Which one will last longer?
ICS or JB ?
Sent from my GT-N7000 using xda app-developers app
U got roughly 8hrs of usage from stock ICS so how much shorter or longer for JB anyone tried?
Sent from my GT-N7000 using xda app-developers app
whats 8 hrs of usage ? moderate?
i get almost 3-4 hrs of screen on time with wifi of JB
In my experience the battery on a good ICS ROM will last longer than on a good JB ROM. By "good" I mean with the same battery optimizations, or being both stock without customizations. However, it's not a big difference; for me, screen on time is almost the same, but the overall time is somewhat better on ICS.
8 hour of moderate web surfing, wifi on, the screen wake up time like 2 to 4hrs. Or I should consider a back up battery?

Personal opinion.
Jb leak sva 5.1 much much more last longer than any ics custom rom i had been try.
For ics, combination of speedmod+any custom rom will give you the best battery life.
For jb, since there is only philz kernel. Therefore, sweetrom v1 and sva5.1 will be the best choice in terms of battery performance.
Try yourself. ...

both will have the same battery life if optimized to correct level. personally i dont see any difference in battery on ICS and JB
For me stock ics is still rocking. With stock no worries or compatibility issues. Battery life is great talking about 4.0.4 LR8. The german stock ics has few reported issues with battery life.

My Battery just passed the 1 year and 1 month and I have to charge like 3 times a day for heavy use. Is my battery spoiled?
Sent from my GT-N7000 using xda app-developers app
some china knock off unofficial batteries loses charge like that. the stock battery hopefully doesn't deteriorate that fast. my stock is still quite healthy. but i have multiple batteries that I rotate through so I don't use my stock battery as much.

are you sure you got slimbean (AOSP) to work with Philz kernel
If my screen time is just around 2hrs. Should I consider changing new battery? Wifi, 3g on. Screen brightness is set to minimum.

Yeah I've read that already but I've also read that the motley and omega kernels were the best but this test says otherwise. So I was just seeing what the majority of people would say. Do you have any preference for a battery saving kernel?

Franco's kernel is giving me pretty good battery life. Down to 17% with 4 and a half hours of screen on time and almost 5 days since last charge

Wow, I have about 6.5 hours of on screen time and like 16 hours total since last charge and I have 9% battery left. And I flashed some stuff and rebooted like twice so I'm sure that took up some battery too

+1 for franco
I consistently get 6+ hours of screen.

Battery life is much more relevant to how you use your tablet than the kernel. I get anywhere from 5-8 hours display time depending on if my usage is more gameplay or more browsing. The only kernel I actually saw a significant difference in battery life under same usage was faux kernel, performed well but my battery died noticeably quicker.
I now use omega 3 because it gives me faux like performance with stock like excellent battery. I used stock for the longest time, and still would if battery was my ultimate priority, but omega 3 smooths out some games and just about equals stock on battery life. I've never on any device actually had a custom kernel improve battery life over stock. What effects your battery life from day to day is primarily the days usage.

You are saying bull**** im sorry, but you never saw any kernel improve more battery than stock? Oh my god, what world you live?
Im a testing this every day since Galaxy S2... So i know what i saying...
I have the N7 5 days, and i test kernel stock for 3 days and i got 6.5h screen on time, after i installed Franco R42 and used the tablet the same way and i got 9h screen on time, now im testing intersect kernrel and i have 85% with 2h and 30min using the same way always
Resuming, any good custom kernel is better than stock.

my choice is still m+ kernel http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1937146
I get screen times around sometimes more than 8+ hours with normal use ( web not high power consuming thd games)
This kernel supports man adjustments like undervolting and setting the frequencies.
its works with trickstermod which lets you even deactivate some Cores. Im running undervolted, underclocked
With just two cores without lag or something.
Give it a try

I heard theres a kernel called "Trinity" that has long battery life, but i havent tested it.

Lots of little changes in settings, uv, minimal frequencies for CPU, and no heavy gaming, not a lot of videos either

All your opinion based on your "said" usage. Fact is I got 9 hours screen time on stock if I kept gameplay out of the equation. So no I'm not saying bullish*t, I'm saying my results. Just because yours differ and you buy into the "custom is always better" doesn't make MY findings on MY device any less true. Can custom be better? Sure, but it's not fact that it is.
And you say you've only had your 7 5 days, definitely NOT enough time to get real results. Especially since you spent 3 days on stock and less than that on Franco your results obviously aren't same usage scenarios.
Clarification: same usage means about same amount of use in same timeframe doing same activity. Which 6½ hours usage over 3 days is not the same as 9 hours in less than 2.

You wrong
Stock kernel frequecy with 4 cores enable
No UV because Franco R42 not working
No heavy games you are correct.

I hate to say omg. .I really do....but o m g!!! You don't have an N7. ..how can you give advice about kernels since you've never used one for the n7. Go ahead tho....test one on your Samsung! Lol

And 9 hours screen on is maybe possible doing nothing at all CPU heavy!!". Not what most people get doing normal things on their tab. Anyone can keep the screen awake doing nothing really and post a screen saying they got 9 hours. 4 to 6 seems to be the norm. ..no matter the kernel.
That's my story....thanks for enjoying it!

I had it all the way down for about half the time(indoors) and auto for the rest. Stock ROM with Matr1x 8.5. Airplane mode was on though(only for GSM signals, didn't want any calls on my day off, so I used viber for who I wanted to talk to)
46% left. Using pacman with faux kernel. Wifi on the whole day

Hey everyone! I'm asking you guys what your best kernel for battery life is and why. I'm using stock cm10.1 here with faux kernel and it's pretty good.

No such thing as a "best" kernel. Everyone's use case is different, just try them all for yourself. There Is No Other Way™

Hello Peeps,
I have a Nexus 5 with Cataclysm Rom and Faux123 Kernel. Previously I was using the CyanogenMod and Franco Kernel.
I looked around the forums for a thread on this but couldn't find one.
So I decided to make this thread so that we can argue out the top few kernels that really improve the Nexus 5 battery life. Some people were saying that the Faux123 kernel did improve the battery life but honestly I don't see much of a difference.
I also undervolted my device by 50 mV. So what is a good kernel for the Nexus 5?
