I made this thread so that other users can discuss which is the best rom for G901F in terms of battery life.
It will save users the hassle of installing roms and then testing them for weeks to find out which is best.
So let the discussion begin!
Cynogenmod
I installed cynogenmod 12.1 where the battery life was not great, however then went back to cynogenmod 12 and battery life was much better. However after using the rom for a couple of months i have seen a steep decline in battery life even when phone is sleeping.
What is other users opinions on other roms?

Did you recalibrate the battery after updating to 12.1?
I use Simple GX Rom 1.4.1 with Kernel.
Battery life is very good. Nearly 0%/h in deep sleep.1-2% over night (9h)
I tried Nova 1.3 with stock kernel. Batterylife was a little bit lower than SimpleGX.
About 0,7%/h in deep sleep.
With Stock BOH4 Rom (Tmobile) i have lost 15-20% over night
Any one knows the best battery rom ? for 8.1 because im faceing a lot of problem with a couple of roms except for our stock rom
Not really sure with nitrogen os 8.1 if there was already improvements on it. But I use it before for 8.1 but lack of oxygen os camera push me back on flashing back the stable rom.
Nitrogen OS. Been with it since its early stages, and I can assure you it's the best Oreo ROM I have ever tried, both stability, smoothness and battery wise.
Hope this could help you! :laugh:
They all good, useless thread.
Asking a question like this will always leave you more confused than before you asked it. Don't ask for the best ROM which has the best xyz features or best battery life.
You can either search for similar threads, or do trial and error flashes of ROMs until you find one that matches you.

There are a lot of thread about the best rom... However i recommend you a stock or stock-based rom on 7.1.1 with a custom kernel.
We need someone super dedicated who can do some tests on idle drains for a few ROMs... So we know which rom is most battery friendly from stock with no user apps/input

idk, I wouldn't call it useless thread, there are certainly some 8.1 ROMs that I can't even get 2 hour SOT on, while others I can get 4.
None of the ROMs out currently have deep sleep to my knowledge. I have tried Nitrogen, DU, Omni, etc and battery still drains while sleeping. It will go from 70 to 30% overnight. I only have Reddit (Boost), Discord, and Telegram installed (with notifications off), Spotify & Shuttle.
i suggest [ROM] theOne3TOS ,its based on offisial OOS,very battery saved during my using process.

I use TheOneOS stock OOS OB 21 Aroma with AKT advanced Battery tweaks with boeffla kernel. All lag free. With almost 8 hrs screen on time.

Use Greenify ( and don't be light with the hammer ) and you'll get your deep sleep.

Looked into it, I disabled wakelocks and I get through a full day with 70% left. Wow.
I still don't get a full deep sleep, (a solid line to the right), but its enough to have me not worry about my battery not making it through the day.

Yeah I always noticed OOS had a bit better battery, but I would have to be 1-2 months behind in security patches and using their bloated OS ;(. Granted, its a lot less bloated then other skins.

So switched over finally to oreo 2 months ago on OB. Flashed every oos kernel and battery life just seems to suck compared to nougat. Sot has dropped significantly and idle drain is through the roof. I was getting 0.1-0.2%/hr idle drain on nougat and over 8 hours sot every day on nougat, happened to be running the Xceed kernel as well. Is it just me or does everyone seem to have this issue? Because, to be honest, a decrease from at least 8 hours sot to 4 hours is making me say f* the new awesome features and go back to nougat and get my battery life and performance back.
What kernel are you using ?
I have used boffela and Render zenith both gives me good battery backup and standby .. currently on Render zenith as it has EAS and providing me with amazing battery backup .. Just flash it and give some time like 2 days .you can see the difference... Custom roms most of them I have tried but not satisfied with the battery backup so moved to open beta

Currently on Renderzenith as well. So far the best for battery life under my usage. I know it differs from person to person but a decrease by half is not something I can consider an improvement.
Renderzenith kernal link guyz???

Which ROM has the best battery life?
I have been using crDROID and the batter life is comparable to the stock MIUI. I tried ArrowOS for a little bit and it seemed to have longer battery life. I didn't use ArrowOS long enough to find out if it did truly have better battery life.
What has been your experience?
Battery life depend on personal use. Which differences with SOT have you seen?
With CrDroid (default kernel) I have between 4-5 hours SOT
imho too short. I want to try sleepy kernel first before I decide another rom

Like I said above, I didn't use ArrowOS long enough to know. But what I do know is that with the screen off, I lose 1% every five-ish minutes with crDROID and MIUI. ArrowOS didn't do that with my limited experience. For SOT, crDROID estimates 7 hours. I believe its more like 5-6, similar to your experience.

I didn't test crDROID.
but I have used Arrowos for 3-6 month it's ok ROOM but sadly no MIUI camera support on it, the battery life is great at the start but get shorter after long use, (maybe because of google play Update??)
"projectsakura" is way better if you want MIUI camera.

Did not try crdroid but I flashed ArrowOS 12L and can't tell any battery drain. Installed it 5 days ago and still have 20 odd per cents of battery left, waiting for the first full charge. I do not use any google apps/ services (gapps or else).
I prefer android aosp look and features. I want a rom that is battery friendly, im currently on pixel experience but im only getting 3h SOT, versus 5-6 with oxygen os. So im looking for a rom with good battery or a solution like magisk mod or something involving root like custom kernel etc.
My battery is at 80% health as per Accubattery.
I had better battery/performance relation with Paranoid Android
YAAP is good too, i need to test it with heavy tasks, but theres no noticeable overnight drain
