best gingerbread rom and kernel with great perfomance and battery life?

please share
is there any custom gingerbread rom with bloatware removed and big free ram? and a kernel with OC/UV? plus great game compability?
how about MIUI?

Have yet to find one to best DjangoMouche 1.2.1 its GB 2.3.4 its customized, with different themes to choose from and a good bunch of performance tweaks. everything has been running smooth.
games run well, things load fast
I'm using Gueste overclock v1.8.1 kernel but thats up to choice. i found it works great between 900 - 1300mhz. but above that its rebooted on me a few times.

You could try Temasek's CM7 Rom with it's own kernel, it has OC/UV and all that things.. Run's pretty smooth and stable but i can recommend you to use GO Launcher EX with an ICS Theme :good:

I agree that DJ is one of the best ROMs...no doubt
but could i ask you why DJ 1.2.1 and not the DJ 1.5RC1....I am using the latest and it is more than a magical dream....out of the stars and heaven....I am curious why you are with an older version....

Currently on DJ 1.5RC1 and have to say it is truly magical.The feel of performance,smoothness and speed is just incredible.Always try to experiment with other GB roms and always drawn back to DJ ROM.DJ roms provide many choices according to our needs and customization as we like with transformation packs.So have to say this is the best choice i will ever have:cyclops:

Same here, Django Manouche, currently 1.5 RC1, but I am using latest spica kernel ;-)

Hi, this is my first post here. I have been flashing various roms and a few basebands and rils in my quest to get better battery life from my LG Optimus 2x. In the end. Most of what I have done is experimental and I can not say I understand much about versions and combinations. Last night, I read quite a few posts about the Django Manouche rom and downloaded all the three versions of the 1.6, the stock, the Spica and the Gueste.
Flashing led to boot looping on the Spica rom, powering off on the Gueste rom while on the stock 1.6s it ran OK, with some applications not running until I rebooted.
I came from a stock LG rom and was wondering if I need to change the baseband and kernel also, for these to work.
Any advice is welcome. Thanks in advance.

I think these "best rom" threads are forbidden but I'll give my 2 cents anyway, in case I'm wrong:
for me the best rom is Gueste Hybrid revolutions 3.7, is a hybrid between stock Rom and cm7.2, and symbiosis kernel 1.3.
I get great performance, great battery life, great ram management. I can't really complain, I'm so satisfied that I'm not that eager to get ICS (at least not as much as I was before).
LG optimus 2x, rom Gueste Hybrid 3.7

@daas88. Taking your advice, I have flashed the same combination as you, just this morning. I have been very active on the phone since then, so I can't tell right away, if there is any improvement in battery life.
By the way, I continue to be on the 20i baseband.
I shall report back soon.

Temasek
Probably the cleanest install would be Temasek. A very stable CM7 build. It's sort of finished, and offers a great experience. Use it with Temasek's, Spica's or symbi0sis kernel.
I've tried DM and it's great, but this just feels cleaner.
gl!

I have been reading about the Temasek rom. What is your view on its battery consumption? That is something I am focussing on. The stock LG set up lasts for about 9-11 hours on my phone, with full 3G, about 4 hours of wifi usage and about 1-2 hour of music (Neutron music player). I have a battery pack that I carry with me to work, but it is a big bother.
So, basically, to me battery life is top priority. If I can extend it to 12-15 hours, I am home and dry.

I've used Temasek for a long period of time, and though I don't want to go back to gingerbread (currently on Paranoid Android) I do miss the battery life. With Temasek (or stock CM7) I would get about 32 hours of battery life: a day and a night. This with some browsing, playing music checking e-mail.
Overclocking would lose you some of that time, but the toggle2g app would win it back. :good:

i have cm7 135 from temasek but battery is not so great have bb 218 and ril its the best right now but battery hold max 3h screen on and with 15-17h on time, it sucks, so i want to try dj mouche v20s with bb and rill and hope to get better battery life....
because if a old galaxy s1 can get 1day easy and 4h++ screen on, the fricking lg must get some were neer also......
stanby is **** i find on this phone dont know if its normal but yeah.
i say try dj mango mouch and flash also v20s bb and i think battery will be great and performance i think they are the same

