Rom and Kernal are rock solid. No reboots or weird stuff at all. It has Sense removed. That is what saves a lot of battery. Any Amaze running Faux's Kernel will have a lot better battery life anyway. Sense or not.

Energy ROM 3.10.12 release with the modified stock kernel. By far the most stable ROM also, which your friend will appreciate

That maybe but I like sense being gone. That battery life is good for me. I had nothing but trouble with wifi on energy. Trust I had the right kernel all that. Great for eye candy though.
Really fauxs kernel makes the biggest difference at least in my experience.
I am running energy right now and it is giving me the best battery life so far with the stock kernel and some profiles set with setCPU. And capromalpha is running a close second, I have tried just about all the available ROM's and I'm settling on energy, even though I don't like sense that much the theme makes it more bearable + I have finally been able to get through a day without needing to charge my battery halfway through.
Now I just sit and wait for CM9 or a stable AOSP.
My 2 cents.

And on the newest release, I noticed when I'm not using my phone, my battery doesn't budge. It was @ 90% when I went out the other night. 3 hours later, I checked and it was at 89%
Sent from my HTC_Amaze_4G using xda premium
I also settled on Energy 031012 w/Stock Kernel. I use my phone A LOT and it seems to be the best route for me. My battery lives vary depending on what im doing so its not really consistant. But if I hardly use it it last a good 24hrs+
I just started messing with System Tuner. So hopefully stupid apps, like Maps Friend Finder, stops running in the background.

Imho, Energy is the most stable that we have. You can usually tell by the issues (or lack there of) listed in the thread... And if you notice NRGZ thread stays pretty off-topic because there's nothing to report... I did like BP2.5 though, and will call it a close second. I prefer the themeing and battery of energy myself

Sent from my HTC Amaze 4G using XDA
installed android revolution HD, as the link for energyrom wasn't working(md5sum did not match).
So based on recommendations in this thread I switched to Energy ROM (though not a huge fan of Sense). So far the battery seems to be significantly better even comparing to CapRomAlpha.
But everybody in this thread also implied that the Energy is the most stable custom ROM for Amaze. Yet I can not get WiFi or bluetooth working - it does not turn on (says "error" for Wifi and bluetooth just does not turn on). If battery life keeps going like this I definitely want to stick with this ROM but lack of working Wifi and BT is a serious problem.
Any word of advise or recomendation would be greatly appreciated....
Thanks.
Go to Energy Rom thread post #4 and download the stock kernel flasher.
Unzip the folder to your desktop and open the unzipped folder. Plug in your device, charge only, and turn on usb debugging via settings>applications>development. Then run the flash.bat batch file from unzipped folder and you're done
nav200, thanks for your response.
I was just about to post the "never mind" message as I found the same information myself. But thanks anyway. Totally makes sense that kernel did not flash in recovery with the ROM coming from a stock and CapRomAlpha roms.
I am really intrigued right now. I was already getting a better battery life but that was even with the wrong kernel and therefore no OC daemon in play. It should be even better now. I am recharging my battery to 100% now and will wipe the battery stats to start over. Will post with results later.

These are the only two that I have flashed thus far and I have been able to try these out for about three days each now and haven't noticed anything very different between the two... The phone is still really fast regardless of which I have installed and the battery life is disappointing (~ 9-10 hours) compared to stock (~13-16 hours). I think I will flash something else and maybe come back to these two at some point to see if anything has improved.

Ummm, try Showdown 1.0.
I like viper over synergy, more stability and I like his oc daemon script. Showdown is nice and very esthetically pleasing and its snappy but it lacks full stability Imo as well. Hope that helps.
So far every rom has given me around 10 hours of battery with moderate use if I don't play stuff like order and chaos all day.

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.

