At first it's a simple rule. What works for me, might not work for you You should try a kernel's and radio's combinations, remember about a RIL matching to radio You choose and give it some time to settle it On GB ROM version best for my battery life was Brick kernels
The best for me now is Virtuous Inquisition-v3.5.0
Quiet good in battery life... My phone on stanby(when im sleep) for 10hours++ and only drop for 1%
Really happy with Virtuous roms
Tried many many ROM's
HyperNonSense had the far best battery life time on my Sensation XE. It was superior to Virtuous. ;-)
Have you tried lowering the cpu and putting it on conservative, that helps me out regardless of rom usually. Using Darkforest now and it hasn't really affected the stock battery life, 6 hours of constant use, more than a full day if I stop fiddling

Heyy,,as the topic says which is the best custom ROM for Sensation and which ROM has good battery life?
You will get flamed for your post. Every rom its unique to its dev. Threads like this create a barrier for devs where one dev will get more quentin than another cuz of a thread like this. I suggest you try out the roms personally and stick to one you yourself prefer

my thoughts exactly, plus, have in mind that the very reason for an open source OS, a rooted device, and rom development, is that different people need and want different things out of their device.
cheers.
It differs even with exactly same install for two different answer. There is no combo that would work the same.

Would it be useful to have a thread that posts comparisons for each rom so users can compare key features side-by-side and objectively decide which might suit them best, without having to download and flash every single one?
Things compared could be key distinguishing features, kernels supported, average reported free ram, benchmark scores (controversial I know).
Just a thought
I tried 2-3 roms but atleast i think insertcoin is the best.Very very fast and smooth but best of all the battery life is amazing.

Agreed and I just flashed coredroid 2.3. So far only on complaint battery went down when first flashed.. expected.. but the problem was I plugged in my phone and turn it off then battery would not charge. Too dead to turn on. I got past that and now battery is a lot better have used non stop for about 12 hours and down to 30 percent
Would normally have to charge after about 6 on stock. So no complaints. Also I'm partial to the blue skin

+1 for Coredroid 2.3, although I need to calibrate my battery, I flashed at 60%, when it died, I swapped batteries. So far 41 % left, just over 12 hours with 2+ hours screen on. I get over a day on stock ROM with medium to heavy use on my Anker battery.

It's not just the rom you run its the custom kernal that helps out. I run Virtuous Inquisition 4.01 and I use the Socali 1.2ghz underclocked kernal for better battery life. Even though I do a lot on it I can manage to get about 20 hours on it, lots more if I don't play videos or music.
i just tried almost every rom and i made this result:
battery life:
1. opensensation (latest update)
2. android revolution hd 6.6.3
3. OrDroid 2.2.0
[..]
performance
1. android revolution hd 6.6.3
2. hyper slite insertcoin 5.3.0
3. virtous s4v alpha3
this result are totally objective.. it is just my opinion.. i didnt test elegancia rom out because its not my favor
when i flash in a ROM i will probably take Revoulution 6.6.3 .. seems really stable..
I use ViperS 1.6.3 and BrickedKernel 3.0.36 and the performance is GREAT!!
But it drains battery .... omfg, more than stock
But it's a nice rom and with heavy usage you can use your phone for quite a day... so the balance between battery drain and performance is quite okay, so it is like I think

First of all, Thanks to all HTC Sensation's Rom developers. We have quite a few. HTC Sensation is as of now one of the most supported devices…kudos to them...It is really appreciated.
I am just tester that switched from iphone(got sick of it) to Android about 1-1/2 to 2 years ago. I started with the amazing HTC HD2, then HTC Desire Z(t-mobile G2), T-Mobile LG-2X, and now the powerful HTC Sensation.
I have always looked for the best battery developed rom offered. For example on HTC HD2 , I could not find any better than Hyperdroid from pongster, or Virtuous on G2, Eagleblood on LG2X. These are just my modest opinion
I have tried about 10 different ROMs on my Sensation and so far the best I have found battery wise is Insertcoin….(as I said it is just my opinion). Insertcoin is fine and 40 to 50 % better compared to stock, but it does not compare to the battery life I was getting from Hyperdriodv11 from pongster (which with normal use lasted 1 1/2 to 2 days, on heavy use lasted the entire day). INSERTCOIN give a good 14 to 16 hours (normal use) which I cannot complaint about it, but o when I have heavy use I need to charge it at least once or twice a day.
I have only one Sensation and I have tested quite a few roms but no all. There are about 30 to 40 out there. I am posting 33, sorry if a miss others. I have tested quite a few so far would like to share my experiences, but I would also like other member opinions which may help me and others to make their best pick.
This a bashing or a pissing contest..it is just your opinion please be gently
I will appreciate your inputs.
Thanks

Too bad this poll hasn't gotten a larger voting result. I would love to see the poll with votes in the hundreds.
You forgot CM7 alpha 7.... ive tried a couple different roms and lees and mikes dont compare to CM7.
Not all SOCs are created equal
I have tried the following ROMs so far and have monitored battery usage on them with the Current Widget and logs.
1. ARHD 4.1.6
2. InsertCoin 3.4.4
3. Reverted AOSP
4. MIUI.us Latest
My best battery usage (lowest under 10Ma) is with InsertCoin's ROM. The other ROMs showed heavy battery drain(even without any other apps except stock), particularly with ARHD and Reverted AOSP. ARHD and AOSP use custom kernels unlike InsertCoin which uses stock by default. I don't however think the problem is with the ROM or Kernels. My phone SOC just cant seem to handle undervolting or any other kernel mods very well.
I love InsertCoin. VERY useful additions/changes from stock. I also love the speed on ARHD. Tough decision between the two but the battery life was the clincher so sticking with InsertCoin for now. I love the simplicity of MIUI but too many FCs at the moment. InsertCoin has been the most dependable ROM for my phone.
I am also going to try ARHD with some other kernels and see how that works.
Like I said, not all SOCs are created equal so mileage WILL vary. This poll is at best some kind of starting point for the battery conscious.
IMAO, CM7 is awesome, more than 1 day with medium use !

