[Q] What is the best kernel to run with CyanogenMod 7 - Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I have been running the stock from the nightlies but I have been wondering if another kernel might give me better battery life.
Thanks

Anyone that allows you to undervolt should give you better battery life.

[Q] Best kernel for battery life ??

Just wanted to know what is the best kernel for longer battery life from your experiences? I'm using custom JVO rom (Criskelo Gingerbread v64)
Stock kernel best for battery. Or..close second undervolting with Damian kernel. Modems can make a BIG difference to battery life also. I get nearly double battery life since switching to jvp modem. Also some Apps can cause big drain. Its all about finding what's right for you.

Can I install JVP modem into JVO rom? Or should I fully switch to JVP rom & modem to get better battery life... I thought JVP has lot of bugs like auto brightness broken with custom kernels...

Does JVP rom/modem has more battery life than JVO and JVH? I've read everyone says that JVP really fast and quadrant scores are really high... but not many ppl talked abt the battery life...

you might wanna look more at a kernel that's is what makes the battery life better also reset battery stats in cwm recovery

I find stock roms have the best battery life. If you really want to push it, get a basic rooted kernel w/ clock speeds (semaphore), and underclock your phone to maybe 800mhz.
try using a stock rom and a good root (semaphore/galaxian) and use low light display and underclock the cpu
Thx guys, I'm gonna try that, (sorry to respond 1month later lol)

can you please explain more about underclock your phone to maybe 800mhz
I use simplicity with special configurations in the semaphore kernel:
- Underclocking to 800MHz
- Simple-IO
- batterysave Governor
- autobrightness to dark
- darker-Voodoo Color
I also switch off Network and Auto-Sync with help of widgetsoid (see market) when not in use.
Goatrip has the best battery life

Hey, sindalf, what version are you running, I was on 2.11 using fugu(I think) kernel v3189, and my battery is not very good.
any rom with removed bloatware such as CM7 and others
try gamerz rom that is brilliant for bat life and removed bloatware
Back in the day that I didn't used MIUI ROM's I used Darky's and that battery life was great! Also the ROM was blazing fast.
Last version I used from Darky's was 10.2 or something like that (V10 for sure). Had about 2 till 3 days battery life. With slightly less usage than normal. And i must tell you that when I flashed that ROM i jys had a new battery.

Best battery performance ROM ?

The battery life on my girlfriends note is rather poor, I'm not sure how the kernel work with the note but she's currently running jellybam. Can anyone suggests some energy efficient ROMs ?

I am using SAmsung Stock ICS 4.0.4 with Philz kernel. I have no problems with the battery.
BurtROM LSZ and PhilZ LSZ = PERFORMANCE AND BATTERY PERFECT.:good:
Rightnow my note is running on jellybam it can stand for day with fair usage

It depends on how you define poor.
There's the usual things to do, you can undervolt to help, throttle the top end, get better battery stats to check for wake locks, make sure gps /wifi /bluetooth /sync aren't on when you don't need them. Turn down screen brightness as that probably the biggest drain on battery, so using apps with light background isn't great.
You can use different governor / scheduler combo. Some people say pegasusq /sio is a good one. Some apps help either by turning off services you don't need while your not using your phone or by adding tweaks to help efficiency.
Use search for battery tips as there's a lot of information out there.
That said there's always the old gem of 'new battery' depending on how old her note is. Remember there are larger than 2500mAh batteries out there, although above a certain point the battery gets thick and comes with a new back to help contain it.
Hope that helps.

[Q] Battery

Should i buy a stock battery or else oder the larger battery from ebay?
I have never tried non-stock, but do recommend stock only as it works better with fx. Kowalski kernel. It is something with the feedback from non-stock which can be incorrect/not working. Try to search forum for more info.
