Battery on Stock Marshmellow vs All Android Nougat ROMs - Moto G 2015 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I am using Stock Moto G Marshmellow and it only spend 15% battery while I am constantly using it on face book and youtube.
I have installed most of the Roms and now I had to switch back to stock ROM due to an issue which I assumed was due t6o custom ROMs . Now I have realised the issue is with proximity sensor not trhe ROMs so I want to switch back to a custom ROM but battery is my main concern. Durring last few months any Nougat base ROM I used Battery usage per hpour is between 20%-25% and this is with cpu on balanced for battery friendly. so my question is
Is there any Nougat base ROM for Moto G 2015 which spend only 15% battery per hour where comnstantly used on facebook/youtube?

Use Slim rom 7 with a custom kernel like Optimus or Squid

Before recommending SLIM, you might want to see what they have been up to lately... https://plus.google.com/u/0/+NicholasChumCDT/posts/fhMc9SzMACy

Moto may not do some things right, but they know how to optimize a rom and kernel... What you are experiencing is normal and the stock ROM/kernel combination will provide the best battery life of any custom ROM with packaged kernel you will find.
With a good quality ROM, a custom kernel, and lots of tweaking you might be able to approach stock battery life, or if you are willing to take some noticeable performance hits you might be able to slightly improve on stock battery life.
So to answer your question, no there are not.

[Q] Best rom + Kernel for battery life??

Hey, Just wondering what would you guys say is the best rom for + kernel for battery life that also isn't stupidly slow.. Oh and by battery life i don't mean like upkeep time i mean like basing it on screen on time like what roms can get 4+hours screen on time?
Cheers
stock rom 4.04
Oh and what kernel is better for Rascream rom Trinity or Matrix cause i don't really know much about rascream as i just started using it.
I'm able to squeeze over four hours of screen on time from most ROMs providing I don't reboot and minimise my modem usage. I'm currently using Pete Alfonso's Gingerbread kernel and Blandriid 2.3.7.
But I keep trying alternatives...
Yeah Atm i'm using latest Rascream with TEUV kernel and not sure atm but battery seems okay?
The biggest battery eater is the screen so try brainmaster's black cm9. It's about the only thing you can do apart from obviously keeping your screen brightness at minimum is put your phone in airplane mode when feasible. Nothing else will make much difference.
For GB i have to say, Oxygen 2.3.2 with Matr1x 11.0
As for ICS, i've yet to come across one, I do, however have fond memories of aosp+
To supplement bedalus' post: to base battery life on kernel+rom combination alone does not tell much of a story. I got the most out of my battery when I - used a pure black and static wallpaper, turned off auto brightness and manually tuned down to 10%-ish, kept apps and processes at a minimum (reduced app drawer to a single page, mostly stock). To reiterate, kernel+rom alone give few tangible differences when comparing battery life, from personal experience.
I use Matrix Kernel v19 and CyanogenMod v7. 24 hrs with light use, 12 hrs with heavy use.
used to use milestone 4 with air kernel.
use the latest version of both rom and kernel and set 200-1000.
you will see the difference and if you want to save more battery after following as above, then reply me.
I haven't really noticed a difference between ROMs. As stated a few posts above, the kernel and ROM themselves will only give a few minor boosts. Black vs white screens makes a world of difference. I use the inverted browser a lot and a majority of my apps tend to have dark themes which I personally prefer. Daily use, 3 or so hours of screen on time with the phone off the charger for 12-14 hours. It all varies on how I use my phone though on that particular day.

Best & most stable custom rom?

Hi!
Currently with Moto E 2015 model. Really happy with it with custom rom (really good battery life: 2-3 days with my normal use and phone is rock stable).
I thinking of getting Moto G 3rd mainly because the camera (I need good quality photos in my work and don't want to spend 300-500 euros for phone).
Are there really good quality roms for this phone? I tried to look but everyone seemed to have some issues. Mainly I need to have it stable, good battery life and camera should be working fast. I don't like official roms, I want to root the phone, have tasker with automation etc.
Really appreciate any help and replies!
I suggest holding off for now as the camera quality is worse than stock in all custom roms (the MM ones, at least) right now.
Battery life can be made better than stock by tweaking the kernel.
All major roms are stable though. The CM based roms have only one noticeable bug (it shows 'Invalid Number' when the call is disconnected from the other side)
For me the most stable ROM with the best battery life is AOSP-CAF, but it doesn't have nearly as much customization as other ROMs.
I don't think there is a "best" Marshmallow custom ROM yet, and I don't think there will be until CM13 for osprey is in the official nightly stages.

Best nougat rom for battery and stability

Share ur thoughts guys
I have tried a few Nougat ROM's ...AEX, AICP, Cosmic, DU to name a few...almost all of them have very similar battery behavior...idle drain seems to be more compared to MM ROM's....so, if battery life is your main priority...i guess you need to go back to MM or even LP...but, of course, battery behavior might vary for each person depending on the usage..
This is a duplicate question.
Its preference, I use aosp-caf now because I don't need any feature bloated ROM. Test stuff yourself every phone behaves different
Best ROM is AOSP-CAF https://forum.xda-developers.com/2015-moto-g/development/osprey-aosp-caf-7-1-1-t3576936 I have used most of Nougat ROMS and best one I FOUND CLOSER to stock Marshmellow in terms of battery life is thsi ROM. I am using thsi with nano Gapps an I have not use root an dusing it unrooted. Make suer adaptive brighness , live display and ambient display is off fro better battery .
In this ROM thread theer are extra suggestion given in Q & A post by using a Kernel Editor to save extra bettery life . I have not used that part so this may also help you more for better battery efficiency

Best kernel for battery?

Just wondering what kernels are showing best battery?
ElementalX
Best kernel and ROM plzz tell guys as not happy with stock OOS 5.1.8
Franco Kernel works best for me.
Definetly franco kernel in terms of battery life. But everyone have to decide by themselves which kernel is best.
For every different user, every kernel will yield different results.
All i can say atm is that every kernel out there is amazing, stock is better for some users but has less options.
I recommend you to try it out few kernels out there and see what's better for you, as i said earlier its different for every user...
Usage patterns have a far larger impact on battery life than kernels do. A kernel that gives good battery life to someone who is gaming all day and sees 5+ hours of SOT isn't necessarily going to be be best for someone one doing mainly email and messaging with the phone in deep sleep 90% of the time. From what I've seen here, usage patterns are all over the map, so someone else's recommendation isn't likely to be of much use to you.
Just try them all and see what works best.
Smurf kernel with Helix_Schedutil as governor

Android P battery life on custom ROMs

As the title say, which ROM has better battery life among android P custom roms? im asking this because I did install stock android p and I faced huge battery draining on stock + heat. I don't wanna disable adaptive brightness for that either. So im wondering whether the battery life is batter on customs roms. If so please do mention the rom you have
i cant stand adaptive brightness not only does it kill battery, but it scales at the worst times and not in the correct intervals. i believe my preferences and environments change to much for the "machine learning" to do its magic.
ANYWAYS. I believe carbon rom with flash kernel gave me the best battery. i used the unified script with it, and enabled Smart pixels (on with battery saver, 75% move every 10 min) . With that setup i was able to get about 6hr SOT moderate to heavy usage.
Aside from that, any lineage based rom is going to be good on battery. A few people here swear by stock rom with a community provided kernel. Give elementalX a try on stock rom and see if it helps.

So adaptive brightness kills the battery?hmm. For me it is good . Donno about battery because i haven' used my phone disabling it. Anyway carbon rom + flash kernel give you android oreo battery? that's all i wanted.
