I would suggest BetterBatteryStats

I have installed betterbatterystats, but i can't really get any conclusions from what i see there, can you please help me?

Since you have installed an AOSP rom,you will experience battery drain.There is no such AOSP rom which has same battery life as stock sammy rom.

I actually have omni rom and from other users feedback i can see there is no battery drain, even the opposite. But thanks Christiaan91 i'll have a look.

Reccomend me a rom?

Hey, ive rooted my phone a while ago but i am now looking to installing a custom rom. the main reason i dislike the stock one is little things like when you start typing a number in the phone the person comes up then you click their name but then you still have to hit dial, and also when you go back into the app later to call someone else the last number is still up so you have to delete it. also id like to be able to launch apps from the lock screen.
thanks for any help.

As you can see, ppl reccomend a different ROMs, nobody will say you which ROM is best. So you need to choose it for yourself.

Temasek, the only problem is the camera touch focus with led on, solved with the use Of a 3rd party webcam

Cyanogenmod is awesome and it hasn't any bug for daily use

Revolt JB is pretty stable. After three days not a single reboot nor a fc.
They're all pretty good now, only thing is the camera, it's always the camera. But even then the camera is definitely usable.
this is not Q&A

I use CarbonROM (AOSP 4.2.2) ,every day, and I haven't problems
Thread closed as its a "Best ROM" thread.

Greenify!

I am sure many of you already know abt this wonderful app.. This thread is for those who don't know abt it!
It is definitely not my app, but I stumbled across this app referenced here in xda.. it puts any user apps in hibernation until you open them.. reducing background processes from what i can tell you guys so far..obviously every device is different as is every user experience, but i think its worth a shot..
here is the link
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.oasisfeng.greenify
There is also a donate version which lets you put system apps for hibernating as well!
Here's the link for that..

Give it a try people and don't forget to thank the owner and me if I have helped..

I've been using greenify with SHOstock3 for about 2 weeks and it really does seem to help standby battery life. I say yes give it a try!
Would you mind posting a list of apps you used Greenify on?

Beside the sound of latest version 4.4.x , do u think KitKat really performs well (stability and speed) over i777 default 4.1.2 ?

I have been having great results with the 4.4.2 roms Omni, Render CM 11 and AoCP 7. I am running renders CM11 right now. Getting AuTuTu of 12112 and no FC. they are all good just different features.
I am also getting decent performance with 4.4.2. Sometimes battery life not good but overall manageable.

Try greenify.. And if its the battery you have got with the phone.. I guess a battery after 2 years is bound to give lesser battery life.. If possible try getting it changed or get another battery and use this app.. I can assure you that you will get an improved battery life..

I think one way is to remove unnecessary apps if you are on stock ROM. This link by @Vivek_Neel may help you to remove your bloated TW Stock ROM...You may give it a try..... after backing up your ROM (that's obvious)....Try Greenify to remove unwanted apps running in background...It hepls saving battery as well as making your phone smooth....Try Kernels which lets you change governors and schedulers values like Apolo and Dorimanx for GT I9100...You can undervolt....underclock...change govornors...etc.....Try various custom ROMs and experiment until you are satisfied....And as Vivek rightly said.... search is your best friend... :good:

[Q] Help! Battery Saving Kernel for CM 11 on S3

Hello,
Before I get to the problem, let me tell you I'm a complete newbie in matters of custom ROMs and Kernels.
However I did end up flashing CM 10.1 and then CM 11 on my S3 (I9300)
My main aim is to save battery. Are there any kernels that I can install with CM 11 that can save battery life for me? And if possible can you also guide me in case there are any tweaks I need to make on apps like STweaks to get optimum battery usage? Give me exact numbers I need to set.
You'll help me a lot.
Thanks in advance.
