I'm on cm7 nightly 30 and loving it. Just checked and the 31 was released yesterday. I've noticed a huge increase in battery life and performance, especially without ADW Launcher and just using stock Gingerbread's instead.
I'm using the CoreDroid theme. It has excellent battery life and its smooth and fast. In the 4.8 update I noticed it had bast wifi signal pickup. Once they fix it ill recommend it

Leedroid or CM7

Give MIUI a try, just to check it out.
I agree w charlieb Leedroid is way to go

It's kind of a personal choice. I like RCMix, Coredroid, and Leedroid. I am currently hooked on Di11igaf's ROM, though. It's all about what you like, so just give them all a try and see what you prefer.
Depends on what you like, either be performance or look, I really like the sense UI, but I also love a fast phone, I have tried Coredroid, Android revolution, stock and Cyanogenmod 7, so far Android revolution seems to be the most stable of all, Coredroid had several apps force close and CM 7 was acting weird tried several flashes and all ended in reboot loop.
TPC v2 with Leedroid Kernel 2.2.8 is lightning fast, not a single issue with anything, gps locks in 10-15 seconds on 7+ sats, 2+ DL, 1.4+ UL speeds on average (i've hit 4+ DL and 2+ UL depending on time of day and location) and the battery is a huge increase over stock. Was seeing about 8 hours before battery warning with stock, now 12 with same usage (alot of conference calls, LiveProfile messaging, and march madness updates ). I flashed the dilligaf but had some issues with connection speed, but the rom and kernel are INSANE fast and he hasnt even OC'd the kernel yet (quadrant pulled a 2200, my current tpc/lee with stock OC+18 i only hit mid 1800s).
CM7 isnt done yet, for linux users its like a rolling distro, too many kinks and hate having to update nightly to find out what is working now and what that update broke, i need something stable as this is my work and personal phone, 'my android kernel ruined my radio' wouldnt be an acceptable excuse.
I haven't really wanted the flash of the other ROMs as i usually remove all the widgets from my home screen. If i want to know the weather, i goto the weather on the internet, if i want the news, i look it up, i dont need it updating on my phone constantly, and grouping of the icons defeats the purpose of having 5 home screens anyway, so that point seems moot....the only ROM i'm currently interested in is the ASOP style once dilligaf is done....my 2cents

My market wouldn't update with TPC and I could not stand the animations with LeeDroid although his kernel is the best out right now. My current setup is in my sig, was on RcMixHD 5.2 for ages but after a while, the novelty of Gingerbread wore off. I can't see any benefit of using a Sense Gingerbread ROM until custom kernels are available. I also ran CM7 for a while but I can't keep away from Sense, I love it!

FYI, dilligaf just dropped a new kernel with OC, i run the ext2 kernel version and all my benchmark scores outdo lees (who i was JUST running and loved)....his rom is coming out shortly as well, probably my next flash
Sorry to add to the mix but I have tried them all and have made CoreDroid my daily rom. Battery life like no other and fewest problems. GPS locks on 9 sats at 60 MPH and has a 9' margin of error! See my posts within his thread if you wish it has screenshots.

i would have to agree with this guy ^^^
SS v5 is the best rom hands down, dopest dope you've ever smoked
I get at least 40+ hours of moderate use, and only have to charge every other day.
CM7 nightlies Scary Kernel Stable because it's the fastest most up to date rom with the best battery life.
Mik 1.6, smooth and functional... no custom Kernel as of yet though.
I run a newer cm7 nightly. I used to run shift deck which is really close to stock AOSP which is what I want but it hasn't been updated in ages so I went with CM7 which does have a few bells and whistles (some call it bloat) on top of stock AOSP like ADW launcher and a few things like that but for the most part it still feels like an AOSP rom and you can very easily set it up to look and feel exactly like AOSP.
I am using the stock kernels that come with the roms now. They have overclock options and seem fine. I have used scary stable but didn't notice any difference so I don't bother any more.
I really like Sense roms as I feel they are more fluid mostly when swiping between home screens but I cannot stand that there is about a 5 minute timer on the notification light before it shuts off even if you haven't cleared the notification. I rely on that light while I am at work so I have to stick with an AOSP ROM that flashes the light indefinitely until I clear it. I can also set the light to flash orange or green depending on which notification I am receiving which I find handy for text messages which I place a larger priority over than say a Wordfeud notification while I am at work
I usually do one cycle of charge fully, wipe battery stats, discharge completely until phone shuts off then recharge fully whenever I flash a new ROM and I haven't noticed any better or worse battery based on which ROM I have used.
How's battery life on Mik 1.6???

