im not one to say I have used all 3, ive only used CM7. it was good. actually even MIUI is good but u gotta know how to find your wakelocks with betterbatterystats. that way you can optimize battery life regardless of whatever rom you're on.
I could go 1-2 days on my MIUI currently FR rom, moderate usage, all my syncs are off, i manually refresh for notifications.

What do you mean "but u gotta know how to find your wakelocks with better batterystats" ? I usually dont have anything running in the background...
I have used CM 7, all MIUI, Lewa, and Mokee, and Ice BlacK too
In my view
1. CM7 have better battery life (but as I use to play 3 D games I won't prefer)
2. Second is Galnet MIUI, built by elol, decent battery life with good performance.
3. Third is Mokee, It is the best ROM for gamer and for others too who don't use to play game. It almost serve me for whole day with games, music and all mail, FB, Linkedin sync on for 24 hrs.
For me best choice is "Bumblebee" it's really a stable ROM and give's really great battery life, Best in which i have used.
In term's of Gaming this ROM is really great, it give's games extra smoothness to Game's by increasing FPS with help of it's new GPU derive.
This all make this ROM as my daily use ROM.

google xda betterbatterystats. download the app and follow the thread, those are uber battery sensitive people in the community.
so you manually sync all your apps as well? even calendar? and leave gtalk signed out?
wakelocks are what keeps the phone away from entering deep sleep. from the betterbatterystats app, if u see ur device entering 96% and above Deep Sleep after a night's full charge and allowed to idle, then good job, no matter what rom ur running u should be doing it right.
wakelocks are what cause a battery drain even when your phone is off idle while u sleep. it isnt only about background apps.
Yes,,I was use betterbatterystats,,I have managed all wakelocks and partial too,,it's give me battery life more time
But battery use info from setting doesn't change,,still give me "Android System" for highest % deal,,

flash stock rom and see if the problem persists. If it does return your phone and get a new one. You've got no other go!!!

post your dump here. and also at the BBS thread where u got the app.
so unless you are getting 96% and above deep sleep, id say you have not completely managed your wakelocks yet. also what are your governor and i/o scheduler settings? OC'ed at? do you have a screen off profile to lower clock speed when screen off?
battery use info may show that, but most important is u charge your phone to full, let it discharge while u sleep and wake up next day, OBTAIN 96% DEEP SLEEP OR HIGHER. figure out what are the wakelocks in BBS. if BBS is managed correctly, even if your android system is using highest %, no big deal, more importantly your battery isn't draining like mad.

Ok so...
I got my note 3 rooted kingo. Great. Installed safestrap..great.
Loaded some roms on...Great. played with them...great...
Kudos to everyone that contributes to all these different things so we can get the most out of our phones.
Back on topic.
So Im finding there is no utopia when it comes to using my note 3. This one has features that one doesnt have...etc etc
Basically what Im looking to do is extend the battery life. Im reading all these custom roms give everyone tons of extra time.
HOWEVER theres some bloatware I like and use. But most I dont.
What is the best way to get the most battery life out of my note 3 while its rooted? I saw agreat script or add on that you install and it deletes all the bloatware on load up...but I dont want it all gone.
Is greenify something also to consider???
Any ideas suggestions would be great.
Thanks
Greenify coupled with wakelock detector are the only 2 apps you'll ever need to increase battery life. Wakelock detector tells you what's waking, or keeping your device from sleeping. It even incorporates itself with greenify and allows you to hibernate it directly!
Any tips or tricks on what apps to greenify?
Im assuming wakelock detector is just an app that tells you whats doing what...then use greenify to hibernate it?
And Im assuming these 2 apps really only work best in root???
I never use greenify and I get a full days worth with moderate to heavy use...imo it's just 1 more app to mess with to make you feel good

agreed, my note 3 on any rom lasts 18 hours to a day. my max was 1d 6 hours. i dont think i nor most will ever be away from a charger that long. infact i find my self near charges and not charging because i know it will last till i go to bed or later.

Well everyday note 3 unrooted and stock outta the box loaded with apps and moderate use lasts 17-19 hours on 1 charge depending...
like 730am-1am following day. I was hoping to get it to last longer so at 1am Im not nervous about my phone being at 10% or so...plus at 5% aI think the camera doesnt work.
I see a lot of people complaining about battery life, myself included. I have tried just about every ROM there is and used all the battery saving apps and I think I've found a winning combination that will leave you with a fast phone and good screen on/off battery life. My stats so far today are 8 hours off the charger with 1 hr 30 mins SOT and still 80% battery left and that's shifting between my work WiFi which has many access points and causes WLAN_RX wakelocks and the crappy signal around this area.
I use the phone for general stuff like browsing the web, playing the odd 2D game whilst bored and push notifications from various social networking apps and I have been addicted to achieving 7+ hours of SOT over 2 days since I owned a Galaxy S1 many years ago. Instead of writing a crazy guide I'll just keep this thread simple and post my current configuration that is giving me good battery life:
- BOE2 bootloader, modem and ROM (I'm using Nameless ROM v2 for 910G)
- Roughly 25% brightness, all sync on, location @ GPS only (High Accuracy only when using Maps)
- Followed THIS GUIDE very closely which gives amazing deep sleep and still get notifications with the Push Notification Fixer app
- Uninstalled Facebook and Messenger and use Tinfoil with Pushbullet and the RSS Feed and set to open Tinfoil when I get a notification: Here's how to do that
- Discharge fully to 0% and then turn on again to make sure fully dead, then charge to 100% to calibrate battery
Wallah! You should get good battery life now provided you use the phone for the same things I do. It's that easy!
You need to be rooted for most of that thread don't you? I need my banking app from time to time so I can't root. Gutted!
Joe
Thank you for taking the time to write this up, but you should mention in the thread title that you need to be rooted. Thanks anyways though. I'm not the type to root. If Samsung can't deliver a good product for the $800 device they made, the device should be returned (which will be my case if the 5.1.1 update doesn't come in July or it doesn't fix the issues I'm having with this device).

