[Q]Nexus 5 Best rom , kernel for battery life without losing performance[CAF VS AOSP] - Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi ,
I have tried allot of roms and i have tried franco kernel. im trying the latest 'stable' version of nougat from today (AOSP)
My question is, and i know it has be asked before and it usually is preferences. What rom that is VERY STABLE, gives the best battery life without it crashing any apps?
The stock is OK but i don't get good battery life or stability of it atm (4.4.2). have tried 6.0 but it didn't run like i wanted it to run, felt a little slow, and i will probably feel the same about nougat definatly because its a little bit beta ish atm.
The roms that i like the best are the once that are almost completely empty with PICO Gapps + Google maps. no bloatware, no extra features, no special customization just stable, smooth, good battery life aosp lovelyness.
Will i get any benefits in trying a CAF rom? and how do i go to CAF? is it just installing a CAF kernel, rom and TWRP version?
are their any CAF roms that are truly empty (aosp like) ?
and is CAF still a thing because i notice CM left it behind a while ago.
Will playing around with stuff like smart launcher, which are a little bit more basic give me what i want? and Ram managing and phone cleaning software like Cleaner master? because it feels like it helps a little but i have read that it might not be very healthy for ur performance yet the 2GB seems a little bit of a bottleneck atm and it seems to give me a slight boost that i require from time to time when clearing the ram.
also will xposed give me addons etc that might help or is it the same thing as the cleaner master story?
Franco kernel did give me a better battery life. but still not 100% what i wanted (yet i am beginning to think that i might have hit the maximum battery life ,that my battery might be slightly worn out and might need a replacement)
Sorry if this question annoys people because i know there is allot of info to be found and people ask this allot but i can't really seem to find a 100% answers as i want em to be.
Thanks in advance
Tell me what options do i have to get the Lightweight, long battery life, fast simple phone that i desire (Mobile Data needs to be on 24/7)

Pure Nexus with Franco Kernel is a really great setup, especially if you use FKUpdater. Use the Battery Saver profile and the battery life is perfect, with decent enough performance. I've tried multiple CM13 CAF builds, but I don't think I could live without Franco Kernel.

what about security patches?

I agree, this setup is really great.... except. How do you apply the monthly security patches? Automatic OTA doesn't like SU or custom kernel or custom recovery. I can't seem to find the OTA images to sideload. So a full adb load of _everything_ followed by reinstallation and rerooting? I've looked all over the forum and couldn't find a good way to get those pesky security updates.

Hi, I'm using stock AOSP with ElementalX kernel and I find this team really good. Battery life is decent with a normal usage without games (I usually arrive at the end of the day) also with T2W features active, my nexus have more than 2 years so battery is not so young. The only problem is that the official ElementalX app is not free but doesn't cost so much. I've never tried franco but I've heard great things about it.
About the monthly update I followed this procedure and everything went fine: http://elementalx.org/how-to-install-android-monthly-security-updates/ I'm not 100% sure that it works with every kernel because you will reflash the stock kernel and ramdisk.

The best battery life I've ever had has been with Pure Nexus and Franco Kernel r89. But a CAF CM14 build should give good results too.

Use CM13 CAF builds. You never come back to AOSP again. Amazing performance and battery backup.
www.nyyu.tk/cm13
Or use Dirty Unicorns for best battery backup. 6hr SOT

I don't use franco kernal. I recommend ElementalX
If u want u can use franco. No problem

CandySix with HellsCore Kernel is also a awesome kit. One of the best ROMs in both (performance and battery) categories. The same about Mark Rom

DU + ElementalX personally given me 4h in use screent DU + Franco has also given me 4h

[Q]Stock ROM with franco or CM11?

So I recently found out that franco kernel is no longer compatible with cyanogenmod 11. I would like to know which is more battery efficient. Having franco kernel with stock rom or cyanogenmod with the kernel that is shipped with it? Does anyone have experience in this?
battery is all about how you personally use your device, how you set it up, what apps you use, and mostly the quality of your phone/data signal. using either cm kernel or franco kernel can give you great battery life or terrible battery life. any kernel will give you great battery life or terrible battery life.

