I just rooted my EVO 4g and I want to know what the best Rom is. I want better battery life, speed and performance...help please.

I'm using the xplod rom put out by team noctournal combined with tiamat 4.0.7 sbc kernel. The rom is fast as hell, especially considering its still in beta but most everything works. Wifi, 4g, cameras.... They are working on the next release which will fix a few small issues. As far as my kernel I am going on 9 hours off the charger with moderate use and I'm at 47% still.

Well my phone charges fast but it also dies fast.. any help?

can you provide details? like how long it takes to charge/discharge? if you're using a custom kernel or what rom you're using? can't help if you just give a vague description of the problem
SBC stock HTC #15 kernel, fresh ROM, it charges 10% in like 10 minutes, and dies under 6 hours and all u do is text nothing else!

If you leave 4g on it will eat your battery in 6 hours easy
Swyped from a galaxy far far away......
hmm have you tried calibrating the battery? or try a different kernel? sometimes problems like these are kernel related. I know that certain kernels have drained my battery faster than others.
Nope don't use 4g, & when phone is idle it dies 10% in 8hrs of idle but after that .. man under 30 minutes it goes down another 10% or less

well honestly that's pretty normal especially for a sense rom but maybe if you try calibrating the battery and erasing battery stats, that could help you out. Also try not to have GPS on unless it's necessary. That also drains your battery. Or try a different kernel like netarchy's kernel and if it's a non-havs kernel then combine it with setcpu.
What are you using?
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App
well I'm not on a sense rom so I'm running a savaged-zen kernel but when I WAS on a sense rom I used this one http://qap.la/~netarchy/netarchy-toastmod-4.3.2-cfs-nohavs-nosbc-noUV-universal-signed.zip
y/netarchy-toastmod-4.3.2-cfs-nohavs-nosbc-noUV-universal-signed.zip It's cfs, has no havs so I could use it with setcpu and wasn't SBC because I don't like to mess with my battery that way.
What rom are you on?

I'm on cm 6.1.2, I use the stable .0.4 savaged-zen kernel without SBC and with Wimax. and I average about 20-22 hours every day with moderate-heavy usage.
Why not use cm7 wimax?
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App
If it's charging too fast and dropping to fast, I would guess you need to calibrate it.

For some reason I just prefer cm 6.1.2 but I'm fine with waiting for the stable cm7 to come out. I use a kernel with Wimax because all of the savaged-zen kernels are Wimax capable.
Honestly though, try calibrating the battery and then either use the kernel you have now or a different one but always remember to wipe cache/dalvik-cache
I'm about to flash cm7 wimax, and what can I have my brightness set to?
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App
you can use auto brightness. I usually keep it on the lowest because I find the others to be too bright for me personally and when I'm in bright places I set it to auto. By the way if you use the savaged-zen kernels, set the wifi sleep policy to never to avoid random reboots.
Any one have ideas for battery saving kernels?
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA Premium App
Well... everyone is different, and all phones take each kernel different. It all depends in your usage and what things you're running. You have to try out different kernels and see. You can try SBC type kernels they work great on my phone. Give that a try. Search and look for kernels in the search box. Hope this helps

kernel
might want to try netarchys kernels they are great....hes the best
Savaged Savaged Savaged!!
Savaged-zen is an amazing kernel, plus it has SBC which I love. Great battery life, quick. What more could you want?
I personally have good battery with the Tiamat kernel; sbc available if you want it.
OK...first post so here we go. Been using the destroyer rom and the latest sav-zen kernal (v.0.2.0 cfs) for the last two days. My phone responds pretty smooth even being underclocked. The battery life is great compared to stock...yesterday with light-moderate use I was at 17 hours with 30% left. Today over 12 hours of light use but jumping in and out of roaming for about four hours and I'm at 64%. Great job to all the devs

Which ROM is the best ROM for the Evo4G? The most famous ROMs that I always read about is Cyanogen and MIUI?
which has a better battery life?
I'm using cm7 and thimat kernal not bad so far

Try them both...
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA Premium App
In my experience MIUI and CM are on similar footing when it comes to battery; it could go either way since they are both pretty similar (MIUI is based off of CM).