What exactly are you waiting on? Do you mean you just haven't rooted? Because you can now Root GB Shift's by downgrading to Froyo. Check HERE and HERE. Either of those threads will get you rooted if your on GB . As for MikShifted G v1.6 by aamikam, it is an excellant Rom . You should also check out Supreme Sense V5, by strapped365. It's based off MikShifted G , with a lot more eye candy . Both of those are Smooth, Stable, and quick. I have both of those running on serveral different devices with NO issues. Still waiting on the Source Code Kernel to be able to overclock. But both of those run excellent without being overclocked ( this coming from a SPEED Junkie ) .

Couldn't agree with you more both MikShifted G and Supreme Sense V5 are great running roms and cant wait to run these roms overclocked
SupremeSense V5 with the stock/default SenseUI theme found on the Mik forums
Reason why is for SenseUI 3 w/ 3D launcher effects
I switch between mikrom 1.6 and shiftdeck 1.2.1 with x99 kernel.
i was using scarystable but the usb disk access wasn't working
Miui Rom and stock kernel that came with it.
Reason: tried something new and needed something fast and customizable

I'm not saying scary stable is bad. But for MY shift
Scary average battery temp - 136°
PershootV9 average - 101°
Big difference. That's when im actually using my phone, i multitask a lot.
Scary kernel - while playing my game online ill lose connection about once every 5 minutes
PershootV9 - never lost connection once, only like 2 or 3 lag bumps
Battery life for appears to be about equal give or take maybe an hour.

I am currently running beans custom stock ROM v5 and I haven't ran synergy yet but I was wondering which ROM was better. Before I get Beans v6 I'd like to have some input on which ROM was better based on battery life/other things.
Sent from my SCH-I535 using Tapatalk 2
Well I started with bean R2 when I first rooted. Then tried synergy which my buddy had phenomenal battery life with. I however didn't even though I was running less and theoretically should have had better. I gave it a week but didn't see any improvement. Went back to bean but tried his updated 3.1. Was better than synergy In my opinion as far as battery life goes but had some quarks with it. Next day he came out with V5 so I flashed that. Had worse battery life than 3.1 but better than synergy. Meanwhile my buddy was still getting better battery life with his synergy. I decided to go back to the original R2 I had at first. It is the best performing For ME. I would try each and see what you like better. I was on my the boat all day today (again, currently running R2) and got 84% 12 hours. Keep in mind most of that was minimal use of texts and web browsing. Mist was screen off with with setcpu screen off profile (348). Still was nice to have a full day with it turned on even if screen was off and then still have a full battery to use when I got off the river.
For me...bean R2 for the win. I don't mind wiping and trying a promising ROM but I also like having a solid ROM that gets me what I want/need without having to worry about what the next new thing is.

I'm also using beans r6. Everything seems a lot smoother...but my phone does run hot. He has the default CPU set at 1.9 gighz. Sometimes it doesn't clock down with the app. I'm going to try synergy when they release the new version...but its hard not to like beans.
Sent from my SCH-I535 using xda app-developers app
I used both, beans r5 kept rebooting on me but the battery life seemed better than stock. Then i switched to synergy 1.3 and it is an awesome rom. 4x5 homescreen alone is worth the upgrade from bean, but the battery is just a little less than bean r5. I have no tried r6 but i dont think i will because i just flashed CM10 an hour ago and couldint be happier. I forgot how much i miss stock android JB (used to have galaxy nexus). its a lot smoother and better to use and look at obviously. Only thing i dislike about the rom is the hardware buttons back and menu dont turn off they stay on if the screen is on, but its not that bad. I saw Flash CM10 you will be happy!
CM10 is a half working rom at this point, don't know how anybody uses it as a reliable daily driver, as for clocking on Bean's rom, you can control it yourself, just run the cpu bin from a terminal window, or use rom tools or setcpu
I use beans but I use beans 3.1 before the stupid overclocked kernel and before kexec kernel /recovery

the overclock issue is fixed...beans b6 rocks! actually i never had that issue anyways.
I think I'm going to stick with beans r6 I'm loving the jelly bean theme. If your complaining about battery on beans because of the kernel just under clock it or use power saving, your phone will not run hot and you will get better battery life. If you want a higher clock speed use 1512 or 1674 MHz, you may run a little hotter and your battery may drop a little faster than if you were on power saving though.

