Hi guys Again :cyclops:,
I'm just asking for good ROM with long battery life (Battery extender Kernel) , faster ROM , etc.
I've looked too long On YOUTube, GooGle , XDA-DEVELOPERS Forums , ...
But Finally I decided to make a New Thread for a LITTLE HELP:angel:
My requirements (approximately):
1st*Long Battery Life
2nd*Memory Booster
3rd*good Gaming-no lagging
4th*good Appearance
5th*not to be Like ICS
6th*No use of Launchers (Something really custom)
As I told you I don't want to be just like these parameters , that must be approximately :laugh:
Thanks for reading
Hmm. They're too many. I suggest you try them all and pick which would suit you. I would suggest Myth2, Xperiatized, Stocklite etc etc since you mentioned Battery Extender meaning it will be stock.
The best would be to get a ROM with long battery life and maybe combine it with super v6 charger for the sake of memory.
Gaming without lagg, not gonna comment on that.
And the last two requirments can be done seperately, "good appearance" is a subjective opinion.
I'm using apocalypse rom, but i cannot say that it gives the best performance of all of the recent roms out there since i havent tried the others.
Go to a bar and ask which drink is the best. You won't get your answer. Same applies to ROMs.
I'm closing this one.

What's the best rom and save my battery?

It depends on your usage, but for me it's VillainRom

If you need to ask the same question yet again stick with stock rom .
jje
This means that the stock ROM is the best for battery life? What about Exinos Extreme that brags being the best at this chapter?
What he means is, if you have to ask which Rom is best for battery, then you obviously can't be bothered to search the forum and read the many threads on this same subject. Therefore stick to Stock Rom and you will not have to worry about it.
Battery performance is subjective and each individual will have different results. Why don't you do what most of us have done and root, then try the different Roms to find the one that suits your needs.
... do what most of us have done and root, then try the different Roms to find the one that suits your needs.
Very good point. Sometimes is better to point out the obvious.
I established a goal for my self: make my SGS2 battery last for at least 48 hours, under moderate usage for this period (30-50 min phone calls, read emails, browse internet for about 60 minutes, gtalk connected, WifI connected most of the time and 2G in the rest).
Will keep trying and share the results.
Battery life not only depends upon rom but also upon the kernals so you hav to try the best possible combination for you.
Currently using CheckROM but thinking of switching to Androidmeda for the (reportedly) amazing battery life. I can't see any direct comparison between the two, so I was hoping I might be able to get some feedback from people who have used them.
I heard someone say that they weren't that impressed with Androidmeda, but didn't really explain why. CheckROM seems to be the most popular, and it definitely is smooth, but I can't get much battery life out of it, despite switching kernels.
Any advice welcome. Thanks.
I get superb battery life from CheckRom as do many others it's nothing to do with the ROM you need to establish what is draining your battery it's certainly not the ROM itself.

I don't think I'm getting a battery drain as such, I could probably get about 14 hours out of it, which isn't too bad I suppose. I'm seeing people report over 2 days with Androidmeda.
I didn't like checkrom and switched back to androidmeda.
Can't give any specific reasons though. I think it's the surgeon scripts which I like.

