Get any rom that does NOT have sense or sense components, and u should be good. Examples: Gingerbeast, Android revolution + no sense patch

Yes. Beautiful Widgets (paid app) has one similar. MIUI's weather/clock widget looks similar if you like the iOS look.
I've achieved the best battery life from MIUI (OC'd to 1.2ghz) with cattleprod's cyan04.7 Kernel running JuiceDefender. It's what I ended up sticking with after trying quite a few.
Personally, I love the look and feel of iOS so the added functionality of Android and much better battery life than stock is everything I could ask for.

Even with the no sense patch- sense framework is all still there, plus some sense apks that can't be removed.
Just pointing that out
TPGB Battery works great!
TPGB, hands down.

Agree TPGB has had the best battery for me of 5 different roms I've tried, in my experience sense roms have had the worst

I've tried just about every rom out there, and my experience is that there is not dramatic difference among them. The display is always the biggest consumer. Not matter what rom you're using, the display will consume what it's going to consume...

You state Honeysense. Are you v4 or V5? Plusbwhat settings because of couldn't get a full day out of the battery.

Android revolution, cognition, and cm7 are good.
I know this has probably been asked plenty of times, but I'm bored of cyanogenmod (again) and wanted people's opinions on the best as we seem to be getting a lot of official support now. Which sense rom is your favourite and reasons why please?
I've had my fun with ICS and am now waiting for a stable release so no ICS recommendations for ICS please.

Choice of ROM is a very personal thing but at the moment I am using Endymion v3 and am extremely happy with it. It just seems to work, and I use it heavily for work - Bluetooth, Wireless, Calls, SMS, Camera, GPS etc

I've seen Endymion as the best choice and I would've switched back to it but the list has grown since I flashed Endymion which is why I wanted to know which people prefer now.

Another vote for Endymion very nice rom with great support,even though I'm on aosp oxygen at the moment as it absolutely flys.

I'm Endymion V3 and just wouldn't consider anything else to be honest .The help and support lowveld gives is amazing
i also use endymion v3 if i had the delight to use sense
I use Endymion 2.2 with the fixes from 3.0. I only like the stock look, so don't feel the need to theme and lose 200+mb.
It's all personal preference!

+1 to endymion v3 here too!! great sense 3.5 rom, excellent battery life and awesome tweaks!
The only gripe I have is the the sense 3.5 dockbar, I find it ugly and somewhat blown up, especially with the text (applications, personalization)
kept changing between the two-button bliss bar and stock 3.5 bar and couldn't settle on either
hope someone would make a sense 3.0 /2.1 dockbar mod for it!!
Is there a way to sense 3.5 rom has a normal font for the screen of our Desire S? Small fonts is something that annoys me a lot, and see how Rhyme rom only has something like that, but it seems that unfortunately proxuser left development of the Rom :/

However when I went to use a Desire S in the store again, 2.1 sense, the icons and fonts were massive!! I was like wow!!
Also I used the Sensation XL, and sense 3.5 looks lovely on it, the icons are all giant and easy to see!

I been playing with roms on my sensation for a long long time now. I have tried probally every rom there is. Some days il try 5 diff roms in an evening. Its almost a hobby to me now. I am currently using ViperS. I also prefer sense roms over aosp and aokp roms. Whenever i have tried jellybean roms like cm10 etc. It is so fast. So smooth. Unreal. Then after playing with it. I go flash viperS or elgencia. Whatever and its back to clicking an app or going through a menu and waiting 3 seconds or so for it to open. A sluggish expeeience compared to jb roms. My question is simple. Why is jb so smooth and its not even suppose to run on this phone. And older roms sluggish. Any info appreciated. Thanks.
Edit. Have tried every kernel known to man. Not wanting to know how to make, for example, viperS smoother. Just wondering why jellybean roms so smooth

Jellybean is loaded whit project butter which makes on touch the processor clock to the max and the frame per second has been upgraded to 60 oh and rendering 3 times faster so yeah its all about "project butter" i guess.

