Hi,
I bought Oneplue Two, was running on the stock kernel for some time, then the battery life was way too bad. Then read a few posts, and suggestions to use the AK kernel. I flashed it, installed amplify,greenify to increase the batttery life but again, it reduced my battery life from bad to worse, now i am using Sandy Kernel, i need to know how do i tweak it, how to use synapse, how to use kernel auditor and what should i do to get good battery back up with out compromising the performance. And yeah would it reduce the heat on my device
PS : Noob in kernel and stuff please help:crying:

Hi guys, as title say, i want to know wich kernel is better for battery life..
I´m on Unlimited ROM, by mv style, wich is really awesome. I´m using Mesa Kernel, but i read that Panic Kernel is good for battery life too.. And performance is also good. So.. wich kernel do you suggest me? Is Panic Kernel more battery friendly than Mesa?
Thanks
My Phone is a Mini Pro
I have never used MESA kernel so I can't compare the two
But kernel PANIC has good battery life... Better than rage and Kamarush v3 (no offense) (just my observations)

Get battery monitor widget from market and test those kernels yourself.
It's better to yee for yourself then to blindly trust
It's easy to do, flash kernel a and leave the phone in standby during the night. In the mornign look at the battery consumption graph in BMW.
Then you take kernel b and do the same with it.
Just be sure to use the same min frequency and same governor.
EDiT:
A ROM also influences battery life. So let's say that for user B MESA has excellent batt life, for user A it might be bad.
That's why it's better to test and see for yourself

That's true....
Personally i try and aim to use a 'lite' rom + panic kernal if possible ....
But most phones give about 1 day worth of work. There are few that exceed that (ultimate? rom by mv_style)
Kernel panic has good battery life

I prefer kernel panic...in every way
Hi guys,
I've been using many kernels now, Siyah, Franco, Yank.555, NEAK. Etc. But They all used up my battery like crazy! lost 8 % in 20m thats not good, Mind that i wasn't doing anything, it was just on screen lock. Now i've read that media scanner could be in wakelock to use so much battery but how do i see this? And my main question is, what is the best kernel for battery use but balanced with stock performance? I've heard phenomenal would be good, but i rather ask before installing another kernel by now.
I'm running sotmax ultimate stock v14 for gt-19300XXELLA jelly bean 4.1.2
Thanks in advance
It's against the rules to ask that
Why don't you try stock kernel? I have a good battery life. Try to close all battery-sucking apps like Facebook,Istagram and stuff like that.
I don't exactly think it's up to the kernel to save battery life. I'm using siyah, but, to give you an example, its battery saving features are undervolting. Meaning you can either make it have top performance, or set it to the highest battery saving setting.
Best kernel, best rom, and hottest chick in the world threads are not allowed as they are all subjective

Hey everyone!
First of all, I hope I'm writting in the right subforum.
Anyway, I've first rooted my OPX and flashed it with SultanROM about 2 or 3 months ago, with hopes of getting more out of my phone. Fast forward to the present time, and I've accumulated some knowledge on the whole ROM - Kernel tweaks and have changed now to CM13 ROM and flashed Arsenic Kernel after.
Then I found out Kernel Adiutor and saw that I can basically now tweak Arsenic even more, with many functions of the said app.
I just want to get a discussion going on what did you guys do to achieve better battery life ( i currently avg about 3-3,5h SOT), without sacrificing the performance too much, as all the options I have available in Kernel Adiutor are still a bit confusing to me.
Hey,
First of all thanks to all the support from you.
I want to switch back to MIUI 8 developer, but I want a good battery backup( At-least 1.5 days).
I want to ask that do custom kernels really make any difference?
I know that CPU Governors may affect performance and battery life, but will custom kernel really work?
Can someone tell what is the difference (Idle drain, SOT, etc. ) between the battery lives with stock MIUI kernel and with Custom Kernel.

Anyone?
So I just unlocked the bootloader of my one-week-old Poco F1, flashed LineageOS 16, and everything has been smooth sailing so far. Now, I want to flash a custom kernel. What can you recommend for a good balance of battery life and performance? I'm not really keen on tweaking parameters so I want a flash-and-forget-it solution. Thanks in advance.
Sphinx works best for miui and lineage.
Franco is also up there
Canting kernel. At first I was flashing a different kernel daily. I found Canting and have been on it for nearly a week. Super stable. Not 1 random reboot or freeze and it also has vibration control, sound control, display control, Klaspe and just about everything else
https://github.com/khusika/canting_kernel_xiaomi_sdm845/releases
Sphinx Kernel is a good all-rounder, if you want a 'leaner' kernel go for Simple Kernel. As for performance, I've heard quite some praise from Malakas Kernel but I can't guarantee anything. An honorable mention would be Canting Kernel.

Arter97 kernel is good for balanced performance and battery life and its very smooth
Sphinx Kernel

Yes. 3x each test averaged with unthermal to rule out throttling.

Awesome! What do you personally recommend for the best balance of battery life and performance without tweaking? How about pure battery life?

I use lineage stock and have been getting ~8 hours SOT with light usage, over 48 hours between charge. The gains/losses in performance and battery life between kernels were negligible for me in real world usage and sticking with stock is just one less thing for me to worry about when updating.

Yep, might as well stick with stock I guess. The development done into these kernels is very active that some even update every day. I think it's too much of a hassle to me to flash a newer version daily.
I also like to believe that wiping cache frequently, which is a prerequisite in flashing, hurts battery life, because the phone doesn't get to compile it and as a result, keeps on running background processes to rebuild it every time you do so. What do you think?
Go for FK. 8 hours sot while playing PoGo non stop on 4g. Very good performance and non heating issues so far.
Just wanted to update this post based on my findings:
Franco: Awesome battery life, though the device essentially becomes gimped. I'm not a fan of underclocking.
Malakas: Best performance by far, and also pretty good battery life. A bit unstable, though.
Sphinx: A good balance between performance and battery life, though idle drain is a bit high. Will test a bit more.
Not willing to test arter's since it's SELinux Permissive.

I'm running Evolution-X with the Optimus Drunk Kernel. I have the NVT panel version of the Pocofone and my experience has been excellent. I also service a FTS panel version of the Pocofone, that had the freezing problem, and the Optimus Drunk Kernel really helped turn the phone from a freezing/frustrating nightmare and a similar experience to the NVT panel version. I recommend both the Evolution-X ROM and the kernel. Currently, the default kernel on the ROM is the DERP kernel, which is also good.
Nowadays I just stick with the stock kernel
