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

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...

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.

Like it says. What is your favorite rom and why? I've always been a cyanogen mod Guy cause that's what I first started on. Recently I've looked into alot of rom's, I just keep coming back to cm. Post link to your rom also please.

Whats a good sense rom thats stable?i mean everything ive seen has somethin messed up like 4g,sms errors...multiple bugs.i need something stable,where u dont need to keep flashing back n forth.froyo gingerbread i dont care my main concerns are a smooth performance with optimal battery life,i possibly wanna put in an SBC kernel....

How about for myself.
I have my EVO flashed over to MetroPCS and currently have Metrodroid2.2 running on the phone. Would I be best to continue running with that ROM, or switching over to CM7.1 along with a patch from the Metrodroid thread for MMS?
What is best for me?
SNS Gingerbread v1.4.1
I like the SNS Gingerbread v1.4.1 because it has a smooth, simple look. Also, I noticed a little boost in battery life.

Oh, sorry.
For stability, try MikG. No issues for me. I quite personally use r3chargeD, it is so awesome and I have AMAZING battery life. I think the update to come for it will make it impossibly awesome
ChopSuey kernel is my personal preference
Sent from my PC36100 using xda premium
Give the latest SalvageMod AOSP ROM a try you can use Tiamat's SBC kernel if that's what you prefer. Coming from CM7, I like this one more.
Ive tried r3charged,i had multiple sms errors,now im on stock rooted deodexed,i havent had any issues.by stable i mean a RC that has no bugs.i know that may be asking alot,but i cant afford to not have all my features intact.also,i had issuea with multiple different AOSP roms,poor signal and weaker wifi,even with the latest radio combo pack....so im gunna steer clear of CM7.

2.5 is smooth as butter, I highly recommend it. That plus ChopSuey make for great battery life. I underclock to around 758 MHz and no lag for me

Just got to experiment, man. Try different ROMs and kernels and such, that's the beauty of Android (and especially the Evo Development, we have great devs!)

I am going to be installing a new ROM on my girlfriend's INC2 today and just had a few questions. One, what is the best AOSP ROM out right now (my guess would be Liquid 3.2). Two, what is the best Sense ROM out? Most likely I will be installing a sense ROM as she has been running Liquid for a long time now and is running into some bugs. Also, at least for my Thunderbolt Sense ROMS are getting to be really nice and just as fast as AOSP IMHO. Anyways, my focus is on the Sense ROM, something that is new and updated. Any suggestions?
I would ditch sense and go with cyanogen or MIUI. My only issue with miui was battery life, but maybe you'll have better luck.
Sent from my Incredible 2 using XDA App
For a solid sense ROM, check out skyraider Zeus 1.3. It's based on the stock sense2.1 but has some 3.0 upgrades. It's a very stable, fast rom.
MikRunny is a good sense 3.5 ROM. There are some minor bugs, and it gets a lil laggy once in awhile. But overall its a solid performer.

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.
