Alright, suggestions on which is better??? Or opinions even....thanks
I have twisted since on y pho.e right now and have no problems at all. But a do still hear a lot of good stuff about the BAND. I tho.k it would mostly come down to personal opinion

Ive not used Twisted Sense but am currently using BAMF Remix 1.5 and have noticed a slight battery life increase.
Also with the enchanced battery charging it recharges alot quicker than stock.
I'm running BAMF Remix 1.5 now and it's pretty good, haven't gotten my hands too dirty with it yet tho.
Ive had both on my tbolt and either way you go you wont be dissappointed!

Same here.
I'm happy with Das BAMF. I'm really waiting for an AOSP ROM. But, credit where it's due, Das BAMF is a good ROM.
I'm also on DAS BAMF 1.5 remix and I'm happy with it. I have not tried Twisted Sense yet.
Any of you using Bamf Remix get any shutdown/random reboots??? I am, and I got nothing like that on stock before.
Im using Bamf remix 1.5, and havent had any random reboots or anything like that. I'm using Adrynalynes 4.4.2 kernal and have it overclocked to 1344. Are you overclocked? that could be the problem
No I haven't touched a setting since I installed it, other than ringtones.
hmm, did you do a wipe dalvik/cache or anything like that when flashing?
I used Rom Manager to do it and did select wipe cache and data, so I'm assuming that took care of everything.
running remix and enjoying it.

Downgrade to the stock LTE radio to fix this. The leaked LTE radio can cause random reboots for some people.

Can I get some input on which will be a good Rom to install to achieve the following:
Sense and HTC widgets intact
VZW bloated removed
No commanded reboots** this is my biggest issue here
Otherwise I'm not picky about what the Rom does or looks looks like.
I've tried the perfect storm and a few others, but those reboots drive me crazy.
Thanks for any input or advice.

What do you mean by commanded reboots?
Regardless, Das BAMF is probably the most popular ROM on this forum and with good reason.
Sent from my ADR6400L using XDA App
I'd recommend Das BAMF 1.6 with the new radio.
I don't know what you mean by "commanded reboots" though? I have never had a random reboot with my TB.
I meant uncommanded reboots, sorry the auto correct changed it and I didnt catch it.
I will give BAMF a try. Thanks for the input.
Yep. Das BAMF Remix 1.6 is great. Make sure to do a full wipe to avoid potential issues and use Zippy's gps fix.

I really like "Virus Rom" I have had zero issues and love the style!
B.A.M.F 1.6 is the best so far for me.
bamf 1.6 is probably the best one for what you want i used it from day one but now that cyanogenmod is out and working flawlessly on my phone ive been using that
I was wondering what I need to do to get back to stock, but stay rooted... I'm running infusedtheory currently. Just getting tired of reboots and freezes with every ROM I've tried. Unless someone can point me to a rock solid ROM... Thanks..

Install one of the stock roms for rooted phones if you want stock on a rooted phone. Gingeritis 3d is rock solid for me
Sent from my TBolt using my f***king thumbs...
If you're getting freezes and reboots on custom roms, that to me sounds more like a kernel/O'C issue or maybe even a hardware problem.
My phone hasn't been unrooted since launch but even when I flashed my first custom Rom everything was much smoother.

infusedtheory is a beta ROM using the new htc kernel. Every ROM using that kernel is having issues.
I would use gingertheory or the older senseless rom by droidtheory. Those have been rock solid for 95% of the users. You might need to play with speedtweak, but droidtheory's roms have been very good.
I got reboots on the old radios but the new mr2 has run great with no reboots on any BAMF roms I've run lately.
Official 1.70.605.0 MR2 OTA
This is the official OTA MR2 ROM rooted and deodexed. This is a stock as you can get while still rooted.
thanks to all of you... i installed the gingeritis 3d and it is running perfectly. i don't think i've used a rom/kernal combination that didn't reboot or turn off on me at some point and i've ran this for nearly 2 days now and its been flawless. just fyi to you guys, i was getting reboots on the mr2, mr2.5, and the newer .627 (i think thats the one) radios, with numerous roms. i installed them correctly, i'm sure of that. not sure what the deal was. oh well, gingeritis 3d is pretty awesome. thanks again everyone.
What's everyone's opinion on these two new roms? My flash addiction is fighting me and craving a new fix, but I'm undecided between these two.
Also, what is the difference between gingeritis and gingeritis 3d?
Synergy. Roms faster and smoother. Like the look of it too, plus more theming options
Gingeritis is just straight sense. Gingeritis3D is similar to the ROM found on the EVO 3D. Other than that they are largely the sale. I'd go with Gingeritis because its been devlopend longer and uses Ziggy's kernel. Other gingerbread kernels don't work well on it. It's rock solid, unlike uber BAMF at this point.
I'm not a fan of Synergy for many reasons. That's all I'm gonna say to that.

