Best ROM to make battery last longer

Which ROM (including the official ones) is the best regarding the duration of the battery?
And another thing on this matter, I have read about battery calibration many times in this forum, but I noticed that was a not an unique answer. Does it really work or it doesn't affect at all the performance of the battery?
thank you

I tried them, and it seems to me that power draining was the same as with stock rom 2.2
I tried a nightly cyanogen mod ( cm-7-20120701-NIGHTLY-p970 ) , and battery last a much more time, but this rom is not stable enough.
Everybody is awaiting here for ICS rom from LG and hoping that battery draining would be reduced.

Interesting, on a stock 2.2 my Black needed daily charging and just for the night alone drained about 20% of a battery. Since I'm on Zeus, my phone can last 3-4 days (same usage as on stock) and uses about 3-4% of battery in the night :good:.

I installed last version of zeus ( v6.37) yesterday and leaved my LG OB unplugged the whole night : this morning, batterie was about 50%
Did you changed some tweak with zeus tweak tool ? ( I have changed nothing ).

I also wonder how do people get so good battery with Zeus v6.37 and such a low battery drain during the night, have you touched at something in ZeusTweaker since you installed it?
And another question: I didn't touch anything but I see that many people talk about DVFS, what is it actually and what is more recommend: to enable or disable it?

Well i have Zeus v6.27 and even didn´t feel the urge to update it as battery lasts for like 3 days, never had a SoD, hes fast, so only have to say good things about it.

Stock V20s with diana kernel.... its best.

Im using the Cici ROM Mokee Port based on CM7 and my battery will last one day only, I like it because of the beautiful interface but the battery sucks. I also tried Optimus Max Rom V2, battery lasts a bit longer but still not good. I havent tried Zeus yet but maybe il try using it and see how the battery goes.

ive always gotten the best battery life from zeus.... and also lemmings is coming in 2nd for me

Marvel rom is the best rom for high battery because the battery usage is almost none when the phone is ideal
My phone battery gets reduced only by 2-3% overnight.

I've tried alot of ROM's, and I think MIUI is the best for low battery consumption.

Supressed ROM V7, is the best for battery life.

so the conclusion is which rom are the best ?

From all the posts the conslusion is only one: all of them lol.

The best rom for battery life is the one that's switched off..... I can get two weeks off a single charge.....
just sayin...

fact 2.2 is very good if you mean battery drain, but 2.3 is better as system and in my opinion better choice is Optimus Max , cause he based on stock rom. I use it daily long time. I used many roms and I still prefere Optimus max . My battery keep live about two days in normal using ( many time in net ) - but sometimes it is one day . But on this rom I have not any suprises.

[Q] battery gauge problem

hello
after flashing a few roms, my battery gauge is messed up.
the things i noticed, when my ace turns off deu to low power. the gauge shows 0%.
but when my ace shuts it self down and i plug in the wall charger. the battery gauge shows me a percentage around 75%.
the things i have done to solve this problem is deleting battery stats by cwm and a calibration app nothing did solve the problem.
also i have let the battery drain to zero and then charge it up to 100 and let it drain to zero again. also that didnt solve my problem.
so i flashed back the stock rom by odin. also not solving the problem.
is ther another way to solve the problem

Get a new battery.:thumbup:

The problem is not with your battery. It's with the battery notifier in the ace. It works well for a time and then goes absolutely crazy. Whenever your battery gets low, about 10% for example, connect the charger and charge blindly for 3 hours. Don't worry about the 100% notification. Try your battery now. It should be fine now. But if you're using battery extender kernel, there's a bug in it that brings down the battery for 50% in a short time after using.

i`am on stock gingerbread, the phone is about two years old. i also noticed that when i turn of my phone and pull the battery out for about three minutes en then put it back in the percentage is higher. so i do think that the battery gauge is messed p but when i use a calibration app to solve it, it gets worse or doesnt change. when i use code *#*#4636#*#* the status of my battery is good. im thinking to buy a new battery but i doubt that it would solve my problem.

Calibration is all fake. Do as I said and you'll definitely witness the results.

Hi, I have the same problem with the ace of my wife. When I charge it, it says 100% after 10 min charging !
And when I use it not charging, it drops down ...
I try to let it charge longer, but is that sure that the battery continue charging even if the notifier indicates 100% ?
I'm on [ROM] CM7.2-DEMOCRACY FINAL EDITION .. is there also a kernel to change to help ?
Thanks for your answers, by default I will let it charge for 3h.
PS : is there an app to check the battery life ?

in dialer u must enter the code *#*#4636#*#* there will appear 4 tabs there is one for battery tap it and you wil see the health of youre battery.

Guys, forget about battery level notification, etc. Any app doing so would collect the info from the android itself. Just do as I said. Everything will be fine.