World peace with no regard for human life.
If you like Sense, I recommend the MikG 2.45 rom. You can then experiment with the new Freedom kernels (currently at version 0.8, with varying versions (stock, less, more, aggressive) which have different degrees of undervolting built in for improved battery life.
I went ahead and tried CM7 on the EVO 4G and it works flawlessly.
I'm sure I can save more battery life if I use SetCpu profiles? Is it o.k. to use setCPU profiles with the kernel that comes with CM7? Or is there a better kernel to use?
Also, i prefer SetCPU profiles because I can use the screen-off profile to underclock and save battery when my phone is not in use.
Miui is not based off of cyanogenmod. Miui is better anyway. IMO that is.

I love sense 3.0 Roms and you should definitely try one of kings Roms and any other out there. Anyways, if you like aosp then you should def try decks. Great on battery and works flawlessly. His Rom also has the cyanogen settings to overclock and go into detail with your phone
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App
I have to say Decks ROM is the best I've used. Its very stable and smooth as silk. Using the SavagedZen with BFS Kernel got me excellent battery life...
So far its out of Kinged kingdom or Kings Alliance. My kid sat on my phone and played gun bros for about 4 hours yesterday around midday 10ish - 2 o'clock and the battery still had a little juice left(had not been charged since like 7am). Alliance is a little better to me only cuz it has the hacked hotspot(no error 67).
The Baked Snack ROMs are renowned for battery life.

Tiamat 3.3.7

Been rocking sense lately but nothing beats decks + savagedzen + vipermod + supercharger v6 for battery life and performance.
Edit: ......in my opinion
could you tell me where you download these from?
including the SavagedZen with BFS Kernel ?
thank you

Miui syncs up with the cyanogenmod tree quite frequently actually. While its not based off of cm their vendor trees are.

So ive been bouncing around from rom to rom and I'm wondering wat rom is everyone using as a daily???? .. I'm a prime XL Guy and love tha rom as my daily but the battery life is way better on cm7 with tiamat or savaged ... trying to find the best rom/kernel combo for battery life... I love sense for the bells and whistles but love asop because of the battery life.... hmmmmm.. decisions decisions....

MIUI. It's pretty, has nice built in apps including an awesome theme manager (no social networking though, if you're into that), and you still get great battery life. It's not bloated, but I find it to be the intermediate between Sense and your typical AOSP roms. I've been running one version or another of it for almost a year.

My custom made cm7.2 kanged and compiled from source is my daily now, prior to that was my own modded version of decks 1.3 for sense mikg 3.0 or the classic and ics my compiled and frankensteined cm9 I have it on my evo and my kindle fire
We are legion, for we are many
I've been running the express beta for about a month now. Fast, relatively bug free, and I can get 2 full days out of my extended battery.
Edit: and it has 4G, wouldn't run a ROM without that...
Thanks for the replies.... I've tried the classic v005 and like it a lot... even tho its sense 1.0 it works.... was going to try the final RC mix rom from Jan 24th with the anthrax kernel v4 and see how it goes .. hopefully I get great performance as well as battery life.... since I'm a heavy user lol

I'd say the ROM doesn't particularily matter in regard to battery life. As long as you have a rooted rom, your best bet would be to use a CPU tuner to underclock your device using usage profiles for maximum battery life.
For gb i found juggernaut and synergy. Ics kernel development is underway though so we will find out soon enough. I believe tdj released his tmobile build with venom kernel.

TDJ roms
I have tried so many roms and always ended up installing/restoring TDJ roms.
either GB or ICS, his roms are always fast, functional and smooth daily drivers IMO.
you can't go wrong with TDJ roms. give it a try.
I suggest juggernaut for gb. It gave me on average 16-19 hrs of battery life. Darkside is really good to for ics. Although for me it hasn't given me such great battery as juggernaut. BeastMOD 5.0 is another one that in my book give the BEST battery life. I could go more then a day with moderate use.i miss it:/ lol
Sent from my SGH-T989 using xda premium
Any of the CM7 based roms by Eugene or Beastmod 4.0 by Melvin.
Its very subjective based on your phone, kernal used and how you use your phone. I have seen the best battery life with TDJ roms and now recently I am running Chimeria vs Hercules and batter life is pretty good.