Both are good and have their (dis)advantages. No one can tell you whats best cause different users have different preferences and needs. Best is to try them out yourself and see what you like best.
I am aware of that. I admit that I am quite the power user which mostly results in a pretty bad battery life. I just wanted to know which option has the better potential with the same amount of usage. I guess I'll experiment with it myself then

im one of the heaviest users you will meet, yet i still see a minimum of 5h+ screen on time every day. set up your device right, and if you have a great signal you will have very hood battery life no matter what you use.
Combine rooted stock, Franco kernel and the Xposed framework plus it's various modules and you will get most of the Custom ROM features along with better battery life and stability. I'm very pleased with that combo.

Fastest/smoothest/leanest ROM for the OPO

Hi Folks,
I just wanted to aks whats the best performing ROM for the OPO right now (in your opinion) and why?
Do you notice a difference between AOSP and CM in Speed / Battery Life?
Please always mention the reason why you think its the fastest Rom in your answer.
Thanks for your input!
Best regards,
Dominik
Install MultiROM and try the roms on the secondary slot by yourself....it's more easy and fast than ask and wait answers from other people.
With MultiROM you can install all the roms on the secondary slot according to your storage.
Very easy and useful :good:
Hi!
I've tried a lot of Roms myself.
My main aim with this thread was to get a comparison between CM and AOSP based Roms.
I (personally) feel that AOSP in general is snappier than CM. But it very much depends on the Build.
Thats also why i asked the people to give reasons for their choice

I would recommend Oxygen OS
I'm using DU: http://download.dirtyunicorns.com/files/bacon/Weeklies/
Guys, please also post why you are using which ROM.
And why you think its better in comparison to ther ROMs.
Thanks!
I've used DU which is based on AOSP. It had a snappier performance and was smoother than COS or CM. But the battery life was kinda disappointing. I liked the rom. Then there's SultanXDA's CM13 which is a beast in battery performance. Currently back on Sultan's CM13 again. It's smooth but not as snappy and performing as the AOSP based DU. But then again, Sultan has his rom underclocked to 1.94GHz for battery reasons, so can't blame him for that. :3 He did include a way to get back to max clockspeed. Anyhow, there's another AOSP based rom named Darkobas which I have yet to use but I hear it's neck to neck in battery performance with Sultan's. So that's next on my list.
I would recommend anyone to go for Sultan's CM13. Because being able to survive at least 6-7 hours would get the win from me. And it's not falling back on any features. (not as many as DU tho) That's my opinion.
Fastest: Dirty Unicorn. (Didn't try max clockspeed Sultan's CM13)
Smoothest: SultanXDA's CM13.
Battery: SultanXDA's CM13.
Leanest: Not sure what you meant by Leanest. :3

What's your SOT? Are you on a custom kernel? Mine gives out in 3hours 40-50mins. Even tho I'm always on 3G, messenger, opera mini, Music and a little clash of clans every now and then for attacks. So I switched back to SultanXDA's CM13.

Based on omni.
Leanest (no bloatware), battery friendly, smooth and fast.

In my country internet connection is strongly filtered and has very low speed so I never used 2G...
Because I'd like AOSP based (not CM) roms and by my experience and usage the DU is better totally for now!

If I were you I'd tried Jgcaap' and Sultan's ROM.
Jgcaap for performance and Sultanxda for stability.
Note: If you try Jgcaap's ROM seach for Setting.Out (<- user) settings. He's getting 5h sot at 46% (It's just awesome: http://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-one/development/rom-cm-12-builds-t3045053/page1911 )
There you can see the screenshots.
Good luck!

New life for my old Nexus5

Hi guys,
I wrote some time ago here for a combo of rom/kernel, but then I understood the battery of my phone was dead, so I decided to change it for an lg g4. I broke the screen of g4 and it's too expensive to fix, so I decided to change the battery of Nexus 5. I know this is a dated phone, but I don't have money for a new phone or to fix the glass, so now I have to use it.
Now I ask you for rom and kernel for daily use. I would prefer something Nougat based. I used PureNexus and ElementalX on Marshmallow, the last PureNexus seems fluid and stable, but unofficial.
What do you suggest for my Nexus 5?
Thank you for all replies.