Fully discharging a Li-Ion battery is not healthy for the long term life of the battery.
When will the myth of "re-calibrating" a battery finally die?!?
http://batteryuniversity.com/learn/article/how_to_prolong_lithium_based_batteries
Similar to a mechanical device that wears out faster with heavy use, so also does the depth of discharge (DoD) determine the cycle count. The shorter the discharge (low DoD), the longer the battery will last. If at all possible, avoid full discharges and charge the battery more often between uses. Partial discharge on Li-ion is fine. There is no memory and the battery does not need periodic full discharge cycles to prolong life.

Thanks for the guide, and I'm not sure why anyone on XDA would not be rooted tbf

Smartphone batteries haven't needed to be calibrated in years. The only time you ever had to "calibrate" your battery was when your phone would sit at either 5% or 1% for hours before dying.
Even then you were calibrating your phones interpretation of the battery voltage levels, not the battery itself. Unless I'm very much mistaken battery charging is handled by integrated hardware, not software.
As a software bug overcharging a Li-Po is dangerous and completely avoidable

Most of the software needed on those guide required exposed.. My question is does amplify, greenify boost, and powernap works on touchwiz lollipop? Also does the current xposed works stably for now?
I have no battery issues. Got 2 x 4500mah from chima as well.

My Note 4 version can't even get full root, so I guess I'm not allowed either.

Thanks for sharing this info just have one question I see from some of your other posts that you have used other roms is there much difference in battery between tw roms to cm roms
Thanks

Huh? Never had a problem running official apps from two different banks.
I'm finding TW to be slightly better on battery under my circumstances - which consist of terrible signal fluctuation and rx_wlan wakelocks due to so many wireless arrays at work - however I will probably go back to CM12.1 soon or wait for Android M developer preview to be ported to Note 4 (fingers crossed) as I just love how stock and minimalistic everything is on stock droid CM and AOSP and it seems to be a lot snappier when combined with L-Speed mod.

My banking apps work a treat! Especially since you can just disable root and BAM it runs!

They fit with the original note cover. And they last a bit longer then original battery.
I bought 1 as well & I get about 3 more hours. .... with the same use as with the original battery !!!!! Definitely worth it, ,, even if its only 3 hours

Hello, what is for you the best kernel/governor to get smooth and responsive experience with the best battery life ? Thanks.
Im on jdc team aosp rom and the battery life plus performance is excellent on the stock kernel settings. You can try bb kernel for this rom too, which has performance benefits and maybe minor degrade in battery life, not noticeable to most users. Ill suggest you use stock kernel on this rom. Note: im also using google play services doze and unified hosts adblock magisk modules. For good battery life, download the app called app opd from play store and from there restrict background activity permission for apps you dint want running in the background and dont want notifications from. Also restrict keep awake permissions.
Ive tried tweaking kernel settings in maby ways in many roms and many kernels. It never gives any better battery life, rather affects performance badly. Dude you bought a snapdragon 820 phone. Dont worry so much about battery and enjoy your life. Use my suggestions in first paragraph and youll be fine.

I'd like some recommendations for the best battery stats app to monitor battery usage....yes I could have googled, but I'd like some personal recommendations and to hear what people are using on the note 9.
I've not rooted yet so as much as I don't mind hearing about apps with special root features, like wakelock blockers and stuff, that's not what I want right now (will in the near future though)
Just what's the best app to display detailed battery usage stats.
Try all the good ones. Some like one over the other. Me? I use gsam and accubattery. I need to try better battery stats as I have not in awhile. Heck they might not be around anymore. And don't forget some apps are different and some batteries do not have the comprehensive fuel gauges so milliamps might be calculated through software.
I use gsam , Accubattery pro and recently Better battery stats XDA edition. These three give me all the information that I need.

Oh cool, well I really didn't think BBS was still around. I used that back on the S2, I'll try that and the others you've suggested, thanks.

Hey just a quick one, are you using BBS with the permissions granted through the ADB commands? Just wanna make sure they're fine to use on the note 9 without causing any issues, I doubt they would do, but thought I'd check.