I had it set at auto brightness the entire time. I'm not willing to give up the best part of the phone. I was using my data connection a lot (3G and Wifi) for XDA app, browse web pages, downloading podcasts, updating apps. I never thought I'd see 7 hours of screen time either. This is still shocking to me. It's not like I put my phone on lockdown. I used it a lot.
When I took my phone out of the box, I got 2-3 hours screen time, I rooted and monitored/tweaked settings and I got 4 hours of screen time.
Then I flashed this ROM and something magical happened. Don't know what, but I am happy. The phone sleeps well when the screen is off. The only thing I really did of any note was allow wifi to sleep when not plugged in.
Now I have to see if it was a fluke.
now i dont know whether i should switch to the updated FRESH ROM or stay with flex's. do u guys know which ROM has better battery life?

We have great devs across the board for the Rezound and each offers something unique and cool for their ROMs. I would say try several and figure out what works best for you. I have used ViperRez, Nils Business Sense, Newt's, Neo's AOKP and NeoMax, Vigor, and Ineffabillis (current). I like them all and find certain aspects of each appeal to me. S-off opens a whole new door of possibilities. Have fun and enjoy the hunt.

I'd vote for either of Nils' ROMs. I'm running his Sense 4 ROM right now and the only bug I've found is that every now and then Facebook authentication fails and I have to log in again. That happens every other week or so. Battery life is really good, but I think all Sense 4 ROMS are pretty good on battery.

I have tried ClearRom4.5 and used it for a while, then I tried ViperRez1.0.3, Newts, and currently I am using Vigor360.
Honestly, if the camera will be stable in the ViperRez1.0.3, I would be still using it. So far, it is the ROM that gave me better battery life compared with others and it is very smooth imo.
I installed Newts and I was astonished with all the things loaded in there. Great ROM. Ubber stable. The camera is fast and didn't see any issues. Everything works in there. My only complain was that compared with other ICS ROMs it seems that it lags a bit for me and the battery drains faster than any other ROM I tried.
Because how stable is this ROM, I tried a couple of Kernels to see if I could get the same smoothness that I got with previous ICS ROMS. No luck!!
I just installed Vigor360 about a week ago and it is great too. Battery consumption is way better than Newts but less better than ViperRez. But the ROM is flawless and smooth. Probably same or better than ViperRez.
Benchmark in Quadrant Standard with all 4 different ROMS (with their original Kernels) gave me the average of:
- CleanRom4.5 **3100
- ViperRez 1.0.3 ** 3600
- Newts ** 2900
- Vigor360 **3100
Now, if we can have an ICS ROM that is stable as Newts, with the battery life of ViperRez and the smoothness of Vigor360, then we will have a winner.
If you don't need Sense, try Miui. The UI is very clean and smooth.
+1 for ViperRez. Stable, fast, and great battery life. Been using it since the end of July, & haven't looked back. Sense 4 is awesome. Now using it with DSB's kernel, which also works great. Camera and camcorder both working fine. Only "issue", if you want to call it that, is the data arrows not working, but you will see that with any of the Sense 4 ROMs, and to me, it is a non-issue. Awesome.
Oh, also, the Kindle app force closes, which has been reported, but again, no big deal to me, because I have my Nexus 7 for that, LOL.
Good luck, and enjoy.

Thank ya'll for all the replies. I'm kind of afraid to do the s-off thing right now, so i'm sticking with just unlocking and roming. So far the only one I've tried is Neo's Rage1.2 and its pretty awesome. When the screen is off it barely has battery drain at all. I'm interested in trying viperrez, but I think i read that he is about to release an update soon so I'll probably wait until it comes out. But an example of the battery life of rage1.2: I have the standard battery, its been off charge for 16h 47 min, with 1h 1 min screen on time and i'm sitting at 37% battery. Granted a lot of that time was with data off when i wasn't using it, but when I had the screen on data was on. Just figured I would throw that out there for anyone interested.
You've just got to try the ROMs man. I'm not trying to be a jerk, but there are one thousand threads about "best" ROMS, and each is equally useless. Your device, tastes, and desires are going to determine which ROMS are most successful for your setup. I can almost guarantee that if you flash ANY rom in the development thread that it's going to be great. Just a heads up, it's best to refrain from discussing "best" ROMS. It just pisses devs off.

