The best kernel is the one which you prefer over the others.There is no such thing as the better kernel. Try both of them and decide which one you like the best.Have a nice day

Try all kernel. Certain kernel is good in one phone and others is bad. Vice versa.

Threads discussing which ROM/kernel is best are usually subjective and as such often devolve into bickering and flaming. Therefor we try to avoid them when possible.
Since kernels are required to be open source there usually isn't too much difference between them as far as battery life is concerned, but it's still a good idea to review recent posts in their thread to make sure there aren't a lot of people reporting bugs or anything. (just please don't ask about it in there, if you don't find any bug reports it's likely good )

[Q] Best ICS ROM for battery life

I am currently on BOCA MSI (v9) which is giving me the best battery life I have ever had on GB (Better than Stock or Overcome and a few others I tried). Even verclocked at 1.4 Ghz
Now I am dreaming to switch to ICS... Obviously the first ROMs out were not really optimized for battery life, and battery life seemed terrible. But I wonder where the present ROMs stand and how hey compare to each other
I don't mind too much having a bit less performance than with BOCA (which is amazing), however I would just hate having a shorter battery life
Anybody can share their experience with AOKP and CM9? With which kernel ?
(Just anticipating some flames: obviously I could try them but I'd love to leverage on the forum and people's experience before making the jump to MTD partitions and wipe my whole install)
Thanks in advance
Not very popular question i seems
Every phone is used differently so its hard to compare ROMs. Try it yourself. Make a backup and flash some ROMs and see which one suits you best.

I'm using CyanogenMod 9 band the battery duration, even with RC1, is still very low.

1. This is not very useful... As I said I don't really have the time and I was trying to leverage on people's experience (After all this forum is meant for that
2. Even if every phone is used differently you still get valuable information from people trying 2 ROMs and coming with their own feeling about which one gives them better battery life

No it isnt and if you had bothered to search you would know tha these type of "best rom" thread are frowned upon for many reasons, The most obvious being that "best" is subjective and also depends on your specific hardware as power consumption is different from device to device. It also depends on software and configuration you use.
If you want the answer to this question then dont ask here, instead try some roms and find what is "best" for you not us.

Which ROM and Kernel do you prefer (for daily use), and why?

MODS: No, please don't close this yet. This is not a "Best ROM" thread in my opinion. I've tried my fair share of ROM's, I'm just curious what ROM people prefer and what kind of aspects of a ROM people prefer. Same for kernels. So it's not about finding the best, it's about what people like, and why. It interests me. Still don't agree? Well then we have different opinions and you can close the thread.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
SO, back to the thread. The title says it all. If you would choose a ROM and kernel for daily use, what would you use? Would you pick X because it's easy to use, has great battery life and a minimal design, is built with the Samsung framework etc? Or would you pick Y because you can fiddle with things, it has lots of special apps and is incredibly stable, is based on AOSP/AOPK, etc?
I'm just curious about your preferences, type away!
DO NOT START ARGUMENTS! You are inherently wrong for starting one because people stating a preference can't be wrong for having that preference. So if you start an argument, you're by default an idiot. Don't be an idiot. It's simple.

Why are you like that... Don't be so negative man. I know what kind of ROM and kernel I need and I download+edit my ROMs/kernels accordingly. If I change my opinion, I change my kernel/ROM.
Ok then, me for example:
I bought my new SGSIII and first flashed the very popular Siyah kernel. However, I don't like being mainstream Then I used Speedmod for a while because it's a very stable and battery saving kernel, but I was missing the tweaks and OC/UV. It's also based on pegasusq while I prefer lulzactiveq. Now I'm trying Perseus, still seeing what I can do with that.
As a ROM I'm using DarkyROM, but it's a bit too heavy for my liking. I'm going to use VikingWay since that's very light, and I'll see what happens. I've also got Complex-D lined up for testing. I don't really use AOSP ROMs because I love Sammy's camera and agenda software (yeah I really do like them ) and I can't use those on AOSP ROMs.
Rom preference threads never end well.

OMG this again?
When will people learn?
Crdroid is just a great rom loads of customisations.
Perseus kernel is a goos choice for my performance and battery life.
Good idea with this thread

Kernel Questions!

What Kernel do you guys recommend for my requirements:
1) Good Preformance
2) Good Usage time
3) Good Stand By Time
4) The heat on the back won't be EXTERMELY hot..
Any suggestions.. Thanks in advance!

every device reacts to every kernel differently, what works perfectly for one may not work at all for someone else. plus we all have different ideas at what is perfect. the only way to find out how good it is with your phone is to try them all. all the kernels here are good, there are no bad kernels in the nexus 4 xda threads. it takes seconds to flash a kernel. thats the only way that you will find the perfect kernel for your device. dont rely on someone elses opinion on which is best. its like asking what the best color is, there is no best, theres only whats best for you.
the reason that you dont see other best kernel threads here on xda is because they are not allowed, and they get closed/removed. they eventually start fights, because everyone thinks that the kernel that they use is the best.

[Q] hellscore or matr1x kernel ?

Which one do you think is the best ? hellscore or matr1x kernel ? I'm on nexus 4 pa_mako-4.4-RC2-20140617 with hells-core b47 kk ...
I'm having no problem with it ... but i've never used matr1x .
Is it wort a try ?
They are both great kernels. I used to use Matr1x, and I really liked it. But once I found hells core, I've been on it ever since.
I was on Matr1x from 9 to 11.Then due to its lack of CM compatibility I switched to Hellscore. Now Matr1x v. 14 is cm compatible I came back to Matr1x.

correction..
is the best kernel for YOU.
there is no such thing as the best kernel. we all use our devices differently, we all have differing needs and wants, and all our devices react differently to every kernel.
what you are saying is that the color green is the best color. i disagree, we all enjoy differing colors depending on our experiences in life and to what appeals to us.

Sense 7 Roms | Battery Life

The past few weeks I've been using CM12.1 as my daily driver but I started to miss the speed and functionality of Sense 7. Not to mention the look. I'mhere to gather opinions on which rom you personally think has the best battery life. Sense 7 Roms only, please.

"Best" is very subjective. You can compromise many things for battery life like functionality and speed. Keep in mind that users have totally different battery lives while even on the same ROM.
This is something only you can judge based on your usage.

Please don't post irrelevant information. I realize that. However, I'd like to see a rom that many people view as having good battery life. I'll pick that one to try first. I'm asking for everyone's personal experience and opinion, not factual information.

IMO
S.ROM has really great battery life. It's stock ported from m9. SkyDragon is also pretty good as well and has more features built in.
I think that it's less of the rom, and more how you use it, and what apps you use. I.E. using greenify, powernap and amplify, you can get decent battery life from anything.
You talk about irrelevant information, actually this whole thread is irrelevant because there is an existing battery thread already and the rules on this forum suggest you to use existing ones over new created ones.
If you want a relevant discussion i am kindly suggesting to take it there
