Honestly, I've also used the SlimBean. Consumes a bit 'too much for my taste, the only ROM that does not have a battery drain is the Cyanogen 9

Battery Life? Samsung 4.1.2 vs AOSP 4.2.2????

Has anyone done a true comparison of the battery life between
- Latest Samsung Rom 4.1.2
- Latest AOSP Rom 4.2.2 (anyone)
I'm curious to know which one has more battery life?
Has anyone done a real test and posted results?
Thanks

For me 4.2.2 with DorimanX kernel got better battery than any 4.1.2 combination. And again, this is just my opinion.

Same here. I'm using SlimBean build5 with Dori 9.16 and battery life is better than stock 4.1.2.
Aokp cm ect have better battery life than stock. I could get 1% drain over 8 he's sleep. 12% with stock
alliance 7.3
siyah v6.0b5

I think aosp has better battery life but I came from PAC man rom 4.2.2 to chameleon (Sammy base aosp apps and look) and battery's almost as good
I was worried about this too but after using 4.2.2 for last couple of weeks its pretty much the same as 1.2. Tried Illusion Rom and RootBox and battery life is satisfactory. Especially since I didn't do anything to improve on it. Didnt even try custom kernels which will improve it for sure!
So for now I can't see myself going back to 4.1.2

samsung vs aosp roms (battery) / show ur WIFI drain results!

hello,
iam switching between samsung rom and aosp roms lately and the battery life keeps me wondering.
using a custom kernel and slimbean (ie.) the battery life rly improved compared to a few months now, but WIFI takes still more battery compared to samsung roms.
is that normal? any advises for that? ive exactly the same apps and 0 wakelocks cause of other apps (everything tweaked rly).
but still WIFI takes 1,5%/h on an aosp rom.
any experiences on that?
what are ur results?
I'm on CM 10.1 and the wifi consumes more battery for me either. but I'm not much bothered about it 'cause i charge the battery whenever needed.
-------------------------------------
please let me know if i'm wrong and CLICK thanks if i help

super battery drainage

Hi xda forum users...
I recently got cyanogenmod9 for my phone and the battery life is terrible.
Samsung galaxy gio
Moderate texting
Wifi on but turns off during sleep
No calls
No games
I really like cm9 but I also like battery life being longer

Ok I dont use ur phone so i am not sure if what i say might be accurate. From what i can see, ur phone was only supported my Samsung till android 2.3. Which probably means that your phone doesnt have a proper kernel for android 4.0.4 on which cm9 is based on. So probably the kernel being used isnt fully stable, hence ur battery life is terrible, I would suggest u stick to a gingerbread (android 2.3) ROM with a stable kernel to enjoy good battery life. It could also be that ur battery might actually be spoilt. Is there any slight bloating on ur battery?

The kernel which was compiled for the your phone might not be fully stable yet causing the battery drain. If there is a new version of that rom try updating to that and see if that fixes the problem.

[Q] battery usage in 4.3 samsung based roms

My issue with Samsung 4,3 based roms is this:
Badass battery monitor always shows kernel on top of my battery usage charts. Normally on 4.1.2 based roms the kernel would run for about 12-15 minutes over the course of battery being used form 100 to about 10 % but on 4.3 on the same usage kernel is runnning for close to an hour. Also Android OS always tops my battery drainage charts irrespective of what kernel plus rom I use.
With the same set of apps I had pretty good battery life on 4.1.2 but not so good on 4.3.
BBS also does not show any weird behavior.
Any pointers as to how I can prevent kernel usage from being so high?

First of all- what build versions / kernels did you use? I'm running Neatrom's NA5 version with stock kernel and it seems to have the best battery life i've ever seen (even compared to 4.1.2 roms) (it can be better using Boeffla kernel, but for me its more than enough)
Second- try to set off 'Scanning always available' in wifi settings, and look for 'location settings' in Google Settings app- they cause a huge battery usage

I used omega v54/55 as well as the last 2 versions of neat rom. Currently using the NA5 one. On Stock kernel. Tried boeffla as well.
Wifi Scanning off. and no location services as well.

This may look like a silly question, but you have playing around with ROMs istalling few daily, or you've let them settle. I used to change them few times/hour, but now I am really happy with SmartDroid Lite v5 (ex ZDroid). It really is a difference compared to when I instlled it 3 days ago. First, it was like 7-10% dropped in the first night. Last night I got to bet with 43% (23PM) and woke up with 43% (8AM). I never believed the others when they said that. BTW, I am using latest AGNi Stock 3.5.1 kernel.

Best ROM for Battery Life and Stability for i9300?

Hey guys,
I have 4.3 Jellybean for my Intl Samsung GS3 and battery life is downright terrible. I have it rooted and I am looking for a ROM. My main priorities are battery life and stability. I don't care about performance. Ideally, I want at least 3 hours SOT and all the functions work like stock firmware.
Thanks!
I suggest you to buy a new battery and keep using stock firmware.
Hi
I suggest you AMCHA Rom KK v 9.00 when use kernel ( MoRoKernel-1.7) : Battery Life awesome
or CyanogenMod 12.1 for i9300
I think it's your battery. I can easily reach 3 hours SOT and sometimes 4 ~ 5 hours SOT if im not playing games with my S3 on any ROMs. From Stock 4.3 to Custom 6.0
