samsung vs aosp roms (battery) / show ur WIFI drain results! - Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

hello,
iam switching between samsung rom and aosp roms lately and the battery life keeps me wondering.
using a custom kernel and slimbean (ie.) the battery life rly improved compared to a few months now, but WIFI takes still more battery compared to samsung roms.
is that normal? any advises for that? ive exactly the same apps and 0 wakelocks cause of other apps (everything tweaked rly).
but still WIFI takes 1,5%/h on an aosp rom.
any experiences on that?
what are ur results?

I'm on CM 10.1 and the wifi consumes more battery for me either. but I'm not much bothered about it 'cause i charge the battery whenever needed.
-------------------------------------
please let me know if i'm wrong and CLICK thanks if i help

[Q] Battery life STOCK vs CM10.1

Hi, just wanted to know if i have the same application, the same usage with CM 10.1 and Stock lastest Sammy rom, which would give me more battery life ? :angel:
How much aproximatively would it be different if so ?
Samsung would be better.....10-20%
I keep reading of people using the phone while browsing for +4h of screen or surfing the web for 2h on 4G and still having 70% left of battery life.
This is all stock ROMs. From my usage this would be impossible, I'm using cm10.1 and on 3g I could probably go to 2h screen on but that's it.
I'm starting to think that maybe aosp roms don't even come close to stock ROMs (which I never tried though).
Some experiences between roms and battery life?
Yeah I agree that stock seems better than aosp based. Even using similar kernels (perseus on stock v devil on aosp)

super battery drainage

Hi xda forum users...
I recently got cyanogenmod9 for my phone and the battery life is terrible.
Samsung galaxy gio
Moderate texting
Wifi on but turns off during sleep
No calls
No games
I really like cm9 but I also like battery life being longer

Ok I dont use ur phone so i am not sure if what i say might be accurate. From what i can see, ur phone was only supported my Samsung till android 2.3. Which probably means that your phone doesnt have a proper kernel for android 4.0.4 on which cm9 is based on. So probably the kernel being used isnt fully stable, hence ur battery life is terrible, I would suggest u stick to a gingerbread (android 2.3) ROM with a stable kernel to enjoy good battery life. It could also be that ur battery might actually be spoilt. Is there any slight bloating on ur battery?

The kernel which was compiled for the your phone might not be fully stable yet causing the battery drain. If there is a new version of that rom try updating to that and see if that fixes the problem.

You will have to play with a combination of Devil Kernel settings to get the battery life you want. But your still not going to get stock battery life as this is so experimental everyone is still playing with settings to get max out of it. You can get 18 hours out of the latest, but not with heavy use.
I m getting very good battery life on the latest nightlies..... Idle drain is lowest I have seen on any ROM I have used. I m on stock cm kernel

Me too. Getting the best battery performance i have ever seen. Was in disbelief. Purposely put on wifi to help it run down faster. ha!
I was getting an extra 5 hours easy with the stock kernel. Tophaholic is right, the idle drain is next to nothing. Beans is still better than stock, but not quite as good as cm10.2 in terms of battery life.
I am running the latest nightly for 10.2, but I am getting terrible battery life. Any ideas how to force the CPU to idle?
!0.2 has the best battery life of any AOSP rom ive tried, mainly because of android 4.3. Cant wait till we get a sammy build!

Honestly, I've also used the SlimBean. Consumes a bit 'too much for my taste, the only ROM that does not have a battery drain is the Cyanogen 9

[Q] Battery life on AOSP vs Stock based and charging time

Hi,
I keep on trying various ROMs available. I have noticed that on the same usage pattern 20 hours after a charge stock ROM or stock based ROMS give me around 2 hours to 2.15 hours of screen on time on 3G/2G but if I use AOSP based ROM Omega or earlier the CM it gives me hardly 1.15 hours of screen on time and it dies! Does anybody experience it? Any ways to improve battery life on OMEGA ROM to match it with Sammy ROMS?
I use minimal apps including whatsapp, location on, gmail on push sync,twitter, a little of music max 1 ~1.5 hrs. Also have installed same Kernel Agni with same profiles extreme battery saving or normal-optimized! But still I find so much of difference!
Another thing I have noticed I use 700 mAh charger to charge my phone, it takes around 3 hours on Sammy ROMs but it charges like in 2 or 2.15 hrs on Omega/AOSP based ROMs.
Can anyone help me to understand if you face similar issues? any solutions? any way we can improve battery life on Omega? Please don't tell to turn off location that has hardly helped me!
P.S. Omega ROM version 4.4.2 everywhere! and Sammy ROM 4.3 everywhere!

Hey thanks for reply! I don't want to actually stay on lower frequencies! 1.4GHz max is ok! I wanted to know have you experienced such things with Sammy vs AOKP/AOSP/CM ROMS ? Already s3 is laggiest devices I have >.>
