I use Leedroid with its own kernel will run nice and very very easy on battery

I second leedroid. I've literally tried Android revolution hd, coredroid, and leedroid, and leedroid seems to be the fastest, smoothest, and stable as far as I'm concerned with the ability to o/c up to 1.8ghz if you're into that sort of thing. Thanks developers!

Every rom will work differently for everyone, best is to try which works best for you. I am using TB Fusion 1.1.2

i find Gingerbeast to be best on battery, as well as really stable. If you don't want sense and want Gingerbread 2.3.4 the way Google meant it, this is your Rom. Quick, smooth, and reliable.

How is cm7 on the inspire?

Cm7 is marvelous
Sent from my Desire HD using XDA Premium App

i have leedroid...first rom i have tried and it seems very stable and quick, im also using leedroid's kernel
cant say too much about battery life yet, but it seems pretty good
8 hours 48 mins.... from 98 to 67% with light usage...

I'm using CM7, and my battery lasts almost twice as long, with just a few apps running. IMO, HTC Sense is the problem causing massive battery drain. But I tend to like Android as it was intended to be.

CM7 or anything based on it is great. It's ran the smoothest for me.

are you guys using cm7 or cm7 nightly?
whats the difference anyways?
yea ill admit im trying to get my post count up, i could search....but i want to leave feedback in the dev section sooo....

I have found these 2 Roms the best for battery life.
Cleardroid and CM7 (not nightly)

Nightlies are updated pretty much every day. Not "stable" and experimental. I'm currently running CM7 Nightly 84 (downloading 85 right now) and i have pretty good battery life using LordMod's UEv2.0 VIO kernel with -25 script. I jumped on board the CM7 Nightly train from Android Revolution 5.1.5 (now 5.1.7) to try out Netflix, which works great. Though my battery life with ARHD 5.1.5 and I think it was Apache's kernel was fricking amazing. I could go two days between charges with normal/light usage.

Men there are many roms, i thing the Best is CoreDroid v6.6 Even leeDroid (Reboot issue)

Inspired ACE 1.0.1 + MDJ's Kernel V19
This is my Inspire after moderate use, always WIFI ON.
FaceBook+Twitter+Weather // Updating Data every Hour.
I tested every single Rom (I have 3 Inspires) this is THE BEST combination I found for battery life.

I have tried so many different ROMS and have always come back to Inspired Ace 1.0.1 I have it heavily modded with lots of Sense 3.0 components and still the battery life is more than exceptable for me and the performance (even moderatly overclocked to 1.21) is clean and smooth.
i do have to say though that if you dont want the Sense experience then CM7 has to be the best out there. but for my taste i like the frills and bling theat Sense provide.
P.S. keep in mind that overclocking, even moderately is not recomended. And since all hardware reacts differently your inspire may not tolerate being overclocked or it may tolerate it even better than mine. Battery life as always is not an objective reference but subjective my use may be far less than yours and it all depends on what you are using it for.

so many to choose from, i keep going back to cm7 based personally. Recently been using mdj cm7.1.0 v1.4 with the latest lordmod kernal PUV. The rom can be found in the Desire HD section. Just flash the audio fix after flashing the rom. So fast yet has the least battery drain. On standby, I hardly draw any juice at all! TPGB is a great choice as well!

I have my wife's inspire running Inspired Saga (100% stable) using the 12.35..... radio and juice defender app. She avgs 1d 4hrs on a single charge. And yes that includes a few hours of angry birds. She has been running it for the last month. And i have yet to do anything to it since flashing the rom. No fc's no reboots etc. It runs flawlessly.

Best Rom for the charge?

