Best is Baked Snacks or DamageControl

Me personally, I've been stuck like glue on cyans latest offerings and just today I ran calkins new rom and I loved it.
Still a DC fan but I got enough love in me for all my ladies.

It's really a matter of preference. I was running Fresh at 0.5.3, then wanted to try something different so i hopped over to DamageControl. As soon as CyanogenMod was released though i've been running his nightly builds & i love them. Best bet is to take a look through all of them & see what it offers that you might want.
Best ROMs

CM6 hands down. Have not flashed anything else after going Stock froyo. You can really tell Sense does slow down the OS. CM6 is only getting better.

I use the Cyanogen 6 RC and have no reservations. Yes, you have to do these fixes immediately after installing and you lose 4G, HDMI output, and the FM radio, but you gain tremendously in the areas of responsiveness and battery life. If you can tolerate the trade-offs, I recommend it wholeheartedly. I've never used EVio, though. (Oh, what a rhyme show!)

I appreciate it guys, are the fixes a big pain in the butt to flash?

The market fix takes a bit of time, but is a one shot deal and is only about half an hour.
I don't use Facebook so I skipped the other one. However, I can't imagine it being worse than the Market fix.

Wasn't the Market fix just a matter of removing the old apk, clearing the data, & loading the new one? If i remember it was only a few cmd's through adb ( very simple to do ).
Also, there's a post on the General board saying the FaceBook sync is fixed without using the "hacked" version.

I didn't remove the apk. All I did was clear data and force stop. Flashed over the fixed market zip

Are you sure the speedup is related to no-Sense, or is it just FroYo being faster than Eclair? I remember reading somewhere (Engadget?) that Sense slows it down very little, if at all. And FroYo, of course, focused on 5 things, one of them being SPEED.
I'm just not sure that 2.2 w/ Sense would be that much slower than 2.2 w/o Sense. I guess I could try Ava's thing, but I'd rather just wait for DC 3.5...

EViO
just flashed it today and so far I like it over baked snack

cyanogen for life!

Incredibly Re-Engineered

Been running the Incredibly Re-Engineered ROM by chingy51o for about 2 days now. I wanted to post a question on the thread for it but apparently since I don't have 10 post on XDA, I have no business posting in the Dev Forums since I have no experience, which I believe I have plenty.
Well anyways here is my question. The battery life is terrible, is there a fix or one in the works? I was giving it time to settle in but after 2 days I still loose 30% in an hour.
The ROM was installed properly using recovery (I have plenty of experience), wiped and all. The ROM is SICK an I want to keep it.
Any fixes or suggestions would be awesome.

Try a different kernel.

Its all good man. Did you wipe dalvik/battery stats, have you set your sync schedules to the longest intervals? Screen brightness, gps, bluetooth off, etc? I'm not trying to belittle you at all, these are just things I learned over time-from my G1 to now. Good luck...and if all else fails, run cyan7!

His work includes a custom kernel, Lou's #8, so he's already replaced the stock kernel with a different one. Flashing a different kernel is okay to do, especially if you are getting bad battery life. I've run Lou's kernels, they work great with some ROM's, not so much with others. It is responsible for servicing requests from applications and managing resources basically, like the CPU and battery.
Trying a new kernel is not going to ruin the ROM as a whole, like the icons and stuff, so that's why I recommend trying a new kernel. Chingy may switch it at some point if things work better overall, and since you can download Lou's kernels, you can just flash his #8 back to get the ROM back to "default" so to speak.
I use Chad's and Ziggy's because I've gotten the best battery life with those on EVO based ROM's. Give it a shot, if it doesn't make a noticeable difference, flash another, and if nothing makes a difference, maybe try another ROM just to see what kind of battery life that would yield.

His ROM included Lou's #8. I tried A Ziggy and no luck, still had terrible battery. I then tried Lou's #9 and i would swear my battery has preformed 3 times better. I didn't think there was that big a difference between the two.

Yes, I wiped every thing before I installed. I always do.

i have been reading silently through many of the discussions, and im not even gonna say im an expet or anything like that. i have done a few things and am getting used to doing this kinda stuff.... exactly how do u flash a new kernal? ( just a question) so go easy.

That's weird. On a stock build (using the kernel that came with it), I'm getting around 30 hrs on a 1500mah battery. (This is with light to medium usage)
Do you have setcpu installed?
Check your battery report, and check to see if 'Display' has been turning off correctly. I've seen a few roms where something got wonky with either Facebook sync, or exchange preventing the screen from turning off for any length of time. ('Time On' should be much lower than 'Time since unplugged')

[Q] Kernel Advice for a CM Noob!

