Hi,
I switched to OP5 from OP2 yesterday. I'm on stock android 10 which gives me around 5 hours SOT with moderate gaming. What rom you suggest me to try? Was using CRdroid in OP2 and I felt in love with paranoid android quartz after watching a video in utube. However I saw cmnts say battery is not that great. Any suggestion will be helpful
Thanks
I have tried a lot of different roms but in all honesty, they all give you pretty much the same SOT, where you can improve is trying different kernel, this is the area where I could see a difference in SOT. So you don't necessarily need to change roms but what you can do is try different kernel. To start off you can try out Lazy's kernel, this is the one I recommend.

Hi all!
I'm currently an LG G4 user but I'm really disappointed of this device because of it's poor battery life...
Before having the G4 I had the Mate 7. I loved its fingerprint sensor and its huge battery.
I want to know if it's easy to get 5-7 hrs of SoT with the OpT and if its camera and fingerprint sensor worth getting the device?
Btw I'm planning getting a MarshMallow Rom (for the fingerprint sensor API integration on Android 6.0), is the battery life OK?
Concerning the overheat issue is it solved?
As far as I could read, the SkyDragon Rom is quite well made and even with OOS 2.x.x combined with Boeffla's kernel gives good results... But as I'm looking for a MarshMallow rom I'd like to have reviews about the SkyDragon Rom (any compatible Kernel or setting giving good battery life? Same questions for CM13)
Waiting for your replies!

hey there, well the fingerprint sensor is really good not just a gimmic much better then locking your phone with a code/patten, so useful for simply unlocking and locking the phone.
About battery life i mean well on skydragon with boeffal's kernel and a good battery saving profile you cab get really good results some others even getting 7-8 SoT!
But realistically on any MarshMallow ROM your only gonna push 5 hours SoT max.
I've tried pretty much every ROM and combo with kernels ect, i'm currently using the Offical Exodus ROM 6.0.1, for me at least its just awesome lovely user experience very very fast and just all round a brilliant and stable ROM and updated lots.
But as for battery life i get 4 to 4 and a half hours SoT on average a fue times had over 5 hour but thats using the phone very little, i get through the day on one charge 80% of the time and thats good enough for me.
Hope this helps a little let me know if theres any other questions you have.
Hi everyone, I m currently on oxygen os 3.5.9 and my battery drains like crazy. Can you guys please recommend me a rom that gives good screen on time. I am even willing to downgrade to lollipop because battery life is really crucial for me. Thanks!!
I'm in the same case, looking for the best choice with the maximum stability and good battery life
I tried so but returned to LineAge even if the battery life is not really good but the ROM is the most stable ever now
Tonight will try Carbon to test, but if someone found the best compromise in one ROM That it notifies us
Try AOSCP. It's really good.
Moyses I tried lineage and yes the same issue battery is not that great. Hopefully we will find a good battery friendly rom. Let me know how the carbon rom works for you.
Ny_3 thanks I will check it out. What's the average screen on time that you get with this rom?
I would either recommend AospExtended/AEX or Resurrection Remix if you like customizability. I am using AEX and don't have any problems with battery life.

Well I've got 3 and a half hours of SOT but it's really the best I've got on a custom rom (guess my battery is bad). I actually bought a new battery 2 days ago so I will have to check how it is after that. But thats basicaly what I get most of the time using FB messenger Spotify and YouTube. Keep in mind its not full of features. It's kinda like Paranoid 6 : Smooth, not full of features, and really stable.
Which is The Best Kernel For you with Oxygen OS or OOS Based Rom's For Best Battery Life and Performance Balance?
I used FrancoKernel But I Don't know why I am Getting only around 3.5 Hours of SOT When others are getting 10Hours
In the Stock Kernel and OxygenOS I am Getting Around 4 to 4.30 Hours of SOT
well bud, you should know how to use a smartphone. there is no way on the earth that OP5 lasts about 3hours. No offend, you should consider switch to iPhone. Android is a different thing. you should know how to get rid of wakelock, what consumes the battery the most, or what keeping your phone awake etc. No kernel or rom can help you.
Stock, don't be fooled, there is no kernel that give you extra hours of battery life or rocket speed.. that's just placebo or bored users that they need to flash something.
Oneplus 5 is quick enough, apps opening instantly, to where you want to push it more?
Even if you find some way how you throttle down performance to gain couple of minutes on battery where is the point, when on the end you put
your phone on charger that in couple of minutes give you power for another day?
just enjoy the phone..that's my opinion

I Got your Point,Thank You for the Information
I Just Switched From Iphone 5S Maybe That's Why i have Devoleped this Laziness to Not to Look into Advanced things,I will Research more
I Used to Use Android in 4.0
There is something else that is draining your battery, such as an app, it's not the kernel
I flashed a lot on my elephone p9000. No need to on op5 stock experience is perfect
SimpleGX has very good feedback regarding battery saving and stock performance.
I'm currently giving it a try but it's early for me to comment properly.