Hello, I am coming from a fascinate to the droid charge. I have a few themes I will be porting and was wondering what the best rom for me to port to is. Been awhile since I wasnt sure which rom to use. Thanks in advance. GoS

Personal opinion, humble 2.1 (ep1f) and really happy with battery life! Netflix, skype, etc...
Sent from my SCH-I510 using XDA Premium App

I previously used Gummycharged 1.8.5(used it from June 28-July 15) and just recently switched to Humble 1.35 and believe me when I say it's a HUGE difference! Humble is absolutely incredible, the battery life is phenomenal and the transitions are much better then the non apparent ones on GC. Another plus for Humble is it receives updates almost daily and updating is very simple if you are already on a previous version of Humble(just install .zip from SD card in CWM).
So, best ROM? Well, I've only tried GC and Humble but seriously, Humble is probably the best lol.

give altered beast a try. i know it isn't really being updated anymore but its incredibly stable so updating isn't really an issue. i used gummy for a few days and it would randomly reboot at least once a day so i dropped it for stock debloated EP1F which is what i am currently on and i LOVE IT.

I've tried every ROM and build of Froyo and GB to date. At the end of the day I keep going back to Eclipse. Has better signal strength, no reboot issues the theme/look is done fully threwout the ROM, and battery life is awesome on it.

Yeah Nitro's EF roms were pretty stable. As far as signal goes, im not sure why you would get different signal strengths. You Radio shouldnt be changing from one rom to another, unless these are odin pkgd roms that include different radios. I can see im gonna have to do alot more research on this device. Oh well, how do you like thr droid Charge in general?

You never told us what you have tried, or what kinda battery life you are getting. Also did you put the phone in airplane mode so it isn't looking for service?

For example I just turned the phone on from after being in the charge for 7 hours, i then immediately went to xda app and then checked the battery and found it at 96%.

I've found that ICS roms are horrible on battery life. Also, like mt3g said, put it in airplane mode since you aren't on a mobile network. Take a look at this thread too http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1054420

Should I use Hellfire or eb gb, I've heard that eb is better but hellfire's gb was updated more recently, and which suggested kernal to go with it. I understand that it all depends in your phone but what in.your experience / opinion is the best combo.

The rom I'm using right now is Eaglesblood build 2.8 which is GB 2.3.7. I get pretty decent battery life just using the kernal that is built into it normally. I was having a few problems with HFP 2.1 so I switched to this and haven't looked back. Even though it isn't the most recent I still feel like its the best, just my opinion though.

I have got the best battery life so far with Eagles blood GB as well. HFS v1.5 is giving me ok battery life but EGB gave me double time as this ROM

Try them out, read the threads to see common issues and things that work well. Stop asking everyone here to do that little bit of work for you.
XDA is not your personal slave, we should not, and will not spoon feed you. Look around, spend more then 2 minutes looking at the first post. If you put in a good effort, people will be willing to help you, but just constantly asking for which ROM is just lazy.
You did not answer the question of whether you put the phone in airplane mode, you have not said any of the ROMs you've tried (other than all of them, which I doubt). At least pretend to give a ****...
Search!!!! there are tons of threads on how to increase battery life
Sent from my LG-P999 using Tapatalk

? I don't think you give a **** because if you read my post you would of known that I'd have tried eb ics and gb, and hellfire ics and gb rom, and i've actually spent hours reading pages in the roms topic and other places, and I forgot to answer that question, my answer is no I don't even have a simcard in the phone for it to be searching for service and enabling it would stop wifi which is what I do use.

You can put the phone into Airplane mode and then enable WiFi. Even though you don't have a Sim install it can still try to search for a network and drain the battery. It will need a network without a Sim to be able to call 911 if needed.

Just go back to the kernal you had before and it should be fine

@ctowne... I would love to know what you are doing that makes your battery life that good with a stock kernel. I'm running cm 7.0.2 and I've charged my phone a couple times through heavy use. I have cut a lot of the processes down and did all the troubleshooting to get better battery life and its still draining like **** during heavy ( or what I would call heavy) use

I don't think its necessarily the stock kernal. It's the one that is built in to Eaglesblood GB. Also try to follow this guide, it seemed to help my battery life. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1054420 I did get around 30 hours on that charge but it varies quite a bit depending on usage. I always get a full day of moderate use though. Try switching to Eaglesblood GB and follow that guide to 20 hour battery life and see if it helps. If not, your battery could just be old/bad. Hope this helps!