I hope that it didn't offend anyone. I was just wondering what people that are using the ROMS thought about which one would be good for me based on what I was needing. Because I know some ROMS will be great, but not have as great of battery life as another ROM that is just as awesome. I like getting suggestions, and seeing what people like about which ROM. I will keep what you said in mind, and I really appreciate you letting me know that.
In your opinion , which rom is the best you've ever experienced on the HTC amaze ?
By best I mean; smoothness, battery life, less amount of problems , looks
so basically I'm asking which your favorite rom is
Fourth Bar Infusion was to me the best rom i've seen for the Amaze so far.. the only issue i had with it was that the signal bars were broken
CM10, followed closely by SpeedRom 7.8 and Fourth Bar Infusion.
Until CM10 is finished - NRG Stock 8/1 - EVERYTHING works, and battery life is amazing.

Heard and keep hearing a lot of positive things about the Energy ROM and so I just flashed NRGZ's ROM right now for the first time :laugh:
What kernel do you recommend with it?

Personally, I use Faux. I tried going back to Stock, but ran into some issues with it very rapidly depleting my battery.
Nightmare Sense 4.. Best Battery Life.. only bad things is there are still issues with Wifi Tether and Bluetooth..

Same here. Cm10 is awesome, but nth stock look is perfect functionality wise. Too bad nrg doesn't make a sense 4.1 stock look Rom with his energy tweaks.

Honestly, even if he did, i'd be a little against using it. Nothing against NRG, or course, but last time I checked no Sense 4.X Roms or Phones have WiFi calling. I love my WiFi calling, and after Hurricane Sandy came barreling over head taking my closest tower down for days... I don't wanna give up that option.
Best 3.6 based Rom was speed Rom. Cm10 is good on battery life for me but I didn't find it as smooth as sense 4. Teamvipers sense 4.1 Rom (one posted by Leo and later thread was closed for whatever reason) has been the best Rom for me thus far. Only downside is no working Bluetooth but it's a fair trade off for 4 hours+ screen on time I will post a couple screen shots of my current run and it's buttery smooth just posted screen shots of today's usage with 44% left to go and I play a lot of temple run (hence the screen on time is high and browse via wifi all the time so it's constantly on)

That's amazing battery life , I would be lucky to have 2 hr 30 min of the screen on and still have 1 % left in the battery
Honestly my fav rom ive ever made is still speed rom

I agree if people want everything working with decent battery life (not necessarily the best but to gain something you must lose something and if it's worth the sacrifice go for it) the amaze on the Htc stock Rom was a beast on it's own what always irked me about this device was it's crappy battery life compared to my Nexus one. Hence I have decided to sacrifice Bluetooth capability for basically never ending battery life on the team vipers Rom I have settled down on. However I do flash anything new to keep my device funky and fresh I still have yet to try your bulletproof reloaded sense 4.1 Rom eclipse, maybe I will flash it tonight and see if I can get even better battery life

The best Rom is the most stable Rom I've used, it's also one that's not being developed anymore "RMS Quicksense v7.0". It's clean and I've never had a freeze or error with it.
fourth bar infusion is pretty awsome and is my favorite by far

That's me second favorite , the only thing that is keeping it from first is how you have to unlock to see the person who's calling you
How are you guys getting good battery life on Energy Stock? With 23B6 Kernel...I could LOOK at the phone and the battery would drain.
My battery life with Nightmare Sense 4, i never had good battery with ASOP, AOKP, and CM10.

EDIT: I order and Anker battery today hoping for a better battery life.. with AOKP, ASOP and CM10

I see but the weird thing was that when I flashed team nightmare sense 4.1 I got horrendous battery life so I ended up going back to speed rom (at that time cm10 wasn't fully functional) do you guys plan on continuing work on that rom? Because Leo version seemed to to have everything buttery with tremendous battery life. Is kanging (sorry don't know proper term) not allowed? Aren't there a lot of roms that are kanged? Guess I am confused...
