I know this is an opinion based question, but based on experience with these ROMs, is one superior to the other in battery life and customization? I am debating on which to flash next as I am currently on Myn's Warm TwoPointTwo. How do they compare with Myn's? thanks in advance!
I've flashed both not sure if I can help though I like both of them but one thing with mikfroyo is that it looks stock now but there is some mods for it on their site I like cm7 I'm using it now still trying to get the bugs worked out thats the only problem I have with it is the GPS problems and some other small things but I don't mind it keeps me busy and I love flashing so if your looking for something thats going to work right from the door go with mik if you don't mind messing with the ROM and tweaking some things cm7 is pretty fast and its GB......

cm7 for sure. try it for liek a week you'll never want anything else again. just need ssome getting used to.
I've tried CM7 once before and experienced significantly slower internet and wifi speeds. When I would connect to facebook it would take close to 2 minutes to refresh the app. Also the internet took longer to load webpages so I decided to flash back to Myn's.

Based on my experiences, the best rom i used for battery life was Myn's twopointtwo, second was Mikfroyo, and third is CM7.
I use vealpak as my daily ROM with nat's 4.3.4 cfs havs more sbc kernel and that ROM works perfect for me great battery great everything if you haven't tried that one you should give it a go you'll definitely be happy with it I think... Lol

CM7...I can get 19hrs at 55% left on stock battery. Great fast rom, stable, everything working. I recommend it with the Tiamat kernel.
Imo, mikfroyo is the best ROM for sense, esp now with all the customizations they have with such way access. it's always been faster fire me than any other sense rom, has everything working and gets good battery life.
That said, sense is worthless. Cm7 is where it's at. faster, better battery, theme engine, less crap running in the background.
It took me a but of back and forth to figure it out, but now I only go back for epst.
To the person with message problems, back up, flash a sense ROM, sends some texts/mms to some people you want to, then write and restore cm7.

I once got 3 days 8 hours on my unrooted phone. That was with minimal use until I finally gave in and decided to kill the battery by facebooking and internet use.
Yesterday w/ Tiamat on CM7, I was at 58% with 1 day, 5 hrs. I could get more I never touched it, but what's the point then?
well i'm the outcast at school and I let the phone go unbothered awaiting a text from someone, anyone. that text never came... true story. :/
I just installed MikFroyo after being on CM7 for a few months. Oddly enough, even though it's a Sense rom, it seems a bit faster. Haven't been on it long enough to see the difference in battery life, so far it looks similar to CM7. I miss my Gingerbread dialer and music app, but I can live without them easier than I can live without the Sense camera. Plus the speed, and not having to mess around trying to make vvm work right, and I'm fairly happy so far.

So here's my situation.
Saw that Google killed some apps today. Looked on my phone and sure enough I had two games (Chess and Falling Ball). Knowing that a factory reset from the phone settings wouldn't actually erase any rooting that these apps could have done, I decided to install the official HTC RUU. Tried to run it and got an error about the bootloader being incompatible. Tried a few things, but nothing made a difference.
Now I'm at a crossroads. I need to clear off this crap. I figured, ok, let's go ahead and root the phone and maybe even a custom ROM that way I'm sure any remnants of the app are gone. Problem is I haven't found an easy way to tell which ROMs are good, which ones aren't (by that I mean are stable and let me use wifi/bluetooth/gps without issues), and that allow me to use Exchange/activesync still.
I looked at Cyanogenmod, but they are telling my that wifi/bluetooth/gps don't work. I don't care if it has sense or not, but again, I need those things to work as well as exchange.
If all else fails I'll go back to the stock firmware, but I need to be sure that I've cleared off any changes these apps may have caused. Thanks.
Flash virtuous rom, its nearly 100% stock, but rooted, very stable.
Ya gotta root first tho.

Skyraider Sense is a very stable rom too. Just throwing some options out there for you.
Sent from my Droid Incredible running Myn's Warm TwoPointTwo RLS5.3.
Incredibly Reengineered is awesome. apparently theres an issue with MMS with wifi on or something but I haven't experienced it yet.. Other than that my bluetooth wifi and gps all work flawlessly and super fast. Virtuous is good if you want your phone pretty much stock. Depends on preference.
Most ROMS have a buglist somewhere in the original post that says what the issues are. Cyanogenmod 6.1 is very stable, but it's AOSP not sense.
Many AOSP ROM's lack solid stability, so if I were you I'd try sticking with Sense based ROM's at first- and if you want to venture out a little further then there are some pretty sweet AOSP ROM's that are for the most part quite stable.
I've been sticking with Sky Raider 3.5 for a while now, I've tried a few other ROM's but always came back to good 'ol SR3.5. It's speedy, great battery life, and a couple added features that are very nice to have.
As always, be absolutely sure you make a complete backup of your phone before ever starting to flash anything. Also make sure you read through your ROM thread thoroughly so you won't run into any problems.
As most have said SkyRaider 3.5 is a great first Rom to start with. It was my first. I've since moved to Warm 2.2, and for the most part it is stable and I've had no problems. I really want to move to Warm Z though and test out the new Sense 2.0.
Definitely root. You will be missing out if you don't.