What are you doing? Using your phone as a paper weight? ...3 days would be amazing
I was able to get 3+ days out of the extended with regular, moderate use, so 3 days with less apps than I use, less display usage, etc. isn't completely out of the question. Standby battery life is incredible compared to any other build I've used.
I say uber bamf or skyraider zeus
Sent from my ADR6400L using Tapatalk
Gingeritis 1.2 is sense 2.1, gingeritis 3d is sense 3.0, other than that they are exactly the same. Both use ziggys kernel by default and work with any radio mr2 or higher (although they work great with chingys new leak as its taken from the same new base as the rom, same with uber bamf ). Right now im on uber BAMF 2.5 with ziggys kernel clocked @ 1.344, bamf seems to have a bit more lag and slightly less batt life than gingeritis 3d beta 6 for me (which is my dd) hence the oc'ing to get rid of lag. Bamf is cool, over all its a great rom, but little things like rosie remaping, to be smooth as butter with no oc'ing needed, and great support from the man chingy keep me going back to gingeritis 3d beta 6, its by far the most advanced and stable 3d rom out there for the tbolt, imho, and batt life is hands down the best out of every single rom ive been able to get my hands on, sense 2.1, 3.0 or aosp.
Sent from my TBolt using my f***king thumbs...
I've ran both. Currently using uber bamf. Have to say I am seeing no lag with bamf. Also seeing better battery life on bamf so far. To each their own. My advice would be to try both, you can't go wrong with either imo.
Sent from my ADR6400L using XDA App
Good advice above. All of the GB roms are now based on Chingy's leak. So its just a matter of preference. All the major players have pretty stable roms at this point. One thing that *seems* true is all bolts differ from one another. What works well for me maybe not so much for you. Try a few and see what you think. I'm back to running synergy for now. I just like the animations.

i think its all in what youre comfortable with. Ive tried both and i find myself going back to Chingys Gingeritis 3D Beta VII. There don't seem to be as many Mods for it though. Bamf seems like it has a lot more mods but at least for me it seemed to also have more bugs in it. Of course you could always do like I do. Search through the XDA forums and find tutorials on how to make your own mods.
The new Gingeritis ROMs really do have very impressive battery life. With minimal use, 3 days is plausible.

Skyraider 1.3 offers the best: battery life, performance, and customizability.

MIUI is my favorite so far.
How does Eternity compare to Bamf/Bamf Soab? It's hard to find clear comparisons with all of the variety out there.
ps. I'm actually still on the stock GB rom right now
Enternity here as well.
I believe because of all the Sense 3.5 elements, it's a hair slower than others.
Mine is OC'd to 1.2 with Lagfree Governer.
That being said, it's fine with me.
Rock solid. I've dabbled in every ROM out there.
BAMF does make a solid ROM. DroidTh3ory was making killer ROMs.
I have a backup of ProTekk's updated CM style ROM to go just because...
In my opinion, Eternity and BAMF SonOfAB ran very similar in speed/performance and reliability.
Patiently waiting working Data, Phone and sms/mms on Twisted/DroidVicious ICS build...
All the ROMs you mentioned are solid. But the right one for you is like asking you what kind of car/truck you drive.
Backup, try 'em...only way you'll know.
Using MIUI although the Son of a Bliss ROM was also one that kept me for a long time. I still feel CM7 has battery drain issues but maybe it's just me.
Eternity for me...
My only other choice would be BAMF SoaB because I want Sense 3.5 but I prefer Eternity and I really can't think of a reason why, it just works for me.
CM7 for me!
Love my 11/14 release of CM7. I have never had batt issues, maybe cause I cal the batt after each new rom?
CM7 seems to me the closest total Android experience I have found for my TB.
I'm looking forward to CM9!
Where can I download cm7 or soab

