which rom has the best battery life?

I was wondering which rom has the best battery life. can anyone suggest to me a rom that has a good battery life? I'm still new to this so yeah I appreciate the help thanks!

CM13 is the best without tinkering with settings BUT it's up to you what you choose

Hydrogen OS, has the best battery performance that I seen until now. Great control over apps consumption and customisable.

I tired both cm13 and hydrogen apart from the stock oxygen os but I would suggest you to try Exodus 6.0 and I assure you'll never look back. have a good day.

Oxygen has best battery life

Oxygen and hydrogen right now.

Kingmercian (H2OS) gets me battery life that rivals what I had with SkyDragon (OOS) with the Boeffla Kernel. I haven't seen any need to try flashing any CM13 ROMs while I'm using Kingmercian as my daily driver.

Battery life depends on uses, it always different for different people. One rom can give 6hrs sot to someone and same rom can give other only 4 hrs.
So try various ROMs and tweaks for yourself and decide.
Btw i am on stock oos and i am quite happy with battery as i m getting approx. 6.5 hrs sot.

I'm using this one NXROM at the moment and I'm loving it. Smooth and great battery, but like @sushant6786 said. It all depends on apps you use, how you use your phone. What's great for me might be woirthless for you.
The best you can do is try different roms and feel for yourself. Try some that people recommend to you and make up your own mind
Good luck in your search for a rom that suits your need

I've done around 4 hours of SOT, but I haven't pushed it to see how much I could get. Still had juice left when I put it back in the charger.

NXROM is based on cm13 .. I have tested it and the battery is good but i had commom problems like in cm builds like wifi problems.
I have tested almost all the roms for our 1+2 and i can say that the best in battery with the same use are: h2os from kingmercians + skydragon v3.3 oxygen based (with boeffla kernel is better) and exodus rom. But where i got more sot was in h2os (5h30) with wifi always on and no powernap, amplify or grenify.

I can vouch for Kingmercian's H2OS as well, it's the definitely the clear winner (based on my daily usage). I ran Seraph's CM13 for a while but dropped it due to its heavy drain. As for LP-based ROMs, both OxySlim and Skydragon performed very well for me, at least when compared to stock.

Best battery friendly MM ROM?

Anyone has the most battery friendly combination of ROM and kernel? I've tried almost every MM ROM but doesn't satisfy me. I just bought a new battery recently for my D802 and still draining fast. Im using latest bumped twrp. I have never had an SOT of more than 4 hours of normal usage. Now I'm barely getting 3 hours sot and it sucks. So any tips will be appreciated thanks!

Hi,
the PA-Rom is very battery friendly.

I've tried that too. What kernel tweak you use and settings?

I should have mentioned that I have been using the Lambda Domino Stable kernel and the efficiency battery profile. I also use Greenify for doze on the go (aggressive doze).

I use PA with the original Kernel. Battery life is for me like Stock KitKat.

I once use beanstalk and the battery is really fine but when i changed ROM and install again Beanstalk battery was never the same. I don't know what went wrong. I've always used greenify.

Using PA with Lambda Hipnose Beta 9 kernel right now. Using lots of alarm/wakelock blocks etc with amplify and greenify. Battery life seems okay, but I'm asking myself if exodus, beanstalk or resurrection remix would do better? Did anyone try and can make a direct comparison? I care more about battery life than about performance tbh. Thanks in advance!

crdroid was great, with aggressive doze !

Currently on XOSP with latest lambda beta. Averaging 4hours SOT from 100 to drain. Basically lasts a day with minimal gaming and mostly web surfing, youtube and facebook. Performance kinda lags but tolerable.

This isn't a marshamallow ton but if you want best of both worlds trust me and try ice rom v5.9 final it's actually as some with the camera battery life evrything it's fluid. Trust me try it you won't regret it even though it's lolipop based
Otherwise if you really like marshmallow I really liked aokp but I'm sticking with the ice ton you can find it on 4dpa

Has anyone tried [AKT] Advanced Kernel Tweaks?

Has anyone used this [AKT] Advanced Kernel Tweaks with their LG V20?
If so, how good is it?
If so, what device did you choose in installing it (as it doesn't appear to have v20 as an option)?
https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-3/how-to/advanced-interactive-governor-tweaks-t3476589

Just install akt apk and select sd820.

