My fiance has had her charge for a while now and she is starting to get fed up with the battery life and lag. We have gone as card as turning off the 4g but she is still unable to make it through the day on a cullen charge with very little use. What rom would be best for improved battery life while maintaining the look and feel of touchwiz?
Thanks

I would say your best bet is eclipse or tweak stock. Not really touchwiz but very great roms.
Eclipse thread can be found here

Tweakstock you'll see in development section.

I recommend using eclipse or tweakstock for a rom. But you may want to just try imnuts custom kernel first and under volt the cpu. http://rootzwiki.com/topic/137-01-30-12peanutbutta-jelly-time/ That would improve the battery. If you're still not satisfied then try a rom with the kernel.
If you phone is ROOTED. You can download "battery saver" by Antutu from the Market(free) and try out for 2 days. This may help you with your battery without too much hassle.

I would recommend not doing that. I downloaded it and it broke the radio until i factory reset. The app is not made for this phone

What!! I'm running it right now with Tweakstock and PBJ kernel and it really really save me battery big time. I have tried to under volt, and turning off 4G, lower screen settings etc.. not help. Max I can get is 6-9hrs. After installed this, I hit 15 hrs normal use and 20hrs light usage. It controlled the CPU frequency and put my phone in very deep sleep. If I just make 1hrs of total calls and 20-30 text I can hit 20hrs easily. If I used Facebook heavily (65% screen on, about 3hrs total), I get 6-8hrs. Something is funky with your setup. During testing I uninstalled and reinstalled this app couple times and never any issue. Do me a favor while you're back to fresh stock, rooted and pop it back on see if it's working. I'm happy to provide screen shots if you don't believe me.
BTW, I have wifi,4g,gps on 24/7. While I'm in my house it automatically used wifi and when I'm out on the road it switched to 4g automatically. The samsung factory feature is working fine too.
Thanks for all the suggestions. I think I might give tweak stock a try

The last few ROMs I tried, Tweakstock, Infinity, Gummy...all were very laggy. Didn't seem to matter what I did or how I did it. Camera was always a crap shoot on whether it would freeze up or not. I finally said the hell with it and went back to stock and then just plain rooted it. So far so good. It sucks cause I hate TW and the look of stock...but at least the phone is responsive.
Try Eclipse
You should really give Eclipse ROM a try. It is extremely smooth and fast....very responsive and the devs and community over at the site are very helpful if you run into problems. Yesterday, with light use, my phone was at 60% (15h 11m 25s on battery) at the end of the day. Best battery life I have ever gotten out of my Charge yet. Give it a try....you will not be disappointed.
Sounds more like something with the way you are flashing and/or your data restore. I would suggest that if you ever flash anything again you start from a totally clean slate
Charged up post!
I did flash from a clean slate multiple times, first few days the new builds seemed OK. After awhile it just got worse and worse. I've been on the rooted stock build for over two weeks and it still is pretty good. I'm done tweaking this phone, I'll have an upgrade option in May and then I will probably get the Nexus or wait a bit if something else worthwhile is coming soon.
I recently purchased this phone, and have been appalled by the battery life, it's atrocious. I also seem to have a bug with Maps that keeps draining me, even though I don't use any location services, etc. So now, I'm going to install a new rom, and see if my battery improves significantly. My question is, which rom is the best with battery life? There is no point in having this fancy phone if you can't use it because the battery is dead before you even get out of work and it's just been sitting in your pocket -_-, this is what happened to me.
Right now I'm downloading CleanROM 6r2, latest build. I do intend on flashing it later tonight and testing how the battery level is, and if it still declares I'm roaming when I'm obviously not.
Right now I'm stock, rooted and bootloader unlocked I have no put any roms on the phone as of yet, but battery is terrible regardless. My brother has the same phone, same carrier and same battery issues albeit, not nearly as detrimental as mine.
Thanks in advance. If CleanROM is the best with battery life thus far that would be great. I'd like to try 4.2.2, but hear it's got terrible battery life?
Sorry to be the first to say that "what's the best Rom" is frowned on around here
You really need to find out what works best on your phone through reading and testing.
However just to point you in the right direction. clean Rom has never let me down and synergy can sleep like a baby
Finally I'd think it is safe to say aosp Roms will never compare to battery on tw
They can still be very good but for your purpose you may have better luck else where.
God bless the American people
You could just freeze maps if you are not using it.

