Which sense based rom yields the best battery life on the 3d? I'm thinking of WTSB.

At this point, any rom is best. You need to underclock your phone while the screen is off. Free app CPU Manager in the market, has all the OC performance options from CM.
I would assume freeza's would be beastly because its a bare minimum ROM.
Any senseless ROM with set CPU underclocked while the screens off is probably your best bet. Use the stock kernel too.

This! I am currently using the "Senseless ROM" and love the battery life, and pretty much everything else about it. As for a Sense ROM, I've used 2, and I found "Viper ROM" to be the best out of those two. If you're into Sense, Viperboy's ROM is great.
I've been trying the various roms, and so far I consistently am getting the best mix of performance/battery life from Viper's rom.
Viperrom is great on battery. Just dont flash any overclocking kernel and just let its built in Deamon script to control your cpu. You can use setcpu also but from what I'm reading daemon does a better job.
Im using viper right now also, damn good ROM.

At this point they are all pretty much the same... Just use SetCPU to underclock.
Its funny the phone runs perfectly fine underclocked in the 500's for normal use.
Vipersrom. Then follow this guide.
My phone has been used moderately for 9 hours and its @79%
Just wondering why you mentioned download launcher pro or adw? Does sense have different effect on battery life?

Hey guys. I was wondering what kernel and or ROM is the fastest availible at the moment.
I've been following the Android Developement pages here for a while, and I consider myself somewhat proficient at flashing firmware, etc.
I'm running CM7 on my Vibrant right now, and I was wanting to flash a different ROM. I considered going back to stock, but I wanted to get input on what is the fastest availible right now.
Also: what lagfixes and overclocking tools do you use? I am trying to make my Vibrant as fast as possible.
Any tips would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.
Malice is the fastest. Bullet kernel is the only one which can do 1.4Ghz so i am assuming its the fastest.
Agreed! kernel/ROM (imho) Bullet1.42Ghz/Malice2.3.1.
Another good kernel i like is Tigersbloodv3
Both those kernels OC well if ur phone can handle it.
If your phone doesn't play well with OC my personal favorite is CwK
Also, download Spare Parts from the market and set both animations to "fast"... this makes the ROMs appear much faster.
The real test is going back and forth between apps and the load time.
"fast" is kind of a floating point. As someone already mentioned, fast can sometimes be as easy as speeding up the animations.
I've had great luck with the SimplyGalaxy roms due to their ability to remain fast months after flashing.
Cool! Thanks for all the input, guys!
What about overclocking and lagfix utilities?
I heard there is an app or tool that you can overclock, but set to underclock when the phone is not in use...
Also, I was using one click lag fix on stock, is there anything like that I need for these ROMs, or does it come built in?
For over/under clocking, try setcpu from the market.
OCLF is nowhere near as good as Voodoo. Most ROMs that are available in the dev section come with a voodoo injected kernel.
Try vibrace overclocked. I guerentee you will love it!

Malice or Bi Winning W/ Bullet Kernel.
Then spare parts to adjust animation speeds. <3
I personally found MIUI to be the snappiest at 1.3 ghz.
I've been running custom ROMs on my vibrant since the day it became possible, and every time I install something other than one of Eugene's ROMs I come to regret it.
CM7 with a custom OC/UV kernel gets a 2100 Quadrant that translates to a really snappy UI and 3D faster than any 2.2 ROM.

I've tried different kernels and I have found that being overclocked has hurt my battery life. I think that this phone is snappy enough without being overclocked to 2ghz. Have people found the best battery life with the stock kernel? I'm still new to this...any help and opinions will be very appreciated!
So far I'm doing better than stock on the viperRom setup
Sent from my 3DVO with the XDA app
The problem is you're OC'd to 2 ghz. Most people have reported this as an overkill and it really isn't too stable, if you use set cpu and set up some profiles you will get great battery life. The processor in our phones is clocked at 1.5 to begin with, im currently on joel's rom with the remix kernel oc'd to 1.7 and getting amazing battery life, but i wasn't getting good battery life with the viper rom. I mean everyone's experience is different.
Just find something that works for you, tweaking to your liking is part of the fun with android man!

First things you should do is set a screen off profile. That will be awesome for your battery life. And you can get set cpu here for free on xda or get it in the market to support the dev
And we're here to help man!

So i dont know really know much about roms and kernels but i have alien and kholks kernel . which are the best of the best as of today ? Thanks
Purely subjective... different strokes for different folks.
I would venture to say though, that Alien is probably the most downloaded Atrix ROM right not... mostly b/c of the reputation Kenn had w/ GingerBlur, back on 2.2.2 (well deserved reputation I might add).
You can check my signature for my current setup.
i see , whats rom racer ?

Also, give the Aura ROM a looksee. This is my personal preference over Alien, and the dev is constantly active making improvements to it.
Aura ROM
Also................Romracer's CWM
why is aura good ?
I've moved from Alien to Aura recently. I think, it's more faster and including faux kernel at stock (I was using it on Alien).
On Aura you have 3 choises to install: no blur, only blur account and all blur.
I'm using the simpliest version with no blur apps. It's pretty fast .

Agreed. I'm using Aura 1.1.3 Debloat #7. It is crazy fast, light, and has no Moto crap. My regular use of the phone with other roms burned about 5% to 7% an hour. This Aura rom has burned only 3% in an hour. I need to test it further before I can come to a conclusion, but it's looking amazing to me already.

Hate to hear that!! As far as the Battery, are you using SetCPU for UV and or Over clocking? I have some profiles set up for the CPU and have set UV as well. My phone will get hot on occassion, but usually only if I am on it for a long streatch. I am using Swiftkey X as my keyboard and have had no issues.
There is no such thing as a Best ROM.
If you asking this question, answer would be, there is none. If you really want to find out which one is "GOOD FOR YOU?" you should try flashing all the ROMs. As such, so far there is very handful of ROMs are available anyways. Flashing all of them one by one would only be a matter of a week or so.
See what you like and stick to the one.
IMO this is the best way to answer your question.

Use Better Battery Stats and Greenify and they can all have decent battery life

If you're really concerned about battery life, you might consider going back to an ics rom. Jb seems to be a little rougher on the battery...the only way I've been able to get closer to the drain times I had with ics under the same usage is to flash a custom kernel, underclock and undervolt, and disable all non-essential background data. PAC man/komodo is the best combo I've found, but everyone's different...

Im running Viper and run 4 pages of widget, with power saver on during the day, I get 14 - 18 hours which is amazing to me since i had the original EVO4G that was a battery whore! I had MeanBean which was slightly less life but a good rom as well.

Just ignore any ROM that turns on both cores. That leaves out mean.
You can control the cores with trickster mod from play store. Or there are custom kernels for all of or roms for this phone now which give the user alot of control along with trickster or kernel tuner to control settings of kernel

MeanRom most definitely. best battery life. Meanbean is a little more drain-ey but that's just what you get when you run JB. I just flashed irocevo's CM10.1 so I can't really comment on its battery life yet but it seems to fair well.