I've the same issue. I charged it for 3 hours, it's not fine, it goes to 50% in about 15 minutes, and when I reboot my Ace, it drop to 15% !
I noticed that when I turn it off and charge it, the green battery indicator is at 80%...
Any idea ?
I tried differents ROM such as CM10.1 CM10 CM9,PAC, same issue.

I bought my wife a new battery @2000mA and she lasts 2 days now, so the answer seems to be the battery-life ...

CM 9, 10.1,PAC consume battery like hell, but not that much also.
If there r such huge drops that too after charging the fone for 3 hrs then i guess there is a problem with the battery.

Yes I thing the battery is dead, it's slightly inflated...

I too have the crazy battery problem, but funny thing is if i were to ignore the indicator and just use it from a 3hr-full charge till it dies off, i could achieve 2.5hours of internet surfing (wifi not 3g). To me this is good enough, all calibration fixes do not work for me. Any suggestions?
PS: I have the system time problem too with S'perience Rom, Eg. when i shut down the phone at 1pm to remove the simcard, after booting up the phone the time shows 11am. This happened to me more than 5 times this week. I dono if it's the rom or the battery that gives this problem. I dono about how it was when running stock rom because this phone does not belong to me. Any help is much appreciated.

Try a full discharge and then plug your phone until it is fully charged, finally without unplug it boot into CWM and wipe battery stats, finally reboot and charge it until 100%

As did Dianne Hackborn of Google last year see multiple posts on the subject .
Recalibrate battery by using phone and charging over at least one week .
Run Better Battery Stats to look for wakelocks .

Hello guys I installes also CYanoGenM 10.1 night mode on my i9305 and faced the same problem with the battery drain , I tryed several tutorials to wipe batt stats to refresh etc etc .... faced the same problem even with seep mode on actived like 7-9 hours in night mode , the next day my phone got off and did not started unless it was conected on my charger

I am tired of AOSP/AOKP ROMS including CM.. everyone of them is Battery HUNGRY! AOSP/AOKP ROMS are capable of draining my zerolemon battery (7k mah) in max to max 7 hours screen on time in 2 days!

No. Just wait some time, I think that battery needs to calibrate itself with charging. I tried CM11, in first it was awfull, after 2-3 charges it is becoming usable. But still CM10.2 and CM11 based ROMs are battery eaters. Try CM10.1.

Thanks very much for y quick answers ...i hope that it can to remedy the battery okey but i try too cm 10.1 ...thanks again :good:

Next time when you flash rom or even update to official firmware make sure your battery is always 100%, not 80, not 90 but 100%... I had problem with discalibrated battery cause i update from Ginger Bread to official Samsung Jelly Bean firmware and my battery gone crazy... Try charge-discharge couple of times as shut-down says... This problem could be a swollen battery too cause you say that your phone turns off when you are at 25-28%... To be sure that your battery isn't swollen, turn your phone off and make this steps:
step 1: Take the battery out of the phone.
step 2: Put it on a level (flat) surface.
step 3: Try spining the battery, if it spins freely than it's swollen, if it doesn't spin it's good and try this on the bouth sides of the battery.

Battery caliberation problem. caliberate using battery caliberation app or delete batterystats file

Discharge to 0%, full charge to 100%. And leave it some time (don't plug off your charger), maybe hour and more.
Type this in Terminal editor: cat /sys/kernel/abb-chargalg/eoc_status
And wait untill it says the real EOC reached.
{sent from my mind}
if I help you, simpe just hit the thanks button.

i was having the same issue with Carbon 4.4.2 build 3, i did this:
*Uncharged the phone until 12-15%
*Rebooted phone 7% battery (every time i rebooted i losted 5% no matter what)
*Charged phone good 4 hours and then ran Battery Calibration APK (battery Calibration was showing 4120mha)
*Rebooted left phone alone 15 minutes ran Battery Calibration APK again (battery now was showing 4245mha)
*Ran greenify, hibernated almost all apps except whatsapp (bug with that was launching Player pro instead)
*Disconnected phone went to settings/performance changed:
Cpu Governor to :Abyssplug
Minimum CPU freq: 200mhz, Max: 800, set on boot.
I/O Scheduler: Deadline,set on boot.
Memory Managment: Zram to 10%, Allow purging of assets and KSM, also 16bit transparency.
i had 100% battery from 1am to 5am (whatsapp, fast for facebook,player pro, traffic racer, heavy wifi, screen never went off) at 4:35-40 i had 57% battery, to 5am i was having 55%, slept til 11am from that on i haven't used my cellphone too much but i have 35% current battery...for me its okay since i alway have a backup battery.
Pdt: i owe you the picture im in my office and don't have an usb cable with me.
