Hey! I am currently running 7.1.1 on my rooted OP5 but I am not satisfied with the battery life... is there any rom that sagnifically improves the battery life of the oneplus 5?
You can try RR unofficial with Blu Spark Kernel. It has an fully working OOS Stock Cam and comes with YouTube Adaway and background player. Also i get 9 hours SOT with the default kernel profile and no heavy multitasking. Or wait for an unreleased ROM, can't say the name yet, cause it's in an Testing Phase.:highfive:
What kind of battery life are you currently getting? Are you running stock OOS with the stock kernel? Switching to a custom ROM to improve battery life seems extreme if you haven't explored any options on your current ROM to improve battery life first. Are you trying to improve SOT? Reduce idle drain? Both?

Yeah, install EX kernel, significantly under-volt and under-frequency it, and install one of these super aggressive EX profiles that put half your cores to sleep. The delete all apps you don't use, particularly system apps, and Greenify everything else, turn off push notifications and location services, and turn down screen brightness to a minimum. While you are at it lock the phone in a volt to keep you from turning on the screen. You will get great battery life alright, but you may not like using the phone :banghead:
I'm running Pure Fusion with blu spark and am getting nearly 9hrs SOT
Great ROM and kernel combo imo

Hello.
I noticed that on CM is battery drain faster than on stock LG rom. How is this possible if lg rom is bloated?
Has someone bettery battery life with aosp rom, or is LG always better?

It all comes down the the kernel for the most part, in this case, I have seen exceptional battery life with AICP - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2494700 -
It's been stellar, and has an unbelievable number of options. It has rebooted on me in a week all of twice, which is way acceptable in my book compared to the bloat and stuff that comes on the LG rom. I love the rom, tons of themes out there on the playstore for 10.2, etc.
I was wondering the same thing, if the battery was going to be better or worse on AOSP.
I've been debating what direction I was going to go with software on my phone AOSP or custom stock
So i tried CM M1 snapshot. Usage was same as with debloated stock LG rom. Sync on, wifi or internet on, some low brightness and some high brightness.
I think that even phone was used more with LG rom, for same period of time LG rom was at 78-80% and CM rom was at 69 %.
As you can see from screenshots, no wakelock on CM.
Second screen is display.
In my experience, lg rom giving me better battery life than cm.
I get 24 hours battery life with 5 hours SOT with LG rom, with cm I only get around 4 SOT

It s quite big difference. Hope that future roms and kernels will improve battery compare to stock.

Taking your battery to 69% after 18 hours with an hour screen on time is not an indication of anything other than great battery life for the first 18 HOURS!!
Then you DON'T post screen shots of the LG ROM and just say "I think" it was 10% higher and are upset?
At the rate you're going you'll be at 3 days with three hours screen on [email protected][email protected] - Now THAT was a scientific calculation!!
battery
For awhile i thought CM was better, but running the 11/7 version, it seems to be draining faster than stock
I haven't been particularly happy with my battery drain running AOSP (Cyanogen mod nightly at the moment) which is a pity because other than that it runs great.
What I've been doing is charging my phone up to 100% before going to bed then leaving it idle (connected to wifi) while monitoring it with BBS.
What I've found is it's draining at around 3-6%/hour. The strange thing is BBS shows that my phone is going into deep sleep mode so why the battery drain, possibly powermanagerservice wakelocks?
...
I made second test. Tried to use CM and stock ROM in same way (browsing, fb, some videos, calls, mails) plus I greeniefied some apps and some system apps and with same screen time I have result 84% stock rom for 1:20 screen time and 70% for same screen time in CM M1 snapshot.
On both screen was mostly at 0%, sometimes about 30-40% .
Honestly, can´t find any explanation why CM drains more battery, every post or article just said that it was wakelock or that CM just drains more battery.

