Im on the unofficial lineage 14.1 and while I love the rom so far, battery life is terrible. 4 hours into my day and I'm at 50% battery life.
So I'm looking to go back to a stock Rom that's rooted so I can underclock the CPU and debloat it. Is there a stock Rom that's flashabke through TWRP?
Or, alternatively, does anyone have any solutions to the battery drain I'm experiencing? Flash a rooted kernel maybe? If so, which kernel?

Yes, there is mine builds for both 5121 and 5122, but they are a little bit outdated. Else you can use @lubik1's deodexes.

Try XGen
it boots ROOTED once you flash it via TWRP and is on the LATEST Stockrom from Sony
Fully Deodexed and Debloated!

I'm running blend miui on my neo (currently miui 1.12.2 i think).
I would like to go back to the stock rom (android 2.3.4, 4.0.2.A.0.42 is latest update, right?)
What's the best and safest way to do this? Is there a chance that I get the 0% battery problem (I think not, but just asking to be sure )?
I don't want to relock bootloader and I also want to keep root because I want to be able to change rom back to miui easily if I don't want the stock anymore
Use Wotanserver (it's free) to go to .42 or Flash Tool (see guide and file here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1258723)
Battery issue no problem.
For root, use Zergrush, very quick and easy.
just flash 2.3.4 Android...
2.3.2 make famous 0%..
That's what I said
It worked with wotanserver and I have root acces.
But I can't get to that screen anymore where I can flash zips? (booting and pressing volume buttons)
Because you no longer have CWM recovery. Stock is stock. It sounded like that's what you wanted.

If you want recovery on stock ROM try Inteks V15 kernel, it's in the development section.
thanks! it worked
Inteks kernel is a bit of a battery hog.. lately i'm really starting to think about going back to stock .42, maybe even .283, as it had better battery life as .42

I don't notice any extra battery drain compared to stock. Try the CPU Tuner app otherwise.

i'm using AnTuTu CPU Master, and 90% of the time it's set to 576 MHz max. battery life isn't as good as on stock anyway.
I am relatively new to the whole flashing custom roms scene etc. I have a Xperia Go currently running stock ICS 6.1.1.B.1.54 but I am not happy with the battery life. I have not experience any performance issues running this firmware but the battery drain is starting to get me down. Now, before I flash back to stock GB I would just like to hear other people's experiences with custom roms etc. Can they improve battery life etc because they have a lot of bloatware removed?
Any info greatly appreciated...
Yes custm roms r good than stock..
U should try..
Either its stock based or cm based...
Just see before that is that rom stable or not..

Thanks - could you possibly suggest one for me to try please?
I am back on GB now but can't help thinking my battery life would be better if I could get rid of the all the Sony bloatware. When I open running services it's full of crap!
I recommend you CyanogenMod.
So I can install a custom kernel but I don't necessarily need a custom rom? Sorry for the stupid questions but all I want is better battyer life. I am very happy with the performance of my device
Also, I was wondering if a good alternative for me would just be to root my phone and remove all of the bloatware using titanium backup or similar?

Hi there, a new user here, I have a question regarding kernel. My battery seems to be doing well but recently i've flashed my xperia u with the SXU_TerraRomICS_V1_B54_Final that i got from XDA and my battery indicator is going down pretty fast even in deep sleep. My main consumator is the screen as show in the phone stats. Is this a kernel problem? And if I flash a new kernel will it change my apps, fonts and other?
PS : I like the way my phone is now and I don't want to change anything but to improve my battery life if possible
Hello.
I have sony rom stock for xperia sola but the battery drains very quickly .
Do you recommend any kernel with long life battery and a good performance ?
I don't neither a custom rom nor wiping my data, so a custom kernel stock based is what I'm looking for.
And I have another question:
If I flash a custom kernel, do I have to re-root and re-install cwm recovery ?
Thanks!

I have downloaded the .54fw kernel from this thread :
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2029756
Is it stock?
It's not that stable kernel ...
Yo! What do you guys think is the best combination to get reasonable battery life and good performance? Im getting 59k on antutu using AICP ROM and stock kernel. Do you think i could get more with some custom kernel ?
I am just using stock since Pure Android is what I want, with ElementalX kernel. Using ElementalX on my Nexus 6, Nexus 9, and GPE HTC One M8 and love it. I look forward to Xposed working with Android 5.1 and N9 being updated. I used to flash ROMs, but on Google devices Xposed is more then enough.

Im using AICP5.1.1 Rom on my N9.. Is it possible to just flash the elemental kernel without messing with the rom itself?

I'm on Dirty Unicorns with Fire - Ice kernel. Insanely stable and the most functional of the ROMs I have used.
As far as just running a kernel, yes you certainly can just flash the kernel w/o changing to a different ROM. But what's the point in that??

Can you please explain me that? Im still a noobie I tought that just by flashing elementalX kernel on my N9 I could improve AICP and overall tablet performance. I guess im totally wrong xD

Sorry when you asked the question, I didn't realize you were already on a non stock ROM. AICP already has it's own customized kernel. Yes you can flash any other custom kernel in place of the one which comes with AICP.
I tested some latest roms, as the Oreo still has to much problems I chose the MIU9 V9.2.2.0 Laicnek (stable rom & rooted).
Which Kernel is the best to flash with this rom for best battery life?
I read the MIU9 runs down the battery quicker and I noticed too.
Sometimes there are Kernels that even double battery life, this is interesting.
So I can simply flash though TRWP over my rom that is installed already and reboot, which option do I have to chose again for a kernell ?
Other than MyKernel which is pretty old, I see no other MIUI custom kernels around.
