Does the ROM matter for batterylife? - General Questions and Answers

Hey guys,
is the ROM actually important for a good battery life?
Or is it the kernel?
As an example if you run MIUI and Cyangonmod, will both of them have a comparable battery life? (same kernel and settings, deepsleep etc. works)

Council kernel-ROM combination, please!

Hi friends, please help me in the choice between Roma and the kernel to save more battery and then above all stability.
Currently I mount thaiz 2.7.1, kernel with titan 5r, but the battery lasts me anything.
Honestly you that you try, I know how to give the right combination of ROM and kernel
How to use more titan kernel and acura, thaiz shortly.
As you can see a little rom you.
What interests me more than the battery!
Try the 6R kernel or v.4.2 for better battery, v.5 was not the best for battery imo. When I ran .4.2 with Thiaiz 2.7 I had amazing idle performance and stability, 6 hours overnight without losing 1%. This all just my experience and surely other people may disagree with me or will have had a different experience.
Your rom and how '? The battery life and 'good with your rom? Other rom the new acura cm and the DNA that you tell me? To me the problem is browsing on the internet that I immediately drops the battery! not happened to me first! I have a 1 GHz processor stock

Faux vs Stock Kernel

Anybody have any experience (battery life, performance) using Faux on CM10 for Gnex? I'm on stock and it's fine- battery life is actually stellar- but I'm curious if I can expect any significant gains?

Best rom for battery life

Hello guys,
as for me the most annoying part of a smartphone is running out of battery when there is no chance to recharge, I want to collect your experieces with different roms concerning battery life.
WHich rom gave you the longest battery?
Cheers
There are many factors not only the ROM.
It's the kernel you flashed, it's the settings you have chosen... and at least it's your daily behavior with your phone....
Usually you have a better battery life with custom kernels...

as it was answered
custom kernel with feature as ability to set minimum CPU frequency and probablly voltage control
and U'll have to try some of them in order to find out the wright one
Longest battery life i get with stock rom so far (around 20h with moderate usage)
for custom roms:
Best battery life gave me PAC-Man rom with bubbav4 kernel - which was almost like stock.
ViperOneS had the worst battery life for me.
just try some roms and kernels, it also depends on how you use your phone of course.
in my experience, 4.2.2 roms have the lowest battery life ~3.5 hours screen on + wifi on (active Web surfing) with auto brightness.
Viper rom 2.1 ~4 hours
aosp 4.1.2 (cm10) and viper 1.2.1 ~4.5
very rough numbers obviously so no one roast me. remember I'm talking about total screen on time as reported by the battery app.
The newer jb 4.2 roms are very popular and have a lot of great features, but if battery is your thing, try out some of the older android and sense roms.

For me it was pretty much a tie between Liquid Smooth with Bubba Kernel(OC to 1890 for heavy periods, 1134 for light usage, and complete collapse of the CPU when the screen is off) And Viper One S with the Stock Kernel. Like everyone said though you'll experience wildly different numbers depending on what settings you use and how much
Viper has always had phenomenal battery life.

Complete collapse of Cpu when screen off? Is that pm sleep mode 1 or 0?
Thank you very much. Unfortunately my phone jack is broken so I cannot test your configs, will report after repair though.
Cheers

There's a setting on through Android Tweaker that gives you the option to control how the phone deep sleeps basically

[Q] rom vs kernel in battery life

This is a rather simple question do different roms really have better battery life then others or is it more of the choice of kernel? Do roms effect battery life as much as the choice of kernel? I currently have vipers Rom and just maxed out at 3:20 of screen on time with stock battery with underclocked and undervolted Sebastian kernel and want to no if switching to elegancia Rom would really make a difference in battery at all
Thanks

Hi,
Battery usage is a very subjective matter.
Everyone uses their phones differently,so , judging battery life between people is hard.
Yes , some ROMS are better than others.
Yes, some kernels are better than others.
It is the combination of the right ROM and kernel for you that is going to matter.
And no one can tell you what that is.
Experiment for a couple of days to see how they work.
READ what other people are saying about them in the threads.
OR,
Get a couple of spare batteries,and carry them around with you,and then , power is never a problem.

Seems to have good battery life for now.
Yes, Aria.A97 Rom has very good Battery life with smooth Performance.
For me the best Rom.
I additionally debloated and set some tweaks like Windows Animation Scale to 0.15 or some build.prop tweaks... the Rom runs fast as hell and have Screen on Time around 3 1/2h to 4h.

Plus once xposed becomes available you will be able to tweak your battery with amplify
