Basically what the title says. What's the differences, which ones better or which one do you prefer? Pros cons?
Any thoughts would really help. Thanks ahead of time.

These get old. We can't tell you more than the description.
In any case, does Snack even have it's own kernel? I haven't tried that ROM for more than a few hours without liking it. Netarchy has a kernel with builds for DC, Fresh, and stock. It's a solid kernel.
Edit: It is a custom kernel on Snack. It appears there aren't builds for it outside of the snack ROM though. Please correct me if I'm wrong. Sorry for any musinformation.

If you have the Damage Control or Fresh ROM flashed to your phone, your best bet is to use the corresponding netarchy kernel as they are made for those ROMS. I have no input on the baked snack kernel because I haven't used it. I flashed DC3.2.3 and netarchy DC kernel and never looked back.
used both
I have to say I liked BS rom it was good I moved on today to EVio and I have to say I am impressed not only was I able to remove sense the kernel is way snappier. Give me a few more says to test and I will have a really good idea on how much I like this new ROM

Searching through these forums, I was overwhelmed with all the ROM options.
I ask you, what are your favorite ROMs and what separates them from the competition?
minez are CM6 and Virus rom revolution those are nice CM6 because its something different big time and virus rom because its good on the battery and its fast
Good question.
Try them all and see what you like. It's all about personal preference.
I like Damage Control and Cyanogen Rom's
Also, this would be a good question to put in the Q&A rather than the development section.
i have tried them all and keep going back to CM6
OBTW this should be in general
Baked Snack, then CM6
If you want to ditch sense, Cyanogen is the way to go. If you like Sense, gotta keep it Freshhhhhhhh
Damage and fresh are the most popular sense roms
CM is the most popular senseless rom.
Force
I love Calkulin evio series rom. Then baked snack followed by cm 6

Definitely like CM the best...but because 4g, hdmi, and fm radio dont work.....I run fresh's latest rom with toast/netarchy's kernel. I also like some of the htc and sense apps/widgets. Fresh is quick and stable for a sense rom with some extra tweaks in it.

Most roms are good, although they are pretty similar so just go with whatever seems like the best to you. Damage Control, Fresh, and Baked Snack seem like the most popular. Fresh is a really nice and stable rom that has a great updater app. Baked Snack is my favorite though (atm). The optional kernels really make it great for tailoring your experience.

I've tried most of them also but Caulkin's is the whole package to me Fast, stable and pretty much everything is working. CM6 is great but with no 4g or hdmi I'll have to wait to they get everything working.
cm 6 is tight..
Sent from ANDROIKAY ON CM6 from xda app =]
No matter how far I stray into other rom's I try I always go back to cyanogen. It's just nice to not have sense. Even without parts working it's the best.
Fresh and baked snack are nice though. Especially with netarchy/toast custom kernel.

I switch between Fresh, Ava's and CM6. It's nice to have choices that don't take a ton of work to swap on your phone. These Dev's are awesome and do great work, so try them all and see what you like. You can always just do an nandroid restore and move on to the next rom until you find the best fit for you.
Damage Control has great battery life.

loved calk's 1.02. kept getting an error 23 on 1.1 installation as were a number of others in the thread. 1.1 would be my fave if i could get the damn thing installed
Just a quick question...I'm running 3.70....and I'm currently using kernel 15.
Which kernel gives the best battery life?
Thanks.

like nuggy said, it depends. it seems like everytime i update my rom i need a new kernel to go with it.
i personally recommend netarchy's. i used his 4.1.9.1 kernel with great results for a long time, but recently upgraded to his 4.2.1.
you can check evobenchers for a general rundown on what kernels are running at, but once again, every phone handles things differently and your results may vary.

I have an HTC Evo 4G rooted running Myn's rls 5 .
What's the best kernel to get the most out of my battery ?
Sent From One BadAss Rooted Evo 4G On Myn's Warm 2.2 Rls 5 Steroids Via XDA App. ;-)
ima straight flash addict. ive flashed 95% of evo roms and kernels out there, unmatched battery life is SBC kernel #15. it honestly lasts me all day and im a heavy user but apperently it can lead to your phone blowing up ive never had that problem tho so ill keep taking the risk
Others are right. Try a few and see what works best. Try Netarchy's HAVS kernels with SBC for full battery and smartass or conservative governor (SetCPU from the market to set it easily).
SBC got a little harder to find recently, but it's out there, just not on the main netarchy page. Give the devs a little time and they'll work out the right legalese to appease the fear mongers...
I have myn rls5 as well and I use netarchy's 4.3.1 no SBC with cfs and havs (the newest beta) and have been doing okay with it. I typically have about 15%-25% at the end of an average day. It also improves the speed of myn rls5, which I like.
I gave up SBC for all my nandroid backed-up roms when everyone stopped supporting it, but I do still have SBC #15 v7 if you would like it (PM me and I'll upload it to you).
Keep in mind that a few people have claimed that it destroyed their battery, but I didn't overclock and all the data I've read on my phone tells me that everything was fine. So obviously, no one is responsible for your phone blowing up but you, lol.
I used SBC #15 v7 for about 2 and a half weeks and it was the best battery life I had. I ended every day at about 30% battery life and I'm a moderate user. When I flash to mikfroyo, I keep that kernel as the performance of the rom plus the battery life is a combo from awesomeville.
So I decided to root my evo a couple of days ago but I didnt flash any roms so Im still using the stock sense ui. Are there any good battery kernels to use with stock sense ui because Im having a hard time finding any? What do you guys suggest?