Alrighty,
So, to make a long story short, I had been using Fresh Evo rom since about September/October. About 2 weeks ago, I went to upgrade my rom, and through multiple poor decisions and sheer stupidity, I bricked my phone. Anyways, new phone arrives, gets fixed, etc. I root and install CM7. I've been using it since Friday, and I very much like it. However, I do seem to be having a slight problem. I feel as if my battery is draining a lot faster than it was when I was using my 2.2 Fresh rom. I am planning on doing the battery stats wipe later on tonight. Anyways, to my question: What kernel options are there for CM7 AOSP Roms? I'm am woefully ignorant on the subject, and the searching I've done on the subject has left me more or less confused.
Many thanks,

My savior from my brick thread! Thank you! Follow up question: I was reading part of the Savaged-zen thread in the android development section and people were talking about SBC charging. Some of the stuff I've read has made it seem like it is a dangerous type of charging, while other are getting absolutely absurd amounts of life out of their batteries while using it
So... is it a SBC kernel? Is it worth risking messing up the battery? Any thoughts/suggestions/comments are much appreciated.

-Cape flaps in the wind- I have returned!
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=894880 Best info on kernels.
Personally, I don't use SBC because 1: It can make your phone laggy at times, which is annoying 2: It can and has proven to be bad for the battery, in terms of leaking/exploding on people. Yes people have gotten ridiculous [not gona lie] nice battery on it, because it pushes lower voltages at time to get the max charge, so it actually takes longer to charge, but holds it longer. Great in the short run, bad in long term, but again, I personally wouldn't recommend it.

Hmm... A lot to think about. I'm using the default CM kernel right now. I pulled my phone off the charger at work around 2:30. I was using Wifi tether until 3:00. I've made a few phone calls, sent about a dozen texts, browsed around on facebook and what not. Found out that facebook was eating up my phone with 40 minutes of partial wake usage, made some adjustments so facebook *hopefully* won't do that again. Was at about 70% Rebooted the phone. I'm currently at 68% at 5:15. My room is also in a basement, so I'm sure my signal strength is fairly poor and that probably isn't helping either. Still, I feel like I'm going through this battery a little too quick for my tastes.
Maybe I'm going to have to look into getting the Seido 3500 battery, and cover, and car holster >.>
I'm going to try to give it a few days. I just did a battery stat reset, so I'm going to let it die, recharge, then see how it pans out. In the meantime--I'm thinking about checking out Savaged-zen. Maybe read through those 200 pages of posts :-\

Well give it a few days to settle in, and wifi tether is definately a power drainer, even for me and all users. I typically only use it when things get bad enough and i need to get on xbl, or download torrents slowly, cuz I'm at school >>. Also the spotty signal area definably doesn't help either. And if you check out the OP page, the first couple, and the last few, you should be okay. I'm having good life on the Tiamat kernel personally. Also, you can change your governor to smartass or conservative, both yield good battery life.

Question about bloatware...

So I rooted my SGS2 today, and started cleaning out some bloatware. When I got to T-Mobile's "My Account/My Device" app, and removed it... suddenly I was faced with a force close loop for an app with "sihome" in the name. Once I restored the app (luckily I back everything up first), the force close stopped. Any ideas?

Once you remove those apps, just reboot your phone and you should be good.
same thing happened to me and i was good after a reboot.

Thanks buddy! Found this thread and it solved my problem too.

I would just simply flash a custom ROM that already has the bloat removed to avoid the issue. If you want to remain as stock as possible yet gain some bonuses, give Jugs rom a go.

Hows the battery life and speed of Juggs? Does it still have CIQ?

Speed is great for my needs, its a little laggy between transitions which I'm sure can be adjusted by overclocking but at defaults, it makes up for great battery life. As far as CIQ goes I'm unsure, I'd be glad to find out for you if you point me in the right direction

Its okay, I was on Jugg thread earlier researching. I was going through all the ROMs trying to find one that I would like, but not having a whole lot of luck finding one. Im not really huge on flashing roms like some people here. I tend to research and then when I find a good one I tend to stick with it. I was interested in doing BeastMod but the Development on that rom is gone from what I have heard. Not sure which one to try that is fast and good battery life.

[Q] Frustrated newbie needs help

About eight months ago I traded in my Verizon BlackBerry for a Droid Incredible 2, but I still have a LOT to learn, so please bare with me
When I got my Inc2 I immediately got it rooted & flashed with a LOT of help as it took numerous steps and two days to complete. So from day one I've been using Skyraider Zeus, and have really enjoyed it. But recently the battery icon has started turning red with an exclamation point. After having been told by a number of people that this sounded like a battery issue, so I purchased a new battery. Unfortunately that didn't solve the issue. It was then suggested that I flash a new ROM to see if that would fix it. I assumed it would, to an extent, since most ROM's use different battery icon images.
So I traded (begrudgingly) my beloved Skyraider Zeus this weekend for ViperINC 1.3.1. Unfortunately I only used this ROM about 24-hours because I could no longer use wireless tether, which for me was a deal-breaker
I then traded ViperINC for Magnolia 2.1.1, which I very much liked because it was so similar to Skyraider Zeus, and I was once again able to use my wireless tether. Unfortunately I started experiencing the red battery icon issue again, as well as it would not allow me to connect my Google account, thus preventing me from using a lot of features.
So last night I went back to the nandroid backup from over the weekend and am now back to my beloved Skyraider Zeus *SMH*
All this having been said, I have two questions....
First... does anyone have an idea of what could be causing the issue with the battery icon turning red?
Second... can anyone recommend a ROM similar to Skyraider Zeus that can handle my excessive use (email, web, SMS & voice), that supports wireless tether and (if possible) allows me to take screenshots (preferably from the power button like Skyraider)? Oh, and the fewer steps to flash, the better LOL!
Thanks in advance to those who reply!!