95% battery life is controlled by the Kernel, not the rom. The other small 5% can contribute to battery such as odex vs deodex, quick boot up. Also, I'm not going to bring in user settings control such as screen brightness, apps sync intervals etc.. I'm talking about if we have 2 devices with the exact same setup, the kernel is where it makes a diff in battery saving.

This ^^. I thought about it, but its just too big and intrusive.
Besides, my phone shouldn't die idle in my pocket. My brothers AT&T S3 stayed on for 3 days without usage, mine died in under 8 hours.
Anyway, I do understand that "what is the best" is frowned upon. I've been around a little while, I'm just not very active. I really wanted more of a general answer regarding user feedback with certain roms, or experiences maybe.
Also, regarding the kernel that is news to me, I didn't know that. Thanks for the information. I guess I can redirect my search to a kernel.
I do want to report though that my battery life has improved significantly I think than what it was before. Granted the rom was just installed today and has already died, I used it very heavily today though as opposed to the very minimal usage that killed it previously. I wont for certain until I get back to school and have it idle around for a while.
I'll check out Synergy if I'm not impressed, although CleanROM right now has fixed the MAPS issue I was experiencing. It no longer shows it as something that's killing my battery and I left all the settings the same as they were. So that tells me it was an obvious bug in my software specifically or something of that nature. So far so good.
P.S., did you personally have better life with Synergy over CleanRom?
Btw, I have always maintained a modest setup on my phone that should improve battery life. Low screen brightness, no WIFI unless I need it, no mobile data unless I want it or need it. I never checked on sync intervals though, I'll have to do that.^_^
It all depends on the kernel and its setting. My experience so far is that I overall get good battery life with LeanKernel, GalaxyKOR, KT kernel regardless what ROM I use. I also use DS Battery Saver in Slumberer mode. At one point after fully charging my phone I left the screen off for 8 hours woke up it went from 100 % to 97%.
I'll check out DS battery and some of those kernels. What is your primary ROM? I'm digging CleanRom right now.

Went ahead and flashed lean kernel v 1.10 now my phone wont boot up. I get 2 Samsung Galaxy logo's then it turns back off. ?

So my backup saved me. After that I went through file directory for leankernel and seen nothing about 1.10 haha, so I guess I downloaded something wrong. Now I'm going to try flashing 2.1 will report.
Edit: So, I did flash the wrong kernel on accident. New 2.1 kernel worked for me this time.

Leankernel has an TW and AOSP version. Good thing you did a backup.
Download Better Battery Stats to better track down your wakelocks. Besides that I don't really think there is anything that can be significantly improved going from ROM to ROM. 4.2.2 ROMs are starting to rival TW in terms of battery life. The biggest battery killer is low signal. If you are in a building or on the edge of a service area having your phone constantly switching towers or going from 3g/4g really eats up the battery.

There are Touchwiz and AOSP versions of Lean Kernel. Look in the original development section and flash the appropriate one for your ROM.

I purchased the 7000mah battery and lost my data connection when I was away from my house. I asked around and it's a known bug, but a lot of people don't care because the battery lasts so long. I have the 4200 hyperion and 4400 Anker and love the Anker... as a back cover, I use Seidio's cover because the ones that come with Anker and Hyperion are crap.
On my phone, I have used almost all the TW and AOSP ROMs.... For me, CleanRom gets the best battery. I am not into messing with my performance settings, I don't find it helps all that much and causes more problems than it's worth. With the Anker battery, I go through about 35% battery per day... if I let my phone get down to 5% battery life left, I usually have somewhere around 6 hours of screen time. For me, that's plenty.
So lately I've been working late and I am allowed to use my phone to listen to music at work. On days that I work late, I am forced to bring my phone charger to work because it doesn't last me all day, not even close. According to my battery page in settings, I've had a screen time of only 40 minutes today, and listened to roughly only 20 minutes of music with a few short texts sent here and there and I'm already down to 74% battery life. I am running the most recent official Liquidsmooth (2.3 release) and have my brightness turned way down, and the CPU turned down to a max of 1124Mhz. I am also running the kernel that comes with the ROM, which I'm almost positive is LeanKernel.
Is it normal to be draining my battery this fast with not even an hour of screen time and barely using it? I even turn off data usage when I don't use my phone because I'm concerned about battery life. Is there anything I can do to improve battery life? I don't even touch the Voltage Settings and Advanced Settings under the Performance section, because I don't want to touch anything I don't know what to do or what settings make the ROM unstable. Anyone who can suggest good settings for more stable battery life, even if it sacrifices performance would be a huge help too! Thank you in advanced

