery.
after changing voltage i lose the reading on my battery and it says 999% in setcpu lol.
also how long can i expect to play gta III until battery running out on nightly cm7/trinity with max ghz set to 1 and -150 voltage from max on every mhz other than 432/216 and no wifi and lowest brightness
Im running Viper XL and the reason i flashed it is because i heard it has above average battery life, but im getting maybe 10-13 hrs max. I've heard cases of 24 hr battery life, and I cant seem to achieve it. I am running Beast Mode Kernel and have the powersave governor. I am running Stock CPU frequency and have one core active. Am I missing something, because i got better battery life on paranoid android which kind of suprised me.
You really have to drill down on the tweaking and settings. Took me a bit to get what I wanted as well. I completely shut off Google Now, you can toggle off LTE and surprisingly, I raised my min cpu frequency to 594 and ondemand. Shut off HTC powersaver as well. Try a reboot after you tweak up all your settings. I think battery life was better on 2.4.1 but it's pretty well on 3.1 too.

I'm assuming you're running ViperXL 3.1. In that case, I'm surprised you're seeing such poor battery life. But, usage and settings are everything. Things like Google Now and GPS are major battery hogs. Facebook, Google+ and other push applications can also hamper battery life. Check your background sync frequencies! How long is your screen running? At what brightness? etc.
That being said, what strikes me is your kernel. You should not be using Beat Mode Kernel (last I checked it's not even optimized for the latest android version). I recommend you use the stock ViperXL kernel or Elemental v1.5.
I've ran ViperXL 3.1 yesterday with elemental v1.5 for more than 24 hours, 3 hours screen time while syncing 3 e-mail accounts. YMMV but with proper set up it's definitely possible.
Give us more information about your usage!
Alright, thanks for the information on the kernel, its a shame because i heard good about it. But as my screen time i run low brightness and im pretty heavy on texting, I used LTE for about 40 mins total today. can you tell me the way you disabled google now? I've been tweaking the settings a bit and i guess i just havent found my sweet spot.
Edit: And im running 2.4.1 actually sorry should of put that in first post.
Complaining about 13 hours of battery life. O__o

Not a complaint! I'm Just saying i've heard of better
Battery life is a very elusive thing. There are simply too many variables. For every ROM, radio, etc. where people will say they have much better battery life, you will almost certainly find others that have worse. Its just a fact of life with modding phones.
I've gotten about a day and a half on a single charge ever since the phone was released, and over 48 hours with later firmware versions (stock and custom ROMs) as of 2.2X and newer. Some folks can't even get through a half a day.

CleanRom 5.1 might get a little better, but I've had about the same battery life using Viper XL 3.1. A lot of the other things to look at are certain apps that seem to cause a lot of drain (depending on options). The most frequently mentioned are: Google Now, Facebook, and Maps. Other than that, lower brightness and shutting off LTE are the next biggest contenders.
Include your ROM, kernel, governor, and I/o scheduler. I seem to be getting bad battery life with CM10.1 and the tuxafgmur kernel. Not even lasting a whole 24 hours with just average internetting.

P5100 4.1.2 kernel 3.0.31, TGP rom Version 1
less than 24 hours of no activity at all, from 80% to 0% - but probably somthing was eating the battery, maybe screen was left on, or live wallpaper
so testing again, now seems allot better, 3% down over night, looks good so far
I can get over 20 hrs on one charge with carbon ROM. Oc at 1200, stock kernel, stock performance options. Interactive governor, cfq I/o. I play the sims and the Simpsons, and browse the web pretty regularly. I'm happy with it.

Doesn't it overheat? Or heat even a little too much? Also that Carbon ROM looks good according to what a lot are saying.

I'm on a P-5113, so probably a difference. But, really liking PAC Rom. Got the Dhollmen kernel running @1.2ghz with pegasusq and cfq w/1024 cache. With fairly high usage I go two days and still have about 30% left. With very little use like I did this week, I just charged it last night and took it off the charger Sunday morning (yeah 5 days!) and still had 30% when I plugged in. I really like my current setup:good:
ya it does tend to get pretty warm, but i havent had any overheating issues. no random fc's or anything. i love the carbon rom. everything i have been using actually f*ck*ng works. lol. the expanded desktop and pie controls are sweet
I know there are some threads out there that have addressed this topic, but none are for the HOX at least that I can find
I am trying to find out if there is an empirical data that points to the best combo of Kernal/ROM for batter life?
As of right now, I am using RageXL 1.0.3 with the Elemental 6.7 kernal. I have it overclocked to 1.7gHz with the standard voltages. I also ran the Supercharger script in the ROM
I have used VenonXL in the past and it seemed to kick a$$ but with the stock kernal
Also, I understand that there are a myriad of settings that can affect battery/ performance and makes this question very tricky to answer. I am looking sort of the general consensus of the situation
Pretty much all sense ROMs have good battery life. You can clock it lower for better battery.

This.
My best battery was with elemental 6.7, max clock was 1.5 and min was 192 with intellidemand governor and ROW scheduler. Also, I undervolt to 800. Be careful with voltage though, most phones can't handle it.

That's the first thing I noticed about Cyanogenmod. Much lower battery life. I installed SetCPU - will that fight Elemental 6.7's clock settings?
