I tried stock sammy roms like Chaos or aokp roms like paranoid android or rootbox and i only got 12 hors of battery (3h or 4h on screen time) and i tried some differentk kernels like siyah, boeffla or perseus too with modified tweaks(undervolting) to improve battery performance, but no result. I also greenify Maps, Twitter, Facebook...all sounds disabled...wifi and 3g not all the time, minimum brightness... Maybe i need some parameters to improve battery performance but all that ive tried dont work like they should be, any suggestion? Or maybe try another kernel? Now I use the latest Chaos Build 4.1.2 and Siyah Kernel with cpu and gpu undervolting
Ps: I dont find anything strange in BBS

chaos may use a lot of battery coz of its unique mods and themes..
for me xperianze and paranoid were good.. LOL actually dont expect too much from battery on an quad core phone..
but try an lite-weight sammy based rom with perseus kernel..
Try a small rom that has removed a lot of bloatware, use greenify app and best modem for your region, test some battery saving apps to find What's best for you.

Do you game much? Fastest battery killer in my experience
I never play games, i‘m going to disable and delete some samsung bloatware, and install boeffla kernel with zzmove-optimized governor and different gpu frequencies if that can help... But i dont expect so much :/ i‘ll tell you...thanks

I have the latest jellybean modem, i'm from spain, and I dont know what modem is the best to fix my battery draining, what modem would you advice me? thanks in advance
Enviado desde mi Nexus 7 usando Tapatalk 2
YOU? dont disable.. just use an new rom
oh come on , with 3 - 4 hours screen on , what more can you ask ? it is normal with that kinda screen time-on
Maybe it's your battery thats dodgy? Have you tested your battery yet? Else get on ebay and get a battery to suit your needs. Saves all the hassle.

hey guys,
why would people flash a custom kernel over a stock kernel?
like SiyahKernel S3 v1.5.1. i see that alot of people use this kernel, but why? what does it give? why shloud i use it?
thank you.
Because it tweaks CPU & GPU voltage by undervolting or overclocking CPU clock ,the STOCK kernel can't do those options that why people use custom kernel like siyah on their S3's.

and that has effect on battery life? will tweaking the CPU voltage give me more speed?
if i install siyah kernel it automatically speed my device? because i dont want to touch anything that might cause problems.

You need to read each kernels description and decide for yourself . No other way but try .
More speed = less battery = Epstein's 3rd law .

custom kernel normally being enhanced and develop by well known developer so that we can have the best performance of our beloved smartphone.. normally it will be pre root so by flashing custom kernel is easier way to root our phone

Not always true... I would use my Captivate with a stock battery at a stable 1.8GHz and a sorta unstable for daily usage 1.92GHz and could get over my stock battery usage...
With a custom kernel you can also change the governor and add other functionality. Often battery life / speed is improved without over clocking or undervolting by tweaking the way kern works
My suggestion is that you do some more reading into each of the kernels and see what they have to offer. Until then, the stick with stock.

Indeed, eargasm is just amazing for the soundquality.
Siyah kernel improves battery life, and just runs smooth.
You don't need to overclock or undervolt. Just flash it, and adjust what you want, or leave it alone.
I have a i9300 and I really like this ROM, has everything i need except one thing: My battery is going out pretty quickly compared to previous ROMs i used (Foxhound for example).
I want to keep using it, so is there a good way to get better battery life? I'm using the default kernel that comes with the install because I dont know which ones would work with this ROM.
Any sugestions guys?
Thanks!

You can try to flash a Kernel that supports underclocking and undervolting of your CPU like the Temasek Kernel. Also keep an eye on what causes the massive battery drain. You can install a CPU monitoring app to see what`s using your CPU the most.
Also what do you mean by battery drain? Do you make it through the day?