Both at the end of the days are good roms. Its about choice really and what you like as a user..For me i have to say Androidmeda. Saved myself money from buying an extended battery cause of the great rom/kernel combo. The min screen on time i get is 5hrs buddy and that is over the duration of say 26-40hrs. and not just that i have learned quite alot since i switched over. Plus the devs are great support there and if you need anyting they are always there to help...Regarding checkrom again i did try that and nothing but good words to say about that rom specially if you like the kitchen idea but for me smoothness and battery life is androidmeda...But again only you can decide by trying both..and not just a day or two you have to give it at least a week for each rom to decide which one you prefer
cant get the idea of surgeon untill now why it have to be with themes?
if i want to flash "Hyperdroid" then flash a surgeon then flash ICS theme by "Vertumus" will it revert all the mods that the surgeon did?
Hi guys! I am new here, and glad to be a part of this big community.
Recently i bought a new Samsung Galaxy S III. The phone was running stock ICS 4.0.4.
Because i am really stupid, and like to make all my gadgets "better", i installed Jelly Bean 4.1.1 Polonia, from Sammobile.
The problem is... THE BATTERY, IT'S HORRIBLE! 3-5% over night discharge, with 30% light, no Wi-Fi, no Sync, only H+.
In a little game, like Doodle Jump, Jetpack Joyride or Jumping Slime, 15 minutes of gameplay and 3-4% battery is gone.
I have the Clockworkmod recovery installed, and i did a full charge and wipe battery stats... the battery got better, but no like on ICS.
What should i do... i would like to install ICS back, but i see that it's kind of laggy, and doesn't got manny features.
I don't like to install a Custom ROM, like Ressurection Remix, AOKP and stuff like that...
Furthermore, on the curent Jelly Bean i was had installed Siyah Kernel and i undervolted my CPU with -50mV, and still no improvement.
What should i do? Back to ICS? The battery life was great in games/aplications...
Thx for any reply!
Cheers!
no, no, no, no, NO!! Best rom threads arent allowed and are not looked upon lightly! Roms are entirely based on personal preference....flash a few and see which ones offer the best battery life FOR YOU!! And its not unusual for games and mobile data to use battery. Its inevitable really dude....

No... the thing is, i want a RECOMMANDATION, for the best stock ROM. On this forum there are many Galaxy S III users... what is the best ROM for their devices?
For me, the best ROM, was ICS 4.0.4, and i hadn't got any major battery drain like this. But i want to hear some opinions on this subject.
And no more useless reflashing... i am afraid that my NAND will be corupt. I flashed my phone like 5 times in a week, trying to establish the best ROM.

install the app better battery stats, and charge your phone up then leave it to idle for a couple of hours then report back with screen shots of kernel wakelock, and partial wakelock
Apart from that Google now causes some extra drain due to using location services.check what you are syncing (I suggest getting rid of the whole Samsung account/backup set up and disabling Google back up
3-5% isn't really that bad, neither is 3-4 % in 15 minutes of gameplay, considering normal screen on drain is approx 10%/hour

You said it yourself "trying to establish the best rom" their is no best rom....what gives you huge performance in terms of battery might suck for someone else....every device is different. And if you flashed your device 5 times in a week then my nand must be screwed because ive tried every galaxy S3 rom. It takes more than you think to damage your nand dude

Ok... i will install ICS back.
The JB battery really sucks. Only 5 minute call and checking some emails and 7% gone.
I think the battery is exactly the same..i was getting 6hrs screen on time on 4.0.4 and im still getting 6 hrs on dlib and its much faster

InsertCoin is best.
It haves stock (stable) kernel, full debloat (~100 mb more ram), alot of optional user tweaks, and many behind the scenes mods for maximum smoothness and perfomance
If only people could understand that what's best for Person A, might not suit Person B at all. It's a matter of one's own preference and it's imperative to try roms out yourself.
sigh.... I'm just going to paste my response from one of the many other best rom threads
These best rom threads are getting out of hand...
What's the best rom for me might be the worst for you.. It's subjective.
It's like asking who's the hottest girl in the world, or which sports car is the nicest.. It all depends on the person being asked and if you ask in a forum you will be a different answer from everyone.
The only way to find out the best rom for YOU is to try them all until you find the one that's "best" for you and your needs..
Thread closed
at first: this is not a "whats the best rom" thread.
i have 2 very focused questions:
What are the idle times with those different roms?
Are there some Main feature differences?
Aktually im running cm11 m5 snapshot with smartassv2 Governor. its smooth but the battery life is kinda poor.
Im looking for a rom with long battery life. And i dont care about google now, talking to my phone(ok google) nor i need the special features from the standart samsung rom.
Would be realy helpfull if u can review to my questions. Greetings!
pls apologize my bad english.
1 each phone is different depending on what's installed and running.
2 read there threads or flash each ROM and find out that way. You forgot about aokp?

