Which rom has the best battery life - Optimus One, P500, V General

for all of you rom tester..
Which rom so far has the best battery life in your experience?
I only have tested Void e and mik_os and I must say both are comparable.
I know other people will say different. I just want to hear from all of you custom rom flasher
so Which rom so far has the best battery life in your experience?
Thank you

Megatron with mik-os touch screen fix has good battery. Turn off background data in settings it helps..

I'm currently using LOL v1.42 and i'm pretty satisfied with battery life compared to overall performance. Today i'll flash OpenOptimus 0.072 for long run testing and see how that goes too.

I must say mik CM7 is really fast to charge... I can get a full battery in 1 - 2 hrs I think.
with mik CM7. I can take it off the charger at 7:30 AM and by the time I am home from work (at 6PM) I still have 40% - 50% battery left depending on the usage (low to moderate use). so about 10.5 Hrs of use 60% batt use.. about 5.7% per hour ..
I am using andy572 rom now and will report later

I use stock ROM (v10c fw) with mik_os fix, but don't really feel the battery is better.

[Q] What ROMs are more battery friendly?

What do you think?
If your or some ROM isn't here, let me know. I'll edit the poll
I'm using Nessy:Hypnos and I'm happy with the battery drain. 2% drain during night at idle (8h). I can say it lasts a day and a half before going under 20%.

I have the same drain in LOL, but only when I use francofrancisco's tweaks with this ROM.
And where is Megatron ROM?

A day and a half as in 36 hours? Only 20%!? What is your usage pattern?
I have a friend with RLS5 in a Blade with 60h of battery life... with 23% left battery to use.
I think..LOL 1.4.2 and OpenOptimus are the most durable rom..(sorry for my english)
In this moment devoid.franco.
Or maybe anyone but CyanogenMod 7, that drain my batt 20% in the night
It doesn't really matter as long as you know how to configure it to save as much juice as it can. SetCPU profiles does the most for me. Running slightly modified stock.
i use CM7..for me this rom is good for the battery life..but for anyone is different..I spend about 2 days with one carge..so you can try and decide

That would depend on you ... But I cannot stress this enough ... before writing off a ROM, be sure your battery is calibrated ... that makes a big diff
I was using my own ROM and used to get about 35~40 hours ... 2g always enabled ... fb, twitter, corporate mail, gmail always sync ... chat a lot ... dont play too many games ...
Nw on CM7 by mik_os and get about 30 hours with similar use ... I stick to this as its gingerbread + CM settings ... plus pretty much bug free ... only drawback is divX doesn't work
Definitely not CM7. It's not terrible bad, but compared to the ROM I used before, Void, it was worst. I don't have a huge problem with battery life except for that one night I lost 20% over night standby. The one other ROM I tried was Void and I thought that ROM was overall very good combined with good battery life, but I switched to CM7 just because I liked gingerbread. Compared to other phones CM7 battery life is normal.

You should try mobo player, it plays divx well.
I am also using CM7, and my battery hold on maximum 15hours. 3g enabled all day and tons of sms/calls. So carry charger in office/car/home
Stock ROM has awesome battery life too..

Yes it does. I use a stock 2.2.1 and it lasts about 48 hours before going below 25%.
I use it moderately. About 1 hour calling/day. 2-3 hours Wifi/day. Data always on 2G. 3G causes it to last about half the time. Games for about 1 hour/day.
devoid.franco consume 1% of the batt between 10pm and 7am (with all off, overclock 428-729 smartass).
CM7 consume 20% the same hours (all off, 245-600).
Im presently running on Stock rom with devoid.franco kernel v11..Getting great backup. 2 days with some calls, lots of sms, occasional browsing on edge and lots of music. Pretty happy with that.
Nessy is the one that i prefer does much better than the stock rom ever did. i can now use programs like pandora in the car and actually use the phone later

Yes, i like Megatron.
This is stable.
also nessy here it lasted me 3days and still it has 30% left.

Best battery life On rom (GB)

Which GB ROM has the best battery life?
For me chingys GB isn't working for me. Battery is not good. I've Bennett giving it a try but I can't get good battery life :/ I have an extended battery. In one hour I lost 10% with no data on no sync pretty much just have the bars going didn't touch it and I loose 10% in one hour.
I love this rom. Battery life is not awesome. (Sorry if not enough details )
Which GB ROM has the best battery life?
Everyone experiences different results with different roms. For example, I'm running BAMf Remix 2.0-6, I also have the extended battery, and I just got about 35 hours out of my phone with imo 3.0.1 lean kernel, 245/1228.

Best rom in terms of battery life?