I have to disagree strongly with the assertion that CM10 is a "half working rom." If you're not one of the people experiencing data connectivity issues, the current bugs are: bluetooth audio, MMS, camera autofocus with stock camera app (for some), and that native wifi tethering only works unsecured (usb & bluetooth tethering work fine.)
I used it as my daily driver from 7/21 on, and the only thing I personally missed was secure wifi tethering. If the above bugs don't affect things that you use, CM10 is much snappier overall than any of the 4.0 based roms.
I actually decided to try Beans again just to see if I missed any touchwiz features (smart stay, direct dial, etc.)
synergy
I'm currently running synergy v1.3, but i liked v1.2 a lot better. Mainly because the grid size was changed so now widgets look a little weird on my phone =/ but other than that i haven't had a problem. Battery life is insanely good. I used bean's rom when it first came out, got me 50gb of dropbox for free which was awesome. The stock apps weren't on the first build though, that's why i switched over to synergy. I think Bean's rom has them back on though. I suggest trying them both and making backups, they're both very good
Yea Im running Beans v6 just upgraded from either 3 or 2, and yea its wicked fast. I guess with Synergy there are more themes but they should work on Beans too. Anyway it is definitely worth a try just backup beforehand :good:

They are both good. It's a subjective preference and you won't know which you prefer until you try both.

LOL, all those bugs certainly sound like it is half working (or not working depending on how you look at it).
I tried it for a few days & will definitely agree that's it's way to buggy to be a daily driver at this point.
IMHO, to be a daily driver all the native functions the system came with have to work 100%
Yeah synergy 1.4 is insanely snappy and quick. To a noticeable degree. I love v6 of beans though, but synergy just goes without having to be pushed
But I still use both just to get my flash fix, lol. Beans has more of what I'm looking for (aosp theme) with stock feel.

Just the thread I was looking for! I am currently getting tired of the random bugs with CM10, but I'm wondering if I can just flash Synergy or Beans the way I have been flashing CM10 builds using the Kexec recovery.

I think both are great RomS. I personally have synergy installed right now because it was just released. There are some things I like about synergy and some things I like about beans. With beans you can flash different kernels without any problems but when I try to flash different kernels on the synergy1.4 I keep getting bootloop. Beans and synergy both seem to be pretty good on batter but I also use CPU sleeper which might also help.

i can say that there are almost no bugs other than the existing.
Games lag sometimes but im not sure yet if its GPU or my CPU settings (max 1024)
Battery life is a problem tho... it can last for a day with busy sms and medium to busy calls...
but still not sure how it will perform in a busy week day..
going back to the army tomorrow and im thinking of ICS/MIUI/Sense than JB
sense
i definitely prefer the vanilla look, and JB is soo smooth. though it seems to me that there is not yet one vanilla rom for our device that is completely stable. im using clean and light sense rom, which is really fast and has great battery life, while praying for a stable vanilla rom :angel:
You could perhaps try ICE DS (Sense 3.6) with the tweaked v6.0 kernel, I'm using this now and it's rock solid which seems like what you'd want! I also run Apex launcher, so you get a bit of the vanilla feel in the homescreen/app drawer (but with more options!)
I don't think it'll be long til we get a more stable JB, but if you're going away it's a much better idea to have something reliable.
so, guys, i need battery life... at least 1.5 day without charge with only normal sms usage.
Is there any chance that ICE DS with tweaked kernel v6 can hold that much?
I know that CNA (JB) cant hold that much... even tho i love it...

You can achieve that to any ROM if you have a properly calibrated battery, turned off WiFi, GPS, Background Data (Gingerbread and below), Auto-sync off, Brightness preset, GSM network only, and to an area where GSM reception is high. Zero or no reception tends to make your OS to let your radio work harder just to have a network from your provider.
Additionally, if you have an optimized custom ROM, not play so much games, tweaked properly and not so much OC, UV proper governor, not much app running in the background will also help
Basically, turn off the other features that make your smartphone a "smartphone" and just use it mainly for talk and sms. You're better off with a Nokia 3310 if you will. Chuck Norris seems to be the only match for that phone.
Sent from my HTC Desire S using xda app-developers app
I haven't been able to test ICE DS's battery to be able to recommend it for you, I'm currently trying different governors etc. and although the rom is great the battery life is not, thus far.
Before this I was using Fallout, and I think I'd recommend that. Flash 4.4,the UV tweaked kernel (the zip worked fine for me, I used 1200/245 on demand and sio settings). Decide if you like sweep2wake and get rid if not (I did, instructions in the thread.)
With this setup I got close to 30 hours after properly charging and discharging after flashing.
I would also highly recommend apex launcher like I said before, which gives you a ton of options to play with and a stock feel. Finally, itandy has made a brilliant app available in the development forum, that allows you to keep lock screen shortcuts with a non-rosie launcher.
I hope that helps, it's hard to say how much battery you'll get because you probably use your phone very differently to me, or anyone else. What I've said here is a good bet though. Stay safe!