Just an FYI the akt tweaks only work on nougat. Development ended quite awhile ago. My understanding the devs moved onto oreo and developed some tweaks search xda for something called helix engine I believe

I tried AKT on Classic rom with BTTF kernel on Ls997 and had no luck. Not sure if it was rom or kernel or what. Seemed to cut battery time in half instead of doubling. AKT would be sweet if I could get it to work right. Kernel already has no touchboost imbedded I guess btw.

Here's my results on alpha nougat, mk2000 bttf kernel with akt tweaks

Go figure...the first selection lol. I will test over a few days and see what comes about and then Ill post results.

Just a quick update so far... I am currently in midst of testing the Xana Extreme again because on my cell I was experiencing no lag or if any very slim and wanted to real test as I got it working properly via app version. The Zanah didnt seem to cause any issues as it also did increase a few hours of battery life. So far however with the Xana extreme I am currently on 26 hours since full charge and no plug since at 56% battery left. I know it is about SOT, but total life is just as important. No restarts as that kills the test. Im happy and impressed so far. Will post more after battery nears death
Here of some pics of current test so far...

Which of the files did you use? (OP3? OP3T? KPM125? KPM.prj?)?
What settings?
What's been your results?
Thank you for sharing this.

Here is the final result...even though not showing much as for screen as I did not use too much, but overall battery is epyk . Still showed main results luckily after a reboot because it died before I could get a "before death screenshot".

Thanks for these... Is everyone using mk2000 kernel, or is there a better battery life friendly one (for US996)?

I'm currently on aokp rom so haven't tried this. I would suppose it should work with op3

Here is a shot of my initial rundown of a new 4100 mAh Li polymer battery that's the same size as the stock one (mentioned in the Accessories section and the V20 Subreddit), getting past 10 hours of screen-on time. You can ignore the averages section of the screenshot as it's the first run.
Setup: LS997, ClassicROM ZV7 | mk2000 BTTF kernel | AKT 1.6, OnePlus3/SD820, Project Zhana Battery profile
I also turn on aggressive doze when idling overnight using Naptime, dim the display down after sunset using CF.lumen, and auto-brightness is on.

So I decided to switch up atm because I wanted my GPU to not be bogged down at all. I checked the Xana battery in the balanced area and was fairly impressed. For absolute no bog down and fully clocked GPU/CPU for full performance and good battery I recommend this. Sure the results seem less, but my battery has also had hundreds of restarts and charges since I got it and who knows how many before hand. A brand new would show better. I also have a dynamic wallpaper and am running Dolby and Viper as well. Same kernel. Same rom. Same phone.
Also the pic shows 15% because phone died before I could get proper screenshot, the 95% is the key and results are still accurate.
This is my final post as to testing for this thread.

Mysticblaze,
I wanted to bring the conversation from "[Discussion] Improving efficiency and battery life of the V20." back to here since we started to get into some talk about this AKT.
There, you said, "I can get around 10hrs sot (depending) using Xana extreme battery. That's the one I'm currently on.
Have a 4200 mAh battery (reg size)"
1st - what ROM and kernel are you using with that?
2nd - is the battery 4200 or 3200 (mine's a 3200)?
3rd - any other settings I need to know about to pull 10 hours SOT?
Thank you so much!

Yes, 4200. It's a Shemnz. Got from eBay. Rom is Classic for ls997. Kernel is latest 7.0 mk2000. Hard to say on other settings. My test tho was an up to.
I left screen always on with a live wallpaper running with a covered proximity sensor for lowest Auto. Got about 10 and a half.

Which Kernel is the best for battery life/standby drain?

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 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.

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.

Umm... What

What should i use?

Hello,
as you can see im a senior member. Which means im old and stupid.
May question is, whats the best to use on my One Plus 8 Pro? Im not happy with my battery life but im happy with OOS on Android 11. I never testes Android 10 here. But the battery life of my old long time used huawei p30 is better.
Im using the radioactive kernel and added all battery tips in franko kernel manager. But my battery is stil draining too much imo.
To all users here: What are you using? A custom rom? Some Specific Kernel? Are you usind Android 10?
Im happy with all functions and features but battery life is a disssapointement at this point.
Help a senior

Stock OOS on Android 11 rooted. Battery seems good enough for my 5G usage....
Cheers
