Where are you getting the best battery life?
seriously?

My thoughts exactly. The radio and ROM you're running will also play a part, especially since some of those kernels aren't compatible with Froyo.

Hey guys, just wondering what the best Gingerbread ROM is for the HD2.
Thanks.
The one you prefer, after trying all that is available.

Well is there one that stands out above the rest or anything?
I've only found 2 Gingerbread ROMs on here so far.

Then try them and see which one you prefer
i don't know why so much people are asking for the "best" rom, instead of testing them by themself. tastes are different and in case of gingerbread you don't have much options...
i love mdj's gingerbread 1.8a - everything works with awesome speed.

hows your battery life? I've tried ALL of the froyo nands. I've been wanting to switch over to gingerbread but I'm waiting until the major bugs get ironed out. Battery life being the biggest one.

you complain about battery life on ginger bread? for me gingerbread has by far the best battery life. hd roms and builds drained my battery very fast - especially when i'm using the phone a lot. i just flashed 1.8a some hours ago (used 1.5 some time ago), so i can't tell you much about total drain in hours. but from what current widget says, standby drain is 3-4ma.

I'm not complaining about gingerbreads battery life. I was just asking. I haven't run it yet. I've heard that battery life is terrible on it.
I'm using TopiaHD nand (2.2.1) and getting about 2mA standby
As well another concern of mine is TMOUS mms. I do a lot of picture messaging and the blurry MMS kills me. TopiaHD has perfect TMOUS mms.
So with battery life not being terrible on 2.3......last thing is the MMS. Is there any word on that yet?
don't feel attacked by my words. my english isn't good enough to express exactly what i want to
well can't tell you much about mms, since i'm not using it. if you get 2ma on a hd build you should stick with it. i got 3-4ma in standby on gingerbread, compared to hd builds i used before with 5-7ma standby it's a hugh improvement. especially as i said before, it lasts much longer while playing around!
Can the Froyo builds by Parad0XUA or dan1j3l be put on NAND?

you should ask the devs of course.
I'll get on that, also what's the main difference between Froyo and Gingerbread?

Hi there. There seems to be a number of tweaked ROM's for the Aria and unfortunately, I'm not tech savvy enough to understand the different kernels. From your personal experience, which ROM gave good battery life on the Aria?
I'm currently running CM7.0.0 and usually gets a day with normal usage. I'm willing to drop down to froyo if it means more battery life. Any input would be awesome.
if you use setcpu just flash my kernel as it has lower cpu speeds and no need for a screen off profile

Can you flash the kernel on any ROM? Do you lose any data? SetCPU bottoms out at 246 for me right now, but I know I've seen others here at lower. I'm running FR008.

Just because it's gingerbread doesn't make it awesome. Still has its downsides. 2.2.2 and fr008 have been so refined its stupid. I get the best battery life out of those. Setcpu with 2.2.2 gives me a warm sensation.

CM7's battery life, when the GPS libraries aren't forcing the CPU to 100%, is good. A day or so. Maybe more.
2.2.2 is a little over a day on average, and CM6.1.1 can go up to as much as two days. So CM6 is the winner with battery life. But it's Froyo.
I'm getting two days with moderate usage with FR008...

By 2.2.2 do you mean Gene Poole's hfr003b? Do I just flash that as a ROM or are there other kernel or settings things I need to flash? There seems to be a lot of zips on his post. Sorry for my noobness

Flashing the ROM is enough. It comes with a kernel that will let you overclock only while you're using SetCPU. If you don't use that app it will run like a stock kernel and will give you great battery life. That's my choice and I'm happy with it.
Cool. Thanks everyone.
I was wondering if there was a rom that really is known for having the best batery life ?
Thanks.

No there is not, it's subjective to the user and what is installed. As every user installs different applications and has different habits there really isn't a best battery Rom.
Stock with tweaks is probably what I would say. No limits. Which is what i use, but again that depends.

You should read at https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-5/review there are threads for screen on time, light use endurance and standby drain. There are lots of posts with roms.
first priority good battery life
what do you think, wich better, and why?
thanks for your time

Or is it best to just stick with stock kernel?
I'm on elemental kernel right now and honestly I feel I had better standby and all around better battery on stock.

You flash to stock boot image and that flashes the stock kernel.

Will it wipe the phone and where can I find it? Also can I flash it through twrp or Exkernal?

You can flash through exkm in tools. A 9.0.7 rooted stock boot.img is in the forum somewhere. It will not wipe anything

I tried it and had very high standby drain with it. What is the point of a Kernel if not for better battery life? LOL
Battery life is subjective to personal usage if someone gets 10hrs sot + 1 day of standby doesn't mean you will get it, Best advice is to try different stuff and see which suits your needs.

But what do you mean by which one suits your needs? If a kernel has a good battery drain, everyone will appreciate it. Also are custom ROMS worth it these days?

I meant personal needs not every kernel is built with battery in mind some are performance others are just generic code compile with latest GCC and disable warnings... Not worth wasting time with but try them for yourself and see which you like best. Yes roms are worth it if the dev is optimizing for our SoC and not just cherry picking random sh!t.

Nice! Can't wait.. every Dev buddy I know has this phone now, so Its about to go off
And to the one dude, yes try a few, and for at least a couple days each to get a good feel.

Battery life is pretty subjective to personal use as previously mentioned, but i think there is another option in town. The Oneplus 6t MC Edition charger is the solution. I needed proof and YouTube got me the evidence. Check out the video by Dave Lee on Youtube. He does a test on it.
I second Smurf Kernel.
On average I get about 10 hours screen time over 2 or 3 days before I need to charge my phone again.