I too am in the position of having to use my Nexus 5 (6P started boot looping) I am running Lineage OS 14.1 and it is running GREAT!
I use my Nexus 5 for a year now. I tried several roms and kernels and purnexus nougat + elementalx is the perfect combination for me, since it offers the best battery life.
I never had any issues with the rom.
If you turn off gps, sync(especially gmail) and undervolt* the snapdragon 800 and lower the clock a bit( i use 1.7 ghz) you can get about 5 hours of sot!
The phone is still very fast if you dont use slow apps. Even underclocked...
* most nexus 5 work well if you set the lowest value to about 700 and leave the steps up as elementalx sets them
best wishes!
I have found in trying most of the current ROMs that if you want Sprint service you must stay with >6.0 versions. The SIM card read of data on SIM is spotty at best. Some one mentioned it is not "Sticky" will work some times and all the various patches installed at ROM first install don't work...in my case never for reboot after setting up ROM app's and using. My way around this trouble is to use a GSM mvno (FreedomPop) or Tmobile just not good coverage in my local area. I like most of the features of Ver 7.0 + roms
I'm currently running Lineage 14.1 CAF and Noncaf....I like the CAF Battery setting slider for different current/battery drain. The Noncaf can use any Kernel if you like that approach to increase battery Life. In the two N5's one has a new battery and the other old...almost a 3 to 1 difference in longevity so best choice is a aftermarket battery replacement too.
DARK ROM [OMS][Pixel features]
i'm running paranoid android and i find it cool, but however, it's the first ROM i flash on the nexus 5.
i love having the nougat notification system, plus the immersive mode, and battery life is better than stock.
sincerely i don't find useful on the spot control and navigation pie, but that's just something that depends on my usage i guess.
can't understand how to activate floating peek, nor if it's still active in this version
sadly i hoped in something snappier, it looks a little laggy sometimes, doesn't support xposed (causes bootloop) and camera doesn't include HDR+ (installing the google official camera and enabling hdr seems to change nothing, so basically is useless) but many users find paranoid camera fantastic.
i'm trying to understand if there is something faster than this without losing cool features (like notifications), maybe with something based on kitkat/lollipop tweaked?
if someone has suggestions, tell me! btw i'll keep you tuned. still loving nexus 5 and it must survive!

Is lineage a good choice for that? Do I just download it and flash it through twrp? Are there instructions on how to flash and use Lineage?
What rom is best for privacy?
Thanks.

IMO, yes, Lineage OS is a good choice for that. You have to install the Google apps separately, so if you want to be Google-free, you would just not install those. I've been impressed with how well my N5 runs with LOS. Better than with any previous stock version, really. I did keep the Marshmallow camera app, but that was just personal preference. LOS comes with a pretty full-featured camera app of its own.

aren't nightlies more instable than the final builds?

if anybody could give some feedback about those, it would be awesome

Theoretically, but I don't think there really are any final builds for LOS (for hammerhead). I kind of want the monthly security patches. I've just kept installing the weekly updates, because I haven't had any problems. There could very well be problems, but I haven't experienced them since installing in...March?...somewhere around then.
BTW, running crdroid right now and it's holy fast, even better than stock, you should definitely give it a try. Wanted to run the caf version to flash also the truesight, but it needed custom bootloader and radio, and I'm still too noob for this.
Right now evaluating flashing the ElementalX, that should work on aosp to get also the fastcharge
If you just flashed the rom, it's usually faster than a rom that you've used for months. The rom shouldnt have too much influence on the speed, the kernel and the cpu governor it uses have the biggest influence. Usually speed comes at the cost of battery life which can have dramatic results on this phone. On caf i could use the charger 2-3 times per day...
I suggest AOSP 7.1.2 + OpenGapps + ElementalX, it's much faster than official Marshmallow, with Magisk you can bypass SafetyNet check and use Android Pay.
Also you can replace the battery with 525666, it's 3020mAh
And you can replace the NAND to 64G
I've tried to enlarge RAM to 3G or 4G, but failed...
The replacement can be done easily only if you're in China, so...

What's the best rom right now for battery consumption ?

Hello everyone,
I'm still on my old OnePlus One and i'm currently having freeze and some issues with this old Sultan bacon rom from cyanogen (yeah, it's been a while tho).
So i'm searching for the best rom for this phone right now and i can't really decide so i told myself i should ask you folks !
My criteria are simple, i'm searching for a rom that is optimized for battery consumption and that is stable.
Also, i just saw a rom was created for Android Oreo, and i'm asking myself if it's really worth it to install a 8.+ rom or a 7.+ for the OPO.
I apologize if it's not in the right section,
Thanks in advance tho ! c:
Unofficial HalogenOS Nougat By Silver best nougat ROM for #Bacon...
Good Things:
-Best Camera [OOS v3 Camera Blobs]
-Op5 Camera Supported
-Super Smooth
-Color Engine
-Substratum
-Great Battery Backup
Missing:
-Data Indicator on Status Bar
-Custom LED Notification Color [You can't change the color]

I tried AOSiP, very stable but had some problem with battery life. Yesterday I flashed AOSPextended v4.5, first impressions are great stability and a better battery life, but I'll give you a better response after some more testing.
I think AOSPextended has no more support for Nougat (they are now releasing Oreo ROM) but I want to use Xposed...

