I have been on the cm7 RC for about a month now. However its really not running optimally. I getting tired of the naggs. So I nandroid restored to my backup to cm6. Man what a difference. It's so much smoother. I know cm7 is not complete yet but froyo is still runs very well. Any of you guys feel the samek? Who is still rocking froyo?

Nope. Not here. Still on rc2 and I'd say its stable enough. I didn't think cyanogen would even go this far on rc.
Edit: I've found one unstable thing on my n1. The sense preview lags and choppy.

Yes froyo is miles smoother than cm7 and ginger bread stock. Scrolling apps, lists, webpages, everything is by far smoother on froyo. Makes a tough decision which ROM I want to run:-(
Cm7 rc4 has been as smooth as any 2.2 rom I've tried...now only if battery life was better than 10 hours I'd say it was perfect.

whorelando florida hahahaha! sorry but i just had to laugh at this because it is so true...
I'm going to Disneyworld!
Seriously, I have stayed of CM7 for now, since they haven't resolved the call wonkiness issue. I'll wait for CM7 final, or even 7.1. 6.1 is rock solid and by far the best ROM I have used in a loooong time. NO gingerbread for me yet. Stability first.

RC4 fixed my wonk issue but even on RC2, Dewonkificator solved the issue anyways.

i find cm7 RC4 to be extremely good on battery. i can go 12 hours and still be at 60% rather easily. but i just find RC4 laggy and choppy. try loading a tapatalk thread with 30 posts, and scroll that sucker. now try it on froyo, its like a totally different phone, one's smooth, one's chunky as hell.
Battery life sux. But loading huge threads and fora is not a problem at all for me. Everything is snappy and awesome.

People face choppy scrolling because they don't wipe properly when coming to a new rom. Its a know fact that when you switch a rom, you've to wipe atleast 3 times before flashing the new .zip.
This is simply because, 80% of the first wipe doesn't wipe at all. ( both Amon_RA and CWR)
Always wipe 3-4 times and you'll never face the choppiness issue on any CM Roms.

Got tired of plain Android and CM7 wonks and other CM7/GB bugs, and tried Sense-based Froyo. What a difference. Going to stay there until (hopefully) a fully functional Sense GB port will be out.
What's the most stable Sense UI ROM?
eViL's NXSense 1.26. It's the only fully functional Sense ROM, unfortunately.
If you don't mind not having native hotspot capabilities - you can also install Desire HD ports (MM SuperHybrid 1.7 and eViL's 1.1beta).

I've always experienced lag when using adw launcher that comes with CM. Try giving launcher pro a go if you haven't. It made a difference for me.

i use launcher pro exclusively for the last 10 months or so...paid version. it is smoother for sure. but my scroll issues are ont necessarily home screen related. load any tapatalk thread, and it scrolls in chunks. handcent text items in a long list scrolls in chunks.
another bug in cm7, if you have battery text shown in the status bar, once you plug in to charge, after 20 minutes the homescreens become super laggy and skip. this continues until charge is complete, or you unplug. or if you turn off the percent text, scroll returns to normal smooth. i looked at the source code, and this new implementation is different than cm6 battery percent text version. seems using broadcast receivers, etc, or possibly the animation speed, is causing this issue.
i may edit the source to turn off batt percent when plugged in, since that's how cm6 functioned, and see if that fixes it. but i've been lazy pulling down the source.

interesting - what was it?, is there a thread that discusses the fixed issue? would be worth rooting for, i'm on stock gb and was thinking of going back to froyo cuz of battery issues.
What's everyones default rom?
Best batteryy life?
Mine is mikshift and cm7
best ROM i've had is gingerbread shift deck (which i've been using for the past couple weeks), best battery life i've had was on AwesomeROM or MikShift
I'm really liking Mikshift OC'd to 1.5GHz. MikBrando GSense has an awesome look and feel (guess I'm partial to the Sense eye candy and 2.0 is slick) and it will probably be my daily driver once the kernel source is released and it can be OC'd. BrandoKC's green theme really gives it an "executive" look. On the other hand, Sense ROMs can't touch the performance of AOSP ROMs such as cm7 at equivalent clock speeds, but you pay for it with battery life. That's my two cents.
Sent from my MikShifted Speedy using XDA Premium App
ive been getting the best battery life on cm7. im on nightly 91 and using the stock kernel clocked to 1 ghz and i can easily go a full 2 days with atleast 15 percent left
default is cm7 stable 7.0.3.1 but lately i've been using shift deck and it's cool.
Shift deck is the very best rom imo. I love it and its better than CM7 to me.

