Hi guys. i have tried most of the roms in this forum. and i lost my conclusions about the roms but i want to know your opinions. which rom is best battery friendly for you ? please tell me your governor + scheduler and also the rom and the kernel. i really need it.
for me the best is cm11 actually. my battery lasts for about 50 hours with 3g, phone and sms. of course if i play w´the whole day it lasts only about 24 hours.

Do you use Maclaws cm 11?
Since i flashed the 0830 update it had huge battery issues, back on 0829 it doesn't charge to 100%
Maclaw is only half way stable imo :/

try slimKAT by Android-Andi - fast, stable, battery-friendly AND only weekly updates and NO F2FS, EXT4 is much more better...

Comig from Novafusion: I will have to formate to ext4. I do this by formating in the twrp, right?
And atm i am using twrp from novafusion for obvious reasons, to do a switch I'll get Phil's Recovery of just Android-Andis TWRP?
Thanks for every piece of advice!!

THIS IS URGENT
I'm in dire need of help, this is for my gf's phone,
It all started when she was suffering with lack of space on her phone, so I tought well, AOSP roms occupy less space so I went and installed a Maclaw's rom, the one with CM10.2, she says it phone have a battery life of 1 to 3 hours with this rom, so I tried a CM11 rom and she now has a decent battery life but with constant reboots.
The thing is she is going on a 20 day trip tomorrow with her family and I wanna give her something stable with a good battery life, I dont care if its AOSP or stock based actually, I just want something stable until she gets back and I can deal with that situation. If its an AOSP based better, but I need a stable one with a good batery life, something that wont leave her hanging by a thread when she is on the road, please help!

CM 10.2 and CM 11 are working flawlessly and completely bug-free. You shouldn't get any reboots nor a poor battery life. I'm getting about 12-14 hours of intense use with kitkat.
Slimrom is not so optimized as cm 11, which is actually the last and more up-to-date rom that maclaw realeased. Try again. Are you following all the steps? Try a clean install, format system, data, cache, and dalvik-cache. Or you could just simply flash odin. Tell us how it went later

for this drop, try to calibrate your battery and try a clean install maybe as well.
But battery life in cyanogenmod is really bad. even with no drops, you get about 3 hours screen one time while on stock rom 5 hours...

i already done every single word you tell ( calibration and clean install ) but the same .
cm11 with my usage the battery life touches 7 hours (not usual but normal is 5 or 6 hours)
no drain on pimped kernel but video is not working :/
also on greatdev no drain but random reboots

hm... i used this kernel all the time on cm11: http://forum.xda-developers.com/xperia-z1/orig-development/cm-x-honami-v1-t2951201 it has dt2w implemented, thats a cool feature also, had no battery drain but battery life for me was not as good as stock sony, no matter which kernel....
for me the best battery life had the FXP builds cause of their kernel... maybe try that or just flash the kernel from the fxp builds
or maybe try cm12 nightlies, they are almost usable:9 with calling camera and so on, just have a look at my thread for cm12: http://forum.xda-developers.com/xperia-z1/general/rom-official-cyanogenmod-12-nightlies-t3007118
i will try the kernel you suggest now ( [CM] X-Honami v1 ) on the latest cm11 build 20150111
i hope it will work fine with no random reboots or video playback problems
also tested fxp kernel from last build but the same drain too ( i think it is the same as cm kernel )
i tested cm12 already nightly official but slow charging problem (5 hours from 0 to 100 without touching the phone ) and no xposed also system ui restart after boot
also i want to ask you about your settings on fauxsound app to fix the low mic problem
thanks again for your fast reply

I got a C6903.
My installation method almost as described in the wiki
Get CM11 M12 from their website
Unlock bootloader
Flash kernel (including recovery)
Full wipe (additionally i freshly formatted /data and /system including my external sdcard)
Installed ROM
I might not be the ideal reference though, since I run without gapps. No idea how much battery they eat.
Maybe try betterbatterystats (also for free here)
I do have a problem where it tells me the AndroidOS is using a lot of CPU time, but that is just a statistics error, it does not actually drain battery. (weird)
Having almost 4h SOT when using it for 2 days, with listening to music a lot. It was the same for me with the stock rom.