It means the phone can't read the battery information (charge level, temperature, etc)... I would first try pulling out the battery and checking the contacts on the battery and the phone. If they are bent or messed up, return the phone to stock and take it back to Verizon for a replacement.

Thanks for the reply, antoniodz95!
I had a number of people suggest it was a battery issue, but cleaning the contacts didn't solve it, so I just got a new battery. But even with the new battery it still happens. I've had days where it barely happens at all, and then I have days where it will stay red almost all day. So I'm thinking it isn't a battery issue at all, but instead is something with the device itself. Which is why I tried a new ROM over the weekend, but again the issue persisted.
Also, I purchased the device outright from someone, so taking it into Verizon isn't an option. That is why I am hoping someone will know how I can fix it since it doesn't appear to be the battery or the ROM causing it
Thanks again!

Your problem definitely sounds like a hardware issue. It could be as simple as a lose connection on the back side of the battery contacts inside your phone. If it isn't negatively affecting the phone's actual battery life and you don't want to crack open the case, you may just have to accept it's imperfection.
As for Rom suggestions... In all honesty, if SkyRader works for you, stick with it. It really is one of the most complete, thorough, and fully functionl GB-basd Sense Roms available for the phone. You could give UKB Evolution a try. But being ICS-based will lend to some "quirks" that may or may not dissuade you from using it.

My wife's phone has the same issue and it is stock unrooted. If memory serves me correctly doesn't skyraider have the option to hide the battery from the status bar? If so just hide it so you don't see it and maybe get a battery widget. The widget may not work either. My wife's phone works fine so it doesn't appear to affect it. And I agree with the above statement that skyraider is hard to beat. As far as gingerbread sense it is my go to rom. I always keep it on my phone in case my phone acts up and I need something dependable.

It's hard to say if it's having a negative affect or not. My battery has drained like crazy since day one, but I don't know if it's a normal amount of battery drain or not, nor do I know what causes it. I am a heavy user at times, but there are still those days where it seems to drain much quicker than it should in my opinion. All I do know is when compared to my old BlackBerry, this device is as bad and even sometimes worse when it comes to battery drain.
As far as ROM's go, I think I will just stick with Skyraider unless something really catches my eye, especially since the whole process really isn't all that fun for me LOL!
Thanks again!!

I don't honestly know if it can be hid or not to tell you the truth. But it isn't that it bothers me, it just concerns me is all. Especially when I started looking into possible causes and had even the most Android knowledgeable people I know stumped. But it doesn't appear that there is any cut and dry explanation for it, so I guess all I can do is wait hope whatever it is doesn't get worse.
In the meantime I will be sticking with Skyraider. It was nice having a different appearance for the weekend, but it sure wasn't worth all the function that was lost.
Thanks again!!

Its probably hardware but you might try clearing battery stats in recovery. That will probably not do anything but it won't hurt. For full functionality if you want something different try cm7 or the gb miui.

We have 2 DI2 - one has been running SR Zeus continuously (95% of the time) for 15+ months with no issues, with light usage & minimal mobile data/3G - get 3 days+ of standby as it's mostly on voice calls. Mine has been flashed with variety of Roms sourced from XDA, been running lately on HTCI2-MROM based on CM7, battery life is a notch better or equal to SK Zeus - otherwise, it runs on the following Stock Sense Rom, which has nice tweaks - very similiar and as good as Zeus, if not better. It has given me good battery / standby time - average of 2 to 3 days, 25 to 30 hours if I'm really pushing it (tethering, GPS, video streaming, etc.)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1219471
What Recovery are you using - as others suggested, it could be hardware issues (loose connection/dropped or even (*gasp*) water-damaged pre-owned device that you are now holding, especially with a brand new/fresh battery & HTC's OEM batteries are very good, my old HTC Ozone running Windows 6 is still holding a great charge with its original battery after 4 years.
I would suggest letting the battery drain and fully charge it, go into Recovery & wipe battery stats and use it normally - let it run and stablize for 2 or 3 cycles with the new battery, and see how it go. Keep the "old" battery charged as a spare and carry it with you for the next few days so that you won't be holding a paperweight.
Assumed you are on the CDMA/Verizon side and not using GSM bands - are you using mostly WiFi or 3G, or a mix of both signals - as all of these do affect (depending on signal strength) your battery life, and that your PRL (*228 option 2) are updated on a regular basis. Running background Apps such as FB, Twitter, etc. also do affect how much usable time you get on a charge, as you know.

Have you tried fixing permissions? Could be the issue.