If I were running a sense ROM I would flash Netarchy's kernels...
netarchy or ziggy's are your main choice listed on XDA. else where on the web you can find Baked kernel and kings kernel.
i would just start with Netarchy and see how it goes.
Thanks alot guys. Ill try them out...
I'm kind of slow with this. Which file would I download if I wanted to use a kernal out of this thread? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=876590

First make sure u read up on SBC so you are aware of any 'possible ' issues. That said I use SBC, and I would use the netarchy 4.2.2 less aggressive HAVS
i dont really suggest using a SBC kernel personally. if you decide yuo want to it depends the more aggresive the undervolt the better the battery. this can impact performance and not all phones like an aggressive undervolt kernel and can reboot more often.
I would jsut find the netarchy kernel thread itself and lookf or the latest and try the aggressive undervolt kernel. if you have performance issues (random reboots) then flash the less aggressive one.
I'm not really digging an SBC Kernal as well. You of any good kernels that aren't SBC?
SBC-HTC15
Best yet

Just look for netarchys thread... they don't have SBC
Really surprised no one sent you to MYN's warm 2.2 rom thread....great rom....lots of great kernal options....lots of mods...it truly is the king of roms for your evo...give it a try you won't be disappointed...let me know if you have any questions. Mike

So I ended up with the Sprint Lovers ROM on my phone via the Autoroot method.
It has been great so far, battery life is tons better, but it isnt perfect. I find it laggy at times.
So, my question is, where should I go from here? What would be a good ROM to transition to? Seems like Fresh, Warm 2.2, and EViO are some of the more recommended ROMs.
I am also liking what I believe is the look of vanilla android. At least, the set-up I see on the Nexus phones. That being said, what does everyone recommend for ROMs of that style?
Gingerbread- CM7 w/ Tiamat kernel
Sense- King's Ultra or Myn's w/ a net-archy kernel
cm7, its lovely
Try every single one. It's like getting a new phone every week or however often you flash.
Cm7 or my new home; salvage mod 1.1

MIUI. The only thing I wish was that it had 4g. If you can find the version before the most recent, I would go with that.
if u love sense based rom, then u will love sense 2.0 based rom
try Warm Z or recently released MikZ
Yes, Sense 2.0 is much better if you can live without 4g. I would recommend trying Warm RLS5, Warm Z, MikFroyo, Kings Unleashed, VaelPak, Miui and CM7 or variant of.
Myn's Warm Z is to die for.
Koni's new elite 3 is off the chain. Nets 4.3 bfs more haves sbc= all day fun.

Vaelpak has had me drooling on my screen every night. I love CM7, but the GPS bug kills me.=[ Oh Warm Two Point Two is awesome too but it doesn't float my boat when it comes to gaming. Even with a netarchy kernel. =\
Sent From My E\/o - \/aelpak 3.2
If you like Sense and the way that Sprint Lovers in general operates, I'd say there's no reason to switch out to a completely different ROM. Just get a new kernel, the netarchy kernels are pretty nice in my experience. And then just set up SetCPU for some overclocking fun.
At least that's what I did, but I'm really very particular in how I want my rom to look and work. If you're more open minded, then there's no reason to not go out and try different roms like the ones recommended above.
CM7, just do the REALLY simple GPS fix beforehand. It's beaten like a dead horse in the nightly thread. Then flash it and you'll never want to go back to sense.
Agreed on vaelpak. Flashed 6 roms in 5 days. Have kept vaelpak for 2 weeks since then.

How does a ROM help battery life? Mine SUCKS! Won't last an 8 hour shift with mild use. I'm on the SprintLovers ROM from UAR. I bought the Sedio Extended battery and it's only mildly better with more bulk. What gives??
You need to flash a custom kernel till you find the rite fit for your phone. I use nets 4.3 sbc more havs and with the 3500 extended battery I can get a little over 24 hours with heavy use.

Explain that please. I'll find and figure out flashing the kernal, but what does "more havs" mean? Misspell? Just making sure I'm not missing an acronym. There's no way my battery will last 24. You have the Sedio?

This link will explain everything you need to know about kernels with more havs, less havs, sbc, no sbc, it should help you a lot. I get 24 hours plus with heavy usage. I have the sedio 3500 mah battery.

Which you guys recommend for Energy ROM?
the chop suey that comes with it is very good. when i ran this rom i used Anthrax kernel with very good results, but you need a hboot over like .76 if i remember right. just make sure any kernels you try are sense kernels... i recommend testing a few and see how they are on your phone. every phone is different. Make sure you dont wipe cache of all the apps that came with the rom.
I got the best results out of anthrax kernel was well
Sent from my ADR6425LVW using xda premium
I also used the Anthrax kernel and had good results.now I'm using the underworld kernel and I like this one as well. Like previously stated above try a couple and see which works well for you. Every phones different.