Hear hear. Great rom but something is burning my battery in this rom.
I agree! I love it, I've tried so many ones and this is the only one I've been completely satisfied with basically every aspect! Except the only thing I can complain about is the battery life. Anyone have any suggestions?! I'm already down to 55% battery now

Same here. I'm only getting about 10-12 hours of battery life. Read some suggestion about using the KT747 kernel but not sure which download to use. Touchwiz 4.1.2, AOSP Jellybean 4.2 Linux 3.0, AOSP Jellybean 4.2 Linux 3.2?

The correct kernel is the AOSP 3.4 Linux version. That being said I just flashed that kernel with 2.2 last night and it seized up my phone. Nandroid now. So that was a bad night.

Thanks! I downloaded and flashed it. No problems here. Just need to find the correct tweaks for better battery life.
Let me know what you find. I'm still on the stock lean kernel for LS
I'm curious as well what these battery tweaks are. I installed liquidsmooth 2.4 over the weekend and have since moved back to my rooted stock primarily because of battery drain. I really like the aosp interface but can't afford to have it rape my battery. I was getting like 6 Hrs only on a charge. With my stock rooted rom I get about 19 Hrs on a full charge.
I am using liquidsmooth 2.4 and have been going for 17hrs today still got 20% left. I have the lean kernel that it flashes with and never had battery issues.

Hey guys, would love to get some advice on batteries for this phone. I would like to buy an extended battery or at the very least a spare that I could swap out when my main one dies (which happens far too frequently for my liking). I've heard some talk on these forums about Nexus batteries fitting in these phones, is that true? And if so what Nexus battery should I purchase to be sure it would fit? If not any aftermarket batteries that you guys recommend or would I be better off with OEM? Thanks in advance for the advice!

I'm using the latest 'stable' build of CM10, CM 10-20130107 and whatever the default kernel is for that ROM. Battery life isn't awful but I wouldn't really call it great either. If I'm just around the house on WiFi all day I can get about 3 hours ish of screen on time and maybe 10 hours of standby. Problem is as soon as I go mobile 4G seems to really suck the battery dry. I'll get maybe an hour and a half of screen on time and shortly after that it will die. The strange thing is that I have all of my push notifications off for everything except Facebook, no email or any other apps are seeking data (in theory), Google Play isn't allowed to update when on mobile data so I'm not sure why being on 4G makes such a difference but it really seems to drain the battery fast. I have noticed a few things when trying to troubleshoot battery issues that I've had, CPU almost never seemed to go below 384 MHz according to CPU Spy so it was never hitting deep sleep like it should. I went ahead and uninstalled almost all my apps on it and now it does seem to enter deep sleep more often. Another interesting thing that I notice is that sometimes the phone will just be sitting in my pocket not doing anything and it will be really warm for some reason (almost like CPU has been working under full load for a long time) even though I haven't been using it at all. Seems to only do that when I'm not on WiFi so maybe something to do with the 4G modem? Anyway if you have some advice on a better ROM or kernel that would give me better battery life I would be happy to hear it. Battery life is really my only gripe with this phone.

