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
My wife uses a rooted Bolt running Virus' Eternity ROM with Sense 3.5. I'm open to trying new ROMs and other less drastic measures as well. I've thought about switching to an AOSP ROM that might free up more memory. I personally use Liquid Smooth and have been trying tweaks to see if my battery life improves before trying to change hers. She uses the FM Radio a lot at work which is the primary culprit of her battery consumption. It's generally fully dead after 6 hours. What options do I have that might increase that life a little longer?
You may wanna take a look at THIS THREAD
Thank you much. I'm not sure how I've missed that thread as I've spent a good bit of time on those forums as well looking at different tweaks.
I realize this device has only been out for a very short time, but are there currently any stable/semi stable kernels that improve battery life? I've looked through a few kernel threads, but many seem to be unstable (which is to be expected) and optimized for overclocking. Are there any kernel developers focusing primarily on battery life?

Stock kernel is fantastic. If you're having issues, we need a BetterBatteryStats log from you.

BBS is not compatible with 4.4 yet. Sven is working on it.
On topic: stock kernel is good. I'm getting excellent battery life, 4+ hours screen on time is no exception. It's a common misconception a custom kernel is a magical battery life extender.

Both faux and franco kernels seems to be maturing fairly well. I can't personally vouch for franco, but I've been stable on every iteration (betas and stable releases) of faux's kernel, with the exception of some aggressive undervolting, which is not a really reflection on the kernel. Battery life has improved, particularly for sleep mode. Can't say the screen on time has improved dramatically, if at all, under these kernels.
FWIW, I have been fortunate enough to have a phone with adequate sound output, so I have not played at all the the sound mods available through faux, only the CPU/GPU/memory settings.

Franco kernel on the N4 gave me 1.5 to 2.5 hrs. extra screenontime compared to stock Thats a fact and no placebo.

I tried all popular kernels on my GNEX. And by trying I don't mean flashing a new one every other day, used them for a couple of weeks at least. None of them produced any noticeable increase in battery life. That's a fact as well. I only used them for their options.
I'm curious what makes people think what the mechanism is behind hours of extra screen on time with a custom kernel (where custom is 95% or more original AOSP code).

Read some Franco N4 pages and you`ll see my statement confirmed. The Gnex (which i only owned for a very brief period) is not the N4.

I've read dozens of people claiming Franco, GlaDOS, Faux, Trinity, etc did wonders for their GNEX battery life. They never did for me, despite I used their recommendations and setup. I've yet to stumble upon actual proof (and I don't mean screen on time screenshots accompanied by opinions of users) a custom kernel actually uses less current than the stock one. If you have some, I'm very curious to read it.

There is a beta version posted on XDA that works with 4.4 http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1179809
BBS beta has been available in the forum for weeks. It's almost always on the first page, somehow people keep overlooking it.
As far as kernel battery life goes, I think it can matter in certain cases. For instance, I came from the S3, and I don't know about other phones, but the battery life on the CM 3.4 kernel was absolutely terrible (3.0 was fine). Custom kernel was needed not only to tame the battery drain, but to improve stability (fix hotbooting, etc.). Support for that device has been sub par for a long time on the AOSP front. If it weren't for KT747 and leanKernel, CM wouldn't have been usable at all (3.4+). Though, there is still a very valid argument that it wasn't usable anyhow. So custom kernels can make a difference in some cases.
Sleep is an issue with the stock kernel? I get 0.2%-0.4% drain per hour while idling. Zero issues here. If you want proof, I'd be happy to attach a BBS log for you guys to inspect. I don't disable sync or GPS. Never have and never will. You need to be in control of the apps on your phone.
Perhaps I should have clarified: my battery life is actually very good. I don't have any major complaints, and my idle drain is insanely low (the 0.2% - 0.4% figure claimed by Aerowinder isn't too far off). I'm coming from a Note 2 though, so although the battery life is good, I'm always looking for something to make it a bit better . I've been watching Franco and Faux kernels, but they seem hit or miss based on what I'm reading and the personal experience of my friends. I may wait a while longer for a stable release.
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.
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.
