I would like to have a kernel that will give me good performance but great battery life! What do you guys suggest and post some screenshots of your battery life with the kernel please!
theres no point in these kind of threads. read the kernel threads and general/q&a, you'll find out why.

Stock. More performance means less battery and/or stability and vice versa. Stock was already built to be the median between the three.

That's kind of the same as asking for a 400HP engine that has the fuel efficiency of 5 liter per 100 km.

I have stock rooted, I love the phone and didn't want to flash a ROM so soon but I was wondering, what's a good kernal thats better than stock, that increases battery while not affecting the speed negatively, I currently get about 10-12hrs on my battery as is
Search doesn't work that well for me on mobile, so sorry if previously asked although I did scan the threads but just wanted to see how you guys are doing with your current kernals

Try tdj's dark side kernel. Very smooth and great battery life. Plus you can overclock and under volt.

Thank you for the info but when you say great battery life do you mean better than stock?

i think there's only about 4-5 options out there... but each phone's hardware is different so each kernel will be different.
For example, my phone works really well with faux and darkside, but i get quite a bit of drain from eugene's kernel (yes I do configure my clock speed and voltages) people say synergy has great battery life and is smooth, however, my phone says different. it lagged more than the 3 mentioned and battery life was equivalent. There is also the bullet kernel... i haven't played with that... not sure if im missing any other kernels... but yeah i suggest giving the first three a try first as they are currently being supported.
reminder, you should let your phone go through at least 2 charges before comparing kernel's battery life etc... and with our phone.. thats 2 days lol
Pretty much any of the kernels on the first page will give you better than stock battery life. Faux, synergy and the dark side kernel are the three most popular kernels amongst Devs so that must mean something.

To be honest, i only ran stock for a few hours. Ive been running a custom rom since day 1. But I believe it would be better then stock because TDJ has undervolted the kernel slightly.
I'm using the darkside right now and so far so good

I've tried most of the popular kernels and the best battery life I've observed has been with Synergy... hands down gives me the best standby battery life.
But what I've noticed that gives me even better battery life is just turning off mobile data when I don't need it (in class, during meetings)... which also turns off the background syncing.
But in the end, it's all up to you how crazy you want to get with your battery management.

Alright. There are sooo many ways you can extend your battery life. But really if your looking for the best rom/kernel, you would really have to read the threads of the specific rom. Really, the only way to find this out if to try new roms or find another person that has tested every single rom (highly unlikely as you might know) and go forth from there. There is always adjusting your voltage if your extreme.

good day.
Phone is coming in tomorrow and have heard crazy mixed reviews about the battery life on the phone.
What kind of life do you guys get?

The devs here do great jobs. Faux kernel using intellidemand with task650 AOKP has been awesome with great battery.

Hi,
I have several questions. As i do not like bloatware on androids i would like to know which rom you prefer.
The most important for me is battery life, second performance.
I have been looking for custom roms but there are so many of them.... I am not able to decide which one is the best.
You can also recommend stable kernels.
I have been reading and searching forums but roms and kernels update quite often....
I know its much to ask but that would help next users to decide what ROM to choose.
The best would be screenshots of SOT and Antutu benchmark.
Also that would help if XDA would make it as a rule to ROM developers to upload SOT and Antutu benchmarks
I'm using xXx Nolimits but i can't guarantee good battery life i don't know what happened but on all roms/kernels i'm trying only getting 4-5 hours SOT

Treskmod, just Treskmod. It's the snappiest and best Rom in terms of performance. The battery is also pretty dam good. It's based on AOSP with Omni's amazing stable framework. If you use tripndroid governor with deadline Io scheduler then you will never experience better performance.

If you like oos, stay on xxxNolimitsRom, been using this rom for more than 2 weeks, 100% stable, no lags, speedy performance and amazing battery life. I use snapchat,insta,whatsapp,spotify,fb messenger, telegram and youtube all the time with no battery saving options nor greenify and get 6-7hrs of sot daily. Give it a try.
Thanks for replies, I fixed the crazy battery drain problem, updated to latest oreo and I had 20% battery drain less than 1 hour. Showed me 3h battery life and now... I don't think it's possible but here is the proof of improved battery life...

Extended in my opinion
Such questions are quite useless. If there are 12 different kernels for Whyred, you will get probably 13 different recommendations.
Mistakes can happen, no reason to be rude, report it, we'll move it.

In fact I want to know which is the best for battery life and which for performance according to you, because there are so many kernel and I don't know which is the best for battery life