I've been able to pull about 12-13 hours with minimal use on CM 10 w/ BlueLightning X2 kernel underclocked a bit, so I'm thinking its time for a new battery. When I first got it I was able to get somewhere around 16 hours on the debloated stock GB ROM. Ideally I would love to be able to get at least 18 hours, so that I could make it through an entire day and night with a few hours to spare, but I don't see that happening.
I love this phone, but hate having to worry about the battery mid-way through the afternoon. I really do miss the days of my old BlackBerry getting 3+ days of heavy use before it started to warn me to charge it...

I've honestly thought about going back to stock firmware several times, thinking that the battery might be better there along with better stability. I love CM-10 for the looks and just overall usability but with random reboots still happening at least once a week and other little quirks along the way I've wondered if I might not be better off with something a little more consistent as my daily driver. I did try Lighting Zap Kernel at one point, perhaps problem with how my mod was installed or something but I found my phone to be consistently slower and laggy with it so I removed it and went back to base CM-10 kernel.

Well the thing was I only lagged when I had Lightning Zap installed so either it was stupidity on my part or too much gunk in the file system or something else. I'm a little confused as to what AOKP is, I was under the understanding that it's a kernel, but Lightning Zap is also a kernel and you can't have two right? I did try the Gremlin Remover, which completely screwed up my phone the first time, so I went back, used black hole, then Gremlin Remover, and reinstalled everything from scratch, phone seems to be stable now but I did have a black screen on death once since then. Somehow in that whole process my 32gig SD card seems to have died : (

I would use the latest nightly instead or the stable. I also use blue lightning x2, I have better batterywith it than with Lightning Zap. Using mobile data with the screen on will kill your battery no matter what.
If your phone is not sleeping correctly (normally I will loose 1 percent a hour on wifi while sleeping, I also do a high level ATK kill before). Try doing a backup and run black hole and fsc a few times and format the emmc (backup important stuff). Then a flash of the nightly, kernel and gapps.

Compare my screenshot attached to your battery life stats on CM11. I wanted to make this post due to my satisfaction with going back to CM10.2 in lieu of CM11. There is not really any functionality missing that I can tell. I consider myself a moderate to heavy user. With CM11 I was having to always be chasing around a phone charger or my phone would die or almost die a couple times a day. I immediately noticed an improvement in battery life and the CM10.2 snapshot I am running is very stable..
If anyone is getting frustrated with this phone on the latest builds I would suggest going back. I feel like its breathed new life into my experience with the phone. We have a tendency to always chase the newest and latest and greatest but its not always greatest. I feel like that is a microcosm for the story of the MPQ. Tech industry and the general consumer moved on from keyboards like sheep for some reason and the MPQ I feel is still a superior phone to anything on the market simply due to the keyboard. Its an essential piece of hardware to me. I've bought like 10 of these phones and will gladly buy 10 more..
What's your 'screen on' stats look like? That's where the rubber hits the road.
Of course things like crappy mobile signal, wifi being used over mobile, etc will significantly impact battery life.
Hi,
I've flashed CM12 right after my MPQ arrived. I used it with this ROM (with updates) for about a year. Yesterday i got really upset because all of the lags and stutters in CM11, so I've flashed the last CM 10.2.1 ROM. OH MY GOD. My phone runs so much faster and the battery life is awesome. No more lags etc. It feels like a complete diferent phone...now I am really happy with it!
Thanks matt2k12 for the idea of downgrading
EDIT: I use the CM 10.2.1 ROM, just google it. It is in the "stable" section in CM downloads
I sent my phone to get modded a while back and it came back with Carbon ROM on it. The phone runs pretty slow lately.
Do you guys think the Carbon Rom is not the way to go? I've been very disappointed in the performance lately so much so that I was considering a new device.. but I really need the keyboard. I dont have time to mess around with a touch screen.
Should I go for the 10.2.1 ?
you say so very feeling!

而且功能多, 人性化, 比如手势的功能就很好用, 而且最新的版本流畅度和待机耗电都做的很不错!

I often get somewhat same graph on kitkat(karbon-kk-f2fs), but this screenshot cant tell much. Show graph details(tap on graph).
Performance(at least in apps and apex launcher) is very good(smooth). In games its not so smooth due to some of my tweaks that decreases 3d performance, but improves framerate stability.
Same charge:
