There is a gps fix for cm7 also y use a different app for hotspot all aosp roms come with a built in hotspot?

+1 both GPS and Hotspot work fine for me on CM7

Honestly, the best battery life I've ever had was with Kings Bliss Sense 3.5, which is a bit unfortunate considering it's fairly buggy and unreliable.
I switched back to Synergy because it's reliable and it's a Sense ROM, but my battery life won't last even a day now.
(I've tried a million different kernels with Synergy already, none of them improved it significantly)

The best I ever had was with Koni III and NetArchy SBC HAVs More kernel.
Unbelievably, I could go days without recharging.

Stormy Day 1.0
Stormy Day is an amazing 3.0 rom that gives me an amazing battery life. also if you have your wifi on and running if found it to double the life

i agree with nerdyboy, the stormy day rom or any of the varities are good battery saver roms, they have tweaked it allot, i used to go 4-6 hrs on a reg sense 3.0 rom. now i go 8-10 hrs. and thats with usage. they know their stuff.

CM7 works great for me. The GPS works first.e as well as the wireless tether. Keep CM7 and then start flashing different kernels and find out which one works best for the battery. I'm using the Poonkang kernel right now and its mediocre. Some of the toast kernels are pretty good as well as tiamat. I had one before that was amazing but for the life of me I can't remember which one it was.

Which Gingerbread (AOSP) kernel have people had the best battery life with?

I just flashed CM7 RC4, and the battery life is aweful, and it seems that most kernes I try its hard to tell how good the battery life is, what have people had good experiences with on with Gingerbread kernels for Inc?
In general, I've had pretty good luck with chad's incredikernel (I'm on 3.18.2011). Invisiblek #34 wasn't bad, either.
tiamat ive been getting a day or 2, and it has fast charging. it did have a wakeing issue with the older versions but thats taken care of now
I'm using invisiblek and getting through the day no problem on the stock battery.

Another vote for chad's incredikernel here. It's served me well in MIUI.
I actually found that the stock kernel on CM7 works the best for me, we very light use I can easily blow through 2 days and then some. Otherwise most of the time I'm moderately using my phone during classes playing Angry Birds/other games, apps, wifi, and I'm still able to at least get 10 hours out of it.

[Q] Sense Kernels

I'm getting bored with AOSP roms, and I want to switch to Sense, but I need good battery life. Which kernel should I use? I've tried Incredikernel previously on sense and it doesnt give good battery life, so what should I get/what should I do to get good battery life. I can't have my phone die when I'm at work.
If battery life is your main concern then stick with aosp. But, for sense kernels, Lou's #8 worked well for me. Haven't tried ziggy's personally but some people seem to have good luck with them.

Add my vote for Lous#8, I tried a few and have settled on this one, been using it for a couple weeks now and its been stable and I love the built in power profiles. No need to mess with setCPU any longer.
Lou's #8 +1 Also Chad's 12/23 kernel worked great, and its good if you want to overclock. But I got best performance and battery with Lou's
FWIW, Lou's didn't work well for me - probably something about my setup. Chad's has been the one I always go back to.

That's what everyone wants. Good battery life is not something that Android is known for. People are generally happy to get around 12 to 14 hours with average use. Fast... they're all fast or slow. What are you going to do wit it?
You're going to have get the Evo and see what yours does and then go from there, usage will vary. The worst battery life I've had is around eight hours and the best is around 24 hours. Others have reported battery lives of 30 hours and others overclocked their Evos.
Get it and see what yours does.
I came from a vibrant, the evo is much better. The only things I miss from the vibrant is the 16 gig internal storage and the screen. But I'm way happier with the evo. The screen is still nice, and it just works like its supposed to. I'm using fresh 4.1.1.0, stock kernel, fast and stable, average battery life
We're comin from a pure power source.
i use decks rom with sz kernel sbc with vipermods script and get amazin battery life but
the best rom with battery life ive used is myns warm 2.2 with netarchy sbc kernel and myns warm 2.2 rom is great good theme beuatiful lokking and everything workin

That was my previous set-up above, a very nice ROM.
I'm running Kings Alliance R6.2 ROM now, battery life is good and is very fast. The theme is awesome and so are the animations, that takes some away from battery life, but its a small price to pay. You can turn off animations if you want to.

[Q]what is the best Rom for battery life from recent Roms

what is are the best roms for battery life and speed. I have found that CM7 with Tiamat sbc can get me up to 12-16hrs and the new Salvage Mod Sense gets me almost the same amount of life. I don't have a preference as far as AOSP or Sense just want good battery life....
Kings are great.
can't remember if Kings were ACS or MikG.
I think they are MikG. I am using Kinged Shooter and getting around 15 hrs with moderate use.

[Q] Your favorite daily ROM?

Swagged out stock is a clean fast Sense 1.0 rom that i've been using for months. There's a lot you can customize so you can get some better battery life. In general, the stock battery is what it is.

I like any of the sense 1.0 roms for quickness, battery and responsiveness. Classic rom, Digital Karma, Nitrous. U use Set CPU and make a profile for screen off. Use power save governor if kernel allows so while locked it will only run at lowest speed. This is helpful on any from though. Hope this helps.
I feel more like I do now then I did then.
I've been jumping back in and forth with JMZ's CM9 ROM and Cyanogenmod's CM7. I never had a Sense phone, so this was my first. After being with the OG Samsung Moment for about 3 years, until the developers fled, I was so used the classic UI. When I was introduced to Sense, I never stuck on to me. Luckily, I barely got this phone this year, meaning most CM7 ROMs were stable with ICS at hand. If you a Sense guy, I would recommend the Classic ROM or the Nitrous ROM. Nitrous gives more of the original Sense experience, but the Classic ROM gives really impressive battery life. It has a lot of available tweaks to play with. My ONLY problem with the ROM is the boot sound LMAO. I never thought i could hear my phone be that loud.
I, too, am running jmz unofficial cm9, & it's great for me but maybe not for her. The issue with battery life, however, is not the ROM; it's more likely the screen & radios that are killing it. My solution has been two-part: using Juice Defender to customize data activity, & larger aftermarket batteries (ChiChiTec - Amazon).
ive been using most of decks roms lately, but if i had to choose a reliable rom it would be synergy. its a little outdated but everything works.
Digitalkarma v7 fast smooth and everything works