Wow. What´s your magic.
I wanted to start this thread mostly because I haven't found anything like it, but also because I need to know myself
Being the good flashaholic fiend that I am, as well as a monstrous fan of the Open Source, I run between AOSP/CM Roms, and Touchwiz roms for my Note 3.
While I absolutely love the vanillaness of CM/AOSP, what I've found over the last few weeks is that I am getting about 1/2 the battery life I do on a Touchwiz Rom with about the same amount of usage, using Shinto kernel and/or LeanKernel (about the same batter life give or take an hour).
For instance, I'm on a ZeroLemon 10,000Mha battery. With the Rom in my Sig, I can get about 4 days with moderate usage... while on a CM/AOSP rom, I'm lucky at best to get 2 days.
Why is this? Especially because there are a lot more processes running on the TW rom?
What are your opinions?
Same here man, found the battery life in s5 port rom better than Cm11

So... i did find better battery life with CM11... but an AOSP rom is noticably horrid... and still TW roms seem to be better than both.
All tests are using LeanKernel same version... all configured the same in terms of the kernel.
Anyone have any ideas why this is?
Because TW rom are optimized with material and not AOSP who are generics . ...
I think i got a decent setup now for CM11

Yes... I have a zerolemon
Also, how's performance for you?
I'm running a build of Exodus 5.1 with the boeffla kernel, and I'm getting around 3 hours SOT from 100% to 0% battery. That said, I have it set up in a way where I have zero lag (not using performance governor) and I'm getting 76206 on Antutu. with. I've also got Greenify and Amplify.
Just as a side note, how is your charging? I'm getting around 200mAh in (from my best cable and charger) boosted to around 650mAh using boeffla settings. Isn't that a bit low?
Atleast for me and my OPO, only the original charger and cable gets reconized as AC Charger, everything else i plug in as USB Charge, thats why the chip is force values around 200-650mA.
Boeffla Kernel can show u that, if the app says "Ac Charger" + a mAh value then u'r good, if it's not and just shows only a mAh value instead, the Cabel and Chager are reconzied as USB Charger therefore the IC Power Chip limits the throughput.
Sultanxda's 5.1.1 caf rom. Can easily bit 6-7 hours sot. Stock kernal
Before switching roms you should try wakelock detector and/or better battery stats to see if something is keeping your phone awake and killing your battery.
I don't worry too much about benchmark scores, focus on how your rom runs for everyday usage. Performance is just fine for me, but I don't play any heavy games on my phone though

Stock ROM and Boeffla Kernel, 6 hours of SOT with a battery friendly configuration (light undervolt, small underclock and balanced governor), but performances are still great with no lags. However with the stock kernel I never went below 5 hours, which is already a great result
used to have 8h SoT on KitKat. any lollipop / MM rom gives me max. 4h.
Darkobas best battery for me. Around 6 hrs. Then Herna's Omni and RaCyan: more than 5hrs.

slimsaber 0r Omni 6.0.x and sultan CM 13 06/12. CM 07/12build all giving 5+ hrs SOT for me.
I got about 5.5hrs on data (mostly LTE) yesterday across about 14-15hrs usage.
Sultanxda CM13 rom. Everything stock. No greenify and amplify and stuff. Turn of keep awake and wake up for google play services.
recently switched back to kitkat after realizind nobody was gonna fix the sitty battery life on 5.x and upwards. Not regretting my decesion. Bear in mind this is a one and a half year old phone that has seen daily usage, almost half of it was on 5.x, waiting for a battery drain fix. When it didn't come, I came back to 4.4.4 and I'm happy to say my battery is still healthy (was a bit worried all those months running a battery draining rom would have strained my battery). Cant tell you anything about charging since im using stock kernel on official CM11S with a stock charger, other than the fact that it charges really fast. Performance is so good that i decided to try and undervold (to 1950~) and im seeing no noticeable difference. Device is nice and snappy. I'd wholeheartedly suggest a switch to kitkat for the time being for anyone that wants to max out battery usage.
Note: These screenshots were taken after only the 2nd battery charge cycle so the battery still isnt calibrated all the way. After a few more charge cycles, i could probably get back to what i was used to on kitkat in terms of battery life: namely 8h screen time.

