I'm thinking of going back to sense after an extended period on miui as I'm bored and until the kernal is released ics is not fully functional. Now my question is what from do I choose. There are so many now there's 2.1, 3 or 3.5. Then there's Endymion, coredroid, bindroid and so on.
What I really want to know is what one works flawlessly and is smooth. Any suggestions to help me choose?

Endymion. By far the most stablest ROM.

I also vote for endymion, not out of my own experience (I'm a cm freak^^), but because lowveld is a great dev and supporter and many users are happy with it.
But, your best bet would be to try it out yourself, hyperion i.e. is also pretty good sense 3.0 or lbc_mod if you like 2.1 better.
Last but not last coredroid also got many users.

Wow thanks for quick replys sounds like endy is the one to go for then. One other thing that has always bothered me with miui, is camera quality better with sense roms I always thought it got slightly worse when I changed to miui. It might just be me

Everything will always be better with sense, which for me is extremely disappointing as i'm not a huge fan of sense.

True, I believe that the camera app is better optimized to take advantage of the camera.

Had endymion on most of the day now and first thing that I've noticed near instantly is the screen burn is far worse than on any other Rom I've used.
This may be due to the general theme being more black on white than others, not sure but it really irritates me.

Used Endymion for a few days its good and smooth but can't stay away from miui you just can't personalize sense enough. O well got to keep trying these things that's the joy of nandroid backups.

About an hour ago I didn't know anything about cyanogen, or what kind of mod it was. So I did some basic research, then on these forums I looked at some C7 base mods, the issue is, there are more than one of them!
I like the fact they come without sense, better battery life and are 'clean'. Currently I'm using Mikes hd revolution 3.6.2 and it works a treat. But I fancy a non-sense Rom.
Could anyone with experience tell me what I'm in for (pros and cons) and perhaps point me to the best Cyanogen mod around?
Thanks in advance.
I run the CM7 Alpha-version from the CyanogenMod website. It can be found here: http://forum.cyanogenmod.com/forum/401-htc-sensation-experimental-mod/ (see the sticky post a the top).
A few known issues aside (which don't concern me much), so far, it works great for me - the phone really feels much better without Sense. I definitively won't go back to a Sense ROM.

I agree with this. I would recommend you use the official CM7 from kmobs himself. After you expirment with the original cm7, you can try different variations of it

No the selfkang is exactly the same. The other roms are based off the selfkang and are themed with extra bits added/removed and some are more optimised.

The selfkang version is the official version developed by kmobs himself. Other Roms use cm7 as a base, but I recommend you use selfkang 9

Okay thanks for clarifying. I keep going back and fourth between ARHD and CM7 because I absolutely hate the CM7 camera issues. My FFC on CM7 even takes picture upside down??? Crossing my fingers the stable version will have a solid all functioning camera with zero glitches.

i personally got tired of CM7/MIUI variations running on my old SGS1 and i got the Sensation mainly because of Sense
whenever i install cm7 or miui i feel my old phone is back and i start missing sense straight away
Hey everyone tomorrow morning I'm getting my sensation and can't be more excited.
Just wanted to say tomorrow I will be rooting my phone asap
Any suggestions on some good starter Roms?

awesome bro i remember seeing you in those forums I too switched
as for roms depends whether you want sense or not
MIUI is perfect AT this moment. based on the HTC ICS Base so you get both the camera and everything else working.
Official HTC Rom like ARHD, coredroid etc - Stable and fast rom with Sense 3.6(personally dislike Sense but you can install a mod to make it just like stock android, look under themes and apps)
CM9 - video camera doesnt work so well, bluetooth no go,
sense 4 - camera not so much with no autofocus, but almost good enough
I suggest - ICS stock rom with HTC base. like hypernonsense

I came from mt4g and found the sensation easier to root. I am running coredroid on the mt4g and on my sensation. The mt4g is for my son, he bought one off a kid at school for $20, because the kid didn't like the battery life. I am real happy with coredroid on both phones. Just make sure to go through a few battery cycles before judging any of the roms, most will break in and give great battery life in a few days, at least in my experience.
+1 for ARHD - its the most stable, the most fastest and the support is amazing.... (IMO)
I highly recommend trying it out. Throw in Sebastians kernel and having a Full day AND a half battery wont be a rarity any more.
there are a lot of guides on how to flash it, Its the most popular ROM, The guides are fairly simple, and if you dont like it, flash to something else

You'll have to flash gapps.
I've tried alot of roms but keep coming back to one Rom, that's Ordroid. I just love it! Recently I've tried Pkmn, Elegenceia, insert coin, and more but I'm drawn back to Ordroid. It's so nice, smooth x fast x and the customization can't be beat! I'm probably gonna try a few more for the sake of trying them but it's likely I just come back to Ordroid again! It's so lovely! Unless there is something out there that knocks my socks off I'm probably going to keep Ordroid. Hope this helps in some way

Sent from my Sensation using xda premium
I would say Pkmn rom with sense 4.0 is best for customisation, the amount of tweaks available is staggering, along with great performance
For me it would have to be Virtuous Inquisition. I wasn't a fan of Sense 3.6 and prefer the stock ICS look, tho Sense 4 looks amazing and I have yet to try a ROM running it. I'll probably try PkMn eventually but I'm loving VI right now!
As requested by a lot of ROM chefs please dont compare ROM's as it can be rude and offensive to chefs

You know I haven't begun the process because the phone on stock is just so killer man. I'm sure by tomorrow I'll get bored and install a ROM. I've been looking into the roms including energy and they all seem to have they're little known bugs. I think I'll be giving energy I try first but the theme looks like the other energy roms on the other phones I think and I really don't want a ROM looking just like the amaze the screenshots look similar. As of know I'm running the latest ota update and smooth butter here I def feel it was worth the upgrade.

Better than being on HSDPA all the time, but sync is by far the worst drainer.
Mine is AMAZING but I'm on 'JellyBam' not just JB so don't know if that is the difference cuz my battery lasts from 7am to 10pmish from texting/calling/internet browsing/downloading games & apps/ plus using Skype during the day as well, maybe try a ROM if your on stock ROM with JB update?
