I bought one plus 3t because of the amazing specs nd the oos but os dissapointed me on the battery life so i thought of flashing a custom rom. I would like to know your thoughts too. custom rom or OOS?
I'm on official RR and I get 6-7 hours SOT, it also has a built in wakelock blocker. If you want to stay on OOS then try Franco kernel.
OOS that comes with 1+3T's have some error in the code, after a few days/weeks of use people experience insane battery drains and overheating, just do a factory reset (first with keeping all your data, if doesn't work, do a full wipe).
But since unlocking, rooting, installing a custom recovery and ROM doesn't ruin your warranty, if you have some time on your hands, why not try LOS, RR, or some other ROM? If you don't like them, you can always go back to OOS.
I'm running OOS Open Beta 4 right now and I experience a good battery life. It was much worse before.
Franco kernel and OOS beta 4 7.1.1
Battery life has drastically improved. I'd clock out at 3.5-4 hours SOT before on regular to medium usage. Now? I'm closing in at 6 hours with fairly normal to heavy use. Varies day to day. This is probably the best update out there of OOS. Before I didn't upgrade from Marshmallow and remained on the stock v3.5.4 OOS which came with the phone. I jumped to Nougat but it was disappointing not to mention the bugs. Been using the new Beta 4 released three days ago with Franco Kernel. Simply put it's amazing! The last update blocked out my msgs. This doesn't.
Happy flashing!

As you all know with the Nougat update the battery life has become terrible for most of the users. So I'm making this thread so that we could list ROMs that still give that original battery life before the Nougat update. Both Marshmallow and Nougat ROMs are welcome. GO!

Already discussed here
Stock oos (beta also) and Franco kernel
My battery life with oos non beta was better with flash kernel instead of franco kernel, device also felt faster.
Im currently on LOS (Tugapower) and battery life is decent as well.
But from what i heard so far it seems that CM13 was best for battery, but i have no personal experience with that on OPO3T
OOS ROM + blu spark kernel

Agreed.
I finally found a rom+kernel combo that works the best for me. FreedomOS-CE-2.8 + blu spark 3.18.31-blu_spark-OOS (r112)

My batterylife is great, 5-6 hours SOT and 24 hrs. off the charger. BTW the best roms for stellar battery life are the ones that have no user installed apps, disable auto-sync, screen brightness set on 10% and only use wifi connections But then why would you buy a smartphone?

Do you have gapps installed and are you on 3g/4G or just WIFI ?
who's going call this terrible battery life in nugget?
that's beta6+franko23 with 4g all the time
I get nothing similar to these results. I've got freedom OS latest beta 6 and bluspark 125 and I can barely get 5 hours of SOT even with brightness really low and only on WiFi
Stock OOS 4.1.3 with franco kernel.
2 hours SOT
22 hours up time
61% remaining
4g only, no Wifi
I am using 3 uk 4g I live in London
I got the same problem , one plus 3t tried all ROMs all kernels , I bought franko kernel app from market and ex kernel , so I got the pro version, I can't get more then 3 hours I don't know if is my device or my battery, I tried a tutorial to disable all Google sync's and Google now and more services , I don't know what to try , I think the battery is not equal made from this Chinese company,
My nexus 6 is non rooted latest firmware 7.1.1 latest security patch I got 3.20 hours screen on time, so I am wondering where is that power efficiency of Snapdragon 821 processor?
Next time I will not buy anymore that (flagship ) device
Also super big screen burn
For £120 I can get Moto g plus dual SIM with Snapdragon 625 super power efficiency I can get 6 hours screen on time , also dual SIM .
Flagship killer

I'm on 3 in the UK also and can easily get 5-6hours SOT. Sounds like therea something wrong with your phone.

Perhaps LineAge from sultanxda is a good choice. I heard, that it has great battery life. Still testing, seems good.
It seems that battery life is inconsistent. Maybe they were shipping with different battery units, different brand, factory or something? For ma total max is 5h SoT in 20-24h.
Sultan FTW!!!!
Hi, i am looking for any rom which offers minimum of 4-5h sot and support OMS, now i have AEX aosp i really like that rom but the battery is so rubbish. (about 3h sot) I had stock oos 4.1.6 i really enjoy it but it does not support fully oms... Any suggestions?
Please don't tell me that u got 6-7h sot but u don't use any social media apps, no one buy's a phone with snap821 and use messenger lite etc...

What has the processor to do with social media apps?
Its a fact that apps like facebook drain a lot of battery. As long as you use them that will happen on every rom.
4h SOT is like my worst case scenario on latest freedomOS CE. Mostly like 5-6 SOT.
But this highly is dependent of your personal usage (screen brightness, auto sync and ofc battery hungry apps like facebook).
I for example use "Friendly" for facebook which is way more battery friendly and has same features and even messenger inside.
noone can recommend you any ROM and say with this ROM you will have X hours of SOT. So thread title is kinda obsolete.

Since its OOS based, no. But you still can use special OOS substratum modules like Ozone, which is pretty great and feature rich.
For OMS you can use pretty much every non OOS based ROM. All big ones have it: RR, DU, AOSPA.
I tried these 3 also but always went back to freedomOS.
Apart from that you can use custom kernels like bluspark which might save some juice. Available for OOS based and custom Roms (lineage based).

