[Q] Whats your favorite battery saving roms? (SGH-I777)

[ferls1985]

I was just curious to what are some of the better battery saving roms out their. I have a samsung galaxay s 2 i777 and after the dreadful 2.3.6 update my phones battery dies before the end of the day (thats if i dont use it) and withing 12 hours if i use it through the day. Im looking for a flashy rom that does not take up to much battery life anything better than this 2.3.6 att update would be great. So what is your favorite battery saving rom, and why?

Understood...

Unfortunately, the mods don't like people getting into spitting matches over which ROM is better. Typically they will spiral out of control.

Your best bet is to just peruse the forums and try multiple ROMs and find what is best for you.

ROMs are like girlfriends, you can pick the good looking one, but that does not mean that she wont nag. Younger is not always better.

I have been in a quest for this very thing and I can tell you that so much depends on your usage patterns, applications you install, and other stuff, that there is no perfect solutions.

Given where you are, I would go to this thread and read as much as you can. Probably the single best place to learn how to figure out the root cause and the strength/weakness of a ROM base:

So to answer you with my personal view is that:
- I cannot use the Hellraised ROMs due to my requirement to have password
- Many have had good experience with Hellraised ROMs, so if you do not have that restriction (PIN or PW), I would try that
- So from the i777 base, the best battery life for me came from UnNamed 1.3.2 with DD kernel. I still have significant battery problems, but that gives me the best

Best simile ever!

Ya, these threads dont usually produce good wholesome conversations... it usually turns into a popularity contest and different Devs dont like to see that.

However, for battery saving, there is a good thread going on here with awesome data.
