New Rom/Kernel - Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi guys,
I have just sold my LG G4, because I was tired of the lg ui, so I took back my old (but gold) Nexus 5. Now I'm running last stock, but I would like to improve battery life. I used cataclysm rom, but after the developer's decision, I bought g4. Now I need a new rom and even a kernel to maximise battery life. I found out the xtrasmooth rom, it seems pretty good. Do you suggest it? Which kernel?
Thank you for the help

I would recommend you installing some light AOSP ROM like Pure Nexus or Krexus and blu_spark or ElementalX kernel.

Thank you for the reply! Was Pure Nexus EOL or not? Which is better between blu_spark and ElmentalX ? How is Frako Kernel?

Pure Nexus Nougat won't be officially built for Nexus 5 but Marshmallow version is fully stable. If you want to use Marshmallow, Pure Nexus is one of the best ROMs.
Every kernel is good - bluspark, elementalx or franco. Personally I use blu_spark.

So I'll try Pure Nexus with blu_spark... Settings for the kernel? I used to undervolt -50mv, disable touch boost and set 1958MHz for the cpu and 320MHz for the gpu, something else?

At first, I would only set 1958mhz CPU and 320 GPU. It should be enough to get good battery life.

[Q] Kernels

Hello. I have zero experience in android, but have managed to install stock 4.2.2, root it and install CWM. Now i am asking, what would be the best kernel, wich support overclocking, and possibly undervolting. It should be stable(No random freezes, as i rely on waking up in the morning by my phone, and if it has frozen, nothing good will happen ) Also, would 1.3Ghz be safe amount to oc to in normal usage?
Try kernel from CoolDevelopment it's stable and allows to overclock i'm using it daily and problems so far. I'm not on stock but othrrs have reported kernel is working fine with stock rom.

What's the Best Marshmallow ROM/Kernel[6.0.1+] for Performance on Moto G

As the title says it Im looking for the best rom kernel mix on the Moto G to unleash the beast
Still want some nice features & tweaks tho
Also want battery life but that I can tweak a bit myself...
Really want best performance in multitasking and everything I do not play any games I dont care if my moto g cant play games I only want it to perform in what I do most often... as my moto g is the 8gb version:
-Surf the web on chrome alot
-Listen to different music apps
-Do some work
-FB/Messenger
-Hangouts sms
-Youtube
Want you guys to share what are the best ROMS/KERNELS for the best performance!
Thanks Guys!
Currently running:
Moto G 2013 XT032 falcon
SlimSaber 6.0.1 UberTC
Kaminari Kernel UberTC5.3.x 1.6GHz CPU 533MHz GPU
Just my opinion: Presently if you wanna try CM based ROM, then give Resurrection remix a shot, with its inbuilt kernel. If you wanna go with AOSP then try Turbo ROM.

I have a RessurectionRemix (android 6.0.1). What is the best kernel settings for Moto G for performance?
nevertheless... ID crisis 6.
For performance? easily ZERO Byte kernel by @BryanByteZ. Overclock to 1.6ghz cpu and 600 mhz GPU (1.1 and 450 are the normal values)
Latest ID crisis with latest kaminarikernel, Simply smooth

Searching for the perfect rom-kernel-mod-configs

Im trying to make my moto g last at least 4hs Sot, running smooth always and without lags in games. I want to know wich is the best combination so if anyone knows and want to share his experience, I would say, THANKS!
I'm using Cm13 temasek unofficial with kaminari cm13 kernel
Thaxs, awemsome community

I had been using CM 13 and Hurtsky Kernel since the release. I've had a hard time with that and now I moved to Identity Crisis which is based on stock and Kaminari Kernel. The performance is mind blowing and I get around 5 hours of SoT with heavy usage. UI is really fast and fluidic.
Here's the link to the ROM http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-g/development/rom-identity-crisis-6-t3324595
And here's the link to the Kernel http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-g/orig-development/kernel-kaminarikernel-v2-0-t3345716

Thanks for sharing your experience! I have tested Id crisis about 2 months ago, next weekend I'll give it an other try

If anyone has another combination and wants to share it Im here waitin????
I used krexus caf and hurtsky's kernel and i gave around 4-5 Sot
i'm on the latest from DirtyUnicorn(10.6) with Valkyrie V6(hurtsky's) and i get 4-5hrs SOT on mobile data with sw2w enabled for a full charge (though i never let my battery go below 50%). NO xposed(greenify+amplify) installed. though i have disabled most of the non-essential services with MyAndroidTools.

Just because you are curious. No OC, balanced mode.
These don't mean anything to the actual performance of a ROM. Keep that in mind.

This is with Tesla 20170317 and ElementalX 1.04, overclocked. The downside is I had to switch back to the stock Tesla kernel because it ElementalX refused to see my sdcard. Not good!

Very true. Benchmarks are merely a rough indicator of overall performance under a fixed set of conditions. Actual use of a device will usually vary widely from the benchmark parameters.

Check this thread. Many users have already posted their ROM+kernel combo.

Oh yeah, I forgot to ask, do you change any settings of Optimus kernel?

Not really. The only thing I do is set the minimum CPU frequency to 400 Hz. Otherwise I just leave it with default settings and it works great.
"Best" is such a misused term in the ROM world...
In my opinion, the best is stock... The performance and battery life are exemplary. Moto might screw up a lot of stuff, but they can certainly optimize a ROM.
I just downgraded from Lineage 14.1 to CM 13. Never flashed a custom kernel. It's amazing. No more bugs with Bluetooth or mobile data, far better battery life. I'm at 26% with 4 hrs SOT. I used to barely get 3 with Nougat.
So IMO you should stick with roms based on official Moto software. Unfortunately, almost all of the ones still being updated are Nougat based and thus have lots of bugs. I'm using the last cm13 snapshot from late December.

you're doing something wrong buddy, im getting atleast 5H+ sot on nougat. but thats on my phone
AOSP-CAF + LineageOS Kernel. Really satisfying in battery and performance.
I used to have Resurrection Remix (Marshmallow) + fire kernel, I can reach a SOT of 6, more or less.
