Idc for performance, Battery life is what i want.
I herd about overclock and undervolt but i want best battery saving one.
Can someone link me to a rom / mod for this?
And i want to know
Whats difference between gingerbread and froyo.
And whats latest android version / updates for htc desire cmda Us cellular model.
Please link me to a good rom for my needs.
Ive been looking around on this forum, and theres like a million roms, I need the best one but that has good battery life or if i can get a link to a mod for that.
Thanks for any help / links.
OS Gingerbread 2.3.4 has the best battery saving.
I have used InsertCoin which has some other nice features like porting for Sensations swype keyboard and sense 3.0.
But if you want high battery life a very basic ROM with almost no bells and whistles will give you the most battery, best to chose a ROM with no HTC sense (also known as rosie) Don't use live wall papers, limit the refresh rates of your accounts and sync, reduce the screen brightness, don't have WIFI or GPS selected only active when you need.
I purchased a 3000Mah battery which doubled my battery life, ugly because it is large and a new back cover was required.
Undervolting will only help when the phone is not in use, eg Locked
Hope this helps
Running BAMF 1.0.7 and was wondering if anyone has tried this? Also noticed it's a much smaller file than most roms
Its as fast and basic as you want it to be with a lot of customization options. Just upgraded from 2.6 and I'm loving it. For battery life I don't think there's a better choice.
Edit: I should note that coming from my other android phones the htc sense interface pretty much makes my skin crawl, so those have never been options for me.

Just loaded it today and it is very nice. Very fast, smooth and lots of features.
AOSP ROMs are going to be much smaller in size than Sense ROMs, averaging 100 MB or so.
This ROM is excellent. Very fast!

Been running it since prerelease betas. It was good enough for a daily back then. Now its just stunning. Arguably the best aosp rom available...
My name is Revos I'm a recovering flashaholic running Liquid Gingerbread 3.0
What's the best ROM for the Sensation in regards with battery life? And performance too (2nd priority)?
Or what do you use and why?
I know asking this question is against the law on XDA, but my girlfriend gave me her phone and asked me make it better. I have a Droid Razr and have it rooted and such. And have rooted/flashed HD2s, HD7s, G2X, and Droid Bionics, so I am not a complete noob.
LeeDroid has been the most stable ROM Iv;e used with the best battery life and performance.
What specifically doesn't she like about the stock rom? It might be easier to make a suggestion, for example, if she hates sense.
Well she's not tech-savy. All she complains about is battery life. And something with better performance will be a nice surprise.
I just came from a few different sense 3.5 roms to an Optimized Stock rom by maff1989. I was tired of random reboots on the sense 3.5 roms plus my battery life sucked so yesterday I switched. My brother has a completely stock sensation and his battery often outlasted mine so you could probably cross those out. Just my experience.
Have you checked her battery log to see what's draining it the most?
I actually gave my girlfriend my Nexus One, which I flashed Cyan on and installed a purple theme(her favorite color) from the market, showed her how to use the photo album widgets, and such. She's become pretty savy with it now, and she loved it when I gave it to her.
Well you're never going to get "good" battery life on a Sensation, but you can improve it. My wife runs InsertCoin 2.5.5 with Bricked kernel 1.5 r1 beta 1, undervolted by 25k and she doesn't complain.
Right now I'm running Pyramid3D 8.2.1 with Bricked 1.6 beta 2 kernel, undervolted by 50k, stripped sense. This is a fresh flash, but so far, so good.
But like I said, neither of our phones have "good" battery life. If I had to rate, I'd just say "ok" but better than stock.
In my experience, they love MIUI w/ Go Launcher EX.
With the MIUI default launcher I remember she hated it. It was a "too boring" iPhone look. Go Launcher EX fixed that problem, just hook her up with the widgets in these 3 apps and she will love it

My vote goes for MIUI ROM.
Great battery life, bling, simple, looks different then other ROMs , if your gf is not concerned with sense and wants a custom Rom that does what HTC's android don't then it's the best option.
The reason that I wrote this is because in my circle people give me their androids to root them, but they have no idea what rooting is , I have tried several roms on Samsung Galaxy 3,galaxy s, galaxy s2,LG optimus one, hd2, HTC incredible, HTC EVO 3d, and more but generally people have a better opinion about MIUI, than others, and its because of different themes and outlook of MIUI, while other roms are not so different compared to MIUI (SKIN DEEP IS WAT I MEAN).I personally use ARHD 4.1.X. (Sense 3.5) on my sensation.
Well you can get her on a CM7 based rom and she already knows how to use it so that part is easy... Then secondly I would get one of the Anker extended batteries and make sure you go through a few battery cycles and on top of that try undervolting it to like a 1ghz i mean the iphone 4 is only 800mhz lol

I got 48 hours on stock. I get 24 hours on ARHD. Going back to stock then probably selling it.
Check out the ROM in my sig. I think she'll like it.
Very stable, very fast, and great battery life (1.5 - 2 days moderate use, 4+ days standby)
Pyramid 3D or LeeDROiD Sensational. My two favorite hands down, and I've tried them all.

Hello everybody. I am interested in flashing a custom ICS rom and I was interested to know something people have really liked in ICS as compared to Gingerbread or other OSes, such as general performance or battery life or whatever.
Battery life seems a lot better to me than GB ROMs. My personal favorite has to be the updated keyboard. Auto correct and suggestions are much better now. The overall look and feel is a big step up from Gingerbread (AOSP at least, anyway).
There are many Roms out there and I am unsure which are the best. Could you guys recommend me two, one based off of features and the other based solely on battery life and performance? Also, do we get more battery life with a custom ROM or stock?
Well, in my opinion, after having flashed roms since owning an S2+, I can safely say that the battery life on a good custom rom can be better than the stock one (the "can" depends on how the user tweaks it"). The best available roms for the S8+ available now are, in my (repeat "my") honest opinion, Renovate Ice 9.1 and Alexis S9 port. For the last 2-3 weeks I had been using it, ans now I've switched to Alexis.