I had the best battery life on freedomOS CE + bluspark kernel so far.
If you can live without OMS i'd recommend FreedomOS.
I had higher idle drain on AOSPA and a lot other users also reported that in the thread, but that was in early stage of the rom. I dont know how many and what updates they released since then. But AOSPA seems like the only real OOS alternative to me since its great camera.
I guess you can give AOSPA a try. If it doesnt suits you, go for FreedomOS CE (has touch latency improvements and other nice features which stable doesnt have) + custom kernel like bluspark or franco.
I know you want OMS but will talk about battery life
I recommend flashing custom OxygenOs rom like freedomOS or xXx No limits with bluspark kernel and you can easily achieve 5 hours SOT if you installed AKT profile

Thank's for time, im making backup now and flashing AOSPA If im not gonna by happy, i will go for FreedomOS CE
Use EX kernel with AKT kernel settings you can can get 7-8 hours with ease.
Getting 6 - 7 hours just using stock!

Just to let you know, there was a big update on AOSPA which seems to have fixed many problems.
Getting 9 hours using RR - Zenity with EXK. Not once but every day.. and a battery backup of 44-48 hours minimum.

Hi there,
I've got an OnePlus 3t the last week and i'm very happy so far.
My previous phone was the HTC One M8 and i decided to buy a new phone caused by it's very poor battery performance.
I tried OxygenOS first, did all OTA updates to the latest version and unlocked bootloader, flashed root and so on.
OxygenOS is a great rom compared to other OEM roms.
But there are still some things missing, i really want to use.
So i decided to go back to LineageOS.
Everything works fine except the battery life.
I'v read a thread about this in the oneplus forums with a very good battery life on LineageOS, even better than stock.
But where are the magic 8h+ dot?
The screenshots were taken from nougat, i'm running oreo.
Is that the big deal?
On my m8, battery life didn't change on 14.1 to 15.1
What is your experience?
I've had no Battery issues on LOS 14.1 or 15.1. I had nasty drain on OOS Oreo builds, which is why i switched.

Mhhm very interesting.
Thank you for your feedback
give it some time , must be calibrating. mine was draining pretty fast to at start now it's good again and it's definitely better than OOS in term of battery performance but you will experience lag some times which wasn't case in OOS
Tried some oreo roms and went because of the battery back to nougat. Best SOT I had with sultanized RR from Droidfreak. The best: it is still updated because of sultans and RR's work on Nougat.
Thread: https://forum.xda-developers.com/on...jul-10-unofficial-resurrection-remix-t3634278
(best with stock kernel)
So switched over finally to oreo 2 months ago on OB. Flashed every oos kernel and battery life just seems to suck compared to nougat. Sot has dropped significantly and idle drain is through the roof. I was getting 0.1-0.2%/hr idle drain on nougat and over 8 hours sot every day on nougat, happened to be running the Xceed kernel as well. Is it just me or does everyone seem to have this issue? Because, to be honest, a decrease from at least 8 hours sot to 4 hours is making me say f* the new awesome features and go back to nougat and get my battery life and performance back.
What kernel are you using ?
I have used boffela and Render zenith both gives me good battery backup and standby .. currently on Render zenith as it has EAS and providing me with amazing battery backup .. Just flash it and give some time like 2 days .you can see the difference... Custom roms most of them I have tried but not satisfied with the battery backup so moved to open beta

Currently on Renderzenith as well. So far the best for battery life under my usage. I know it differs from person to person but a decrease by half is not something I can consider an improvement.

After testing many custom ROMs, my two favourites are Havoc OS and Pixel Experience. As these tend to be the most popular for users of mi 8 custom ROMs, I would like to ask the community which one has best stability, battery life and ram management. I do not use my phone for gaming so gaming performance is not really a concern.
I've recently down the rounds on the latest android 10 ROMs.
For me I preferred pixel experience out the 2 you have stated, seemed more stable and more importantly for me android auto was working where as it doesn't currently in havoc. Havoc does have more customisations though.
Havoc has just released an update which I'm yet to try, but for the time being I'm back to the latest Xiaomi EU ROM weekly, as it's rock solid. I will give the aosp builds a couple of months and to get android 10 stable and try them again.
This is all based on my experience / phone usage, so what works for me, may not be right for you

For me xiaomi eu was brilliant, but regarding battery life (which is ageing in my unit - it's from 09.2018), eu was not giving me enough to survive without recharging. On Aosp it's still 30% when only 15% on eu. I use EvoX currently, as it has least issues and glitches, and it's the only rom apart from Eu where all my banking apps work. I think you can only find the answer between your two Roms, if you find someone who switch between them after at least few days of usage.
Well, I'm using Havoc and it seems very nice. I prefer it to Pixel Experience because you can customize every single thing, but both are good. Very good battery life, about 7h screen on time. If you're looking for a MIUI Based rom with a good battery life, I recommend RevOS MIUI, it will surprise you.