Increased CPU performance, larger screen and stagnated battery technology will do this
As for battery life, I do miss my Nokia 3210! :laugh:

A small update. I charged my phone to 100% yesterday evening at 7 PM. From then on till now, what I observe is that with the phone in standby mode, the battery consumption curve remains almost flat. But the moment I start using some apps, for instance the Number links game for 15-20 minutes, the battery level drops by 10%.
This is with the Gueste Hybrid ROM and the Symbiosis kernel.
Further update: The battery went to 14% and then I charged it. 15 hours. Some improvement. It may be too early to comment, but this set up seems to work superbly when the phone is on standby. When the phone is in use, the consumption seems to be high. Could it be improved by changing the BB or the ril?

The O2x doesn't have a larger screen than the Galaxy S. :cyclops:

my record was 6 hours of screen on time with a cm7 rom and etana kernel with ds battery driver. but now i cant get even 4h screen on time with the same config (only updated versions) :/
maybe my battery is getting worn out...

[Q] Best ROM/kernel combo best battery life w/3G is turned on (Android 4.0 & above)

[Q] Best ROM/kernel combo best battery life w/3G is turned on (Android 4.0 & above)
Hi guys, as per thread title -
I'm constantly on the move and usually do not have access to a charger for the day, and I rely heavily on 3G for my job. I don't wish to go back to stock Gingerbread, and will at be on Android 4.0 and above. 3G seems to drain a lot of battery.
Be it flashing customer kernel or going to the extreme tweaks, do share your thoughts here! V30J was a good ICS rom with acceptable battery drain, but it has its own set of issues (mainly freezing randomly and not waking up). But that's my benchmark of battery life, as I got almost 10 hours with moderate usage (no wifi, no GPS, minimum brightness etc with Pimp My Rom).

Since your a local, I bet or kiasu(Singapore Attitude). Or maybe not. Anyways, The best for battery life is V30J. Or not. When I used it, its very power savvy. But take note that the performance is poor

yeah perhaps haha but for one I don't mind a sacrifice in performance as long as the rom functions and doesn't drain battery. However V30J as mentioned had its freeze issue and that is a problem that I may not be able to accept.

[Q] Is the 4x for allday-standard-use ok?

I'm a long time XDA-Reader and I want to buy a new cell phone (old phone: GalaxyS 9000i with CMix-Rom)
By design, I like the LG 4x at best. Also the price is good. It would be important to me that there are some stable, fast and enduring ROMS upcoming (also with good accu-handling).
Can I expect this in the near future for this phone? I don't need thousands of ROMS, just a good one!

The phone working very good with stock rom.
When you have root and delete some of LG Craps the 4X HD would like faster than S3. (Off my Eyes)
The best ROM in the moment is Cyanonmod 10.1 the ROM look deathly awesome and the is 10x smoother than S3 and other phone. ....
I love this wonderfully ROM and rate each other take the ROM.
Hope I was help you.

Thanks for your answer!
I'll see, if my LG 4x is unlockable --> then i will try CyanogenMod immediately.
I ordered it today -- 3-4 days delivery time.
How about the chances to get Costum-Kernels in the future. I guess, the 4x is not so interesting for developers.
But my anticipation is great.

Well actually we have a few kernels and ROMs already, we only just got a "universal" unlock so it needs time. But we have a performance kernel in alpha for stock and cm10.1, a stable version of this kernel is also nearly finished. Given time there will be plenty of stuff to play around with!

My 4x arrived yesterday!
Is there a stable (realy stable) Costom ROM I can use at the moment or do i have to wait until one comes.
On my phone there is a stock 4.0.3 ICS (3-branded, i guess).
What optimizations make sense at the moment.
I can't wait to try.

6-8 hrs moderate to heavy use.

upgrade your phone to JB first. If you want to still in stock rom, just root your phone and remove unwanted apps from LG, and your phone will the best phone on the planet
Sent from my tf101

Which apps from LG you recommend I should remove?