My phone running on stock COS12.1 and can get around 7-8 hours of SOT with WiFi in 1 day usage. On 2 days usage SOT 5 to 6 hours. But on Mobile Data I getting a 4 to 5 hours of SOT. For charging I using Apple's wall brick from old Ipad and original OPO cable - 0 - 100% in less then 2 hours.
Sultan cm13 nov build. Getting constantly over 5hr sot with LTE. Standby time 12-16hrs.
Disable the wakeup for google play services.
I'm on sultan's 01/01 cm13 build. Currently have 1:43 sot and am at 78%. Was at 92% after upgrading. So that's 7.357 minutes per 1% battery, or 12.26 hours SOT. Wakelocks are not an issue here because this is continuous use on about 30% brightness, wifi and lte on, sync on, Web browsing and YouTube only (no gaming). Completely stock build with no power saving bs. Sultan for president!
TLDR; depending on your useage, 12 hours SOT on cm13 is possible.
4.4 with cm11s
I've never had more than 2 hours SOT with any rom (stock, sultan's caf, exodus, and others), do I have a battery problem?
5,5-6h SoT with Fusionjack's SlimSaber 6.01 which is based on OmniROM Sources. I'm using this ROM without any modifications, like custom kernel or xposed, neither i'm using things like greenify or similar. I've just tuned the power profiles to save battery while screen is off and limited max cpu frequency to 1958MHz to prevent heating. I'm using Facebook+Messenger and WhatsApp, which are by far the biggest battery hoggers and running Google Now with on Tap with GPS at hight accuracy the whole day. So the reached SoT is absolutely nice. Calculatory that would mean, without Facebook, WhatsApp and deactivated GoogleNow and GPS i could easily reach 8h SoT, but i prefer the comfort over the battery life, coz that's why i'm having such a smartphone.
Sultanxda CM12.1 rom w/ the kernel it comes with. With LTE/WiFi mixed use all day, getting 5-ish SOT and 24 hours battery life total. Installed Greenify but have it limited to hibernating 3 apps only. Likely going to fool around with profiles to see if I can squeeze an extra 3-4 hours out of it.

Hi, I'm running the same setup as you, I was just wondering about the level of screen brightness you are using? Is your phone running on full brigthness, 10%, 50%, 70%? And are you using apps like greenify, nap or anything similar?
I'm getting good battery life with your setup but not as good as you. My screen brightness is always set to full and I'm sure that could drain my battery faster. So I'm just curious to about what level of screen brightness everyone is using approximately to get these kind of great screen on times. I'm just super impressed and hats of to you and everyone who achieves this lenght of usage!!

I got best battery with Darkobas, but my best is around 6. It depends on alot of things: your battery, your signal, your usages... I think my battery is old and the signal here is weak. So you can only compare to your battery life with other roms, other kernels...

I definitely understand that and the factors there is. But I was just wondering if those who are receiving 6+ SOT have their screen brightness turned down or if their screen brightness is fully turned up.
So what is the best ROM/kernel combination for battery life? Curious as I get about 3.5-4h SOT with stock ROM and Franco kernel.
Thanks
Roms dont have that much of an impact in battery life. Kernel might, and franco is good and optimised kernel many users recommend. Its all about your usage, if you are on mobile data all day, play some games, then 4hours of sot is totally fine result. Im using pure nexus rom with franco kernel, if its light usage, like tapatalk chrome etc, usually i get around 6hours if sot, if its heavier usage 4..
Hi all,
Im having a very strange battery related issue these days.
I charge my device to full and use normally, the battery drains veryyy fast. Its like 1-2% per min. When i sleep at night if the device is 80% charged on waking up i find it to be at 65-70%.On checking the battery stats i find no battery hogging app. The device is in deep sleep for the entire night,not even a single wake up. Another weird issue is that my battery stays at 1% for at least 40mins
what I tried?
* Have greenify and amplify module enbaled in xposed.
* Tried calliberating battery many times.
* Flashed kernel/borets kernel, none worked out.
How the issue arises?
* My device was 100% normal when i was on stock rom, no issues like this at all.Then i flashed montana rom.I noticed this issue within first day of usage. I thought it was due to rom so i flashed mnml rom.Same issue there. Then flashed leopard black,gecko premium,zenodex,cm12.1 and what not.but the issue remains same.
*I thought this is due to rom's so reverted to stock kitkat, now this issue is there too.Tried upgrading to l,no relief.
My current system:
android L stock.
rooted, xposed installed.
using greenify and amplify modules.
Guys, any help will be very useful for me.
Thanks

Yeah we all know that zenfone's battery performance is just ****.
But we can slightly improve the battery performance by doing some tweaks. So use LSpeed app to improve the battery performance. Of has inbuilt govtuner . Now I'm getting between 3 - 4 hours SoT (screen on time). This is because of lspeed, just set the profile to battery and then you will get slightly improvement on battery performance.