What the title says.
Sent from my MB860 using XDA App
all roms are gonna be similar in terms of battery life. Battery life really depends on what measures you take to reduce idle usage.
-download "green power / premium" and set it to turn off data while the screen is off
-keep wi-fi, btooth and gps off when you're not using them
-use "setcpu" and create a profile for when the screen is off, limiting processor load
-download "battery calibration" and charge phone to 100%. Use the app.
I do all these things (I use battery calibration after flashing every new rom / kernel/ ect) and on CM7 with a 1.3ghz OC, I got 18 hours of battery life with high usage. I've only used 5% of my battery in 4 hours with little use (mostly idle)
I've tried pretty much every ROM. The one I got the best battery life out of was pi crust 0.7. I'm currently on Aura 1.1.3.8 bloat with the stock att kernel and battery life isn't horrible, but nowhere near as good as pi crust.
Sent from my MB860 using xda premium
+1 on πcrust 0.7 I can can 30hours + on a single charge with moderate use. Over Clocked 1.1hghz and Under volted slightly.
Yeah, I used to be on Picrust and the battery life was really good. I got tired of the stock experience though so I installed Alien w/ theme. The ROM is really good, but the battery life is not consistent. Sometimes it's as good as PiCrust and other times it barely gets through the night.
if you do the things I told you to, the alien rom will get much better battery life. I used to be on alien 4 and got 30+ hours on a full charge
Ninja SpeedFreak gives me by far the best battery life over anything else. 40-50hours. Tried Alien, RedPill, Aura Debloat, Aura Accounts, PiCrust, Froyo stock, GB stock (Bell). Nothing but SpeedFreak will consistently get me more than 20 hours.

[Q] best custom rom with good battery life and performance??

guys i have been using grif_07 cyanogenmod 7.1 for some time now.....although i loved every portion of it(espically the blazing speed and super fast performance) it was at the cost of battery.....
even if the phone was charged to 100%,the battey would drain out overnight despite it being idle for the whole night......
so i am using stock now.....bettery battery but below avg. on performance.....
best rom which balances out both??
I'm currently using 7.2 (1st version), and with it I use CPU Tuner to config my battery usage... It takes about 24h to drain completely, I use a lot my phone, mainly wifi to send emails and facebook...
Im trying Icecream Sunday2 and its going very well

gaming massive battery drain!!

i have the elegant white rom,its awesome low ram consumption speed etc.
BUT first to change stock rom(original from manifacturer)i could play 2 hours and 1/2 sometimes 3 without trouble with battery at 30/35% left now i play 5 mins and my battery goes from 93% to 87% in 5 min
so 6%x12=72%battery lost in 1 hours its bad really bad! i also installed the battery fix but notthing!in idle without playing i lost 2/3% per hours so this is good.
someone have my same trouble? it is normal?if so i should install back stock rom?
if i get stock rom again the battery should be fine?
the elegant rom is on stock 2.3.7 i had 2.3.3 when i bought this phone
sorry for bad english i have not much time
thx everyone
(already done calibration)
to full charge it takes 1 hours max is it normal?

You need to calibrate your battery (and/or delete your battery stats)

i said:already done
done 2 days ago after let phone shut down and charged until 100%
Roms based on CM7.2 do drain battery massively compared to stock so going back to stock would help.
Battery callibration does not help - see Here
Same problem here... Living with it cuz stock has just become old and lazy
But if you really want battery switch to stock its way better than cm

There isn't a noticeable difference in both versions in terms of battery life. However, 5.7 has better performance and is noticeable.
You can try underclocking to something like 730 MHZ and save a decent amount of battery life without losing performance. Check this OC kernel out:
OC zImage
Also, use Cyanogenmod, ADW launcher without customizations is faster than the stock touch-wiz UI launcher.

For all those who r shouting that battery calibration doesnt improve battery.. Did the XDA said it improves battery life?? Do u ppl know wats the meaning of calibration?? Calibrating means adjusting something to the accurate value.. Not improving the value!! Even we never said it ll improve battery life.. Battery calibration just calibrates the reading to more accuarte one. So let the ppl calibrate it. Else leave. It ll automatically gets adjusted after 1 or 2 week.. U can see urself the change..

Yes, many members on XDA said that callibration improves battery life. The battery indicator on your status bar does not use batterystatus.bin. It does not automatically adjust after 1 week or 2. It re-calibrates every time you charge!
Read the article posted by XDA for more:
google-engineer-debunks-myth-wiping-battery-stats-does-not-improve-battery-life/
well i dont know about you all
but on my phone battery percantage isnt that accurate
cause when i unplug phone from charger and just open game or do something battery percantage goes to like 90%
but when my battery percantage is low like 18% it holds 30mins on 18%
I've tested many roms here and stock rod do tend to have better battery life, but... When i tested the RAZRv3 by TeamCooper, it had extremly good battery life.
When i got my Ace it had froyo, that lasted about 2.5-3 days. I upgraded to gingerbread official, battery lasted about 1.5-2 days on. Then i tried several custom stock roms and they all lasted about 1-2 days.
After that i started testing CM7 (both 7.1 and 7.2) roms and most of them lasted 12-18 hours (i used the wifi disables 3g function and some other tweaks to last the battery longer otherwise those roms would not have been usable)
Then i got to the RAZRv3 i used it for 2 weeks and the battery was amazing, it lasted easily for 3 days with no other tweaks than "wifi disables 3g" and also the performance was good. No lag!
Then i tested the CM7.2byFAT and the battery was awful but i really liked the rom so i keep 3g disabled when i dont use internet (all background apps use 2g internet) and now the battery last for 2 days.
As i've tested.... 3g takes really alot of battery in CM7 roms but in RAZRv3 (cm7.1 based) it worked like a charm.
So.. Everyone who wants really good battery life should test RAZRv3 that can be found here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1478807
