[Q] Battery life on CM9 roms? - AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717

Is it just me or does battery life on CM9 for Note suck?
I know it's an unofficial port and all, but I seem to get significantly poorer battery life on the AOSP/CM9 roms vs the rooted/debloated stock ones.
On the OnlyOne rom, I got ****ing insane battery life. Like 36+ hours with normal/heavy use. On all of the AOSP/CM9 variants (Flapjaxx/h0twir3) I'm at 50% after 5-6 hours of light use.
Am I the only one? Am I doing something wrong? On every other device I've owned (Nexus One, Nexus S, Captivate, Streak, Sensation, Fascinate...) AOSP has gotten significantly BETTER battery life. There are no obvious rogue apps that I can find, and I'm running exactly the same apps on both roms, still, CM9 variants inexplicably get poor battery life on this phone.
The only thing I've noticed is that Android System is using way more battery on CM9 vs stock roms.
Am I nuts?

Maybe I'll try that one. I'm basically just trying to see if anyone else has the issue before I go looking elsewhere to solve it.

AOSP vs TouchWiz (battery life)

Which one tends to be better? Usually for HTC phones I find the aosp roms to trump the sense roms, but on my old Samsung Vibrant the aosp roms ALL had horrendous battery life!
Please lemme know your personal findings!
Thanks
BTW All posts will be thanked

I tried kj3 and cm7 #116 with siyah kernel on both and battery was the identical, cm7 felt smoother though. But some guys are able to squeeze 2 days of battery use while i can only do 1 day, so it also depends what apps you have running and how much you use the phone.

The same battery life? Interesting. In that case I'll probably choose Samsung roms for all the extra features and codec compatibilities.
Please! More opinions and thoughts!

Yup identical, i remember seeing people posting these great 2day battery life shots and they were all on samsung roms so i decided to give it a try. After i loaded the samsung rom and all of my apps/widgets from my cm7 rom the battery life was identical at the end of the day. I do miss that codec compatibility but mx video player takes care of that with ease.

As long as my display has consumed 70-75% at the end of my day (when my battery went from 100% to 20%) I don't bother looking at ways to eliminate the "drain" that some users have. Most, if not all, of the drain is installed on the outside of the screen.
Sure, when I put it in airplane modus inside a vault it lasts more than 5 days. Yay I must be a super tweaker.
i get about 17 hours with about 5.30 hours of display on samsung based ROM but then again it all depends on what you use your cell for
Thanks for all the input keep em coming!

Any screen on times for aosp? Thx!

[Q] Battery Life with ICS Rom

I'm thinking about buying an Atrix and putting an ICS rom on it.
For those of you who have an Atrix with ICS, what sort of battery life are you getting? Also, let me know what Rom you're using?
JOYOS V3 Excellent battery life

CM9 & AOKP both have excellent battery life.
Currently on AOKP 37a.
Atrix Head
So in terms of hours, how many many are you guys looking at?
These are guesstimates and not hard numbers since I dont actively keep track, but in my experience its been on par with Gingerbread. About 5 hours continuous use with the screen on, lasts between 1 and 3 days depending on how heavily its used.

[Q] Battery life STOCK vs CM10.1

Hi, just wanted to know if i have the same application, the same usage with CM 10.1 and Stock lastest Sammy rom, which would give me more battery life ? :angel:
How much aproximatively would it be different if so ?
Samsung would be better.....10-20%
I keep reading of people using the phone while browsing for +4h of screen or surfing the web for 2h on 4G and still having 70% left of battery life.
This is all stock ROMs. From my usage this would be impossible, I'm using cm10.1 and on 3g I could probably go to 2h screen on but that's it.
I'm starting to think that maybe aosp roms don't even come close to stock ROMs (which I never tried though).
Some experiences between roms and battery life?
Yeah I agree that stock seems better than aosp based. Even using similar kernels (perseus on stock v devil on aosp)

yes.stock is better

[Q] Clean Android and CM10 battery usage

A friend of mine installed 2 ROMs a while ago and tested them for a week. One with clean android and the other one was CyanogenMod 10.
He says while it was prettier and nicer to use the battery went dead almost twice as fast without even using the phone.
Is this true? Are there any ways to fix this issue?
Thanks
Not true at all in my experience. I've used stock, Insert Coin, Viper and CM10 & I find that CM10's battery life is the longest by quite a margin.

There all sense roms. The OP was comparing AOSP vs Cyanogen. AOSP unless developed by monkeys will always have best battery life. This is because of all the extra features and mods that go into cyanogen. You can't have the best of both worlds. Cyanogen offers perfectly acceptable battery usage though, at least double what sense roms offer.

You will have to play with a combination of Devil Kernel settings to get the battery life you want. But your still not going to get stock battery life as this is so experimental everyone is still playing with settings to get max out of it. You can get 18 hours out of the latest, but not with heavy use.
I m getting very good battery life on the latest nightlies..... Idle drain is lowest I have seen on any ROM I have used. I m on stock cm kernel

Me too. Getting the best battery performance i have ever seen. Was in disbelief. Purposely put on wifi to help it run down faster. ha!
I was getting an extra 5 hours easy with the stock kernel. Tophaholic is right, the idle drain is next to nothing. Beans is still better than stock, but not quite as good as cm10.2 in terms of battery life.
I am running the latest nightly for 10.2, but I am getting terrible battery life. Any ideas how to force the CPU to idle?
!0.2 has the best battery life of any AOSP rom ive tried, mainly because of android 4.3. Cant wait till we get a sammy build!
