why am i getting a low battery life on my phone after flashing custom roms? i tried a few roms, and even though the phone is much faster and smoother, the battery life shrinked.
i was told that a custom rom will improve my battery life...
is there any rom that fits my need for battery? or maybe an adjustment i can make so the battery life will improve with the current available roms?
I just recently rooted my DROID CHARGE with the Infinity ROM and I like alot of the features but the main reason I wanted to root was I was told my battery life would triple and it hasn't improved at all in my opinion. I downloaded Battery Calibration and JuiceDefender (free version). Is there a better ROM out there for battery life or a better app to try to help with my battery life?
Also another thing I cannot find which I miss is the Verizon VISUAL VOICEMAIL. Does anyone know where I can find that app to put back on my phone?
Thanks,

A minimal ROM (few and/or dark colors) will most likely give you the best battery life since most of the battery life goes to the display. But i would look at other ways to maximize battery life and run the ROM you like.

I was really pleased with Hyper NonSense but there were a couple bugs I couldn't tolerate anymore. I'm on XenonHD now and the battery life is horrendous. What ROM seems to work best for everyone?
For starters, get an anker. After a few cycles you will notice a huge difference in battery life.
All ROMs are going to be very similar in battery life. There's not a "super" ROM that can last all day and one that can last 3 hours.
My point is, all ROMs are about the same in battery life. An anker will greatly increase the battery life, no matter what ROM.

I actually do have an anker already. The hyper nonsense would last me more than a day sometimes and easily about 16 hours with moderate use but this rom so far cant last 8 hours with use.
Well, 16 hours of use is not bad. What about your on screen time?
I would also try albino's ROM. it doesn't get extreme battery life, but it is decent.
Inspiration ROM also is battery friendly.

For me, the best battery life came from Cyanogenmod 10.1 with stock clock speeds.
ARHD on stock kernel is good for buttery.
INSPIRATION not looks good, but now I am testing it with Badass governor. will report back if good.
Don't forget that you need a few full charge cycles to be accurate. What first can look like a crappy battery life, after a day or two can last a LOT longer.
Usually kernels based of the official htc tend to last longer, like SebastianFM kernel, Bricked kernel, and BanB has also a stock one with overclock.

Teambridge rom is the best. Fast smooth and best batterylife i had*(have?) ever seen
I think Android Revolution HD is one of the best ROM. With stock kernel you have a good battery-saving. By the way I think that stock kernel is a little laggy for my taste, so I use custom kernels (like Sultan or Faux) that drain more battery but sure speed my phone!
I have used VIPERS 1.6.3 for a while now but with Sultans 17.5 kernel. With the help of greenify I have managed to get the battery to last for 1d16h with around 2-3hrs of screen-on.
I also use an ANKER battery and not the stock as the stock one died on me!
I have been told that NON-SENSE ROMs have better battery life, but this VIPERS 1.6.3 and SULTAN kernel seems to be a homerun for me!
OK first it's impossible for all rooms to take the same battery life they all use different default kernels and tweaks which are aimed at performance vs battery vs looks. I found inspiration to be the best so far darksense is great too
