Im wondering which gingerbread rom gets you the best battery life? Also what cpu settings and kernel are you guys running?
oh for the love of god not another one of these threads please reed around before posting something like this do you realize how many threads are floating around asking the same thing.
This debate will never be resolved. There are many ROMs to choose from and too many variables that factor into battery life. It's best to try then all and see which one suits your needs. For starters, I'm using Kushdeck's AOSP ROM and it's great, in terms of speed and battery life.

You do realize that the OP posted the question in a CDMA Hero forums, right?

So i just found out how easy it is to change the custom rom. right now im on some 2.2 rom.
what is the big difference in 2.2.
also i heard the 2.1 roms have better batterylife and overclocking.
the 2.2 cant and there still buggy right?
so what is your guys opinions?
Everyone is going to have a different opinion. I have tried three of them and I like baked snacks with ultimate kernel. The only thing bad about that one is you will get no support here.
The other popular ones are Syndicate and Epic Experience.

Agree. It stinks and not sure about how many future updates it will have, but baked snack by far has the best battery life for me too. Unfortunately, my CPU doesnt like the ultimate kernel, but it runs fantastic with step2.
The best rom is easily which ever one is the most customizable. If you are going to use something like LauncherPro then it's all about which notification bar you prefer.

I started off with Epic Experience, then moved onto Baked Snack (gasp! #noban)..loved the speed of Baked Snack, but hated the theme and didn't want to investigate another.. (I just really love the stock look) and then switched to Syndicate (IMHO the best).
YMMV with Roms, just try a few and see which one is best for you with trial and error.
best combo I've ever used is backed snack 1.6 w/ ultimate. unfortunantely, there isn't much support. I've had to create my own post in the general section to ask a few questions concerning some of the things I've been experiencing.
also, syndicate and xtreme are great but I hvent gotten the best battery life with them.
as for 2.2 froyo, I'm just going to wait until I recieve the ota and then test out the custom builds.

I use Syndicate/Extreme. I've improved my battery life to something similar to baked snack by using a combination of setcpu (conservative scaling) and advanced task killer (auto kill on screen off). I unplug around 7 in the morning, and after a day of moderate usage I'm still at around 30-40% by the time I plug it in at ~10 pm. Good enough for me!
Oh, and I've tried the Froyo leaks, not stable enough for me...
I am currently on BOCA MSI (v9) which is giving me the best battery life I have ever had on GB (Better than Stock or Overcome and a few others I tried). Even verclocked at 1.4 Ghz
Now I am dreaming to switch to ICS... Obviously the first ROMs out were not really optimized for battery life, and battery life seemed terrible. But I wonder where the present ROMs stand and how hey compare to each other
I don't mind too much having a bit less performance than with BOCA (which is amazing), however I would just hate having a shorter battery life
Anybody can share their experience with AOKP and CM9? With which kernel ?
(Just anticipating some flames: obviously I could try them but I'd love to leverage on the forum and people's experience before making the jump to MTD partitions and wipe my whole install)
Thanks in advance
Not very popular question i seems
Every phone is used differently so its hard to compare ROMs. Try it yourself. Make a backup and flash some ROMs and see which one suits you best.

I'm using CyanogenMod 9 band the battery duration, even with RC1, is still very low.

1. This is not very useful... As I said I don't really have the time and I was trying to leverage on people's experience (After all this forum is meant for that
2. Even if every phone is used differently you still get valuable information from people trying 2 ROMs and coming with their own feeling about which one gives them better battery life

No it isnt and if you had bothered to search you would know tha these type of "best rom" thread are frowned upon for many reasons, The most obvious being that "best" is subjective and also depends on your specific hardware as power consumption is different from device to device. It also depends on software and configuration you use.
If you want the answer to this question then dont ask here, instead try some roms and find what is "best" for you not us.

Hi people. May I know what do you think is the best rom /kernel that gives you the strongest battery life? Best rom/kernel that makes your phone very fast?
Best SGS ROM/kernel?

I personally use RemICS-UX v.1.3beta, and find this very satisfactory.
The question is not an easy one to answer, since many factors come into play. What services do you have running? What apps are you using? What do you use your SGS for? And so on...
And at the end of the day, does the ROM you are using give you what you need on a day to day basis? Do you want TouchWiz? Or do you want a minimalist approach? Does it matter to you if certain functions aren't yet implemented on a particular ROM? You have to be happy and comfortable with what you are using! RemICS-UX has given my old SGS - and me - a new lease of life!
I find the battery life very good for what I want. Nevertheless, I always carry a charged Dexim power pack with me!
The speed of my SGS is good. There is an option to set the governor: I keep mine at 'on-demand', which seems to be a good compromise. But if you want 1.4 quad-core speed, then you are going to have to shell out for a new phone!
In ROMs/kernels - as in life - a balance has to be struck. So see what others have to say; look at the current popular ROMs; see what difficulties people are experiencing on a particular ROM forum. And don't be afraid to try out different ROMs and see what suits you.
EDIT: go to the Android Development section and see what is available: http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=665. The journey is as enjoyable as the arrival!!
ICS roms are really enjoyable but I have found them more battery greedy for a daily use than Gingerbread (3g and GPS especially consume more battery on Ics)
I have come back to Gingerbread recently (JW6), good old Samsung firmwares will always be more responsive and energy-efficient than custom ICS roms to me (if well used of course)

Hi there,
As I found out a few minutes ago, it seems that I can move Blinkfeed to another home screen.
In that case I'm considering returning to a custom Sense Rom. But as there is a lot of good choice, I'd really like to know which ROM has best battery life...
At this moment I'm using ARHD and this rom has tremendous battery life... So I hope there is a Sense rom that can compare to that... And also to that speed...
I know it's a kind of personal choice, but I assume there will be a bunch of people that have tested more custom roms before staying to use the one they use now...
Thanks...
Please just read the battery threads. "Best" rom threads are not allowed

The past few weeks I've been using CM12.1 as my daily driver but I started to miss the speed and functionality of Sense 7. Not to mention the look. I'mhere to gather opinions on which rom you personally think has the best battery life. Sense 7 Roms only, please.

"Best" is very subjective. You can compromise many things for battery life like functionality and speed. Keep in mind that users have totally different battery lives while even on the same ROM.
This is something only you can judge based on your usage.

Please don't post irrelevant information. I realize that. However, I'd like to see a rom that many people view as having good battery life. I'll pick that one to try first. I'm asking for everyone's personal experience and opinion, not factual information.

IMO
S.ROM has really great battery life. It's stock ported from m9. SkyDragon is also pretty good as well and has more features built in.
I think that it's less of the rom, and more how you use it, and what apps you use. I.E. using greenify, powernap and amplify, you can get decent battery life from anything.
You talk about irrelevant information, actually this whole thread is irrelevant because there is an existing battery thread already and the rules on this forum suggest you to use existing ones over new created ones.