So, since yesterday I'm on CM 10.1 RC1 with root and bootloader unlock.
I played a lot the whole day, so my battery drained from 09 am to 09 pm from 100% to zero.
But as i saw, most of it was because of the bright o) display. Display on and I can watch the percentage-circle decrease
Question about battery: I'm not shure, if I should enable WLAN at home, because I have no limit data at HSDPA and about 3Mbit/2Mbit (down/up). My WLAN has 4Mbit/0.5Mbit (down/up) speed. So no big difference. How much can I save battery without using WLAN (1 more hour?)?
I'm satisfied with CM so far, but hope for a few more tweaks with new Kernel.

I'd like to report another experience:
Last night, i put my phone in airplane mode from 10 pm to 08 am and the battery has dropped down from 41 % to 31 %. That's about 1 % an hour.
My GalaxyS (i9000) only dropped about 3 % the night.
But I guess, thats at the moment normal with stock Kernel.

If you want all day standard use, go for S3. ICS is far better with battery in 4X but JB sucks it fast. S3 will give better daily use for low power consumption, smoothness, USB OTG, barometer etc. You can check reviews on gsm arena.

[Discussion] - Best Custom Rom / Kernel

Hello Proud user of LG Optimus 4x HD,
Now that we have '' Unlocked Bootloader '' and our beloved phone is being looked after some '' Great Developers '' let's have a look at the ''Features, Functions and Disabilites'' about all this stuff being Developed around here. This thread is open to all who want to make suggestions or express his/her experience about any Particular Rom / Kernel.
So happy Discussing.
Have a nice Day/Evening.

I'm using the latest cm rom and change from time to time between the werewolf and the ph85 kernel. Everything works fine

I am using the latest official CM10.1 Nightly build and play around it for 3 days. It is really great. Compare it with Stock LG 20B JB. I found
The pros-
1, The speed and response of UI, open up apps, web browsing and etc. improved a lot!!!
2, Less heat is generated
3, A lot better battery life.
4, A lot more control on everything.
5, Officially support FB home and it runs perfectly (You can even download it from the Play store)
6, seems it has better multi-tasking, at least it won't kill too many of the background apps (I have VLC direct running on background, I will always get killed on stock LG rom, but on CM10.1, it will still running while I am doing something else)
7, Better and more pretty UI.
The cons-
1, MHL output is not working correctly. (and it seems it will never work)
2, No custom ringer and notification sound.
3, All volume seems less loud than the stock
4, Media won't scan again while you unplug and plug the SD card back on.
5, Camera has less control and lower performance (HDR run slower that it really wait and take 3 slow shot to compose, no way to shut down the shutter sound, no ISO control and only +/-1 exposure control)
6, Too many option and control on setting, you might not have an idea what it really do....(maybe it is a pros for some ppls, haha)
It is just my opinion during these 3 days. Maybe some of them is just a bug or I just too new to this. Hope you guys don't mind. Even there is a lot of Cons, I think this ROM is very nice. Thanks. =)

Well I'm currently in the process of reverting to v10a. Call me crazy but if you're a gamer it's the fastest rom with 99% of games working great. Since then LG became obsessed with overheating and slowly degraded its performance. Now that I'm unlocked I'm going to see if it's possible to use proper clockworkmod on this rom, if it works maybe someone can port some custom kernel features. JB and cm10.1 are still great though and I plan to continue experimenting with them as more stuff is developed
Sent from my rooted P880

I have also switched a lot in this last month or so but just in between Stock, CM10,1 and Werewolf Rom.
1. For me stock has the best battery results almost used phone for 40 hours or so still with some battery left and had absolute no problems at all with the baseband issue ( I hope xtribas and others who do have it get over it as soon as possible with the help of good development).
2. CM10.1 is great work and a build of devotion from its developers almost everyday comes a new nightly with some features and tweaks. Runs very smooth and till now have had not many bugs I would say some problem with baseband wakelocks here but not in Stock which I cannot explain why.
3. Werewolf's Rom one of my fellow Countrymen is Fantastic I really appreciate his work, time and efforts. It's an awsome Rom fast, stable almost reliable like stock. It will be best Rom after Stock I guess.
I am not a Gamer so sorry to all Gamers I don't know how is the Gaming Life on this Phone (with all due respect to @non4 and others, I hope you guys get best out of this phone with the help of our Clever Developing Team.) In between I do play games but on my Laptop ( Acer Aspire V3-771G, intel i7-3610QM 2,3 GHz, 16GB RAM, 1,2 TB HDD, NVIDIA Geforce GT 650M )
Happy Discussion Guys

I'm using CM and change kernel from time to time between the werewolf and iodak.

