Best rom for battery life - Xperia Z3 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello,
I didn't use my z3c since 6 month and I would like to know which rom is the best for battery life ? I actually have slim 4.8 on LL. My personal use is Youtube, web browsing and a little bit of game.
Thank you

Very battery friendly is xperience rom - with apps amplify, greenify and wakelock detector you can have battery much better

Your experience with this ROM ? How about SOT ?

it shows 65h 30m, but this is totally unusefull
battery drain depends on phone usage, not at some "calculated" numbers
i have got xperience rom v6 witch amplify (donated) + greenify (donated) + wakelock detector.
At 9.00 a.m. i unpluged the phone from charger and now, at 8.00 p.m i´ve got still 100%.
after 3 days since plug-off still have 51% battery with this usage: few sms per day, few calls, few emails, using chrome 5-15 minutes per day (using wifi, lte not mutch)

I have LineageOS 14.1 and SOT under 5-6 hours isn't possible with heavy use so switch quickly to it

lower the cpu speed to around 640 mhz or so. it works like a charm (in my slimbean p880) and i get screen on times like 4h30m. also install pimpmyrom and tweak it to lower battery consumption
If only there were a way to make logs of what drains battery...
Oh!..wait a minute...

[Q] Battery life on CM11

Hey guys,
I have the latest nightly build of CM11on my Xperia Z. I updated as 4.3 stock was draining my battery within 3-5 hours with limited used normally by Google Play Services. I put up with it for so long I have forgot what the battery was like on it before!
At 15:23 I was at 95% Battery. At 18:02 with light use I was at 74%. It Is now 22:47 and I'm at 26% with using some games, internet browsing and downloading a few apps over 3G as well as texting a bit. Is this normal battery life for CM11? If it is are there any other ROMS which have a good battery life but also offer as much if not more features?
On Battery stats the screen is using 35% of my battery, Android system 11, Android OS 6, Google Play services 6. I installed at 18:00 Battery Reborn and it says I'm losing 1% every 4 minutes.
I tried using the conservative Governor but it seemed too choppy and don't know where to set the minimum clock to cirucmvent that, so I'm using interactive at the moment.
all help appreciated!

It all depends what you use your phone for, It's no problem to drain your battery in 3 hours while playing power hungry games. So screen on time does not say much. It highly fluctuates depending what's running on your device. On average KitKat gives you a little longer battery then lollipop
Ok
i dont have any game on my note
regular use... Whatsapp, mail...

After flashing a rom (stock or other) the phone will be hot and that can have a huge affect on battery life if you try to test it straight after that. Give it a full discharge and recharge, check to see if your mobile coverage is weak too as that can affect battery a lot no matter what rom you are on. Especially if you use apps like WhatsApp, which try to get push messages from a weak signal area.
In my case lollipop gives more screen on time , around 6 hours and 16hrs life in total .Where as the KitKat standby time is better . Really depends on usage , but 3 hours SOT only in Whatsapp and mails is pretty bad
Install better battery stats or wake lock detector , de-bloat unwanted system apps and flash a custom kernel and tweak CPU profiles .. I am sure u will churn out 5+hrs SOT after fine tuning . Good luck !
On my lollipop before i had only 3 hours screen time and my battery will be under 20% after 9 hours usage. Now i downgraded to kitkat, as you can see i got a suberb battery life. Playing CoC, facebook, viber, emails, calls, and browser. And my phone was only charged at 90% when i unplugged it. Im in the office most of the time, cant play on the phone often

			
				
Have you tried turning off the features of your phone that you don't use like Bluetooth, GPS, Wi-Fi connectivity and the mobile data usage.