A previous user posted that the AOSP ROM's tend to have stability issues? I haven't experienced this and to be honest, my favorite ROM used to be Mynn's Warm... LOVED IT!!! That is until I went to CM7 (currently running #11).
Can't go wrong with Skyraider 3.5 or Mynn's Warm. If you want to go with the gingerbread ROM then CM7 has worked VERY well for me.
Good luck !!!

give another vote for skyraider sense 3.5. that was the only rom that i used until making the switch to cm7. everything you said that you need you should have no trouble getting to work with either of these roms. as was also mentioned previously make sure you look at the known issues lists for each rom you decide to check out, which should be located in each respective op.
Thanks for all the suggestions. I ended up going with Cyanogenmod7 RC2 afterall. Android 2.3.3 and everything works perfectly as far as I've been able to tell. Better battery life too it seems. Thanks again for the suggestions. I may try a few of them so that I can get a feel for each.

BYUsinger84 did you do anything special in flashing Cyanogenmod7 RC2 or did you just do a factory reset , wipe , cache wipe . then flash .
Good choice with CM7. I flash the nightlies whenever they're released and have yet to have a single problem. It's surprising stable and functional.
Skyraider Sense was my first ROM as well, and I loved it, but I could never get rid of CM7 now. It's just got everything I could want and more.

I actually installed RC1 and then RC2 came out, but yes that's how I flashed the first time. I did it all from the clockworkmod recovery screen. I tried to flash from the ROMManager but quickly learned, that doesn't work so well.
I'm not picky here, I just want a stable ROM with 4G and the main stuff working. I just ask that for something with good battery life. I'm currently using Baked Snacks 1.9 and it drains crazy fast.
On a side note, hopefully the installation is easy. Are all the new ROM's requiring you to wipe the SD card, format, etc? What happened to just installing the zip?
I recommend CM7. Use the 7.0.1 stable version.

The voice mail does work:
-on a sense rom, verify the app works
-backup the app and data with titanium backup
-flash back to CM7
-restore app and data with titanium backup
I use google voice, but I personally like that.
I'll give it a try then! Any ideas on kernel? Stick with stock or is there a recommended one for battery life?

For CM7, Timatt kernel...3.3.7 or 4.02 are the best. DO NOT USE 4.0.0, as it broke cameras left and right.

Destroyer v2 rom or end of days
it's awsome with transitions battery life suks but wwith a custom kernel it's badass
and if u want great battery life flash a kernel for a aosp rom try tiamat's 4.0.2 sbc or savaged zen
for a sense based rom try netarchy oh and dude if u like ur rom but hate battery life u can just flash a kernel
It could be something other than the rom. Have you tried calibrating your battery? If you're in a crappy coverage area, flashing a new rom won't help (much). Also be sure to turn off your radios when not in use - 3g/4g, wifi, gps, bluetooth, etc. When I can, I use wifi. It saves a ton of battery over 3g/4g and it's always faster... at least for me.
But I'd still flash a new rom, just for fun
Sent from my Evo using Tapatalk
try the original destoryer rom( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=988684&highlight=destroyer ) along with tiamats 3.3.8 or tiamats 3.3.8 with sbc depending if you like sbc or not ( http://www.tiamat-aosp.com/downloads.php/ ). i get about 14-20 hours of moderate to heavy use.
do cm7 for sure.
both of the destroyers are based on cm7, and both are sadly out of date. end of days is the newer version of destroyer, and is more in date, but still flash cm7 nightly.
i would wait until the next nightly comes out. that'll have fixed mms. or just flash stable 7.0.3.1.
either way tiamat 4.0.2 is the bomb.
agreed... cm7 nightlies with tiamat 4.0.2 is killer

for battery life you can get that with ANY rom. just need to do a little more homework on whats going on with your phones curent congifuration.
Virusrom Gingersense is awesome. Lockscreen and tabs in notification and sweet ass sweet. Long as you use stock kernal everything works.

