Ok so i have two questions pertaining to PACrom.
For thew first one, is it just me or is the battery life on this rom not that great, i have had mine go from 100% to 76% in less than an hour and my screen on time was less than 15 mins, is there a way to correct this since even greenify or underclocking it doesnt even make a dent in it.
For question two, it might be a little noobish, but i came from sense and personally loved sense but for some reason every sense rom i flashed acted a little laggy and i love the smoothness of CM but i HATE the AOSP camera with a passion, is there any alternative camera apps that are almost or just as good as the sense camera and the panorama camera sense had?
Thank you in advance for helping me.
Is Google Services using a high amount of battery? That was my problem with the battery life in the rom. If so, delete the data for all the Google apps via settings>apps>all.
As for the camera, you can try Camera MX which has live effects like Sense but it runs slow on my phone. You should try out this awesome Sense rom
I am fairly new to android modding so I will provide information to the best of my ability.
Basically my phone crashes or freezes when using the main camera when recording videos for Snapchat or Vine.
The front camera seems to work ok.
Galaxy S2 i9100
SiyahKernel S2-v6.0beta5

Also on another note battery drain seems quite excessive compared to my previous stock rom.
Thanks
Few days back i was using linage rom on my note 3 n900. AOD was working flawless . Battery time wss super good.
AOD SCREEN was not continuous. It was like breathing on amd off in r second intervals.
It showed notifications too.
My question is. Can vmwe get such AOD working on S6 with efficiency of battery?
This app seems to be doing a fine job: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.doflamingo.alwaysondisplay.amoled
Battery consumption is less severe than other similar apps!

We talk about Always On Display, the original one.
The S7 APK is working on some ROMs with a kernel adjustement.
I think we'll be able to get a fine battery life, we just need to wait someone port the AOD kernel module to the stock kernel. The stock ROM (when finely optimized) is less battery eater than other custom ROMs)

With every **** like Microsoft Apps, useless Play apps, etc disabled
You get a faster phone
Which Pie ROM works without gapps without issues, has best battery life, enough customization options (especially clock on right, no need really that much, also moving cursor with volume button)? I need definitely good Bluetooth connection to Amazfit Bip for notifications and it should be stable ROM as daily driver with good battery life.
I don't care much about performance (if it will be 10-30% slower than fastest ROMs), I don't care about VoLTE/VoWifi, even NFC or fingerprint it is not really necessary, play zero games, what I need it is reliable Bluetooth notifications, apps not crashing (browser, calendar, email, Reddit) and it would be great if gcam or MIUI ported camera or whatever has best results worked without issues (but I don't need slowmo video, night sight, zoom and other gimmicks), what I need in camera it is regular photos with fastest focus to take not blurry photos of children.
Currently in 72hrs waiting period according xiaomi unlock tool.
edit: and yes I am aware of https://download.lineage.microg.org/polaris/ but would still prefer no gapps including no substitutes, not using them for years and not missing
LineageOS should be ok for you, with the AnX miui and gcam camera ports.

I tested it and I think it doesn't have better battery life, right now I'm on xiaomi eu with poco launcher

no freezing, random reboots etc? because I experienced reboots when entering into doze on Redmi note 3 pro with nitrogen pie without gapps and other users said it's common on pie without gapps, so not sure if it's device specific
how is the camera quality compared to MIUI? I care only about regular photos without AI, auto HDR would be nice, I need fast focus and shoot
I haven't tried without Gapps, but LOS is commonly used without them, so I expect it to be fine. The AnX camera is the same as the original MIUI cam. The only thing it cannot do is capture QR codes afaik. I actually use Gcam for photos because I think it gives even better results. Video on AnX is better.
thanks, will give them both try, just finishing setting up LOS16, everything went surprisingly smooth without any issue, bootloader unlock took only 72 hours

I'll tell me the battery life , because I had only 2.5 sot
Welcome,
My S7 started being lazy recently. Everything is much slower and the battery performance is tragic. Accu Battery says it's 64% so I think I can still use the actual battery for some time.
But... I'm currently on stock 8.1 but I was wondering if I would install some custom ROM like Lightroom or Lineage OS - would it be a good idea?
The most important would be for me to make my S7 fast and improve the battery performance. Also, the banking app & google pay should work (I will fix this with Magisk I guess).
Any ideas? Is this worth changing?