Standby drain

When you sleep, does your phone sleep, or does it stay up all night and crunch 1s and 0s? Rate this thread to express how you deem the speed at which the LG Nexus 5X's battery drains under standby conditions. A higher rating indicates that when the phone is not in use, the battery drains minimally.
Then, drop a comment if you have anything to add!
Excellent with doze.
I left the phone on (idle) when I go to sleep at night.
After 7-8 hours overnight, the battery dropped by about 4-5%
that's about 1% drain per 1.5-2 hours.
Mine was 4-5% overnight then I turned off background wifi scanning and its now 2-3%
Thanks to unmodified doze in Android N standby time is pretty great
With 4G data on, standby drain is pretty high for me
0-1 % over night. Mostly 0%
On 2G losing 0,2 to 0,6 % per hour.
With wifi always ON and active gmail, hangout and facebook messenger Lite (these app are selected not to use battery optimisation) + ambient display + Naptime (to activate Doze immediately) I have around 1,2%/h over night
(ABCrom + flash kernel + Drunksauce profile)
.2-.3 % per hour
Pure Nexus, Flash kernel, Drunksauce
I don't understand why some are proud to lose 5% during night, before with set cpu, powernap and amplify and greenify my phone lose 0% during night...
I don't test these apps because I root it on Android 7 (Xposed is not available yet).
If someone could do a "tutorial" or tweaks to do that it would be awesome.
Link for Android 6 : https://forum.xda-developers.com/android/general/guide-extreme-battery-life-t3095884
5x with Pure Nexus ROM, Jolla Kernel, Greenify (root) with Aggressive Doze, and I get about 5-6% drain over the night.
I'm high because DT2W, and I have really crappy signal at my house.
This phone can lose 15-18% of charge overnight. Pretty shameful. I have been observing something similar with other Android devices recently.
15-18% overnight?
Try 80% in 5 hours ... **** this phone

Do you guys use Greenify on Android 7.1 or just leave it to doze?

Don't use Greenify but I'm on different ROM and kernel. Been on Dirty Unicorns with Franco kernel. Standby drain is comparable if not better but active drain has improved.
anyone with resurrection rom with good battery drain rate? I am not sure if I should switch to PureNexus.

Horrible battery life

I have read awesome stuff about this device's battery life and SOT, but I barely get 3.5 to 4 hours of SOT. Does anyone have a possible solution? This is ironic considering my previous crappy lenovo phone would give me 6-7 hours of SOT. Any battery saving kernel or ROM would also be appreciated, as I have unlocked bootloader and am running stock oos (latest open beta) rooted with magisk. Please advice, as if this is a hardware problem then I will return it ASAP.
Unfortunately, this thread has been made many times. No matter how specific your case is you have to analyze your usage.
But, if you need you can make yourself a quick checklist.
Whats apps are installed?
What do you do with your phone?
How many things do you sync?
How often do you game?
Do you have social media apps installed? Instagram, facebook, snapchat etc
What browser do you use?
And where did you read 7 hours SoT?
The reason being for people posting that they get 7-8 hours SoT is because those people use their phone all the time. If you look at their screenshots their idle time is non existent. With my phone that i've done a custom debloating and removed system apps that are worthless battery hogs, I get about 5 hours SoT. I leave my phone idle a lot. Idle still drains battery. If you use your phone on and off through the day, 5 hours SoT is really good. Thats what you should expect. If you get 3-4 hours SoT with normal usage patterns then you have an issue. Id say for every hour of idle time expect to lose perhaps 5 minutes of SoT. Your phone is technically a computer, its doing things constantly so it is never truly idle.
Go OOS 3.5.4. Greenify all apps Plus Play services, have xposed and install amplify to control wakelocks. Use L Speed, Keep data/wifi on only when using.
Why are you guys so obsessed with SoT? I usually get 4-5 hours with one day and half usage and at least 2 hours of Bluetooth + Spotify. As previously stated, the battery life varies on usage. Just take a look on possible wake locks if battery stats are weird. Stop focus on trying to beat the SoT world record and actually start to enjoy your phone as the beast it is
Just use Betterbatterystats and u will find the culprit.

3.5 hours is below average so there is some app which is draining your battery but around 4.5 hours / 5.5 hours sot is normal and average battery life, if you see those people which post pics with over 8 hours of sot they are lying and are faking the results, trust me so dont bother with it..
Install betterybatterystats and see which app is draining ur battery and unistall it or use greenify on it
