New to the razor...which rom is the most stable and has the greatest battery? This is a opinion poll, thanks

Ive only ran eclipse 1.3. It seems to be a little better than stock in terms of battery life. Ive read MIUI and gummy do provide some good battery life.
Im running eclipse 1.3, and my battery drains pritty fast. I have asked the same question. Everyone says eclipse is good.
You can also try Black Widow Rom

You can only go so far with rom's since all roms are running off of the motorola stock kernel. Best bet is to get any rom and then freeze all the bloat you don't need. Then get a copy of SetCPU and manually set profiles using the hotplug governor to underclock the cpu when not in use or under certain conditions. Also make sure none of your apps are keeping the phone awake and preventing it from going to deep sleep mode.
I found running Easy Battery Saver on General Mode to be highly effective and I'm stock and unrooted. I can easily hit 12 hours without a charge.

Black Widow ROM
Was last updated 4/28/2012
When I ran this on my OG RAZR I got around 16-19 hours of battery with moderate usage.

I can confirm that! Black Widow has the greatest battery lifetime I've ever seen on Razr! But I got more than 19 hours usually, and that with more than just moderate usage!
Someone tell me the rom epsilon v4 is a good option to save battery, but i installed and had no satisfatory results. =/
in all reality they are all good on battery, BUT I am running arctic v2.2 on .215 update leak and arctic has the highest ranking benchmarks of any other roms. it is very good on my battery as of now and I am overclocked at 1350mhz, but i dont run it at that always usually 1000mhz to save more battery. my benchmark score on this rom was 3500 which is the best I got out of eclipse and arctic. those are the 2 top leading roms right now when it comes to being completely debloated and having good battery life/functionality

All - whats the best kernel for battery life/performance ratio?
Currently using faux 1.6 kernel - superfast but battery drains real quick - whats everyone else using?
I was on the stock kernel for awhile with Ken's Alien ROM. Battery life wasn't great, then switched to Faux's kernel. Didn't notice much of an improvement. Im trying out Kholk's kernel, which has gotten good reviews for battery life. This is my first full charge on it, so we'll see. Im currently at 85% after about 3 hours of moderate to heavy usage.

From my experience edgans is best

any more replies folks? Hows Kholkds Kernel - what radio are you using?

As the thread title states, I'm looking for a ROM with good battery life, I'm currently using CleanROM ICSE 3.7, and it's has okay battery life, but I think it could be better. Any suggestions?
Nils' Business ICS 3.4 has amazing battery life.
I'd start there. I try pretty much any ROM that looks interesting, but I find I always come back to Nils. His last 2 updates have focused on improved battery life, and they really do bring it.

what kind of results you get? usually massively debloated like CR dev edit does it for me....less system apps sucking on cpu
use the "thanks" if I helped you at all
In my (very) limited experience, the kernel has far more affect on battery life than the ROM. Been using CleanRom 4.3 with the stock kernel, battery life is quite good compared to my GNex which I ditched after 5 days
RezROM 3.3 and the newest CleanROM Developer Edition have done the best for me, also check out the Kang Tapped Edition of CleanROM DE, same thing basically with some tweaks, it's my daily driver currently.
Cleanrom DE (nonsense) has been on my Rezound for a day, and its yielding pretty decent results. Got about 7 to 8 hours of moderate use yesterday (I work at Target Mobile - use it for work/messing around with it). I text back and forth consistently, as well as taking multiple calls - one yesterday up to an hour long. I left work with a 17%, when I walked in with 89%. LTE on, auto-brightness. I also am using ROM Toolbox to change clock speeds, I have profiles for multiple scenarios - that helps battery life as well. The only thing I had off was autosync, I'll open up FB or Gmail to update. Oh and I played music in the car both to and from work (20 minutes each way - regular music player).
I obviously want a little more time with it, but from when I had cleanrom (with sense) it seemed cut in half (sense is pretty and all, but she just eats your battery - with flashy graphics and auto updating everything).
bamf 2.1 ics gr8 battery...16 hrs
moderate use
awesome rom

I'm thinking about buying an Atrix and putting an ICS rom on it.
For those of you who have an Atrix with ICS, what sort of battery life are you getting? Also, let me know what Rom you're using?
JOYOS V3 Excellent battery life

CM9 & AOKP both have excellent battery life.
Currently on AOKP 37a.

So in terms of hours, how many many are you guys looking at?
These are guesstimates and not hard numbers since I dont actively keep track, but in my experience its been on par with Gingerbread. About 5 hours continuous use with the screen on, lasts between 1 and 3 days depending on how heavily its used.
I haven't been using stock ROMs for a while, and am now currently on AOKP JB, which is awesome. But I've recently had the need to be out of the house for an extended period of time, and i really need a ROM with good battery life.
So quick question, which GSM (or CDMA with GSM-patch) ROM gives the best battery life? I'm more inclined to think stock, and I've read that 676.226.3.en.EU gives really decent battery life. Or is there a better alternative?

Ive been using the simplex rom it has overclock and underclock scripts built in I have been on it for a few days and got 5hrs of screen on and 19hrs of power overclocked with 25% battery still left. Currently I am running underclocked to 1.0 GHZ to see how long Battery will last and sitting at 13hrs on battery and 4.5hrs screen on time and have 44% battery I think I'm doing well!!! No bugs yet either!!
SimpleX is for CDMA right? My bad, I should have specified that I was using a GSM phone.

i'm using magicmod rom, coupled with tasker to turn on 3g only when using data intensive apps like browser,youtube etc.. the rest of the time i have data enabled but 2g, and the battery only goes down about 2-3% a night, that's about 2-3% for 8 hours..
I ve tried jesters, bamf and almost all the ICS leaks. Currently on nusense everything is stable Gps, tethering, just the battery life is really bad on all. as good as when I had SHIFTSENSE.GB. I am willing to go back to gingerbread.

From what I understand ICS builds are all the new drivers for the CPU/GPU. What this means is that the gingerbread ROMs would only allow the CPU to work during normal browsing and it would enable the GPU for games this is why we can undervolt the phone so much in gingerbread because it does not use the GPU and the CPU simultaneously. As you can imagine if you enable the CPU/GPU to work simultaneously it will then drain the battery much faster than before. All in all it is based on your usage however there is a big difference between gingerbread and ICS. I would only suggest using ICS if your phone is not your current phone. When I upgrade I plan to keep my phone for browsing only and I will be upgrading to an ICS build given everything works. Also if you want better battery life and you have not upgraded to the resound battery go get one online or at a Verizon store it fits perfectly in our phone and gives much more battery life
