Hi, so far the only rom I have used is CM6, and the battery life is just absolutely terrible. Maybe its just my nexus, maybe not, point is I want a new ROM.
A ROM that you guys have tried and decided to stick to.
Battery life is VERY important to me.
Try IntersectRaven's CFS kernel, best I have found for CM
For ROM try Enomther, battery life pretty good on that one

I had been using CM 6 for a while and just recently switched over to Enomether's latest TheOfficial ROM. The battery life is now DRAMATICALLY better. Just looking over the Juice Plotter graphs shows that the standby time overnight is almost flat. Say 3-4% drop every 3 hours or so. With CM6, the battery level is on a constant and steeper decline, even when not in use. I didn't take any records, but my N1 on CM6 would be down to ~45-50% overnight if I forget to plug in the charger (from full). I heard that SetCpu will help, but I don't think it worked out for me.
Enomether has its own CPU Governor and while it doesn't offer as many features as SetCPU - the ROM's default settings work well right out of the box - no tweaking is needed really for the CPU governor.
I too was having really poor battery life with CM6, losing about 50% within 8 hours after charge, without even using the phone much! I'm trying out other roms right now just for fun. I'm using Evil's Nxsense but with the kernal posted by Autinhyeu (post # 8541 in that thread). So far seems to be holding battery extremely well. About 5 hours since charge and about 90% battery.
LeoFroYo Rom is pretty good with battery
try the leofroyo rom latest beta. i get great battery in standby with the stock kernal that it comes with. 2.5 hrs per 1% battery. typically in a day making calls and using the internet, i lose about 30%-25% battery. not too bad.

cm sucks when it comes to battery life in my experience. i tried the 6.0 version when it came out (first stable release) and battery life was horrible.
5 hours since charge? only standby or some usage?

That was mostly standby with setcpu profile setting cpu to minimum when the screen was off. But even with those same settings on CM6 my battery would be about 70% after the same amount of time.
I just reflashed cm6 but with that other kernal so I'll see how well it works today.
MIUI has the best battery life of any ROM I've used on my N1.. idle drain of about .5% / hour when using pershoot's kernels from droidbasement.
I'm using shadow rom2.1 stripped down and I get about 16 to 18 hours usage.

I'm using CM6 and my battery life is great. I got rid of my Seidio extended battery to get an Otterbox case and the stock battery on CM6 is awesome.
My phone has been off the charger since before 1pm and now at midnight its on 46% and thats with heavy use of Angry Birds, text, emails and web browsing !
My battery life is also acceptable on cm6. Not amazing but acceptable. Then again I put mine in airplane mode overnight and get about a 4% drain, which I kind assume might be something to do with my Widgets.
Okay, so I decided to try one of these two ROMs:
Enomther
LeoFroYo
not sure which one yet, and not sure what kernel to use with the ROM I choose.
I hate switching ROMs cuz of the wiping and restoring and all that crap.

i posted in the leofroyo rom thread, but no replies yet. itching to give it a shot.
cm6 is eating battery like crazy!

dont see why not! give one of the betas ago!
I am far from a noob, its just that I have been on aosp roms for months now. I have been checking out these new 3.0 roms but I never see information on battery life. Could you tell me your set up and how your battery life is. I also worry about the performance but need the phone to get through not of the day. Thank you

I was on stock OTA GB for about a month while I wasn't able to root, and my battery life was about 6 hours with constant lowest brightness display (that is, without the display turning off during that time). I could manage about 12 hours of minimal use.
I'm now on Synergy RLS1, and I have not noticed any improvement. I've done battery calibration and conditioning and nothing's changed.
I'm using the stock battery. I have a 3500mAh battery that doesn't seem to live much longer, but I haven't used it since I've rooted.

Oh wow, I know stock sucks, but I figured that rooted sense would at least be better. Just wondering have you tried to change your kernel? What kernel are you on? Also have you tried any tips on here, to lower down your sync and such? Thanks
I'm using Synergy RLS1 and I have the extended battery as well. I got like 27 hours on a single charge. I don't know if that is amazing or not but, it is better than when I ran the stock rom

I'm using aggressive Freedom v0.8.5. That's my battery life after 5 or 6 cycles. I don't know what the problem is either. I've seen other people with good battery life with the same ROM and kernel. Even had it underclocked.
I'm going to try CM7 and see if there's any sort of improvement.

How old is your battery? Also did you flash it right, I usually wipe the device, cache and delvik cache 2-3 times each.

I got the phone new from Sprint just a little over a month ago. I flashed it along with the rom, so I wiped it including cache and dalvik cache.
I bought the extended battery about a week after thinking that my original battery may have been defective and that it would be nice to have a longer lifetime, but it only doubled (which isn't drastic considering how short it lasts with the stock battery).

lol I was like that, and i'm still like that on other forums.
I dont think that my rom is 3.0,i believe its 2.1but I may be wrong.anyway,that said,im running Synergy RC2 with godmode.ive noticed an inbelieveable change in battery life.i had about 92% like 9 hours ago, im at 76% now and thats with using a few apps when I woke up.godmode utilizes a hybrid filesystem witg Yaffs2 and EXT.im still learning about it,but I guess using this hybrid FS makes performance.phenominal.ive seen an amazingg improvement in battery life.im using the stock battery as well.it comes with a stock kernel,so im not under or overclocking.
Evo 4G Synergy RC2
Using EVOlved with golden monkey and getting a good 15-18 hrs of moderate use on 3g
Thanks to both of you. Last night I flashed Synergy 3.0 with Freedom. I'm on 60% after about 11 hours. Most of which the phone was sleeping.
Check my Sense setup. A day of moderate usage ends in about 50% battery left

