My wife own a Xperia U device. I've been flashing it to ICS (eXperience v2 which was the best I guess), JB (a few, all lagging), back to ICS and now down to GB (GB-Rocks) to try and get the best battery life. I must say I'm not happy with the result. The most I can get is about 24 hours.
My wife's demands are minimal. She's using her phone for calls and whatsapp. Most of the day it's idle. All she want is it'll have the longest battery life as possible. She also hates it when I put a new ROM as she needs to get to used to a new interface/system (I've also unlocked the bootloader).
So... What would be the best ROM/Kernel/Governer combination to have the longest battery life?
Thanks in advance.
Bro, GB is the best for battery - its best optimized between performance and battery, all other versions are laggy and battery drains faster.

Thanks, I think I got to the same conclusion, but am still looking for the best GB rom there is. Or should I go back to the stock ROM?

What's the difference between v5 and v6? I understand it's the baseband, but it says nothing to me.
Also, can you confirm it's not laggy?

each rom has different features.some users said that v5 is more stable than v6. I personally use v6 and have no problems.
Don't have any lags at all so far.
It's not the baseband the difference between those versions, as the dev provided a link to flash in your phone is the st25a instead of st25i.

So you have to flash only the version you want. No need to flash the cwm file for st25a baseband.

I've flashed that one on my gf's Xperia U last weekend. She's complaining that there are really slow moments and the Phone and Messaging Apps open up really slow.
Would a custom Kernel solve this, or might it be the best option to revert back to GB (I'm thinking of going with GB-ROCKS v3?)

Really sorry about that mate. I don't face any problems at all personally. The battery lasts for 1,5 day. I am using xda app, fb, whatsapp, browser and all of them on data.
Which apps do you use? Maybe you are using different apps and that's why you have the drain.
Or maybe you're not actually giving enough time for the rom to settle and the battery cycle to sort itself out. You need at least a couple of full charges and use in between to know what the battery use is gonna be like

Have you changed the home.apk as suggested in the thread?
The U is my mum's phone and is currently on stock ics (debloated) .89 firmware. She gets a couple of days out of it but hates how laggy it is. So in a couple of weeks when I i see her again (we live 230 miles away) I'm putting on GB rocks for her.
Besides the way i see it, if you're phone lasts all day then that's all you need. Charge it when you're asleep as why not? You can't use it then anyway

I'm on stock kernel. Didn't flash a custom one. Did you try also greenify? It's a free app from playstore. Stops background apps, only those you choose. You will notice the difference!

Hello GUIse & Girls
As you can probably see in the subject bar (or title bar) in this thread, I was wondering what ROM's you guys are using. I think I've probably tested all the ROM's available for the SGSII (Since I'm a themer) and I can't come to the conclusion on which one is the best, they all have their strong points but some are better than others. I will eventually will put a Poll up when I can collate ALL the ROM's that are the main ones (No offence the ones I miss out).
I'll start,
I change ROM's almost daily (As I said, I'm a themer and need to test features) but at present I am using Revolution 2.6 with the Speedmod t27 Kernel, the battery isn't as good as expected, I've disabled fast dormancy and hardly use 3G Data or Wi-Fi and it seems just to drain like none of it's business. I'm even using the Black Android Theme I made for the SGSII as blacks work better and use 30% less power on the Super AMOLED plus.
So, which ROM are you using?

I'd probably go with Revolution ROM, he included a ROM Kitchen app in it so you can install whatever tweaks and themes you need.

here I leave a list of roms to have an idea all the roms that have come thanks to the developers .. and teams: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1439516
The best i've tested go to two categories:
Performance - Ace-Of-Spades V1 (I use this currently)
Battery - RAZRv3 (since it is CM7.1 based; to me it seems battery is even better than stock)
I have not seen bugs on either of those.
I myself cant use stock roms because they have all given my phone SOD... Official stock 2.3.5 gave me like 10 SOD per day (unless i turn off both wifi and bluetooth), custom stock based roms are way better but still SOD (with gingerreal v2 i had two SOD during 1 month). I've stoped trying stock based roms because of this...
But luckily CM7, CM9, AOSP, Lewa rom... none of them have this problem.

AOS does seen to have pretty good battery usage but none of the roms that i have tested lasted as long as RAZRv3. I left my phone in the office one weekend. When i left the phone had 32% battery.. I left on friday and came back on monday and the battery was 29% with wifi active (3g not active) and that 29% lasted for a whole day and when I got home after 8 hour workday i had 12% left and the battery stats showd that i had been on battery for 5days and 2 hours. Never ever have i gotten close to that on any of the roms i've tested.
I really dont know what makes RAZRv3 so good. I'd ask in the thread but i can't since i don't have 10 posts (can't post in developers). I think it has something to do with deep sleep mode, but can't be sure....

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!?

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.

At least with Vertumus' new theme its more or less similar looking

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!

Ferralab roms sounds good, but now I deffinettly will stick with x10S v9, give a shot for it, after SE stock rom its will feel blazing FAST (not so fast like ICS, but seems like best alternative for stock rom)

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.

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.
