Hey guys! I'm excited to be here and I hope I get some good advice. (Who am I kidding? I KNOW I will!)
Anyway, I recently bought my HTC Amaze 4g for T-Mobile and I think I am in love. But I soon realized that I was getting about 2 hours of moderately heavy battery usage before it was giving me battery warnings. So I rooted, and installed Android Revolution HD 1.1.0 and my battery life has been much better. But, being the impatient newbie I am, I installed it before I read that it was a bit out of date. Basically, what I want is a ROM that is up-to-date, highly supported, has great battery life, is very fast, doesn't have a
sht load of bloatware, and is extremely stable. Hopefully this isn't asking to much from the developers here at XDA. So, any of you had this sort of experience with a ROM?
Thanks guys!
i say go with xboarders bulletproof rom, he will be updating it probably today, i was so impatient i just flashed w/e he has up now, and its amazing!, as for as battery life goes, i cant say anything as of yet. Only had the rom running for a few hours.

+1 thanks for the quick reply! I will look at bulletproof. Maybe you could get back to me when you know about battery?
My opinion is one of xboarders since they are based on the most recent firmware and are pretty stable.
If you want Sense use Bulletproof.
It has CRT animation and a fixed advanced power menu.
If you want AOSP-like (still technically Sense... just some HTC stuff removed like Rosie) use BeastMod.
Also with CRT and advanced power menu (i believe).
As far as I know he is the only developer that actually owns the device and is good at maintaining the support in his forums. It's difficult to support and keep up to date with a device that you don't own. That's probably why Android Revolution HD 1.1.0 is out of date.
That's just my opinion.

Thanks for the fast responses guys! You rock! I really am tempted to go download Bulletproof now! I might...
But is it really going to be updated today? I don't want to wait...
Lol I didn't want to wait either, but I was so tempted. I had to flash it. Totally worth it, I had wifi bug, instead of posting around like a noob I read and saw I had to flash boot that was provided with the rom, I say go for it. Its really stable and INSANELY SMOOTHLY

I just installed Bulletproof... Waiting for first boot.
Pretty good! But what's with the same battery? Do I just need to erase battery stats?
Ugh... now I can't use WiFi. I flashed the stock kernel. Twice. It worked the first time on Revolution. Hmmm...
Okay got it working. Just had to flash another kernel.
Try ics rom for amaze ..aka fourth bar sense rom.. its great on battery and boots faster..phones seems to be faster. Only thing ur prolly Gna miss is the HTC sense..everything else works great. Hope u like it . Also use easy kernel flasher from the forum to flash the kernel and ur not Gna have any issues with anything..
Good luck.

Hello xda!
ive just upgraded from the evo shift to a evo 3d i unlocked the hboot 1.5
i know that i have to use fastboot to flash roms/kernels
im just wondering what everyones best setup is?im looking for something with good battery life and alot of tweaks.I dont really really care for eye candy or themes lol they would be nice but i noticed the themed roms ive tried have bad battery drain.ive tried pretty all of the recent ones on xda but im wondering if there are any older ones or something that are stable and have tweaks with good battery life?
let me know what you guys use as a everyday rom
im tired off always flashing new roms lol
Scrosler's CleanRom if you like your stock rom, but want a few enhancements, cleaned up, and much better battery life.
Do what I did, flash all of em and find ure fav

ViperRom by far. Super fast, stable, and smooth and has every mod you could want out of a sense rom minus beats. (but who really cares)
I prefer Virus' "infectedROM Eternity™" best one I've used so far... (love Cyanogenmod, too)
Deck's 1.0 for compatibility and battery life. Synergy for blazing speed and near stock feel.

lol which version of viper rom?and whats a good kernel to go with it?
i tried synergy but it went from 58% too 34% WHILE I WAS ASLEEP this is what i meant ive tried alot of roms and most of them dont sleep!!!
oh yeah and i know what u mean about the beats lol its just a little eq u need
I've tested almost all of them, and I'd have to recommend either InfectedROM Eternity or Warm TwoPointThree. Those two offer the best stability and speed without sacrificing battery life.
Or do like others have and spend some time testing all of them.

No one can tell you because we all have our own personal preferences. All you could do is test them out. ROMs are like food to me. I can't tell you what you will like because it taste good to me.

How did you unlock the hboot 1.50 without HTC method? I don't want them knowing I'm unlocking my device.
Sent from my 3vo
you can't go wrong with either warm 2.3, eternity, or clean rom. I jump between those 3 roms. if you are looking to overclock I suggest mwalt2's bcblend however I personally run with the stock kernal as my daily. my phone is the in house dj at my work so run pandora all day long connected to wifi. I average between 12-16 hours of battery.

e3d mirroring
does anyone knows if the infected rom support hdmi mirroring
i been trying to find the rite combo for 3 months.. speed and good battery life.. i swear i have flashed every rom every kernel 10 times over!! lol.. i flashed infected rom eternity with infected anthrax kernel.. witch i have flashed meny times befor but this times diff my phone is running super smooth.. im geting bangin benchmark scores and my battery is good so far.. i wounder why it was never like this befor?? hope it stays like this..
I hope so too.
*Refers to sig*
This is what I was saying the whole time I was here lol. Eternity coupled up with any of the Anthrax kernels were THE best way for performance and battery life. Glad to know people are catching on though. I could never fully go back to other ROMs after this.
cool story bro
How stable and smooth is Eternity?
I'm loving Viper rom with chads kernels
Yea, tell me about it.
spook to soon
i just i spook to soon.. i just tryed to use the camera and it all messed up?? its mad fuzzy.. its the eternityr130 rom.. has this happen to anyone else?? i hope i can find a fix cause im loving my setup rite now other than my camera not working..
use stock kernel that comes with r130, problem solved
Latest Fresh ROM has incredible battery life, over 14 hours and still over 50%, plus it's very fast and smooth. Plus it's not buggy and doesn't have a stupid name or ugly theme!
Everyone has found the right combination with their own choice of ROMs.

Fresh rom is has the best battery life haven't had mine on charger. It has been 3 days on the last charge only few secs on I had it connected to the computer was to take some screen shots using ddms.bat tool...
I use it on the net and so on youtube...
I just wanna get a theme in for it and I would be happy...
Chad's older kernels are built for the older base. So his kernel with 2.17 will have issues. Update to his r14 test kernel. Camera works, although there is no preview. It still takes pics fine though.
He'll be releasing r15 in a few days that fixes everything. He currently has the only non-stock kernel for 2.17 that doesn't ha e a completely jacked up camera.
Can't get it on XDA because they hate bonafide devs now or something stupid like that. Check infectedrom.com

I will agree. My daily rom is MeanROM but I've tried them all and I think they're pretty much all the same. Only thing that's separating them are tweaks, they definitely all look the same. From what I hear the VenomRom will be the one that separates itself from the rest, when it gets released.

I've tried Mean rom and Viper. Both excellent roms but I chose to stick with Viper as my daily driver for now. It just feels a bit more familiar to me since that's all I used on my 3D.

+1 with mean rom for sure. its got by far the most support and updates as of now. but when the viper rom comes out whenever that may be is up in the air but when it does i think i will be the best. go to the one x page and check it out....but mean all the way right now without a doubt!!!!

I had ARHD 6.6.7 previously. It was a stock experience with nothing new. Also my battery was terrible on it. Yesterday I flashed ViperS 1.0.1... And I must say that it's by far the best rom I have every seen and used. It's packed with so much goodies! So much customization options that you'll never get bored. And on top of that, it's also very fast. The venom hub and tweaks app is revolutionary.
So far, the battery is also doing great.

if u like the customizing tweaks u find in AOSP roms like cm9 and aokp then u should look forward to charmeleon rom, it will be getting a major update in the coming days
using the AOKP right now. dont really like any of the sense options there are right now. and i like the AOSP lockscreen too much. haha. waiting for that chameleon rom guy above was talking about. hopefully we can get a good CM9 Port going.

nah man, I am just a tester and flasher for my local peeps.
Dude you should try this rom. they've made this rom very light and now i usually have around 175 - 220mb FREE.
just 3 bugs so far.. which i have already reported on day one.
1- Facebook Calender Sync doesn't work.
2- Gallery and Music app fails to load and search files. ( most of the time ) its a pain though :x
3- No Predictive Text in the keyboard. ( you'll have to use the ****ty SwiftKey for that.)
I've flashed Mean rom... All I noticed was 2% drops in battery every few minutes.. And it looked like the same stock ics layout
What's so special about It
We need roms that have boot animations and tweaked batt life roms that tweak the ui something extra ordinary
Stock suits me for now until I see a tricked out rom one that physically just looks different to the eyes

Depends on if you like sense or de-sensed roms.
For sense I like CONROM and the OTA ICS plus rom from micromod777.
For de-sensed I like both of Neo's roms (fast as hell) or CONROM with the desense option in aroma installer.

For some reason I experienced a lot of lagginess with neos roms although I liked them a lot so I switched back to ViperRez I know benchmarks mean nothing but I couldn't break 5000 with neomax (antutu) and on viperrez I get a constant 6800 :what:

Big fan of Neo's latest Adrenaline here, including battery life, it also appears smoother than 1.6 and below but it does appear to be more sluggish than Venom. Having said that however my battery life with the Venom rom was horrible and my phone heated up a lot..never have the latter issue with Neo's rom or Nils' Business Sense 3.6 v5.7 rom for that matter (highly recommend giving that a shot too)
I highly recommend using ElipticRez by hawknest

About 2 weeks ago I installed Ecliptic Rez V9 on our two Rezounds and I agree wholeheartedly with it being rock solid. It has a lot of features to keep me entertained for quite awhile.

In my humble opinion, if your talking about the most features it would be the Charmaleon ROM, your able to theme quite a few things because of a tweak add-on he has in the rom. It's on the third page of ROM developement.

Haha just a little welcome humor. ViperROM is pretty customizable.

I'll second ViperRom or MeanROM, if you're looking at ICS ROM's. With JB ROM's the verdict is still out, but Viper's base JB ROM works pretty well, as does MeanBean (the ROM I'm currently running). Not to say these are by any means the best, just a handful of the few I've tried since coming to the EVO LTE. It's all subjective, really, since what's best for one user may not be best for another.

Cool. I think I tried it in the beginning before I started this new job. That was back over the summer though. I'm sure it's probably different. I'll add it to the to do list. Thanks.

Thanks for the input. I want to stick with a JB ROM but I travel so much with my job to places with horrible reception or Hotels with no wi-fi and then I get fc's or I start to loose certain functions and I have to go back to an older ROM. I think I'm going to designate a memory card to keep a few good ROMs on when I travel to nip it. I haven't tried Viper's base. I think that'll be my next ROM.

I'll put a third vote in for the Mean series. I've tried MIUI and CM10 recently, but I always end up coming back to the beauty of Sense. The dev on MeanRom and MeanBean is very active and has made it very simple to update to his newest version with an OTA updater.
That said, I am currently checking out the rEVOLTEd rom, with JB. I was particularly interested in how the dev used the AOSP vanilla version of Recent Apps switcher rather than the Sense version... The camcorder is not currently working, but it should be fixed in the next version. Other than that, it seems to be running very well.
Overall, there really are some great options out there for JB and ICS Roms.
meanbean is where its at!!

I've tried revolted. Good rom but I had trouble with my GPS signal and I use navigation often for my job. I've seen Mean ROM a lot so I'm downloading Mean Bean and Vipers JB ROM. Thanks for your input.
Thanks
Just want to say thanks to everyone who gave their opinions and input in this thread. I flashed Mean Bean and loved it. Problem was I flashed it wrong. Didn't upgrade to 3.15 firmware first. In the process of trying to do that I bricked, fixed, unlocked/ unrooted, upgraded, unlocked, rooted, and finally reflashed Mean Bean. I haven't had this much fun in a long time. I've been so use to dropping roms on a sd and flashing I forgot one of the most important things about XDA. READ Instructions before flashing new roms. Thanks again to everyone who commented and gave advice. You helped me find exactly what I was looking for.

You Sir are absolutely correct. My favorite so far.
I tried both meanbean and stock w/ goodies and I really like the fluidity of meanbean. However, the battery life seemed like it was better on stock w/ goodies. I also used rom cleaner w/ the no-sense option on both of the roms so i'm not sure if that contributed to better speed or battery life. I decided to stick w/ meanbean! no fc or errors for me and everythings been running great!

Also on superjelly
I've been running Meanbean for quite sometime now and really like it but I switched today to super jelly and I think I'm liking this rom a little better seems a bit quicker and better battery for me