I don't think your comparing jb with ics in your post i think? I might be wrong though. Sounds like your comparing aosp or aokp with sense. When of course aosp is going to move compared to sense.

Possibly. It is true, i have never tried ics aosp or aokp roms. Only ics roms i have used are all sense based and ofcourse all fhe jelly bean roms are not sense.

I can see that. Going from a aosp ics to a jb rom you can tell better performance. So going from sense to jb is a huge difference.

Hi all
I'm very torn as to which ROM I stay on.
I've been switching between Viper ROM & CM10. Both are awesome ROMs but I can't decide which I prefer more.
I really like the integration that sense gives you over AOSP but can't get away from the fact that CM 10 is giving amazing battery life.
If anyone can steer me in any direction I'd appreciate it.
Sent from my HTC Sensation using xda premium
Im on jb because its smooth and stable.
Sense has great options. But so does cmx
Sent from my HTC Sensation using xda app-developers app
Nobody can really make the descision for you. You need to decide which is more important for you, good intergration of apps, or better battery life? After that, it's an easy choice to make.
I really like both for those reasons, back on viper again now will probably check CMX soon
Sent from my HTC Sensation Z710e using xda premium
why not just keep both on your phone and change to which ever one you fancy with boot manager................sudeki300
Go with one and commit to it. It's like when you're dating two girls at once, and they're both great, but eventually you have to pick one or the other. You're playing with their emotions. Do you want the bust y blonde in sense, or the amazing personality brunette with maybe some aesthetic flaws? You just have to tell one to take a hike and go all in with the other. Pimp out CM10, enjoy Sense 4s beauty, whatever.
For me, I'm a CM10 guy even though sense is much better for organizational purposes right of the bat. But the thing is, I can organize just fine with CM10, just takes a little more customization.
Sent from my HTC Sensation using xda app-developers app
That's a fantastic way to put it. I'm going to try CMX and few different launches, any recommend launches, reading loads of post but personal experience is alway more valuable
Sent from my HTC Sensation Z710e using xda premium
I stick with Sense because Wifi-calling is a must for me, but if cm10 had that, I would definitely head in that direction.
Decided to go with CM10 for now.

The deal breaker for me is wifi-calling. When that exists on jellybean, then I will switch.

Well I'm back on Viper now, started to experience multiple problems on the latest build of CM10, will probably revisit it when its a bit more (although it is pretty good already)

what do you like about sense so much? the camera app?
I'm on Sense 4 and I don't plan on going to JB unless we get an official kernel or ffc is fixed.
My memory card have 15gb of full hd songs...so sense is good for me because playback of some codec in every player sucks in cmx....And the customization of viper also attracts me...so am in viper

Sense just feels more fluid and connected. For example, clock weather widget, tap on the time and it takes you straight to alarm clock,timer,stop watch. Tap the weather and you get the forecast.
To achieve the same on an AOSP Rom, needed to find a clock widget (fancy sense) then a timer and stop watch app, then a weather app and then set the widget up to open the secondary apps.

for me its the whole UI, to me it just looks good and feels fluid and fast to use. Tbh I dont use camera app at all, if I want to take a photo, I have a dedicated camera...
My whole life I've used AOSP until about 2 months ago. With sense I feel the phone is just more intact, by that I mean stuff just works. Like the kernel has no hacks or whatever, all the libs are there, all the kernel codes, hardware and software seem to cooperate more. I personally feel the sensation was meant to run sense, despite not liking the aesthetic look, everything is fluid and works wonderful

Do you notice a significant drop in battery life with Apex Launcher? I am using CM10 and get good battery life, but when I installed NOVA launcher my battery life cut in half easily. Just wondering how the other launchers are?

I always use Nova Launcher when on an AOSP ROM, which is almost all the time. I don't think Nova hurts my battery life either. I use multiple themes too. A few of my favorites are Mixer, Cobalt, and Vivid. I use a few more but those are always in the rotation.
If I'm using Sense, it's Liamstears theme for Viper ROM.

Anyone see the IIDA Rom? Different take with the tiled apps and no app drawer! I returned back to viper as I have grown fond of sense again.
