[Q] Good battery ROM

Hello people,
first of all I want to say that I know there are more questions like this one, but I couldn't find an up-to date one.
I'd prefer an ICS or later rom since.. well the GB roms are quite outdated, but if you know a rom which offers a great battery life don't hesitate to tell about it.
I'm corrently using CM10 unofficial from Pengus77:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2058231
Here is a screenshot of my current battery life with light use (no data, little wifi for whatsapp and sometimes checking my timetable screenshot) :

Please let me know if you know a very battery-friendly rom.
Edit:
And it's not like I have an ancient battery or something ( +- half a year old).

Hello!
I'm using Paranoid Android and I like it a lot. Battery life is really great. I'm using my phone from morning till the night and almost always battery last long enough. I'm using it for surfing, listening music, phone calls, messages so I think that this is really nice rom.

AW: [Q] Good battery ROM
Got to confirm that! Using PA with Kowalski kernel 113, OC @ 1,3 GHz some small UV and a great app as recommended by pengus and tonyp which is greenify! Take a look at it

Wise choice.
Note: Don't judge the battery too fast. Wait till it have done a few cycle charges (meaning: plug charger in at a low battery percentage, keep it charching till its 100% - repeat few times.).

Yes, I will (although a lot of people say you should only charge to 80/90% to not overcharge your battery)
What governor are you all using btw? just normal interactive?
Update: installed the rom, all my apps, filled in my preferences/personal customisation etc. and I lost about 25%
so everything seems to go quite well with this rom.
Just one question:
what is a good alternate theme instead of the xperia one?

Default governor.
I'm using adw

Well, here are the results of the PA rom:
As you can see the battery life is MUUUCH better. This is at almost the same usage as seen on the other screenshot so It's a fair comparison.
Thank you for informing me about this great rom and as a token of my esteem I'll give you all a :good:.

[Q] feel like returning after battery life ?

Anyone felt like returning this phones after a week cause of battery life?
Im not cause its not that bad and maybe a custom ROM may be able to work on that just looking for other people's experience and what they think thanks!

It's useable with a few temp.. tweaks .
The bottom line is this all occurs with lollipop in general S5 was great on kitkat ...until 5.0
It's not the phone it's features and O.S
People are disabling Volte and WiFi calling it helps a lot
I wouldn't return it over battery life yet the camera is way to good
Give it time We get roms soon and mods it's I take back everything +I said
Samsung needs to take back every s6 and Rethink there whole O.S
For a 750$ flag ship release its so buggy it's hopeless .
Camera is only worthwhile feature

Do one factory reset and set up phone again and disable VOLTE FOR NOW under Phone /More .
Cycle the battery meaning charge filly and let it fully drain as far as you can before recharging again .Another words don't fully charge it when it hits 40%
This is true the battery's learn a drain span
I'f you recharge anything above 10% it isn't gonna learn it's max capacity Takes like a week.
The main fix is Volte disable and WiFi calling
Sent from my SM-G920T using XDA Free mobile app

i turned off volte i dont really see the need for it i mean its a phone call why do you need such high speeds lol my phone is at 2 percent waiting for it to die lol thanks

If it wasn't for the rapid quick charge I probably would have
returned it but the fact that I can top off in a half an hour it's really not a problem getting through the day.

I think it has something to do that the phone is not going to deep sleep, i rooted mine and flashed a custom kernel, now it does deep sleep and battery is ok now

While battery life isn't as good as some phones I've used recently I still got 5hrs SOT yesterday. Not bad at all.

That is pretty good for this phone ....
Has anyone tried going into Developer Options }Limit Back
Ground Processes to 4 ?
I wonder if this barely slows the Phone for most things but might give an additional ( wild guess 10% to 25%) Battery Life.
I don't have one but if this works....be easier for me to decide.
I may put this idea in a separate Thread.

Yea I can't complain about battery life. The screen is so ridiculous I end up using the phone for no reason, so my usage at least for now since it's new, isn't my normal usage.

Anyone?

Wondering if anyone is working on a new rom now the sources have been released.

It does not seem like it. I have been looking a lot around the net. I am considering selling mine.

I already built some ROMs for other phones and tablets but you guys need to understand that this is not something that is done in a day !
With my ******* connection I am not even done with the download of the sources ! Then you need to make some adjustments, sync, gather all the sources and finally build which is a really heavy process and right now since I need my computer to work, I can't let him build and compile.
I'll definitely build some ROM for this device since I want to try new ROMs but I need more time

That sounds encouraging. Even if the performance were increased (less battery drain) on the existing Mokee and CM 12.1 Roms, we would be in a better place. I am currently on Mokee 14/03 and the battery drain makes it very difficult to use out and about.