I haven't been able to test ICE DS's battery to be able to recommend it for you, I'm currently trying different governors etc. and although the rom is great the battery life is not, thus far.
Before this I was using Fallout, and I think I'd recommend that. Flash 4.4,the UV tweaked kernel (the zip worked fine for me, I used 1200/245 on demand and sio settings). Decide if you like sweep2wake and get rid if not (I did, instructions in the thread.)

Guys i know how to save battery, but JB (CNA) droped 1% cz of vibration,
seen it from 72% dropping to 71% and right after to 70% xD
Anw, im just gonna need it for heavy texting, my girl really gets anxious when im in there
I was using Sense4A port from proxuser before, i have to admit that i loved the battery life.
EDIT: i decided to go with Fallout & also download ICE_DS and CNA on my SDcard...
if i find any problem with Fallout im gonna backup my messages and contacts and switch to ICE_DS..
Now there goes a battery testing for soldiers =p

still JB is not stable enough =/
any ideas?

In your personal opinion. CM9 and 10 are both stable enough for me so I'm happy, if you aren't go and help the development of JB ROMs.
After recently getting my fancy sgs3 stolen, I'm seriously considering keeping the Infuse as my daily driver, rooted and flashed with custom rom.
That said, if I was shooting for rock solid stability and maximum battery life anyone can possibly squeeze out of this (strangely high spec for a 2 year old) device, where would I begin?
Any kind of suggestions on kernels/radios/roms modification would be greatly appreciated!
For reference: right now I'm running aeon 1.4, pulling two gmail accounts with smatterings of ebook reading, IM'ing and tumblr posting. And the phone lasts for about two hours of screen time, six to ten hours of battery life per day.
Again, thanks guys!

Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but if your running Aeon 1.4SL you should be able to flash one of the Synthesis kernels (1.2 GHz for best batt life) and video/MHL will still work without having to worry about flashing the restore. This should improve your overall battery life some. I'm new to this so you may want to wait for some experience to chime in. I have however flashed the 1.2 GHz Synthesis kernel while on Emancipation A1 and seen improved battery life.

When I run GB, I use AEON 1.4 SL. I usually get a little more than 1 day with moderate use. 2+ days with light use. I run Entropy's 4/4/12 Daily Driver as a kernel and UCLB3 for my modem. I used UCKL2 for a little while because I had issues with signal strength at my home but it drained my battery more quickly.

I haven't tried the Synthesis kernel because I've been running JB recently. But the response in the forums has been positive. You should give it a spin.

Hmm that battery life sounds a bit better than what I get... I guess there's certainly room to tweak around with stuff.
How do you feel about running post ICS roms on infuse 4G so far? Are they worth it? Any significant performance/battery life hits you've noticed so far?

The JB roms are very good although they do push the Infuse hardware pretty hard. They're very smooth and the only things that don't work are 720p video and MHL (if I remember correctly). Battery life is about the same although you might have to tweak the CPU settings a bit.
----edit----
The JB roms do experience some instability because, if I understand the situation correctly, they use a modified GB kernel. This can sometimes cause unexpected reboots or shut downs. It hasn't been an issue for me but if you're looking for stability, you can't go wrong with GB.
Do either of you use the Facebook app with Aeon? If so, do notifications for FB work for you? Sorry to go off topic but I posted this question in my own thread and got no response. Thanks.
I applied the V6 supercharger script after having serious memory lags (running consistently at 55Mb free, couldn't use the keyboard, open anything). I now am at 180-220Mb free, no texting issues and battery life seems better than stock.

I noticed it with Beanstalk 4.3.1001, it got worse with the 4.3.1009. It's all good now running on 4.3.1015-20131026 with the V6 script. I manually unchecked the Memory Management settings to see if there was any difference, there wasn't.

FB notifications worked for me back when I ran AEON

That's good to know. What scripts did you run from V6 Supercharger?

Easy to install and implement. I did both #6 & #7 to see which worked better, I've been running after selecting #7 for about 2 weeks now.
