[Q] Which is the best ROM?

Hi guys,
Been running the HTC Desire & LG Optimus 3D for the last 12 months, done a bit of work on both and tried pretty much every ROM availiable for both phones. Just got hold of a Sensation that I'm looking to Root, S-Off, install CWM and then install the best stable ICS ROM.
Looking for one that gives full ICS experience with good battery life but is still fast and smooth.
Thanks in advance for your suggestions.
John

Best stable ICS rom is stock ICS rom like this one HERE (thanks mike1986)
This is my very personal opinion of course.

insertcoin roms are the bestest roms in the forums
ofcorse this is mine n millions others opinon

These are my favorites in descending order:
1. Insert Coin
2. ARHD
3. Elegancia

I tried all of them. Believe me the best rom (stable, fast, nice) rom is stock ics
rom. install 3.32.401.105 version, then leedroid tweaks + Beats audio + 1.5 ghz sebastian kernel. This is what rommakers does. this is best for me.

ARHD Kernel Question

Hi quick question about the kernel choices in Android Revolution HD 6.6.1
It gives you the choice to choose between 3 kernels.
The first is the stock kernel, but my question is about the custom kernels:
Faux123 & Sebastian(something) -
Whats the difference?
Any one which is better?
Any advantage or disadvantages to either?

each has their own advantages / disadvantages. But its up to you to try them and see which one suits YOU !
I have always used sebastians Kernel, I found it gave great stability and good battery
Im currently using FAUX now, and i find it gives excellent performance...
There is no better / worse kernel, nor is there a better / worse ROM or anything else for that matter.
Its all down to the user and what they want from it, So try both, Test them for a few days and see which you prefer...
Both kernels are fantastic, with regular improvements and updates too !

Thanks for the responses!!!
Yeah I'm using the Faux kernel at the moment and have definitely noticed an improvement on performance when compared to the stock kernel.
Only thing I haven't got to check is battery life, if that holds up well then I'll be very happy. Probably give it a try for a week then try the Sebastian one for a week then decide.
Overall though really happy with the performance boost on the Faux kernel.. just hope it not a placibo effect.

Can I really decide between kernels while flashing Rom? Or do I have to download and flash it mzself?

Most custom ROMS will let you choose a kernel or stay with stock. I rather flash kernels on my own after flashing the Rom with stock.

[Q] Best ROM + kernel for battery

What do you think? What's the best choice?
Thanks for all answers.
EDIT:
No sense rom plz ;p

hi i 've try the miui last version(official kernel), paranoidandroid v20 (official kernel) and the vipers 1.4.1 (sebastian kernel), and the winner is ......
:good::good::good: VIPER ROM !!!!!!!

U could use kernel tuner to change ur governor to a more battery saving setting. Like conservative for example.
Heres the link if u dont have it: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1719934

+1 on Paranoid v.20
Seems like a pretty good ROM - better experience than bruce's november-builds.
I wonder if v.21 is worth the update. No issues so far, just slow until I changed the governor from ondemand to badass.
*edit*
Actually, turns out v.20 was still painfully slow after running a few apps. Just upgraded to v.21 - it has been running perfectly so far.

If battery is what you want BRICKED is the best and there's no discussion about it. I have tried every possible kernel, but have always come back to bricked.

+1 if talking about battery Bricked is the best. I use Pyd-x. Pretty good battery life & great performance. It all depends on device... Try and choose which suits better to your device

Rom for best battery life
Miui is the best rom as it gives the maximum battery life try it !!!

IMHO, the best rom if you want long lasting battery life is sense based rom.
However now I'm using HyperNonSense by SpIder and it's good for me.
