So I've been trying various combinations and I have not gotten any "good" battery life out of any? Any suggestions?
ICS roms conserve battery in my opinion. (They all usually come with a kernel that is required)
^ agreed i seemed to get pretty good battery life from clean rom and there seems to be only the stock kernel for that and an OC one

I was just wondering what Rom and Kernel combination gives the best Battery life, because I used to be on Miui but the battery drained so quickly. I even had 2 batteries. Now I'm currently on Bi-Winning and the battery life seems. But I am willing to switch if there is any better ones out there. All input is greatly appreciated.
Best Battery life ROM/Kernel Combo?
Axura 2.1 with JK2
of course it is horribly out of date and JK2 suffers from data drops but the battery life combo is impeccable, 30+ hrs on light to moderate use
Wow, i might just try that out especially since I have a off day tomorrow. Thanks man.
Zendroid with dragonmodz ulp kernel. Amazing battery man.
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA App
Im currently looking for the best combination of Sense ROM, kernel, and/or scripts/apps/mods for battery life. Ive used stock ROM, viperROM, Infected, and Android Revolution HD. Ive only ever used the stock kernel or whatever was included with the ROM.
All results have been the same, with what id consider moderate usage im finding battery life to be ok at best. Getting about 14-18 hours battery life.
Ive seen some screenshots of people getting 24+ hours with similar or more usage.
Any help or recommendations would be great. Thanks
Cleanrom has been working well and has good battery life. Yesterday I got almost more than a days worth of battery but that was in minimal use.
Im looking to flash a new rom and im wondering which rom as the best battery life. i currently have cm7 but i get horrible battery life.
every phone is different, some say CM7 gives better battery life, but my experience shows that the stock based ROMs last longer. So basically you have to try to figure it out.
I have found using Faux's latest kernel (23), undervolting and setting the governor to powersave, I have been getting good battery life with CM7.
I am currently using Ligux and am happy with my battery life (~12hrs).
Neutrino EE has given me the best battery life so far. Make sure to calibrate your battery after flashing.
I have been using MeanRom and MikVirgin off and on. I like MikVirgin alot better, and want to use it full time, but the battery life is terrible. MeanRom makes my battery last at least twice as long, but I get worse reception. I read somewhere that the great battery life has something to do with turning off one of the cores while the screen is off. I'm not an expert, but i think that is a kernel issue.
Is there a kernel that I can use with MikVirgin that will give me battery life similar to MeanRom?
That's a relatively hard question to say which kernel gives good battery life. Because no one kernel by itself can save more battery life than the other. Some do handle the tasks and compliment the CPU better than others. It all boils down to how your kernel is set up, what governor you use when your screen is on. What frequencies on and off, overclocking the CPU drains battery quickly. Having both cores online and one off when screen off. What I/o scheduler in combimation with a governor. It really depends on how you use or phone to best suit your needs, not one combination is best. While maintaining good battery is a must sometimes you end up sacrificing from performance and your phone suffers with lags. From these experiences I have found that the cool kernel and the forbidden kernel give good balance and stability in most sense roms. Along with meanrom and common sense. Those two roms I have found to give good bettery life. You just got to experiment. While one combimation of Rom, and kernel work for one persons EVO may not be the same on another persons.
any one tried any thing that shows battery lasting really good amount of time?
I'm using xPower v5 and I haven't done any hard research into it but it does seem to give me better battery life than the latest stock firmware.