Has anybody run both of these? Which do you find better? I am a huge myn/virus fan so Synergy appeals to me, but I have only heard good things about roms beginning in "Mik". Any feedback is appreciate
I'm gonna flash Mik's this morning, so I'll be back to report on it, but there are a ton of threads where people talk about their experience with the ROM, like Mik's thread in the DEV section,
I was looking for a direct comparison...believe me I've been pouring over both threads. I think I'll go with Mik for right now (I have access to Myn donor site though) & maybe switch over in a few nightlies.
To be fair, we can't really compare until Synergy is finished & released.
Synergy is still in testing so if you want to contribute to the beta, give the nightlies a go & report back.
MikG 2.1+3.0 is pretty much complete, it feels like the update we should've got from Sprint/HTC.

Weird, I thought TB was included when I flashed it...
.....ROM that works....been flashing ROMs for a while now and can't seem to find something that's stable enough to use daily...besides one I would rather not name so I don't look biased....
I know ALOT of hard work goes into these ROMs & it is quite a pain in the ass dealing with people complaining about every little detail, but why release something with alot of bugs?
If a ROM constantly freezes, removes apps by itself, reboots by itself repeatedly, force closes every 10 minutes, needs 3 scripts to be run before it works and/or only 1/2 of the tools/gadgets on the device work correctly then maybe it shouldn't be released as fast.
I GREATLY APPRECIATE ALL THE WORK by all the Devs on this (and other) forums...do not take this personal anyone, please.
If someone knows of a somewhat-stable ROM PLEASE point me in that direction.
I know how to flash ROMs & kernels and wipe everything and do all the backups & whatnot....not following directions is not the problem....
I have done what is recommended by so many members of this forum---"just download & try them for yourself"....I've done that, but can't seem to find a decent ROM/kernel combo....
if anyone can offer a recommendation it would be greatly appreciated.

I found decks rom to be good and stable with real good battery life. I've tried it with tiamat kernels they were ok but my phone I decided my phone likes the stock kernel the best.

Read the entire OP, so you can learn all the nuances and head over to miui.us for all the support you'd ever need.
I am looking for a fast, battery efficient and stable daily driver. I have tried probably close to a dozen different ROMs where each had a feature I liked, the bugs drew me away. Currently, I am running CM7 with 2.3.7 gingerbread. I like it but it freezes and reboots every now and then (seemingly whenever I go to use the phone, sometimes loses user data on first boot after a freeze up). I am running low on patience with flashing and reflashing different ROMs, pulling my user apps back and all that jazz, was looking if anybody had suggestions on a great ROM that fits the bill. I would like to use Sense, but obviously am not grounded to that option. Thanks in advance for anyone looking to help out.
If you're not crazy about 4G, then MIUI is the ROM for you. It's stable (according to personal experience; All the bugs people ramble about are obsolete), customizable, and fast. They're currently incorporating ICS keyboard and market into the latest version.
MIUI has been my smoothest, bug free, battery effiecient, as well as most customizable ROM so far. Run it with savagedzen SBC, and I get insane battery life. Was at 18 hours moderate use at barely 51%.

I would go with mikg primexl 3D or MIUI

Stability and reliability has to be Tommy tomatoes 004

I am looking for a fast, battery efficient and stable daily driver. I have tried probably close to a dozen different ROMs where each had a feature I liked, the bugs drew me away. Currently, I am running CM7 with 2.3.7 gingerbread. I like it but it freezes and reboots every now and then (seemingly whenever I go to use the phone, sometimes loses user data on first boot after a freeze up). I am running low on patience with flashing and reflashing different ROMs, pulling my user apps back and all that jazz, was looking if anybody had suggestions on a great ROM that fits the bill. I would like to use Sense, but obviously am not grounded to that option. Thanks in advance for anyone looking to help out.

click on the link in my sig to see all updated aosp roms/kernels seeing as you are running an aosp rom now then the thread should be helpful. also feel free to ask questions or leave comments. hope it helps ^_^
Thanks for the responses guys, ill research each of these. 4g is not in my area so im not really crazy about it. What does the free internal memory look like on these ROMs? The one fallback of the EVO is only 1GB of internal memory.

Its always a personal choice but judging by the post.. I would say to go for Myn RLS 5. This is a froyo but you can always get some gingerbread stuff like launchers, keyboard (extremely fast and responsive) and titlebar mods etc.
Do the radio updates and make sure you are running suggested kernels on that forum thread. Switch your apps to SD card and you should be good to go.