Yeah i tried the eaglesblood rom and wasn't too impressed. Im sure that it was good for performance, however i immediately missed the customization with cm7 (adw launcher) and the themes that came with it. after i have flashed the faux123 kernel on here with cm7, im happy to say my battery life is incredible. i fished all day yesterday and listened to music while texting a bit and making a few phone calls. was out for about 10 hours and had only used 40% of my battery. so for anyone looking for a good cm7 kernel, the faux has been the best i have found yet

Favorite ROM for Stability and Battery Life

I realized there hasn't been a topic on this for the Skyrocket. After experiencing the bugs on ICS roms I needed to find a rom that will get be as stable as a rock. I am currently using NexusMoD GB 4.3 and I find it to be very good. My battery life on it has been OK not that great. It seems to me that the ICS roms where running just fine for the most part for me, even battery life was decent, but I had weird bugs where I wouldn't receive SMS or Calls, and my texts would say they sent but they wouldn't even actually send. This would happen at random times even though it worked most of the time. Any favorite stable roms guys?

I found the mhx superlight GB release works great and has good battery life.
for me stability and battery mod on status bar were my requirements and mhx achieves both.

SKY ICS
For me it is the most stable. Great Battery. GPS works great. Camera is fantastic.

Sky ice works really well, the battery life for me was 60% better than stock. Running latest ics leak now, more stable but battery life is down (compared to sky ics).

+1 on MHX-SUPERLITE 3.1 GB rom.... best battery life on any GB rom I've run... never had a S.O.D.... no FCs... very stable and fast. Average 6hr "screen on" time with 18-20hrs on battery time. This is with JD disabled.

Stock.

For my money, Sky ICS has been extremely good.

I've been using the same ROM you are using. I've found that battery life has been pretty consistent among all the ROMs, which is to say sadly, not very good. It works pretty well overall with just a few hiccups here and there. I have had numerous issues with various ICS ROMs. I tried 3 of them (including SkyICS) and they either didn't run well, or in one case it just plain didn't work at all. That's why I went back to a GB Rom. YMMV but if I were you I'd stick with your ROM until ICS gets a formal release and see what the community does with that.

I love me some Nexus mod gingerbread. I will probably go to ICS when the official kernel gets released.

Great question to be asked again even if for the 5,000,000th time. I am DJ ICS fan, hands down most "stable" and it is very fast with great battery for a 1.7ghz rom.

I've had my beloved skyrocket for about 5 months now and have flashed/used about 12 ROMs. Pretty much across the board, battery is god awful. The latest Sky ICS by SeanZ seems to improve battery by roughly 20% on my specific handset. Overall battery is pretty shabby.

Which from do you get the best battery life??

I'm trying to hunt around for the best battery life so let me know your opinions. Thanks

Best battery life would come from one of the debloated stock roms most likely...but it also keep in mind not every phone reacts the same way as others do to a Rom...one person may get amazing life on one...while another gets terrible life on that same exact one...

I've been running legend rom for the past 2 weeks, been great.

that's what I was on before this. I am actually thinking of switching to something that has Bluetooth for the time being until they get a patch on RemICS. Its the only downfall!

Although development had stopped, Zeus had the best battery life for me.

erytherm cisa).
Zues was pretty good,except I had SOD issues several times a day, wiped, reinstalled, re-downloaded, went back to stock, rooted again, reinstalled, nothing seemed to fix the issue

For me most of the bigger gb roms all had good battery life. (legend, aeon, zues, emacipation).
One of the best roms ive used as far as battery was actually dman's catyrom. With pretty heavy usage.
But ive found out that using better battery stats to track down battery hogs is a must for any rom.
