On my vibrant I am currently running Pepperake v2. It has alright battery life. However I'm trying to find the best battery life. Speed doesnt effect me that much. I am just trying to find something that has long battery. I feel that every rom I've put on my phone is just draining the battery. Trying to find a stable and battery safe rom. Any ideas?
Nero v3 is stable and battery is pretty good

have you tried enabling the Voodoo lag fix from recovery? And how was the battery life when you tried it?
I've been using Nero Beta 3 with Curio's Stock+voodoo kernel. I get stock battery life, with amazing performance, and of course it's froyo.
using ginger clone with voodoo.
On Idle, i lost 1% in 12 hours (did this while sleeping)
while light use, i got around 30 hours (music for a bit, a little web, texting heavy a few phone calls)
Moderate use around 20-21 hours (music alot, web alot, texting heavy, few phone calls)
Heavy around 15-17 hours (alot of music, tonsssss of web, texting over heavy, alot of phone calls, and dungeon defenders for a half a hour)
i use it heavily, and thats all i need, because when im not using it at night, i charge it, and 17 hours is good enough for me.
voodoo installed, no other changes.
Nero V3, even with voodoo enabled. It's fantastic. For whatever reason the longer I'm running this ROM, the longer the battery is lasting....it's almost like the phone and the battery are becoming a single entity....

Ok I have yet to try this currently testing NeRo v3 with lag fix. I've been using it for an hour with brightness on full. Gps on. Textinf heavily and im at 93 percent. Better than the last

You should turn down the brightness and use titanium back up to freeze some apps that run in the background that you don't use and battery life should be much better

yes, freeze things like...
ALL things that end/start with DRM its useless.
Media Hub
Samsung Apps
and
any other apps that you dont usually use..
i find my maps opens randomly in the background, and i never use maps, so i froze that, i can't use maps now anymore.
things like that will make your battery double easily.
Nero 3 by far. I can go two days almost on a charge using wifi, 3G, a little gaming etc.

Axura 2.2.5.6 so far has been the best for me
Internet, music, apps have been running on my phone all morning and so far I'm down to 90% after 5 hours!
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA App
I will also have to recommend Nero #. Getting fantastic battery life from it. Since i cant use my phone during work hours I just turn off data and use it to listen to music and I can make it through 6-7 hours easy without breaking 75%
Seriously good battery life out of this ROM

depends, there are 2.1 roms, and there are 2.2 roms.
Man, ive been running Nero V3 with no voodoo and my battery dies so quickly. Its a fresh flash and I always odin before I flash. Not sure why.... just dies with the quickness.
Eugene's macnut14 and gingerclone , have both been giving great battery life. Macnut 48 hrs and ginger 47 hesitate. Was using Nero v3 and got around 30 hrs. Eugene's IO kernel with superpower app is the key.

Charge phone to 100% keep plugged into charger reboot in to cwr under advanced wipe battery stats and then reboot then unplug charger drain battery until it turns off this might help. Also if you are not using the stock kernel that could give you bad battery life
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA App
battery conditioning isnt gonna extend battery life as most people think.. all it does is give more accurate battery % reading.
battery depends on how much you use your phone, brightness settings, what/ how many widgets and apps you have and how often do you use them.
im running axura 2.1 just checked 17hrs 34mins unplugged with 32% left
my brightness is at 60% about 2hours total calls, checked ESPNscore about 5 times, roughly 100 or so txt messages, checked Yahoomail and FBook more or less 8-10times each. NO WIDGETS RUNNING, not auto synching with GMail.
** i always odin to stock, then after flashing a new ROM in CWM, i always wipe cache partition, dalvik cache, and battery stats before rebooting**
well hope this helps
Thanks

My phone will randomly reboot or and my screen will freeze and the only way to fix it is to pull the battery. Is anyone else having this problems I'm running Nero v3 with the Voodoo lag fix and a custom theme I made on top of it.

This sums up my Nero V3 experience. 4.1 seems better, but I haven't ran it long enough to know if it is any better.
For what it's worth JL5 was laggy too, but no random reboots.

Im rooted, stock rom,, and lately this same thing been happening to me. Random shut offs and i cant figure it out.

