Okay, let's face it, this phone doesn't have a great battery life. The most i ever managed to get out of this 1500mAh battery was 22 hours, more or less.
That was on the glorious cm11 haha
Anyways i'm rolling over all the roms since December and now i can't find one that gets me over 14 hours, that actually is really bad. My use is mainly whatsapp so i don't think i'm giving an hard time to my battery. I tried looots of apps and roms. I feel stupid haha.
So my question is, what rom and which settings gave you the best battery life and how much did it last?

NovaFusion's Cyanogenmod 12 is best. But rom has bugs for now

Tenshi_xp's pacs latest version has pretty good battery life.

There is no bad choises, only bad results.
SGS III Mini
tenshi_xp's PAC Rom RC-3

Well for me, i tried almost all the popular custom roms for s3 mini and i found that dmodv6 gave me best battery. I could get around 3-4 hours screen on time. I tried cm 11 and cm 12 but battery life was horrible, i could only get 2 hours screen on time. I would recommend dmodv6 if you just want battery life. Im still trying to find a kitkat rom with good battery life but i just can't.