I wish my GPS worked and I also wished my signal was better so that I could fully enjoy CM7. I keep having to go back to a sense rom to "fix" the GPS issue. I'm on Mikshift at the moment and it's sluggish compared to aosp, but at least it's fully functional for me.
I haven't tried alot of them, but I went with evervolv, I couldn't go back. Even trying cm7 after.

Shiftdeck!!! Nuff said
I like shiftdeck, though I still don't understand what's with the bootlooping on the last couple of releases.
CM7 is the fastest, smoothest for me and I love the nightlies.

I'm on the stock rooted rom. I loaded the speedy kingdom rom, but was too laggy and too many FCs for me, so I switched back. I'm running the X99 kernel, running at the defaults (1.2 gHz max), and it's running like a champ. I could run it at 1.5, but it runs so good at 1.2, that I didn't feel the need to go higher. Battery life is good too.
cm7 and x99 is working like a champ for me. so far nothing seems out of place, and all my aftermarket applications works fine such as youmail, gvoice, and gmail pushes as well. 2032 on quadrant :O !!!

Have you tried Shift Deck with x99. It runs awesome, even better than the nightlies. My Quadrant went from 3380 to 3900 switching to Shift Deck. All my other benchmarks went up aswell.
I love deck's ROM also, SO fast. The bootloops are because of a new kernel he is trying. Don't worry he'll have it figured out soon enough. Anyways my favorite of all favorites has to be MIUI 1.4.29. I love the UI, it's fast, and by far the best battery life of any ROM I've tried.

Before the release of a stable AOSP ROM, the best battery life for me was AwesomeRom using a 1.8g bfq test kernel. I can't remember who the dev was since its been a while, but I believe it was Bcnice20. The ROM & kernel combo made my phone pretty snappy while also giving me like 14-16 hrs of battery life through heavy use.
On AOSP, my favorite ROM has to be Kush-Deck 1.2t so far. I just flashed Scary's Stable Kernel v2 last night. I have min at 245MHz, max at 1209MHz, and the governor set to "Smartass". I'm hoping those settings will give me the best experience in terms of performance, stability, & battery life.
I had been rawkin' an older version of Deck's ROM with the stock Kernel for a bit but after a while my battery life started going down hill. Before that i had been on different versions of CM7 for a while since RC 1 but battery life was even worse on those.
I've been pretty stoked on Deck so far and think I'll prolly keep rawkin this for a while. Especially since everything seems to be working well for me including GPS, Wi-Fi, 4G, etc.

I also use deck's rom with the newest x99 kernel. Miui is also nice, but I always find myself flashing back to an aosp rom after a day or so.
I was just curious as to what everyone else thinks about the sense 3.0 and 2.1+3.0 roms. Which do you think are the best? I'm currently using kinged kingdom 2.1 odexed and it has been the smoothest running so far. All the other roms have felt laggy or sluggish at times. I'd like to find one to use as a daily. Any recommendations?

Mikg is my favourite, and ive tried just about all of em. Super stable and very fast.
I was using synergy for a little bit but I can't remember why I switched. I think it had something to do with the camera wouldn't work if you used a different kernel. I might have to give it another shot since I've heard a lot of good about it.
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App
I've used Synergy and MikG a lot. They are pretty much the same except Synergy has the updater, and an effin ton of themes + mods, but I feel like it's a little bit slower than Mik. Also Mik sees more updates.
Synergy is great so far! Love the stock gb with the settings shortcut in the notification menu. Custom synergy update is great too. Although I haven't seen any updates yet. Everything else seems fine. Used Sinister for a while. I Sinister is fast and while the 3d home screen integration is nice, I think it used a little too much memory. I got the white htc screen too much. I get it almost after every game I play
Sent from my Evo running Synergy Rom!
I started with Synergy RLS1 and then decided to try MikG. I think MikG is better but that is a personal choice. I just feels faster to me... that might be due to the fact that it is odexed and Synergy is deodexed. Since I am not into themes, etc I do not need a deodex ROM.
r3chargeD final from EVOlvedROM. Needs some easy tweaks based on build # (still consider myself is a newbie) but plenty of support.

