I will now be traveling and need a rom that will give me the longest battery life with working GPS. Yes I know Samsung's GPS is not the best, but still better than me asking directions
I thought I would ask instead of reading every post in each ROM to see what is and is not working. Just need your input so I can load today and be on my way!!!
I really like the Simply Honey 3.6 that I am running now, but I need GPS.
Thank you !!!
I flashed Project V over the weekend and have been impressed (was on CM7 and was getting really bad battery life, like I dropped 30% overnight with phone display off all night and everything set to manual for refreshes).
My GPS has been pretty flaky since the beginning and with Project V I've been locking in about 25 seconds maximum. Battery life seems decent. I used my phone for some light browsing, checking twitter & about 25 photos yesterday while helping with a concert and was on track to get ~30 hours from a full charge with that type of usage.
simply galaxy has decent battery, mine's on 1 day 19 hour since unplugged, only low usage though, like 60 texts or something and like 10 min of angry birds, doodle jump and abit of internet but most of the time its been standby, still 19% left
from what iv used of gps it seemed to worked well but i never really used it
Hi all,
Since I started using Lite'ning ROM v2.1 I noticed that my battery was draining very fast.
I went to my battery use and I saw that "Android system"was using 44% of my battery. Wake time is almost 6 hours...
Is this a known bug or is there a solution to this?
Battery drain start with the Better Battery Stats app and thread .

If the rom you are using is not yet a fully stable rom then it could have battery drain problems, although battery drain is usally how you use your phone. Look what apps are running when you notice your battery running down fast, as it could be one of those.
When im at work i actually only use whatsapp, and sometimes facebook while im on break. But my WiFi is off all the time then, only whatsapp and battery monitor were active. With 2.3.4 this wasn't a problem and my battery would be 60% when i came home...
Either google wakelocks and how to pin-point them, or wipe and install NO apps afterwards, run it for a day and if the same problem go to another rom till it's more stable .
What works fine in 2.3.4 has no garuntee's that it will work an experimental ICS build of any sort.
i have similar problem. my galaxy is on wanamlite 9.6, which base on LP7. after 5 hours of not intensive using, i have 65% battery left, android OS use 68% of this battery, most of time my wi-fi is off. when is on, drain battery very fast, over night even up to 20%. when i was on ginger bread it took around 6% - 8% with data and wi-fi on.

Do you have many widgets?
Especially Beautiful Widgets and Fancy Widget (moreover if you activate the meteo forecast) will constantly drain your batter in search for your position. Wifi uses less juice than 3G connections.
Happened to me back at GB 2.3.4. Battery went down to 60% in 3 hours (at the office I'm on G...so even worse cuz the battery compensates for the lack of coverage). After I removed Fancy Widgets from the screen everything went back to normal.
Don't have any widgets as far as I know, only the clock and twitter...
Today battery is know at 26% after 11 hours on battery. Process stil at 39% battery use.
I searched the web and found that there are a lot of users having this problem, especially with the Google Nexus.

Hi,
is there any possibility to check battery health?
Since flashing JB 4.2.1 weeks ago battery life decreased and is getting even worse. No wakelocks, bbs is looking fine. Tried mcm's cm10.1, official cm.10.1 and Slim Bean RC2 with stock kernel, Siyah 5 and Dorimanx. With light use and less than 2 hours screen on time battery lasts one day. No big difference if reception is good or bad. Media scanner is fine too. The phone is more than one year old.

Plenty of topics on battery, use search.
All those topics are about people who are not able to setup their phones properly, but not about the physical battery
Almost every battey stats app you can download from the market can tell you battery health (very inaccurately).
If you're getting bad battery life though, the chance of it being an "unhealthy" battery are very low. Infact, on every ROM/Kernel you've listed I've had poor battery, I only get a good run on stock - there is way more to battery life than just wakelocks.
I'm running a cm10.1 based Rom and the battery seems to drain really fast.
At the minute I'm shown a drain of 259mA.
Is this normal or high?
Edit: just checked again and its now at 539mA.

I had the same battery problems with WFTN also but i let the battery drain and recharge overnight. After a few days, almost a week, i have had few or no issues with battery life anymore. Just give it a few days and let it do its thing.
Yeah I've noticed it has calmed down in the last few days.

Looking for stable rom, best battery life, good for gaming, good sound qualty.
I tried some of the roms below and there cons:
TW revolution 5.3
-battery last longer but if being charge while phone is turned off it will take 7 to 8 hrs to charge. Tried it twice i switched the phone off and charged it. It will take forever to charge. Will notice when charging its not getting hot unlike before with stock its hot when being charge
-sounds are too low, when playing games sounds are very low
-game will crush. In the middle of the game it will just close the app. Tried asphalt and evil defenders same issue
-lte 4g signal is very weak. Not sure if its in my country philippines but with stock i get 3 to 4 bars lte signal. If its only 3g and 2 g it can reach up to 3 to 4 bars.
Maverick s6 v4
-fast and has good sounds but drains battery faster. Im not a heavy user. Battery will drain after being removed from charger when being used. In idle for half a day the battery life is already half
-camera option has grey or unselectable option even hdr is off and selective focus is off
-in short my battery will only last half a day without being charge. .
I only use the phone for playing games 10 to 30 mins. Send messages in hangouts,calls,taking pictures. . Please advise what are your suggested rom that has a good battery life, good performance and a stanbl rom. .
Thank you.
All of them
Whats all of them?
Anyone knows any rom?
Darthrom v2.4 based on s6 edge. is cool and stable running on sm-g900f
Best touchwiz rom is PhoeniX rom. I've tested 8 touchwiz and aosp roms over the last 2 weeks and keep going back to phoenix rom on my g900f. Stable with plenty of features. Also has s6 installations through aroma installer
Hi everyone , have a question ? The Phoenix rom is compatible with the s4 i9506 witch has a snapdragon 800 cpu ?
