I need a good kernel and ROM to have the battery last as long as possible
Now I have Siyah kernel and CM10 ROM.
Is it a good combination?
Or should I change ROM or kernel to Dorimanx for example?
Use latest cm10 with stock cm kernel......I must say awesome combination for better battery life

Siyah is Good, latest version, Dorimanx is also very good too. the option is yours to decide which one to use.
If you don't like one, just flash another one. It takes less than 5mins to flash a kernel

You're going to have to try for yourself. I personally am using siyah, but you might have better luck with another one. Don't forget, you can use different settings in ex tweaks to get even better battery life

With every kernel and android, just think about how you use the phone for saving battery. Like turn off wifi/data/sync whatever you are not using, to gain a little more battery. There is a lot of tweaks with every kernel and you will find them, searching the forums for the specific kernel.
GL tweaking
Hi! there a lot of people who suggested that kind of combo, but we can never really tell if it's real until we try it ourselves.
Try some tweaks maybe you'll someday find the right "combo" that suits you. The thing here is that everyone has a different "type of usage".. you may have read a post "omg! I get the best battery life for this xxxx kernel/rom/whatever tweaks"... who knows? he/she could've just said that cause his/her phone had been on standby mode all along xD

Been thinking about this and cant decide, well wonder if anyone knows.
Do people think that the Samsung ROMS de-bloated and stripped to minimum with a decent Kernel, have better battery life than say a AOSP ROM, with a custom Kernel?
Just a thought!?

Where are your results?
The maximum I ever achieved on a Samsung ROM was just under 7 hours screen time with stock battery. Max I've ever got on AOSP is 5 hours screen time. But I've just flashed a new kernel so I have yet to see if that makes a noticeable difference.

See that was my thought. I remember back in the GB days i always seemed to get more battery out of the Samsung lite ROMs than i did with CM7 etc.
I have a 2000Mah Battery and I'm only really seeing 1 day 14 hours on AOSP with 5 hours screen time.
On GB, i would have around 2 days, maybe a little more with the same screen time.

Your results look interesting. Im tempted to flash a Stock ROM (Wanam Lite) most probably and try that with NEAK Kernel, or Abyss (Never tried Abyss)
Battery 69% with 13h of use. Resurrection v1.5 with stock kernel. Awesome!!

Going to try Wanamlite.
Will strip more crap out of it as 235mb is still alot!
Will most probably add NEAK Kernel with Lulzctive tweaks and see what happens!
I still think stock ROM is better for battery life, for some reason!
At least with Vertumus' new theme its more or less similar looking

You can go ahead sir.
I'm interested in how well you can perform with new neak kernel.

I do believe its true though.
I'd love to see some 'proper' results though. Wonder why Stock Roms perform better battery wise than AOSP.

With N.E.A.K. I was having some SoD. I dont know why... so i decided to use custom kernel of Resurection remix v1.5. With Thoravukk 2.30 and siyah 3.0rc6 the battery life was weak.
Getting excellent battery life with VK ROM and speedmod kernel. Amazing combination.

I was on stock, unrooted. Rarely on wifi since I have a mobile 3g plan. Use email and twitter often. Some surfing (rarely), play bit of games etc. I get 40+ hours out of it.
I just rooted, still stock (for now). Removed all the telco crap and am gonna freeze the useless stuff. Perhaps it will be better.
Only thing is i hate the Stock look, and even with vertumus theme its still not the same!
I hear good things about the LP9 Base.
Not sure whether to try Wanam's LP9 Or Dynamic Slim!

I love SpeedMod kernel. I've been using it with Foxhound ROMs (GB and now ICS) for a while. It just gives great battery life, and I've had no issues with it at all.
i get good batt life an iam on stock 2.3.5 gb but i was neva satisfied wiv custum roms life..but every phone is diff an depends on how u use it,may b custum or stock.....cheeerz
Combination of HYDR0G3NICS + Siyah 3.1rc6 gives me about 6-7 screen on time. Which is quite impressive. GPU + CPU UV. Tweaks. etc.
Hey
This last weekend I rooted and installed different roms to try. Most of them still have poor wifi performance, just like stock.
Is there a way to make wifi better? Maybe flashing a new kernel, a new modem or something?
Thanks.
Modems/Radios are meant for Service network provider thingies, like your signal. Whereas, Kernels are for more "internal" things, they affect battery life and WIFI.
so i suggest you flash a custom kernel that best suits you
I hope this helps!
Thanks!
I was thinking of trying siyah kernel. Is it the best one for Wi-Fi performance or is there another one better?