Thanks for the reply!
It's not really a drain, but I barely get through the day.. while with the same use i would end my day with 40% with foxhound.
In the normal battery control it says its 40% android use..
hi
my phone recently updated to 4.1.2 is overheating quite a bit near the camera... i have read many people are having this issue... i just recently did:
1) changed governon from ondemand to conservative, seems to make little to no difference
2) disabled fast dormancy, it seems to have improved a little
3) installed KH3 modem
After installing the KH3 modem it also improved, it idles at best at 28C, on ICS used to be 25C...
I have also just installed battery status PLUS, it seems the screen is the top in the battery list...
is there anything else i can do?
my current setup:
4.1.2
Baseband : I9100XXKH3
Kernel : 3.0.31-Siyah-s2-v6.0b4+ [email protected] #57 SMP PREEMPT Wed Dec 26 06:52:48 PST 2012
Build Number : ZJ054K.I9100XWLSW
Thanks!
try lower the maximum cpu frequency...
overheating happens because of cpu that working on maximum frequency..

I've changed Kernel to Dorimanx's and modem to Ms2 modem and is much better now In deep sleep, will see in a few days.

The modem doesn't make any difference, in my opinion. Is the kernel that manages the CPU, and tells it how to behave on screen off. Dorimanx is the best, especially with a pure CM rom

yeah it seems to be very good, i am now testing the "battery" mode and there's also "extreme battery", in fact i noticed that "battery" keeps CPU at 1ghz rather than pumping to 1.2ghz which makes sense for the sake of battery...

Yep. The governor also makes a great difference. (there's lots of them, none of which I know, lol). Thus is the reason I stick with conservative when I need battery life.

I had a similar problem I ended up replacing the battery to a higher rated mah and now its much cooler... not sure if it will work for you but the genuine batterys are pretty ****.

i recently rooted my gt-i9100 with siyah06-0b5 kernel and after that flashed official cm10.2 10/18 nightly build and after some minutes of use the phone was heating a lot and also battery was draining a lot..
is there any solution for this??
and how do i change my kernel to Dorimanx's?? do i need to repeat the whole re rooting process via odin again??

Just flash the Kernel like "Install from SD card".. The kernel itself comes with root.
Hi,
I keep on trying various ROMs available. I have noticed that on the same usage pattern 20 hours after a charge stock ROM or stock based ROMS give me around 2 hours to 2.15 hours of screen on time on 3G/2G but if I use AOSP based ROM Omega or earlier the CM it gives me hardly 1.15 hours of screen on time and it dies! Does anybody experience it? Any ways to improve battery life on OMEGA ROM to match it with Sammy ROMS?
I use minimal apps including whatsapp, location on, gmail on push sync,twitter, a little of music max 1 ~1.5 hrs. Also have installed same Kernel Agni with same profiles extreme battery saving or normal-optimized! But still I find so much of difference!
Another thing I have noticed I use 700 mAh charger to charge my phone, it takes around 3 hours on Sammy ROMs but it charges like in 2 or 2.15 hrs on Omega/AOSP based ROMs.
Can anyone help me to understand if you face similar issues? any solutions? any way we can improve battery life on Omega? Please don't tell to turn off location that has hardly helped me!
P.S. Omega ROM version 4.4.2 everywhere! and Sammy ROM 4.3 everywhere!

Hey thanks for reply! I don't want to actually stay on lower frequencies! 1.4GHz max is ok! I wanted to know have you experienced such things with Sammy vs AOKP/AOSP/CM ROMS ? Already s3 is laggiest devices I have >.>

It is laggy. Its the touchwiz software tat makes it laggy. Use other launchers or roms if u wan.

I've been using cm11 kitkat for almost a year now and I decided to update to the latest android version. But when I use cm12, my phone overheats and the result is bad battery life. I don't have this problem while using custom tw roms like blekota and s5 sensation. So my question is... does any of you guys have this problem? Maybe it's a hardware problem, but I surely doubt it.
I know that you can't compare roms here on xda but which one (cm12) have YOU had succés with.
Thanks, rob

@Roobwz: saw your post in Blisspop. I never had this heating on Nameless, Slim, Euphoria, crDroid, Paranoid. But if you search for this item, you'll find more posts… Maybe it's (again) caused by various hardware components. Best SOT and smoothness I get on Euphoria & Boeffla 4.0 alpha6 (zzmoove, battery plus), so try it. And if you surf on Chrome, try a lite browser, too. Good luck.
