Could use some suggestions.

I've used every rom on XDA and they're all great in their own way. I'm currently running the latest miui by whitehawkx. At first it was great but now I'm getting slow down and random loss of signal that only returns with a restart. I also have problems with the screen not turning back on properly. I press the lock button and the screen will light up like its about to turn on or it will flash the lockscreen for a second then go blank. Only fix is to relock then unlock again, quite a pain.
I'm looking for a daily rom that will get me at least 9 hours of battery life, is fast and responsive. Like I said, I've used all of the roms here but I don't want to go through the hassle of setting everything up for each rom and testing for multiple days to make a choice. Personal choices are welcome but please say why you like it.
On a side note, does anyone know why updates have pretty much stopped for all the roms our phone can use?
Thank you!

Try Weapon 3. I have been using it for a few weeks without any problems. Better battery life is accomplished with turning off GPS, Bluetooth and data when you're not using them. As well, don't run unnecessary apps and don't overclock.

Was actually in the process of downloading weapon. I can't shut data off since I need constant access to my email but otherwise I already do the other things. I've only been able to get about 10 max on my phone regardless of the rom, might have a bad battery.

I used GiggleBread with Trinity kernel and got over 25 hours as a max. On average I'd be around 16-18 hours with that combo. Try that. And this is with moderate use.

Wtf is gigglebread? If its on xda then I stand corrected in my statement that Ive used all the roms.

Screen freeze on wake

I recently flashed weapon g2x rom. Everything was cool til I woke my phone and tried unlocking it but the screen was unresponsive. I do a battery pull phone starts up up and screen is fine. Screen goes to sleep so I wake it up and try sliding to unlock but its unresponsive. Please help. BTW I am not putting any blame on weapon rom Dev team.

Did you properly wipe before you flashed the ROM? Is this happening on a clean install? (No apps)?
Sent from my LG-P999 using xda premium

Followed the install instructions verbatim. BTW I was stock GB before flashing. Happened before I dloaded any apps. Now it freezes when making calls. When I take the phone away from mg ear the screen is unresponsive.

You might have a defective device. Does it tend to get hot whenever it locks up? How long have you had this issue for?
Sent from my LG-P999 using xda premium

Flashed the rom 3 days ago and issue started today. Had this phone for 3 months. Doesn't get hot or even noticeably warm. I got the go locker app with ics lockscreen. After i wake it up its unresponsive for about 30 seconds then the backlight dims and becomes responsive again. Weird. Maybe restore back to froyo(nandroid)? Thanks for your replies.

Try reformatting your phone, then flash again

Reformat? You mean wipe everything? Through cwm?

Yep that is what he means. If you were on Froyo you may need to do the update and get the current Baseband.

Okay I'll do that and see what happens. Thanks guys

Hey this may sound silly but if it's only the lockscreen not responding and you stating you are using the ics lockscreen, did you try with the default lockscreen to rule that out first?

Not silly at all. I tried the original lockscreen that came with weapon rom. I would wake the phone with no response but with go locker LS the screen responds after 30 seconds of unresponsiveness. Its weird but I don't think its a hardware issue. I'll post back after I restore back to Froyo. Thanks again guys
Sent from my LG-P999 using xda premium

Yeah i agree, don't think it's a hardware issue. Restoring back or trying another rom would be a good test. Another question..are you using setcpu or any other app with a screen off profile?
Edit: Went back to read all the symptoms again and i had a similar situation and it was because my phone could not handle the lower voltages on the min freq with a few kernels. Morfic upped the lower freq voltage on his kernel and it has been working perfectly since. Worth a try.
Try this one: ELPmax 20122011 (1.1GHz Battery Saver w/ voodoo sound)

Tried flashing kernel and phone froze on Trinity load screen. Restored to nandroid but no luck. Updated to stock GB but no luck. I'm starting to think might be a problem with proximity/ light sensor cause of how the phone freezes up after I pull the phone away from my face after a call. Guess I'll send it to Texas for warranty repair.
Thanks to those that tried helping.