Currently very busy with work, flashaholic activities are on hold for the moment. Will try out your rom later
Battery Optimized = Performance drop and Display Brightness Drop.
Best ROM overall is Lineage OS.
If you care about battery life Just Go to Settings-> Battery -> Current Profile -> Efficiency. You can also lower the Screen Brightens and you are done.
Don't bother with experimental Android 8 ROMs they are not ready yet for the average user.
Well thank you all for you advices, i'm looking at all the roms you recommended me
I'll check in details each specific characteristics !
and yeah frankzappatistas that's what i figured out by snooping all the current 8.0+ roms topic
Its not just about the ROM build, but how Google Play has a tendency to drain your battery with all the alarms & wake locks firing off. Jgcaap has a nice build that is smooth & with quite a few optimization on. Resurrection Remix ROM is still my goto build for its wakelock blocking (be careful with this though) used alongside Lightning Kernel & Naptime by Francisco Franco, you should get pretty decent battery life. DoTOS is very nippy in screen animation & runs apps quickly as well.
It is pretty friendly on battery life too .
Any of these three ROM are fantastic when coupled with a decent Kernel though. It just depends on your personal choice.

Best battery rom and kernel

I'm on liquid remix. Tried greenify, titanium freezing and couple of things but nothing seems to work. Battery drains with 5hour sot and around 10 hour standby. It's the same case with other couple of custom roms. Kindly help me I'm what's best rom and Kernel for battery. I want only battery on priority
I'm in stock, rooted. Franco kernel, battery mode. Dark theme everything on substratum and get around 7/8hs SOT.

Idle time?
Tried alot. For battery is say OOS.
I constantly get 7 to 9 hours screen on with my usage over 36 hours to 48 hours in-between charge.
I use this debloat script: https://forum.xda-developers.com/on...l-tomatot-debloater-basic-script-to-t3869427/
And I'm testing this kernel atm. Happy with it.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-6/development/kernel-renderzenith-op6-t-t3883994
I think I used all kernels on XDA and tested them for around 7 days, all are good I have to say. About same performance and battery. Features are user dependent so look for the one that you feel like will fit your needs.
Stock OOS is the best for battery performance. I think the only one that got close to rivaling it is treskmod. I could be wrong on the treskmod part but OOS for sure is the best for battery.
Kernel is largely preference. All kernels here I tested were amazing. Focusing purely on battery I would say Bluspark, Smurf(battery profile), and Render are the best. Franco is also there too but I haven't seen him update his kernel in a while now and there's a vocal few reporting camera issues with his kernel.

Stock OOS is the best for battery performance. I think the only one that got close to rivaling it is treskmod. I could be wrong on the treskmod part but OOS for sure is the best for battery.
Kernel is largely preference. All kernels here I tested were amazing. Focusing purely on battery I would say Bluspark, Smurf(battery profile), and Render are the best.

A noob question. How to choose Kernel profile. Because i know only flashing Kernel though twrp
In my opinion the best kernel is smurfkernel, great performance and battery life 8h SOT.

Check the OP of Smurf it explains it. Easiest way would be the spectrum app.
OOS with RenderZenith for me
OOS with Elemental kernel at around 6hours of SOT with around 36 hours without charge.
Although I think the Rom is more important for the good battery life.

WiFi issue is with custom roms, for OOS it's fine.
Hi everyone,
End of the story.
If you want very good battery life. Stay on stock. I'm very happy to share my battery screenshot.
No custom ROM no custom kernel giving better battery than stock oos. I tried even so called better battery friendly kernels and omni ROM (omni has been said better battery ROM than stock).

Majority of the thread said stock OOS. But I guess some like to see for themselves.
I have the same setup as you plus xXx. Getting great battery life not to mention the performance of it. Probably going to replace EX for daily driver duty. Burned through 50% of the battery with 4 hours SoT so far. Think I've found my winner; not going to switch to anything else anymore.