Update: flashing clockworkmod on ICS gives the notorious security error, for it to work the ROM would have to be repacked to a flashable format like zaiben. And the eternity project kernel just got updated, based on feedback I may have to go back to JB already

After next time you revert to v10a (you seem to switch back and forth a lot ), would you mind packing up and uploading the files in /system/lib? I need them, but really would like to avoid having to flash back to v10a/h at the moment. It seems that LG's ICS builds are currently the only builds with properly working MHL and it is likely it has to do with the included tegra libraries.
I am even more interested in these files for v10h (although the relevant files may be the same), if anyone has easy access to them.

Hi there @non4 can you please explain some main differences between some of the Roms and Kernels you have tried so far, which is good and in which way like battery life, usage, and which is not so good and needs to be looked at? I ask you because I think you have switched around a lot (sorry if I am wrong) and have tested directly from some of the Great Develeopers around.
Just a small submission of your experience would be enough

v10a stock: pure speed, awful battery
v20a stock: Better than v10h, but not as fast as v10a
v20a with iodak kernel: Good battery, close to v10a performance
v20a with kholks kernel: Fastest experience but currently too buggy
CM10.1: Faster in some games, but slower in others, battery OK and some nice features
CM10.1 with werewolf kernel: Solves some of the lags at cost of battery
PACMAN: Not a gamers ROM but fun to play around wit

Have you tried the latest CM10.1 nightly? I just flashed it last night and I had no issues with Deep Sleep, Runs very Smooth and Battery Life is Good. Last night I unpluged it at round about 10:30 PM and today Morning at 9 I just lost 2% of battery so I think its not bad 0.2% overnight.
I guess I will try this:
v20a with iodak kernel: Good battery, close to v10a performance
and I am gonna try

When I see some optimization to the I/O speed which will hopefully fix the remaining stutters then I will try, I CBA with moving my stuff to the right folders and restoring all my apps . Try its a good combo! Nice core usage and performs like kholks old 3.1.10 alpha

I have used nightly and iodak's combination for couple of weeks and I am very happy with the using experience. Battery life is much better than stock and gaming is no laggish. Currently I am using Arararagi's unoffical version so I can still use LG's quicknote and Memo which are only things I want to use from the stock. thanks for Arararagi, make me love CM more. Werewolf kernel also great but I found iodak's better for me. Any way you won't regret to move to CM.

Official jb rom and ioak kernel at the moment. I like lg keyboard and the battery drain is less than cm.

Battery life without touching phone - One Day

Hi guys,
I have Stock Android 4.1.2 with Iodak V06 kernel. Lately my battery life is astonishing! One Day without touching (if, barely) a phone, so I'm amazed by Nokia Lumia 720 battery life in heavy usage (3 days minimum). I tried to look at integrated battery life usage section, but nothing major. I tried to reboot phone many times, even under-clocked phone to 1.3GHz with Conservative mode in SetCPU. Maybe you can recommend any useful, good app to track my battery life? I'm pretty smart Android user, but I just don't know why my phone last so little. My last hope - install clean V20A and do LG Backup. Maybe fresh ROM with stock kernel will help.

Install betterbatterystats and look if there are wackelocks i think it is that

Truth about this phone it won't get any better regarding battery life. Stock ROM gives best battery life in my experience. But its performance is not as good as using cm10.1.2 stable release. Iodak kernel gives quite a few options to tweak. But I don't do it cause I can't precisely understand what the tweaks are, I use the kernel with no personal mods except for OC 1.7 mhz which I'm very satisfied by its performance.
The screen on this phone is to damn sharp and bright, the main reason of battery drainage falls into the screen's technology LCD. If this screen was superamoled, battery life would probably be a whole different story. Hope you get my point.