2. thx for informing abaout aokp!
1. im asking for someone who did a test with the same phone and all roms. i dont ask for different situations, i sked fpr idle time and features!
Probably there is somebody out there who testet it and can present his results

There are no definitive results, I have used both and I keep coming back to Omni due to the fact that on SlimKat music stutters like crazy when the screen is locked. Also, Omni updates are small enough to update often without having to download a complete update, to many users this a huge deal due to data limitations in certain countries. As for usage, idle time etc, like stated before, that depends entirely on what is installed on your device. Install a bunch of apps that need to constantly receive data updates and you will have battery drain and very little deep sleep. Where features are concerned, you kinda learn to live with limitations due to missing features on a specific rom. If you really want, you can most likely find an app that will bring a missing feature to a rom. I see a lot of people throwing their toys out the cot because one of the other does not have a specific feature implimented, yet the developers have done so with good reason, usually either performance or battery life.
With all said, there are many roms out there, Omni and SlimKat aren't the only players. It's difficult to compare roms nowadays because you are never quite sure if your kernel tweaking or custom kernel with it's hundreds of tweaks is the reason for a device not going into deep sleep either.
Give them all a try and decide for yourself, nandroid backups and apps like Titanium Backup makes it so easy.

Thx for your long, interessting and helping text!
im missing only 1 thing. if someone flashes all roms, doesnt install any apps. Only new rom and full wipe before, restart and tracks the time the phone has battery. Dont u think this is a possibility to compare the roms battery usage? i think there is no one who does this, but i probably will try this and put down a little table here. so people like me are able to see the rom with the best battery efficiency. so if they decide this rom has not enough performance, they can switch to "battery efficiency Number 2" and so on.
greetings

Sure you can do what you stated but bear in mind how will you compare the battery life across roms..
There should be some standardized test... Like looping video playback or some other method which does not change based on you usage habits..
Sent from my GT-I9300 using Tapatalk
Pa is another you're missing from you're list of developed roms. What you could do is test video playback, calls incoming/outgoing,one game of choice "high end battery draining game" and compere them all. As for the kernel tuning.. Read about what really happens and you will fine not a lot does happen with UV/uc .

You can compare but you have to use that phone for more days not like just one and you have to full charge and then discharge 2 or 3 times till the phone make the correct battery stats. So i think you can test but better with daily use or get an app that drains battey faster well i think this may work
Hello everyone!
I'm the long-time proud owner of a Galaxy S2 NFC (GT-I9100P): almost 3 years and counting....
After more than two years with stock roms, some months ago, I switched to NeatROM, to see if I could get better battery life (right now I'm on JellyBean: XWMS3 NeatROM v.6.4, kernel 3.0.101-Apolo_4.14_Light-gf40153f).
As of now, I manage to keep the phone on (with some ordinary texting, whatsapp texting, a few twits, 2-4 phonecalls & some internet research per day) for about 13-14 hours (most of the time, I manage to get home with 10% battery or less...I suspect this is also due to bad signal strenght where I work ).
Anyway, I read around the forums flashing a KitKat ROM might squeeze a little more battery juice, thanks to its "optimizations", yet I also read it might bring out battery draining issues...so I'm a bit at loss...
Would you recommend me to update my phone to KitKat, or would you suggest to stick to JellyBean?
I'm posting a poll. DO please also add your considerations to your vote.
Thank you in advance,

Sry in advance, I'm replying using the app and I found no way to vote here.
My experience I've made is generally the Samsung based roms like miui, fusion or neat rom are good at battery life. I think Samsung did a nice job there.
Custom roms which aren't based on stock rom didn't have the same good battery life for me.
Thinking about KitKat roms I've made the experience that the phone often had some wakelocks, I couldn't reproduce. I also read other user had the same problems as well.
So in summary i didn't get better battery life there either.
For me best battery life can be found at stock rom based roms.
Talking about battery life, I'd recommend you to try apolo kernel, as this kernel seems to improve it, especially by using undervolting.
Good luck finding a good rom. :thumbup:

My recomendation is try for yourself.
Battery drain is very dependant on the way the phone is used.
I have my supported S 2 running AOSP Neatrom and use three apps to help with battery drain: Greenify, Leandroid and Unbounce. The first requires Xposed for full funcionality and the third is a Xposed module.
I really do not like Touchwiz roms and prefer to have AOSP richier UI configuration. With the apps above you might be able to move to AOSP and still have a battery life that is good enough for you.
And remember, after a few years of use batteries loose performance. Just get a new one and you certainly will have more juice by the end of the day.
