Hey there guyz,just wondering,does JB consume the most battery life between ICS and GB?Is it because of its performance?Do u recommend people in XDA to choose GB roms for great battery life and JB roms for extreme performance?Pls guyz,give your opinions Thank you :thumbup:

I think you must try to make your personal opinion my opinion is that i dont care how much it consumes because screen is no 1 in consumption

The rule on the Galaxy S2 forum is that you are not allowed to ask which ROM's are better, which is basically what your thread is asking. This is not allowed as everyone's opinion of a ROM is different, and what performs well for one person may not perform well for you. You must try these ROM's yourself, with different kernels for better performance and battery life to find the optimum setup for you. Sorry but that's the way it is.

Dude. Really?? He is not asking which custom rom is better. He is asking for opinion about GB ICS or JB. Those are not developed by devs here. Being nice is a good habit.

Actually if you ask for consumption. I think ics is way more superior in saving battery than JB. There are so many reasons for that. Check the change log on wikipedia you ll come to know. Screen causes more drain on JB. Im also agree with the person who first answered your question.

Ohh great Which means that GB consumes the least battery life right?In your opinion,do u really look into performance than in battery life

I've personally noticed I can't get as good battery life with JB as with ICS. I use the same settings, and the same apps, but ICS seems better for me.
On the other hand: some people got great battery life with JB, so I also would recommend to try both versions to compare. Performance-wise (and the wonderfull features), JB is the best

Here's a question:Back in ICS XWLS8,its firmware was 717MB and its battery was superb.But now in most rom in ICS and JB,its 300MB+ and battery is .With a huge amount of 400MB difference,how does the battery resist for long hours?

I'm on JellyBam 7.8.0,Android 4.2.2 JB,and I can get up to 2 days of battery.(My WI-FI is nearly always on,and I use it for games,like Plants vs Zombies.So I could say battery is pretty good,through I think back in October,(when I got my phone,It was on ICS 4.0.3),the battery was a bit better.But still...not bad
Mine sucks with wifi on, I gotta get into that asap.

Yeah,so GB is considered to consume the least battery while JB consume a bit more battery than ICS.I guess sticking to ICS is rather fine for me

Hey guys. Thought I'd make a thread on battery life just so everyone can show how long the battery lasts and with how much usage.
So people can get a good idea of what your using please post 4 things.
And please make sure you take a screenshot of all 4 things.
1. Post a picture of battery usage and of display time. Also please post a picture of the battery graph.
NEW: Please Post a screenshot of the app better battery status when reporting stats. We want to see what apps you're using.
2. Post what Rom version you're on and what kernel version. (ie im on Checkrom v4 with siyah 2.6.7)
3. Tell if your using a script such as init.doh or something like that.
4. Tell if your using another battery if not stock. (I'm using the stock battery by the way.)
5. If your on ics please post battery life of roms.
Altogether the post should look like this.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=23864071
GUYS MAKE SURE ITS ACTUAL BATTERY LIFE. THIS IS NOT A COMPETITION FOR WHO HAS THE MOST SCREEN ON TIME. POST WHAT YOUR DAILY USAGE IS NORMALLY SO PEOPLE CAN ACTUALLY GET AN IDEA OF WHAT ROM WORKS BEST.

To the OP, you're getting 6.5 hours screen on time with the stock battery? Or are you using a different one?
I'm lucky if I get 12 hours off a charge with heavy use and not disabling anything. I always carry a spare OEM battery with me.

What do you suggest then?
It also appears you didn't use the phone. What did you do for that long? Your stats say you starred at a black screen.
Attatched is me surfing the web for 3 hours and still have almost 50pc battery left. Its real easy for me to get 5 hours battery if I use the phone for a long amount of time in one sitting. Impressive stats are when people get 3 days and 4 hours screen on.
I use a bunch of things to save battery. Safe to say its all written up in my init.doh thread.

Stick with what you enjoy. Each ROM base will have it's negatives. I'd use most functional ROM. Battery life isn't a mystery. Your display time of under two hours must have been very heavy use. One thing I've noticed with kl1 base is initially and few days after it always posts great battery results then after things settle it posts noticeably lesser battery life.

Hi guys...
I recently install the cm9 4/4 rom
And its amazing! So far I dident get any bugs..
But I do have one problem, the battery is so weak.. Like every six hours I need to rechargh it.
So what I wanted to know is what karnel that supperts the cm9 well will give me better battery results?
Thnx alot!

I peronally like cm9 stock kernel best, better check what services/apps are running in the background that consume much power!
I'm using the original karnel that I got with my sgs2..
Is there a stock Room for the cm9?
Can you give me a link please?

Mate battery life won't magically improve by flashing an alternate kernel / ROM. There are tons of reasons which may affect battery life on a ROM, and you must first determine what that is before you move on and experiment. Before moving onto a new kernel, determine what is causing battery drain using apps like CPU Spy (Can determine if your phone is entering deep sleep or not) and BetterBatteryStats (Can determine kernel wakelocks which prevent the phone from going into deep sleep). Also, what is your usage pattern? On extremely heavy usage patterns, 6-8 hours is below par, but not unbelievable.
Unfortunately I would agree with mattisfaction at this point of time. Stock ROM for CM9? When you install CM9, you get the CM9 Stock kernel. Not what came with your phone.
Well...
I see I got much more to learn :-/
Well thnx anyway, ill come back after some more research =)

There is no best. This is a ridiculous question that gets asked every day. What's good for one person may not be for someone else.
You have to try them for yourself.
If there was a best, surely everyone would use only 1 rom....

Try CheckROMv2 + nimphetamin3 kernel
Sent from my GT-I9300 using Tapatalk 2
Hi,
It's not a silly question - there are far too many custom roms with custom kernels. The combinations of these add up to an awful lot of flashing, not to mention then running it for a few days to get an idea on battery and performance. It would probably take weeks!
Anyways, for me, i rooted my stock UK rom using Chainfire 6.3, and then froze any bloatware apps i didn't use or want using Titanium Pro. This is now giving me better battery life than previously and running nice and smooth.
To give you an idea, i had around 25 hours moderate use with around 4.5 hours screen time.
Hope that helps a little. I'll probably try a custom rom sometime once things settle a little more, though i'm really really hoping for Jelly Bean now.....