If you're on ICS, Siyah and Franco both worked well for me, if you're on JB, Siyah alpha/beta builds are the only option until the i9300 sources are released.

I flashed siyah 1.5.3 with CM10 teamasek rom but wifi still doesnt work. I dont options for wifi inside Stweaks.
I will keep trying with other roms.
What I want is the best combo for the best wifi performance. Best combo rom - kernel - whatever. I really need to improve my wifi performance at home.

Siyah 4.1.5. and Neatrom lite works for me.
Speedmod latest GB kernel (I think it's k2-21) + checkrom v6. It's a GB though

Try this one, you'll get the best battery life anyone on here has ever had. I promise.
I use dorimanx kernel 7.11 + slimbean 2.8
In my case the battery lasts longer and it's stable and heavily customizable :good:

Seems all of them are the best. Gonna flash them all together.
The absolute best battery you can get is with Kernels that have MMC_CAP_ERASE enabled.Trust me. It might take you a while to find one but when you do, woah. Be sure to do a few data wipes after you've flashed the said kernel to get the most optimal battery life. I promise you it works, I did that and haven't needed to charge my phone for over a month now.

nice finding mate..
I would love to encourage Samsung to install this lovely kernel to all it's android line-up so we all can get benefit of life time battery life
Hi Guys,
I'm a new member so I cannot post in the Development Thread of the Super Nexus 2.0 ROM for the Galaxy S2 GT - I9100.
Galaxy S2's battery life is horrible as experienced by most people and I am no exception. So I was looking for a Good ROM with best battery life.
My search ended with Super Nexus 2.0 ROM. Its a very good and stable ROM. But its been almost a month since i installed the ROM but the battery life is almost the same as the Stock ROM. Tried some battery saver apps, but not satisfied. I would not like to change the ROM as its brilliant expect the battery life. So thinking of changing the kernel (Never done that before), so what do you guys think which Kernel is the best for Super Nexus 2.0 ROM and Battery Life.
Thanks.

that sound nice......phils kernel has't activated that right ?
going to follow this batterylife-optimizing guide and wondering, why he dont metion that "MMC_CAP_ERASE enabled"-thing

also I heared it could be dangereous to enable that....that confuses me a little bit
I use a CM rom and recently switched to dorimanx kernel.
Since then I have seen that mobile standby is using a lot of battery something that had not been happening using CM stock kernel.
Any advice?

Its normal to have battery issues for a day or two after flashing a different kernel. Give it another day and see what happens. :good:
P.S. Next time you flash a kernel, use a kernel cleaning script before flashing. And also mention which versions of CM and Dorimanx you have now. That will help us help u better.
Yeah it happens with me as well.With 8.38,battery life was very good but with 8.39,it drains fast in standby.I'm using it for 4 days but battery life is same.

Let's not turn this into a 'best kernel' type thread.

done alot of reading have my phone all setup now i just want to make sure ive got the best and fastest kernal for gaming really, im currently using appolo that came with neat rom as it has the app to overclock, before that i had siyah, cant decide wich one faster for gaming though
was hoping someone would have more experience
thx
ok so i was looking at the Kernel_Dorimanx-V8.43-[12-21]-[24-10]-JB-SGII-PWR-CORE but im a bit confused if its the rite one for my rom, im using neat rom and jb 4.1.2, is that the rite one or not ?
I using NeatROM Full version i've already try DORIMANX kernel and it dont work for NEATROM so i suggest you to use apollo kernel the one that have in the ROM..:good:

ok cheers, from what i read apolo is one of the best anyways, i found a thread where he benchmarked kernals but its a bit dated now wich is a shame, it did beat dormi at the time
ok then...but for me apollo kernel is best in NeatROm...
Well only going by benchmarks. With alpolo 7.1 and neatrom I get 17158, tuntutu. I might try dori though may as well. I'll let you know how I get on. I'm new at this smart phone game. Only just realised now why people always say " posted with my gs2 on xda or something like that. Always thought it was annoying as hell coz I allwayz read it pool. But its there automaticly.
