I just wanted to come over to the General forum and let you all know that Scotty's Clean 4.5 is probably the most amazing ROM I have ever seen on any device.

out of the box Antutu is 17500....I'm running 10.5 hours with 2 hrs screen time and I have 71% battery left.

seriously folks....it's all day zoom zoom and it looks and feels totally stock.

If you haven't tried it....for the love of Pete..."DO-IT MAUN!"

Man, ur playing with fire here. But I would have to agree, it is a pretty nice rom if you prefer the stock look.

I love it as well. Best performance out of any ROM. But I also am in love with AOSP and 4.2 is amazing. So torn!!!

Yeah... I'm just letting people know tjere was a stock-ish rom with un believabke battery performance. I can't even remember where my extra battery is....I havent used it since I started using Clean.

Other roms are great...clean is...just amazing

A couple of things...

Is everything working?

And of course the famous "is wifi tether working"?

And - how stock is stock? Do you get the horrible message in your pull down, "There are wifi networks available?", "Your wifi is off" blah blah blah. Man! That was irritating!

Thanks for any information.

I disagree. I wasn't impressed with that ROM.

But its your opinion. Glad u like it.

Im at 1d, 10 hours and almost 1.5 hours screen time, I have 56% left....

Oh and stock.

Sorry but no zip rom dev will ever improve battery life without coding their own battery saving applications.

I am sure the rom is great, but don't credit battery life to it ;)

Short of going to AOSP, you cannot significantly change battery life on any ROM compared to what it is based off of. So, if you make a ROM based on Stock TouchWiz, it is going to get approximately the same usage as the Stock ROM. If you have doubts, go do a comparison test. Even undervolting isn't going to do anything significant for you with modern day processors.

...and debloating doesn't save you battery life.


My phone is still unrooted and stocked from when I got it replaced last week.

I knew I wasn't crazy... I've tried all roms under the sun. To me I've not noticed any performance difference. Of course I'm sure I don't use my note 2 as much as most people...

It has always been my belief that you use roms for features, not performance or battery claims.

I use Jelly Beans ROM 8 and the performance and battery life is 100 times difference. The battery with heavy usage was at 56% from 7am until 5pm. My Galaxy Note 2's performance without overclocking has been extremely fast in comparison to stock, I can now watch videos with any browser without the hour glass circle hanging for an extended period of time.

AOSP based ROM's can get you better performance and improve battery life (though I very rarely if have ever actually see the later).. At this time there are still issues with AOSP here and there.. most notably the gpu has either glitches or a memory leak (one or the other) and bluetooth is sketchy.

Zip ROM's or Stock ROMS will not change either performance or battery life by any real significance.

Basically I am reiterating what adrynalyne and imnuts said here

I disagree. Lol. I'm not a dev and don't know how to code (sure I'll get flamed) but here's how I see it:

"Debloating" does save my battery a bit. Some crap programs running in the background (at all times) that I never use, showing up in my battery stats and my running apps using xyz of my ram, apps that I *never* use (I mean NEVER opened) -- you don't think killing those (in effect - killing process) has any positive effect on ones battery life?

I think it does. I've tested it. One example: anything exchange related on this phone and the Note 2. Also: smart alarm clock. That damn widget never sleeps and I've never used it. My phone sleeps better without it and I do believe overall (with the other rogue apps I kill) my battery is better.

I'm ready to be proven wrong.

Your Liberty rom on my old Droid X improved performance and battery life significantly, and my co-worker mentions often how her friends and family with better, newer phones are surprised that her phone runs better.

I don't notice as much now, but with older devices bloat had a huge impact on performance and battery life. On some of my phones blockbuster was one of the biggest battery hogs and I've never once opened that app. On my Droid X with 512mb ram it would start to lag at 90mb free, it was really bad once it got down to 70mb free, and would freeze at 50mb free. Before I first rooted I had to use a app killer before I used my phone so it wouldn't lag, and if I used it more than 20 minutes or so I had to run it again to stop the lag. Once I rooted I started using an app to set the memory to always keep 90 mb or more free and didn't have lag anymore, but the apps I was using would constantly redraw but bloat apps I never used would be eating up all my ram, I debloated it and have been fine ever since.

Those *things* you never used are backgrounded and harmless, despite perceptions.

I have never seen a battery use screen shot chock full of apps never used draining the battery. ...

Except Maps. That one is annoying.

I am fully stock still and almost 2d usage with 34 percent left.

This is with Scott's clean Rom 1.0. Maybe stock gives you the same battery performance. But this Rom is as smooth as butter.

    You can't magically increase performance of the underlying hardware with a custom ROM based on the stock firmware. Sure, you may be able to get it to look a little smoother, but actual performance won't change. The only way to increase performance would be to install a custom kernel and overclock the CPU/GPU, and at that point, you'll hurt battery life. Sure, you can tweak memory management, but this isn't going to do more than just keep more apps in memory, or force them out sooner.

    On the same token, you can't magically increase battery life just by installing a custom ROM based on the stock firmware. The major bits of the OS can't be removed or changed really, unless you go to AOSP. Sure, you may get 5-10% at most increased battery life, but you aren't going to get an extra hour of screen time, maybe 10-15 min at most, and even that could just be because you've had better signal strength/quality. At this point, undervolting doesn't even do to much to help with battery life as most processors now are spending 95% of their time in lower power draw states. Running AOSP can potentially get you better battery life, but it can be hit or miss, depending on how well proprietary modules play with the system.

    once again placebo pants...the only reason I run beans is for the aosp themeing. it does not offer any performance gains or battery life over stock, nor will clean rom or any other modded stock variant. listen to imnuts and adrynalyne, those two know ther ish!!