Ok thanks for letting me know I switched to Nero v4.1 so hopefully I'll stop having these problems but until then thanks.

I've tried about every rom that's been made for the Vibrant with no issues.
I'm willing to bet it's another issue.. A bad app or theme maybe?
There is an app, watchdog I believe is the name that shows cpu usage/hogs.

ok thanks ill check it out
i was think it was my cpu but wasn't too sure if that was it.
i dont think it my theme because im running it now on nero v4.1 (its been 2 days now) with no problem but who know?
I've been having this problem. I use my phone for an alarm clock, the past week I've woken up with the phone off, luckily haven't been late yet.
Only thing I've been doing different in that period is I've flashed Dragon kernel 3.2 and had the simple cyan theme. Also running Bionix V 1.2, but thats only since yesterday. Checked for runaway apps but couldn't find anything crazy.
Stock KB1 here and have been experiencing similar issues - severe instabililty. NEVER had this problem before flashing to this level.
Presently using nessy hypnos . Pretty good rom . But would like to try some thing which give maximum performance with average battery life . Any suggestions ? btw I don like ginger bread
kernel an tweaks will be helpful too, thanks guys

Beta 6.5 from Mik. Its gingerbread. I know u don't like it but you will start liking it.
Sent from my LG-P500 using XDA Premium App
Check the development forum.
i currently use mik's CM7 rom, with franco's tweaks. Has excellent performance for me, battery lasts 24 hours with hardly any use (just SMS messaging and about 30 minutes of angry birds) and around 10 hours with heavy use (calls, SMS messaging, 3g in constant use for instant messaging, music playing)
The two others that I hear are very good are devoid.franco and openOptimus, both running froyo. I haven't had much experience with them, I always reflash within an hour because I like cyanogen so much. Both seem to have significant performance gains over stock.
If you use apps2sd make sure you buy a high class microSD, it really does make a difference when loading data.
Also pretty much every P500 can be overclocked at 730mhz with no issues.
thnx guys tried cm7 didn lyk it sorry , switching to open optimus , hopefully its good
Does anyone have a suggestion or experience with any mods or kernels that gave them a better battery life?? Mine hasnt seemed to change from having it stock or with jokers roms on it. Does anyone have any ideas how to make it last longer??
We need a battery viagra.

I use the cyanogen data toggle or data toggle widget from the market to turn off 3G when I'm not using it and it makes a HUGE different in my battery life.

Hello! I usually get about 2 hours of screen on time on my GS3. After doing some research, i found out that 2 hours is not very good...so I have some questions. Take into account that I have tried to minimalise the us on my GS3 and also watched battery tips and tricks videos and even flashed bestMultitasking fix already.
Is there someway to improve my battery life?
While making this thread, my battery dropped from 36 to 34, using wifi and power saving on...also, my signal is full, so it's not a problem from cellular reception
get checkup of your battery and apart from that also goto settings>battery and see how which activity uses the most battery

It seems that Android OS is killing some of your battery life, this usually only happens when you flash a custom ROM, Id suggest finding out what is killing your battery, download an app called wakelock detector, itll show whats using what
Also, the Greenify app is amazing, it wont let any app you chose to run unless you click it.
You could try turning on your power saving setting, itll slow the phone right down ( thats why i hate touchwiz ) but itll give you an extra 30 minutes of screen on time
Theres always custom Roms and kernels too, Ive got the Illusion Rom which ate up the battery for a day ( every new ROM does this ) and then applied the Googy Max kernel, Im running on 800 mhz with undervolting and still silky smooth
Also, try disabling Google services/ sync and disable Google now, for some reasons they seem to be the issue in most cases

I've already done the above mentioned. The biggest consumer is Facebook but I have set the notifications to refresh every hour...

This was today's usage...I don't get it. I guess that media server is when I play music through bluetooth in my car. Still, very bad screen on time ...
the factors that affect battery life:
-screen brightness
-bluetooh connection
-wi-fi connection
-gps
-3G/2G connection
-synchronization
-wallpaper
-vibration
Get zerolemon battery i can get 11/12 hours screen on time with juice to spare!