Did you format the "system" before flashing the new rom? Weapon works with no issues for me. I would stay away from custom kernels for now, until you have isolated the issue.
I would suggest backing up your user apps using titanium backup and installing them one by one to find the issue. Let the phone run a while between installing each app. Maybe even reboot each time. Also try fix permissions.
I know nothing about Go Locker, but is sounds like that is a good place to start.

Screen Problem

Ok so i rooted my phone and when i installed a rom every time my screen turns on it shows a bit of static right before it completely turns on this happens on all the romes i try except bionix reloaded for some reason,if anyone can help me outt please do
My Problem Still Exists with All CM7 Based Roms i just hope it wont happen on ICS I found a great rom That does not have this problem with my phone
I think i will keep the Tsugi Rom Because i Really like

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hC8HqBrinBA
at 3 minutes i turn the screen on with no static on Bionix
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YICwp5R_wbM&feature=youtu.be
on MIUI,At the end its in slow motion so you can see

Static? You'd have to try getting a video of it for up to see. Don't know what could be your problem.

Are you talking about a line through the middle of the screen and then you get a full screen? If so that is the "turn on screen animation." Not all roms have this turn on or in them at all. I have never seen or heard of a LCD screen having static. Plus if it was static it would have been on the stock rom and the bionic rom as well

If you are doing reviews and stuff you should probably know what you are talking about. That's the turn off animation @3:00 minutes into the video.

That's what I thought, but he said at 3 minutes there's NO static... so I don't know what he's on about unless it is screen on animation.

yeah thats the only rom that i get no static on i will post a video soon on it

i said under the link on the second reply that there is no static and i just put a video where there is the static on the miui rom. sorry if i cant explain myself right, im just trying to show you that on the Bionix rom their is no static and that on the miui rom there is static
And no i am not trying to get people to see my youtube videos, i just think that its the best way to show whats going on with my phone rather then trying to take a pic of when it happens because taking a pic right when it happens would be hard to do

Are you using the stock kernels with the other roms. If so are you using a app for over/under clocking. Are you using a app for a lock screen. These could be the issue. It looks like it is taking a second to load something.

i didnt install any other kernel other then then the stock one that came with miui port of team kang
and on bionix i flashed the Dragon g2x kernel
And no overclocking or lockscreen apps on either roms

I have no clue what the OP is seeing or talking about only thing at 3 minute mark is the crt animation.
Sent from my LG-P999 using xda premium

He uploaded a new video show what is going on. The first was is with bionic which it does not happen on that rom
Sent from my LG-P999 using xda premium

Okay just saw it I see it now. I haven't ever seen that, maybe set the crt animation for power on and see what happens. The only thing I've seen is the screen turn on with no real image just the blacked out screen then after the picture shows up. I can see why'd that could get annoying to some though. Maybe try a different kernel, or mess with voltages if you have SETCPU.
Sent from my LG-P999 using xda premium

Are you using titanium to restore and apps. When you flash the other roms and before you set up anything does this happen at the beginning. Also are you wiping system, data, delvik, and cashe?

I have a similar thing. Not really static but more so the screen lights up and then actually displays the picture. Does it on all roms for me too. I figure it's a hardware thing.

I was having the same problem. You have to delete the old clock app and reboot. Then it should work fine or at least that's what I did to get it working. Might be a good idea to back up the old clock app before you delete it just in case. Good luck

worked for me ,
its funny because i was getting force closes and i was trying to delete the 4.2 app and accidently deleted the old 4.1 clock and it fixed the problem .
i love the look of the new 4.2 clock . also the night mode is easier on the eyes .

What happened to the installable version? The one you can do without root?

After flashing the 4.2 clock, removing the 4.1 clock and rebooting, I get stuck on the "activating..." screen. Is this happening to anyone else?
The clock works perfectly, and I can just hit the home button and it goes away, but now it happens on every reboot and I wouldn't want that process to run in the background...
Any info would be much appreciated!

I'm running RLS7 now. I think it has a few more bugs than RLS6. I would try reinstalling it. I can't get my notification (text) sounds to work. It just keeps vibrating. I also can't seem to keep Weatherbug widget working for more than a hour.