I've been using ARHD for about 2 weeks now and battery has been absolutely horrible. I cant seem to get more than 4 1/2 hours without getting to 25%. I'm going to try InsertCoin next. Can't wait for the ICS version on CM though!
Sense-O-Maniac Rom which is already debloated runs fast & batt life is awesome!
P3D is the best for me.

It is Sense-o-Maniac and I love it
can anybody recommend any roms or mods that will help my sensation gain excellent battery life? ive tried multiple roms on gb and ics and still have had no luck. more recently ive tried ordroid, android revolution, and aokp build 37. with multiple kernels and the xxxpachaxxx-take-batterylife mod and still no luck. i can average about 9-10 hours with moderate usage but i really am looking for about a full 24 hours. is this even possible? ive had multiple phones in the past and there were a few i was able to gain excellent battery life on. for example mytouch4g on a few miui and cm7 roms could get me almost 36 or more hours, now i did keep data off when i wasnt using it, but im doing the same for my sensation and still no luck. is there anyone out there who has any recommendations or answers for me. i realize that not every chip is created equal but this is my second sensation, did i just answer my own question??? thanks in advance
hi,
Did you try ORDroid rom? I think is the best rom in terms of battery life/performance.....
I'm sorry if this an offence to anybody but with my experience it is not. Try hypernonsense for battery.
Also I've seen a mod in the dev section somewhere which brings about good battery but a large sacrifice is required, if you chose the power saving option that is. It only ever has one core running I believe at 1.5ghz ( the processors' true power ).

Check out one of my last posts.there's a link to a very useful battery guide. It helped restore my battery "life".
Also, newer phones use more power. Extended batts. Help this but eventually it will take new tech.nuclear powered phones would last a while.
I'm using a 1900mAH anker battery combined with virtuous inquisition 4.02 gives 24 hours easily. In fact my record was still on 62% after 24 hours
No other ROM comes close. You have to upgrade the battery though as well, which is dirt cheap for the anker.
Definitely up grade your battery ! I use Anker. It's much better than stock! When you switch from rom to rom, go into recovery with 100% full battery and plugged into charger, wipe battery stats from recovery then unplug charger. This will help with the battery life. Hope this helps you. As for Roms I'm currently using ordroid but the best battery life I ever got was from virtuous inquisition, likely because its a SENCELESS rom, I missed sence so I changed over to Ordroid. I wanted to give sence 4 a try. It's a give and take depending on what you want. If you don't care for sence and only care for battery life V.I. is the way to go. Hope I helped you

I'm currently using android revolution hd 6.6.5 and for my needs the battery life is fine.
I have to agree that with OrDroid my battery got drained a lot faster so I switched back to arhd Rom.
I have been on VI as well and it looks slick, mega fast and the best battery life of them all only I found a few bugs and switched back to arhd.
Still I'm used to sense now and ARHD is just the nicest Rom out there for me atm but that's just my opinion

I am running Elegancia ICS Sense 3.6 TMOUS_Edition_3.0.0 (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1663665) using the Bricked v1.1 kernel and am getting about 26 hours with light use and 18 hours with moderate use. In this day and age of power-hungry smartphones, I find this to be quite good!
U may use Faux's kernel on IntelligentDemond gavenor, it has good performence and long battery life.
what is the best kernel for the sensation 4g for the best battery life? right now i only get about 6 hours of battery life with normal use; texting, browsing, and facebook. Which kernel can i use so i can get better battery life? or what settings can i use to improve it?
my rom is
ViperS 1.1.0
bricked kernel
stock battery

There is no "Best" - whats best for you might not be best for someone else, everyone uses their phone differently so my advice would be to try one for a few days or a week, if you like it, stick with it, if you dont switch until you find the best kernel for you
Hey people, what is the best ROM for battery saving on our device? Any version of android.

In my opinion, the best ones are MIUI ROMs. But I haven't tried many ROMs, so there could be something even better.
In my opinion this is the best rom of the moment: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2171105
if you want GB -> Endymion
if you want ICS -> Desire XS
Saga 3D
I have tested a lot of ROM's for Desire S and SAGA 3D ver 5.1 it's most stable and battery life. Also I appreciate Hyperion v2.3 and Sabsa Prime 15.
Im using Fallout v5 now - its pretty good
There is no Rom that has the best battery life etc, it depends on how you use it. Experiment worth different Roms and see what resulted you get.try an app like wakelock detector too
Sent from my HTC Desire S
I find that Sense roms offer a bit better battery life than CM based ones.
Try something like Fallout 5.
Note that some of the roms based on CM (like flinny's latest builds) offer the opportunity to not only fiddle with CPU settings but also change the levels of the screen's brightness. Tweaking those two setting to a low level and turning GPS, Mobile Data, WiFi and Bluetooth can yield very good battery life results (depending on your usage)
If u ask me i get best battery life on GB MIUI version 2.4.20 and i tested a lot of roms. I think its because auto brightnes work excelent on MIUI and display is biggest consumer of battery. Give it a shot and report your expirience.