What a negative bunch of responses.. I use franco, naptime and get 5hrs plus SoT easily.
You don't need to be a power user to have android. Stock is fine, but modded is better (this is xda after all).
Fresh install latest OOS, keep installed apps to a reasonable amount (which do you -actually use-?)
And then... Use. If you are a business user, expect less SoT. If you only watch YouTube on wifi, expect longer SoT.
You go and most importantly, explore! OP5 is a wonderful phone!

This or stock. I've tried all the other kernels (with a friend who also has a OnePlus 5). Stock beats everything else in terms of battery by at least an hour of SOT in daily usage, more if you use the whole battery in one sitting. Nobody seems to have a straight answer as to why this is. Simple gx stays close enough to stock that battery life is pretty much identical to stock. I have no idea why battery on Boeffla, blu_sparks, elemental x, Franco, etc isn't as good as stock, doesn't make any sense to me. Same results on 2 different phones, but ymmv I guess?
Whats everybody's recommendation for what ROM to run on the note 4 (mine is A snapdragon). I was using Dr Ketans rom, and that was all really good - fast and snappy, good battery except video was not GPU accelerated! And was a battery drain, or having playback issues. That was the only issue i had with it.
So i went back to the factory Samsung Marshmellow android, but immediately everything was laggier and slower, and the battery drain was horrendous (from 5hours SOT, down to 2hours SOT). Im almost %100 sure Samsung intentionally made it that way to force users to upgrade. But i dont want to let them win! since these phones have removable batteries to keep them going for some time yet!
So what is everybody elses using? I really like to use the pen for taking quick notes which may rule out lineage?
Thanks
Uhm, I don't get 5 hours of SoT on any rom, maybe 3-3.5 hours if I'm lucky. Did you manage that on "Dr Ketan's rom"?
On terms of usage experience, I'd recommend Resurrection Remix.

yeah i was managing 5 hours SOT and i think once or twice hit 6 hours. May of been on kit kat before i used dr Ketans Rom, but all i know is going back to samsung stock Marshmellow was a big mistake.
I should have some screenshots somewhere to show those SOT times. I really ran things bare minimum though. I will give Resurrection Remix a go thanks.
Anyone else have any feedback? please share.
As you all know the final version of Android 9.0 (PR) was recently ported to Xiaomi Mi A1 by taking advantage of Project Treble. Although there are more than one Kernels out there with Treble support, there is no thread to actually compare them. So if you have tried this port, please write down your experience with the Kernel you used.
Iam using the Custom Rom Treble non OC Kernel from here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/mi-a1/development/kernel-extreme-kernel-1-0-mi-a1-t3769702
With that i get the most Battery life out. About 2 Day´s without charging and mostly reading News, Texting with Whats App, and Listening much Music.
So not much intensive and no Gaming.
Last Charge was before 16 hours and 5 Days are left, because i do nothing with the Device =P

Android Pie and this why he ask what Kernel are good for this one and you only can use Pie with Treble .
But back to SOT it is now 54min. Last charge was 41 hours ago and i have left about 1 Day and 17 hours :fingers-crossed:
So next charge maybe at least 20% in the next evening.
My personal best from now on is eXtreme! Been using Moun on Oreo and on Pie, after using eXtreme for few days, difference was quite noticeable so imho eXtreme is the best kernel for balanced/battery life when tuned properly!

What did you use to tune eXtreme and what settings do you have? I'm really curious!

Oh, I'm currently on 8.1 Liquid Remix ROM and honestly don't remember what exactly I tweaked. I've used Kernel Adiutor, changed few thing regarding CPU, disabled Fsync, enabled one CPU when screen is off, Schedule workqueues on awake CPUs, that much I can remember. I am not heavy user, just listening music on Youtube Vanced app, using social media apps, browsing the web with Brave etc... Getting 2 days without charge with 5-6hrs of sot and about 10% battery left.
Right now I didn't change anything on Liquid Remix and battery life is still amazing compared to Moun or Mint kernels. eXtreme just gives great results without tweaking anything