Using [R2R]_[Rom][Sence 3.0 GB 2.3.5]Going_Green_Lightning_Fast-R.3.Zip and so far it has been great. Very fast. Only issues is that HD recording on my EVO has caused FC. Others have had this happen on this ROM as well. The dev is very responsive, so I assume a fix will come soon.
I have been on mik g for a while and never had a problem, I may go with synergy just because id like to update without doing a full wipe every couple of weeks

How is Shuji 2.5? What type of customization's and battery life??
Battery life was extremely great! Seemed to have the best battery of any ROM I've tried yet. There wasn't much to customize really, which is a disappointment. Kinda boring. I ended up just flashing the newest Liberty X3 and I love it. It has an ICS feel to it. Very smooth and framework is very similar to ICS. Hoping they come out with some new themes for Liberty soon.
I've flashed Shuji, but I would suggest Vortex if speed, stability, and battery life are what you're looking for. I have flashed many other roms, and so far Vortex eclipses them all. just my 2 cents

Ok cool thanks for the info. Thats what I was wondering. The developer just released Vortex 2.9 so I'll definitely be flashing this one.
Currently running LibertyX 3 coming from CM7.1 and I must say that this rom has the best battery life I have ever gotten coming from older versions of liberty, cm7, and so on. It is also pretty fast when navigation home screens and apps. I have not tried Shuji yet but what would that rom offer that I don't already get from LX3?
Huge fan of Liberty, ran 0.9 until CM7 became a bit more stable. Unfortunately, CM7's battery life is just too much of a hit to keep running it. Just flashed LibertyX3, and it's great! Seems much smoother than 0.9 and battery life so far is great. Heavy usage for 3 hours (restoring everything from backups) and still had 75% battery left.
Anybody flash shuiji or VorteX? I plan on flashing those in boot manager just to mess around.
I'll chime in with Liberty as well - been running it for about a week now. Best battery life I've had on any ROM so far. I know it's just a RC and some people are having issues, but I have not had any problems at all. Works great flashed over to Cricket as well, no issues with MMS or anything.
I have had liberty.9 gb and the sugui gb Im running cm7 nightlys for gb I prefer this the most 100s of themes,fonts,and all round good,I would also buy tomorrow tools great to have I bought it

If your looking for speed go with Neutrino. Honestly its by far the fastest rom I have ever used. Battery is great, and the creator is very helpful with any problems you have.
Highly recommended!!

right now on 4.4 lite version.
Although with all the cool stuff added on to the newer version it seems just a bit slower to me then back when i was on 2.xxx versions, but they are worth it.
still much better then anything stock though. (maybe it's just me, maybe it's not slower, or maybe it's just my phone, I don't know...)

Hi all,
i use both, jumping from Neutrino to DarkSide & vice-versa via Nand-BackUp (and trying also others).
Neutrino is so smooth, fast and battery +/- the same as DarkSide.
Anyway i've found the DarkSide surprisingly similar about performance. Then mind that if you like to use WebTop or LapDock ROMs based on CM7 as Neutrino haven't these features.
I like Neutrino but it is more like pre-beta stage to me. It takes too much tweaking to get it to act normal. Currently on darkside 2.8 using landscape hdmi support
Sent from my MB860 using XDA App
I always keep coming back to DarkSide 4.2 Lite
It's been pretty stable, fast and has all the bells and whistles I need (specially Webtop and Fingerprint Scanner).
I'm hoping that some day I could stick with MIUI once it matures enough, I'm willing to let go my Webtop as long as I can use HDMI Landscape Mirror with my Lapdock.
Miui alpha 3. Best battery life on my atrix out of any custom rom. Only thing is, porn doesn't load from the browser, and games have to be played on silent.

The Darkside, the best based motoblur. Neutrino, the best ROM. Neutrino is smooth, CM7 based with MIUI camera.
Just flashed neutrino 1.4 some time back. I think the battery is draining rather fast. But i'll let it stick for another week before I go back to Darkside. Motoblur still has a lot of my contacts which won't show up when I install any of the cm7 based roms .
Between Darkside and cm7 I feel Darkside had rather significantly battery life. However, the customizability of cm7 may be worth the sacrifice. To each his own, pick your favorite.

Hi I have been running neutrino 1.4s ee for week prior to that cm 7.1. I think neutrino has been quicker generally but it is very stripped down so by the time you have added things back to it think it then seems to have slowed up a bit. Boot is very quick, but my GPS doesn't work. I think they're trying to fix in next update. Quite a few fc's too. Tempted to try darkside soon though.
Edit. And I just had my first random reboot! But for some reason I prefer it to cm...
