What is the best CM14/.1 RON, Kernel and settings for Battery life? - Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Questions & Answers

I'm a bit lost at the moment, I'm running CrDrroid CM14.1 and love the smoothness but battery doesn't seem that great and neither does Snapchat which I use all the time. Can someone suggest me anything better?

Which is best rom ?

Hello all, I am creating this thread for choosing the best rom.
just name rom which has best battery life, performance and stable.
i have tried eui 26s by crisbalgreece, it is stock customised with many good features, good battery (<6 hrs SOT for me).
RR nougat, it has many great features and good performance too but battery drains very fast
please tell me about mokee (SOT, VOLTE, etc), AOKP, SLIM,etc

Heyyo, Battery life on stock? It's because of the super aggressive memory management. It kills apps like crazy. You could easily use Kernel Adiutor on a Nougat ROM to set up the memory clearing to do the same and get better battery life albeit notifications for said app will potentially take a hit. For me? Outlook email app never gave me notifications unless I opened the app.
Hi,
I didn't find any links available for 26s by crisbalgreece.
do you have ones ?
Best Nougat rom is imho is Slim , go try it...
I tried some custom roms and they was buggy. Then I installed stock Indian rom and it works good for me.

best custom rom with good battery and camera

I know the battery is very dependant on the user, but generally there are better and worse roms, so my focus is good battery life and good camera, I'd like to hear some advices please, I do not have much time to test each rom, so thats why Im trying to ask here a bit. Thanks.

All the roms are actually same when it comes to battery life and management. However some roms like candy, btlg and los are quite better since they have less background services. And for camera, 90% of the roms should be same because they use same blobs. I haven't found any exceptions to this. But you can install gcam to maximise your image quality

You should do compare and contrast on all available roms, that is stable enough to be used as daily driver. We all don't have the same usage in daily lives, we have different apps, which is depends on the user, different battery/performance mods, kernels, power management, etc. Just try LOS, Pixel Experience, etc. and record your power usage and compare it to all and you can determine yourself which one of them is good for you.
Btw. I'm using stock MIUI cuz I don't have problems installing custom kernel, battery mods, and other tweaks.
ROM has little to do in battery life (I agree, a few ROM specific features consume more battery like AOD). It's more Kernel related.
To my experience, stock miui ROM is always the best in terms of smoothness, fluidity and stability. If you feel the battery life is not that good, just grab a custom kernel and flash it through TWRP. You can also debloat useless System apps in order to have better RAM management.
I haven't tested everything, but stock kernel and stock ROM works the best for me. Most stable, best performance, smoothest, best battery(I get 10HRs of SOT). You should re-calibrate battery if you have been flashing many different ROMS.
Thanks guys i am on stock stable miui with sphinx kernel i am happy with it but i want to to try stock aosp that why i ask
For custom rom, you can try crdroid. For me so far thisbrom with default kernel has great battery backup. Manage to get 8h ++ sot starting from 90% battery. I will test more with next battery cycle. Normal usage social media, youtube and so far not try with pubg yet

Need help choosing a custom kernel

So I just unlocked the bootloader of my one-week-old Poco F1, flashed LineageOS 16, and everything has been smooth sailing so far. Now, I want to flash a custom kernel. What can you recommend for a good balance of battery life and performance? I'm not really keen on tweaking parameters so I want a flash-and-forget-it solution. Thanks in advance.
Sphinx works best for miui and lineage.
Franco is also up there
Canting kernel. At first I was flashing a different kernel daily. I found Canting and have been on it for nearly a week. Super stable. Not 1 random reboot or freeze and it also has vibration control, sound control, display control, Klaspe and just about everything else
https://github.com/khusika/canting_kernel_xiaomi_sdm845/releases
Sphinx Kernel is a good all-rounder, if you want a 'leaner' kernel go for Simple Kernel. As for performance, I've heard quite some praise from Malakas Kernel but I can't guarantee anything. An honorable mention would be Canting Kernel.
bump
Arter97 kernel is good for balanced performance and battery life and its very smooth
Sphinx Kernel

Yes. 3x each test averaged with unthermal to rule out throttling.

Awesome! What do you personally recommend for the best balance of battery life and performance without tweaking? How about pure battery life?

I use lineage stock and have been getting ~8 hours SOT with light usage, over 48 hours between charge. The gains/losses in performance and battery life between kernels were negligible for me in real world usage and sticking with stock is just one less thing for me to worry about when updating.

Yep, might as well stick with stock I guess. The development done into these kernels is very active that some even update every day. I think it's too much of a hassle to me to flash a newer version daily.
I also like to believe that wiping cache frequently, which is a prerequisite in flashing, hurts battery life, because the phone doesn't get to compile it and as a result, keeps on running background processes to rebuild it every time you do so. What do you think?
Go for FK. 8 hours sot while playing PoGo non stop on 4g. Very good performance and non heating issues so far.
Just wanted to update this post based on my findings:
Franco: Awesome battery life, though the device essentially becomes gimped. I'm not a fan of underclocking.
Malakas: Best performance by far, and also pretty good battery life. A bit unstable, though.
Sphinx: A good balance between performance and battery life, though idle drain is a bit high. Will test a bit more.
Not willing to test arter's since it's SELinux Permissive.

I'm running Evolution-X with the Optimus Drunk Kernel. I have the NVT panel version of the Pocofone and my experience has been excellent. I also service a FTS panel version of the Pocofone, that had the freezing problem, and the Optimus Drunk Kernel really helped turn the phone from a freezing/frustrating nightmare and a similar experience to the NVT panel version. I recommend both the Evolution-X ROM and the kernel. Currently, the default kernel on the ROM is the DERP kernel, which is also good.
Nowadays I just stick with the stock kernel

Best Custom ROM suggestion required for least standby battery drain

Kindly suggest me best ROM that give me best battery life + least standby battery drain.
I am not gamer so speed is not issue but there must be no lag in mobile.
Thanks & regards

Try Paranoid Android. It is based on CAF so you will get best battery life and performance. Else you can try Reloaded OS.
ROM suggestion
If you want best battery backup ROM there are two ROMs which gives at least me best battery backup. First one is Oneplus port ROM specifically euphoria build it has great battery backup and the other one is AOSP based Corvus os. Corvus os has more customizations. Both ROM passes safety net without root permission.
If battery life is only thing you're after then probably LineageOS because its the ROM with least features so less chance of battery drain. Limited features also makes it most stable custom rom available in my experience.
Only downsides are safetynet and lack of features suchas as IR face unlock, scrolling screenshot etc.