I'm new to the forums, new to EVO - coming from iphone 4, I must say.. have tried atleast 15 different roms, all of which drastically suck the life out of my battery.. gingerbread evo deck definitely seemed to be the best for my battery life.. I'm trying MikG right now and it seems hideous, love how it runs/looks but going from 100-80% battery, in less than 20minutes is not good. All i've been doing is browsing tapatalk forums.
Not sure what I've been doing wrong, I do ofcourse do a complete wipe between rom changes. Wipe cache, dalvik, data, and run superwipe vr - using armon latest. ( think that's what it is called lol)
Im running synergy rls1 with Freedom 0.8.5 morefreedom version and getting a good 16 hrs of moderate use. Also have carasoul 3.0 rosie so it might take it down a little bit.
Hello, I have got a Note 3 N9005 with android 5.1.1 Blisspop v4.0.3 Nightly ROM installed. Now I don't know if it's just coincidence or so but my batterynlife is just terrible since I flashed a new ROM. I already own this phone for a year btw so that could also be the case. I just took it of the charger and then I checked and it said it would last for 2 HOURS! I have been going for about 20 mins now and it already dropped 20%. I bought a new battery, but that is just worse (I did read that you have to use and charge a new battery a few times and it would get better). My battery has no bulge. Is it the battery that's bad or the ROM and should I then flash back to stock firmware?
Wow, wait, let me get my crystal ball...

Most AOSP Roms are overclocked up to 2.7 -2.8GhZ. (Normal Stock clock speed is 2,3Ghz)
Use any Kernel tool from Playstore like Kernel Audiutor to change this to 2.,3 Ghz (I was also wondering but since i found out that AOSP based ROM are overclocked on note 3 I imdetialy changed back to Nornal Clockspeed)
Afte this your device should be cooler and you batterylife also longer...

Apart of what already have replied you, you could also try downloading any battery monitor app to try guessing if it's an app or it's the system itself who is draining your battery. In case it's any app, the solution is easy, try reinstalling it, if it's not, then you should try making wipes and reinstalling the rom or try another rom.
Hope this can help you.
What were you doing with the phone in the 20 minutes? Something is definitely wrong if its drained that quick. Can you post battery status and wake locks.

Hello everyone , hope y'all doin good.
I got a question. I got my 6p a new rom , purenexus... Flashed a new kernel (elementalx). I did it yesterday , but today morning , I woke up , on 100% , unplug my phone , put it on my pocket and 2 hours latter , I had like 96%. This is a massive decrease over stock Android when it came outta the box. Can someone tell me if this is normal or not , or what shall I do to get the impressive 1 month on stand by that I had (phone was on 70% , broke the screen , didn't touch it , repaired it , when I turned it back on , it was on 37% , for a whole month+). What shall I do to get the best outta stand by time ?
Get pure nexus Jan 21st build flash Franco then apply wingoku profile 2.1 with ex kernel manager and you'll be flying with the best battery life

Check your battery capacity with Accubattery. Run it a few times. Your battery may be degraded like many other ppl out there. To rule out the ROM itself, flash stock and compare.

Everything with the battery is ok , just got to get a good standby time , does anyone has any tips ?
Well, how many apps have you installed I the last 24 hours? Maybe all your apps are optimizing possibly?
What do you have running?
Any chance you were playing music?
Did the phone have a y heat to it when you took it out your pocket?
Also... I always felt that the first 1-5% goes really fast.

Ha Ha, what is your measured capacity with Accubattery? Probably thousands of ppl are having degraded battery problems. If you are looking for a limited PN fanboy response, why not just post in the dedicated PN sub-forum? You have a battery drain problem but apparently don't want to run a battery diagnostic to find out where the problem really lies, or flash to stock and find out if your custom ROM is the cause. A "tip" is not going to cure your problem. It requires homework.
Edit: Another issue is that the 6P is inaccurate at reporting 100% charging. Your device may charge for up to an hour longer to actually be full on the stock charger after showing 100%. What you see as fully charged may not be.
I left Pure Nexus because battery life was very poor compared to stock and Cortex. I thought it might stabilize after a couple days but the poor battery life was a constant and I was not the only person having that issue. I was running PN with Flash Kernel and Flash's profile. You will get better battery life with Franco Kernel but with noticable negative effect on the performance of your phone. You could always try Francos Naptime app which puts your phone into deep doze as soon as the screen goes off but I didn't personally care for the app. You might want to consider a different Rom if battery life is very concerning to you. I'm currently on Dirty Unicorns with Flash Kernel and I'm getting better battery life than Pure Nexus but not as good as Cortex. The problem with Cortex is that you have to use Flash Kernel to get good battery life and there is no OMS support. When Substratum stopped working in Legacy Mode (again) I decided to switch to a Rom with OMS support.
Okay so I've placed a brand new battery in my phone and I get about 7h SoT and 10%.
Can you guys recommend me the best ROM from your personal experience? Without any kernels!
Thank you
Damn, is that an OEM battery or after market? I'd recommend ROMs with 3.18 kernels for now, because it drains a decent amount of battery. I got around 2-3 hours of sot on current unofficial pixel experience rom.

Personally, nothing beats the stock ROM is terms of battery life, still I am using lineage os 15.1 and satisfied with its battery backup as it charges superfast anyway, there is a multitouch bug on 8.1 which xioami hasn't fixed, hopefully it gets fixed in pie and I'll be back on stock. Btw how much they charged you for the battery?