Hello Thunderbolt users, I need your help with something. I finally convinced my girlfriend to rooting her Thunderbolt, now I need to know what's the most recommended ROM for the Thunderbolt, it needs to be stable, no major bugs, what do you guys recommend?
Sent from my Dark Unicorn Resurrected v.2.5 using xda premium
It depends if she likes sense or not. I've been running eternity which is a sense 3.5 rom which runs excellent, stable and fast. And for aosp I've run thundershed cm7.2. Very quick and stable. Another cm7.2 based rom to check is the new rom zombie. I just loaded it up and so far is awesome. Has a nice red theme to it.

That 3.5 Rom drains crazier then a rat in outhouse. In ten minutes lost 10% then lost more about the same rate. This Rom needs to be fixed.as that is not stable. Seems as is stock os the best on the battery, and that is sad. Also your my Verizon app won't work which is another area of concern with limited data and shared plans we need to have an app that works. UNACCeptable people to have those two issues. My Verizon app is not.bloate as it gives vital account information.

I guess that's too hard for some people.
Dont listen to this idiot. He doesn't know how to set a rom up to save his life so don't pay attention to what he says. He has been banned twice already. Eternity gets better battery life than any rom i have tried. That includes stock which has horrible battery life.

You force me to agree with the troll, damn it! I have to qualify your statement with: 'which eternity'? I was very happy with 248 but when I updated to my battery life dropped down to 5 - 6 hours(!) with no change in the setup.
I'm getting over 14 hours of battery life with Gingeritis 3d by comparison and the phone is getting the same or more use.

Yes, r248 had better battery life then the latest test builds.
Why is that you ask?
As I stated in the Eternity thread, the newest build has a test kernel from Ziggy based on the latest OTA, as is the new test build Rom.
That kernel has an identified and known issue where the Performance and On Demand governor are locked at Max, no matter what you do.
The solution:
Change governor to Lag Free, or install Imos 6.2 kernel for Mr4 based roms, or the Bamf 3++ kernel.
Then apply your preferred CPU settings.
Battery use should return to as good or Better then r248.
The new kernel in the Rom is being reworked currently to resolve the issue.
So, the concern is with the kernel, more so then the Rom.
As far as Gingeritis having better battery life, I don't doubt that any Sense 3.5 Rom is going to be somewhat more draining on our devices/batteries.
Im talking about r248 but i still had decent battery on the test builds.

Your explanation is very much appreciated but......
I never thought I'd say this and it's subject to change from hour to hour...... I'm pretty much stuck on Gingeritis 3D, getting up in the AM, subjecting the phone to fairly heavy use and seeing 50% battery or more remaining when I go to bed is something I thought I'd never see after abandoning my BB for Android and.....
I seem to have lost my enthusiasm for messing with this phone for some reason? Every thing works now with Thunderstick BB or Eternity or Liquid or ???? and the only reason I change from one ROM to another is some minor annoyances and battery life so.... I think maybe I'll leave well enough alone.
I'm saving my flashing desires for when the devs get ICS with Sense 4.x, I'll don't think I'll flash ICS with Sense 3.x and I might just wait for Jellybean?
I have about forever left on my contract and then we'll see what's up.
So it changed as I said it might! Tried the Bamf kernel and battery life is back to normal.
Up until yesterday I had been running the Thunderstick GenII rom for the last 6-7 months (been running Thunderstick roms since last September..when Verizon bricked my phone with their update). It is a very stable Sense rom, and the only issue I had with it was my custom ring tones would sometimes get confused. The only reason I upgraded was to try something new (now running Thunderstick FullBlown) and I am half tempted to go back to the GenII just because it has some features I like that the FullBlown version does not.
Been running ThunderStick ROMS (FB, BB) for a good while... They just work on my phone. YMMV. Flashed SfKCM7 (AOSP) last nite and it runs real smooth... Gonna ride with this til I get the itch :beer:
