I have a rooted p500 on stock 2.3.3 gingerbread. I have installed franco's .35 kernel. I also want to install a basic Rom for my device in terms of battery and speed. I want a custom status bar as the stock gingerbread one is pathetic. That mainly all I care about for style, although more features would be good. What rom do you suggest for good battery and speed? I heard Oxygen rom and NightlyFourE are good but which one would you reccomend for me? Or is there another rom i dont know about? And what are these roms compared to stock battery and speed? THANKS IN ADVANCE. And im sorry if this has been posted before. I looked and couldnt find anything.

Nothing really different about nightlyfoure.its just another perfectpeso rom with dofferent tweaks...oxygen is good for performance. Im using blackbird v1.2-beta1 with moderate usage and i have 18 hours with 69% left..its performance is adequate

Okay thanks. I am leaning towards Oxygen because it is said to have good batter and speed. Does anyone know if "good" means better then stock gingerbread? I want to know Oxygen vs. Stock speed and battery.

Yes! Oxygen is definitely much better. Been using oxygen for more than a month and I can't be bothered to switch to another one

Alright thanks. I have 2 questions: on average how many hour of battery life do you get with oxygen? And what kernal is best for it? I have franco's .35 but i heard people talking about franco 4? Is 4 different and better?

Franco "4" is just a name, it's .35 kernel. For battery life, we can just guarantee it's better than stock, obviously, no need to ask, or just stay in stock.
Okay sounds good. Final question: can i install Go launcher ex with Oxygen installed so I can have basically the same look I have now but with more speed and battery? I want more customization too so can I install custom launcher? Thanks

Stock ROM.
Hey, I only got the phone on Sunday. For now, the stock ROM and the minimal tweaks I made (JIT, touchscreen fix, ondemand underclock) are quite enough.
CM7/GB for performance, any other froyo rom for battery. It doesn't matter how many tweaks/kernel you apply to froyo, it will still be buggy with performance and you will keep flashing new tweaks/kernels. lol
I can only agree with mansirawat
CM7 rocks (even in draining battery )
For dayly use I use custom Froyo rom, for this moment it's LOL 1.4.2 with some of francofrancisco tweaks and kernel.
Devoid.francov5, franco.kernel v11 with darktremors apps2sd
The best rom for you and your phone is, without a question, the stock rom. It is most stable, safe and will always be up to date. The best custom rom in my opinion is CM7, but there are several available and most of them are good.
Mik's CM7. It's awesome.
Im using Nessy for 2 days now and its my first custom rom installed, I cant say its the best since i hadnt tried other roms, but so far im pretty satisfied with its performance. the default cpu clock is 729mhz max and I change it to 600mhz(stock) and the result is that battery consumption is now as good as the stock rom but with a little boost in performance and no bloatwares equals to increase in memory.
CM 7 + franco v19.2
I personally prefer CM7 By mik + fk

Ok so I'm new to the vibrant and I've been having some real crappy battery life. After like 2 hours of medium use on cm7 my battery is at 50%. When I was using my g2 I'd get like 8 hours of medium use running cm7 oc'ed 1.3ghz. But I have my vibrant at 1.2ghz and its horrible, same @ 1ghz. Is there any fix for this or should I start checking out some extended batteries?

CM7 isnt going to be the best battery anyway
flash a different kernel (dont know which iv never been on CM7) or go back to a 2.2 rom
i was using glitch hl kernel. and i dont get why i would go back to a froyo rom. froyo is outdated. but cm7 always had good battery life on my g2 so i dont get how a bigger battery would ause lower battery life.
Try bali kernel and callibrate ur battery with an app from the market u should see a difference

If htc released the source for the g2's newest android version, you'd notice a decent difference between the two phones. We're still missing some key drivers and an official leak.

This post looks complicated but it was pretty simple.
You mentioned not wanting to spend money, so I will warn you, it involves purchasing two apps.

This is incase you want to find out exactly why your battery life is crap and fix it, rather than living with it and buying cheap extra batteries (which is just as fine a solution).
Any suggestions for a stable rom and kernel for battery life? I need everything to work so probably need to stick with gingerbread. Thanks!!
Stock EH03. I've done a decent amount of reading about this topic and from what I understand RFS (default galaxy s file system, versus ext4 or mtd) consumes the least amount of power. Also, performance in EH03 is noticeably improved compared to the Froyo or Eclair builds on my device. Combined with full functionality I'd say its your best bet, unless you want to buy an extended battery.

If you didn't have to stick with gingerbread a dj05 ROM is far superior in battery life imho..

It's a little lower than the most ROMs but it can hold 2-3 days, depends how you use it. And i can't relly tell you cuz i am using my phone A LOT (games, testing apps, wi-fi) so its always on performance 787Mhz and for me at the end of the day its like on 20-30%
best
CYANOGEN MOD 9 it actually makes my friends jealous
Perfectpeso 2.2 because its rly very fast and smoth.
LEWA, cuz I don't really care about performance. Only looks is what matters to me. I tried to go to other rom after using it but all other ROMs looks kinda not so good. Tried using cm9 but waiting for stable version. And waiting a battery fix for MIUI also.
Sent from my LG-P500 using XDA
Oxygen 2.6 and #void forever. Yes, #void it might be old, but is great.
Both ROMS are fast and almost bugfree.
Also, I like OpenOptimus, not so fast, but very stable and without bugs at all.

every latest ROM will give you almost the same battery backup, the difference could only be upto 3-5% so, in my opinion, you can use any ROM but you should be smart enough to use your phone properly, If you are gaming all the time, then your battery won't last more than a few hrs..
I would recommend hephappy's prereleases, with data and sync only through 2G and light use - reduced backlight, couple of SMS, few calls, short web browsing (check twitter, find some public transport connection,...) - i got nearly three days of battery life.
But when you are on 3G, heavily browsing or playing games all the time you can't expect any rom to last more than day (to be more specific from morning to evening).

True I have same battery drain (~2% per night) on all ROMs... people with lots of apps or data on at all times should NEVER give an opinion on battery life... you may get a signal from an app, randomly, and cause system to be totally random on battery...