all fine till 15% drops to 0 on 10 minutes
i dont have that problem with sony stock based roms
the problem maybe from the model,gapps or kernel - btw iam trying new kernel one now seems fine and no drain but less about 1 hour on battery life ( max is 6 hours now )
Hi there.
I been spending several hours reading user's opinions about several roms for the xsp.
I saw plenty of unofficial roms based on cyanogenmod official roms. And the question that pops into my mind it's.
Why so many mods? People doesn't like the official releases?
Also I been reading that 5.1 roms are laggy, and in a custom rom i'm looking for stability and performance.
Maybe I should go for and official cyanogenmod 11 rom?
Maybe for a stock based rom?
What do you think?
Hello.
Yes, there is a lot of rom for SP. But just a few work as it supposed to.
Lollipop it is in his nightly stage, though is very stable and the most recent apps, you will be able to use.
There is too a recent patch for security, we should take in consideration, Im using myself as a daily driver without problems, nevertheless still have some minor bugs, but nothing that cant make you wish to throw your SP on wall
If you want to test and see how looks like, I would recommend Sabermod Unofficial Or CM 12.1 Official Nightly
cm12.1+ addons imo cuz it's my second full month on it and it never failed me ....no problems for me and great performance

battery is good too yep
Go for CyanogenMod 12.1 nightlies with addons...Its Best for lollipop based ROMs.
You can try unofficial CM13 also if you can use the phone without camera. Battery life and performance of CM13 is far better than cm 12.1.
To be honest, is a matter of usage and preference. For me it was working fine but my phone got way too hot for my taste, but the deal breaker was that no matter what lolipop ROM I used facebook HD playback was choppy as hell. I know that it sounds silly but that's something that I need. None of these issues exist on stock, of course (C5306 - 1.205)
I think the Sabermod unofficial takes the lead on cm12.1 ... Great battery and butter smooth. I think it' s the for performance and battery !
I use official CM11 slimmed by me, without gapps, disabled LogCat, little modified build.prop + WilliamsPLUS and I'm really happy ; p
which 5.1 rom has fewer lag and more batterylife?
@beodo
A sea of roms but many of them are discontinued or not updated, so first check that one.
As fellow members said CyanogenMod 12.1 Unofficial SaberMod with add ons is the best right now for me as well, very fast, really fluid,stable and good battery life, in is some parts is even better than the latest official stock rom.
I m using this rom for over a month and i love it.
If you need even better battery life you could use Helium kernel (just dirty flash at recovery) and enable conservative governor, if you would like to take it further you can also install xposed framework which unlocks you much more features like power saving better experience, extra customization and more.
All of the above are continuously updated and supported by our great developers too :good:

Finally I followed your advice and it works like a charm, thank you!
i ask about which is the best rom from both ? specifically for battery
my using is : facebook and whatsapp .
battery life:cm13>los 14.1
smooth:los 14.1>>>cm13
I used sultan cm13 last week without problems ..shifted to nougat & flashed sultan cm13 again. Everything works gr8 but when I share photos through WhatsApp the device restarts . Can anyone provide the firmware link (not the 1.4 GB)
Specifically for "Battery" ? Use stock ROM.
I installed both tried both, If you are looking for battery , more specifically screen on time, then go for official OS. Official Nougat 4.1.3 gives me 5-8 hours screen on time, depending on use. Sultan ROM lineage 14.1 sometimes heats up, battery backup seems 4-6 hours merely.

Must be something you're doing wrong. I've got as high as 10 hours SOT, and definitely over 6 hours "all the time". I have literally stopped using custom roms in the long run since I experienced OOS. Yes I hop on to different roms to test, but so far nothing beats OOS in terms of battery life, smoothness and definitely no bugs.
About sultan rom, dude, I don't know when the hype will finally be laid to rest. I have no clue if the fanboys ever actually "'compared" it extensively. I've done extensive tests long time back with my OnePlus one, and all I found that it's just a plain old hype, made a big comment in boeffla kernel thread back in the OPO days and even Andi agrees to the hype. Haven't tested lately, so it will be unfair if I judge on how good or bad the ROM is for OP3T, but I sure know what to expect. Get down of the hype train, test for yourself in different usage patterns. SOT isn't everything of course. Your usage determines it.