Hi ectoplasma22, I hope you could build a nice rom for this phone, because the smartphone deserves it! Can you say me if you have found some bugs on the Mokee one? Is all working on it? I'm now on miui europe stable and the rom is good but I see some limitation of the Miui rom wich are a little annoying like errors converting user app in system app system and many, but however I found how to switch the 2k dispay resolution to 1080 and the battery life increased +30%, also if I'm getting error writing screenshots on sdcard and some apps see only a small area to work, and the cursor for those apps is blocked in a small space, like the app Nice Eyes which can't be placed on the eyes. Do you know a secure way to change resolution without get anu bugs?

Lots of comments in the Mokee thread here on battery drain. http://en.miui.com/thread-228046-1-1.html
Great that it's working for you, but mine is way worse than miui for drain. Seems to be related to min cpu frequency being high during idle.
I also notice that the cm 12.1 thread has a known issue on needing to have two sims inserted and using the second for lte if you want to use lte. http://en.miui.com/thread-234339-1-1.html. I'm not sure if this impacts Mokee too or if related to battery drain (I have one sim only in sim 2). But my drain is a lot better when aeroplane mode is on.

Android 6 coming from nian, only sound is bugged..

I'm glad I asked now, things seem to happening slowly, Mokee is ok battery no great but passable, I needed to enter APN manually as some of the fields were missing causing crazy issues.

Note 4 still loved?

I have an ota update available.
Probably just modem and bootloader as usual.
600mb though.........

Probably the BlueBorne fix. It took really long to get it released...
Sent from my [device_name] using XDA-Developers Legacy app

i'm still rocking 5.1.1 stock/no root. i don't know if i can trust that these updates to our Note 4 are actually improving it. I feel like it's deoptimization. And worse of all, it's not guaranteed you can downgrade successfully

I still love my Note Four and just had it refurbished!

Prefer my old note 3 to the 4.
they took out to many voice commands etc
cannot control the music player with voice
4 has better hardware for sure but they just took away to many good things
update was modem/bootloader afaics.
security patch is aug2017 so that hasn't been updated
but it seems at least my phone does not have the blueborne vulnerability after checking with the Armis app.

Definitely loved, one more time, in OTA form (217Mb worth of it)

I am still rocking the N910C as my daily driver. I love the fact that I could swap out the battery in seconds and not have to lug around a heavy powerbank to keep it charged.

Don't update if you use an extended battery. Mine won't recognise the battery as extended after the update, even after six complete charge cycles draining to empty and charging to full.

update
got yesterday software (230MB) update

I have N910C since early 2015,
I bought LG G4 after the Note .. after 2 months I sold it, you can't compare any screen with the Note 4 gorgeous screen.
Tried my luck with iPhone 6s Plus, sold it .. reason ? cuz it's piece of sh*t.
Another try with S7 edge, I did not like the curved screen also I missed the S Pen and the replaceable battery [ I have 5 batteries one of them 10,000 mAh].
In my opinion, the note 4 is the most completed phone made ever even it's 4 years old.
I'm using SimpleRom which is the lightest rom made for N910C, day to day usage you will not notice any speed different between the note 4 and newer flagship.

Same here.
I just got an update after a long time, but with no security updates. Weirdly, I've seen same variants as the German has a October update, whereas I keep having the August update.
https://samsung-firmware.org/model/SM-N910F/region/DBT/
And despite having almost 3 months the update, I got it yesterday.
Any further information about this upgrade?

not good, like average 3- 3.5 hours? I'm on 6.0.1 now because my phone updated by itself after all this time. At first, it gave me a big battery boost, but now it feels lightly better than when i was on 5.1.1. But, some apps on 6.0.1 do feel a bit slower i find. i could always downgrade back, as i'm not on the latest 6.0.1

Screen on time

It's amazing how much we actually use our phones in a given day, especially when we watch "videos"! Rate this thread to express how many hours of screen-on time you can get on the Xiaomi Redmi Note 6 Pro before depleting the battery.
Then, drop a comment if you have anything to add!

12h 34' from 100% to 1%

Its fully stock Running the latest Miui update 10.2.2.0
Also global version. Does it drain more when phone is in idle? If so maybe faulty fingerprint reader keeping phone awake? I also use 3g always instead of 4g and nova launcher aswell.
Edit:I also can't know what's causing battery drain issue without seeing battery graph in settings

I don't really know I'm new to Xiaomi phones and I got my note 6 pro like 2 weeks ago but in my opinion custom roms can get better battery life stock but I'm not sure
Forgot say my phone's bootloader is locked at the moment
