I was just wondering based on everyone's experience (especially those who have tried many different ROMs). Can you also mention how many ROMs you've tried?
I used to use stock ICS with all T-Mo bloatware and battery life is just horrible. Now, that I've rooted and use Fast Amaze ROM without all the bloatware and I can see a much better battery life. So, I am just wondering what would be the ROM you'd recommend that has the best battery life...
Thank you for the helps
Trial and error.

Ditto to Glacier guy, with eggydrums' great battery life on Energy, I get the worst battery life with that rom and great battery life on ARHD.

I say make your own "rom". Learn what it is that devs do, use trial and error to figure out what tweaks make a real difference(read a roms tweaks, do research into how to make those changes).. remove bloat, modify the build.prop.. the best rom is the one you build yourself. And you learn a lot more too.
But that is just my opinion.

saurom wins best battery in my books
i went on a craze testing different roms specifically for battery life. the best battery i got was using saurom gb rom. 1.5 days!! i would say i was aiming for light/moderate usage at the time.
i got decent usage on seraphim ics rom, more on the heavy usage side when i was testing this rom. little over 12hrs. i love it graphically and how smooth ics is, but since im on my phone alot saurom suited my power taste better.
to save as much battery as possible, my config:
- antutu battery saver app
- brightness always at a minimum
- vibrate always off, silent at office, sound only everywhere else
- screen filter app in the dark
- wifi off (test purposes, its a given u'll save more when on wifi)
- auto sync off (im always on it so refreshing apps i need on the fly was good enough, i dont always need to know who emails or facebooks me every sec)

I used incredicontrol to undervolt everything by 50 or 75 in incredicontrol. Using stock freqs, and ondemand governor. And used danuntzz's tool to do most of the desensing/debloating.

I also used Romtoolbox's auto start manager to keep things from opening in the background, it's probably the most helpful app I've used. Thanks next I just need the mugen 4000mAh so I'd only need to charge it on the weekends, but that thing is really expensive for a battery.

I need to figure out what's wrong with mine. I'm getting results like this with the extended VZ battery. I have to keep it plugged in all the time. Even with 4G disabled (3G still on), no wifi, no bluetooth; most days it will be dead in 8-10 hours.
Currently running 5/1 leak radios (RUU'd last week), running BAMF ICS 2.1 with the kernel that came with the Rom (1512mhz max, 384mhz min). Most syncing besides gmail is disabled.
I'll get a pic whenever i go unplugged again. I'm working remotely this week and am keeping it plugged up during conference calls.

A good recommendation would be mean rom. While it might not hav ethe best battery right now I can still get through a full day without charging. The reason i'd go with mean rom is cause I ran it on my evo 3d and it was perfect. It gets a lot of great updates and the support is amazing. It'll soon have the best battery and best features of any rom The link is my sig, enjoy
I am not rooted yet but I know viper was the first Rom out and he supports his Rom so strongly. He is also focused on battery life. You may wanna check that out.

I've gotten 4.5 hours screen time using hotwire's kang and around the same using fj's old cm9 build so it's more than likely a problem on your end.
However, I've noticed that gpsserviceprovider sometimes doesn't shut off completely after using gps and is and preventing the phone from going into deep sleep. Sometimes I would go to sleep with a 100 % charge and wake up with an 86% charge. Searched around and seems to happen on some cm9 roms. A reboot solves the issue though.
Your best bet is to install betterbatterystats and check your wakelocks. Probably some app causing it on your end.

Lol well I was in your boat for awhile. However, I finally just got annoyed with having to pay attention to my battery. I don't like not having full sync and location on etc, now I don't have to worry about it. Honestly, the size difference isn't even noticeable anymore. And the benefit outweighs the negative for me personally.

Lol well I was in your boat for awhile. However, I finally just got annoyed with having to pay attention to my battery. I don't like not having full sync and location on etc, now I don't have to worry about it. Honestly, the size difference isn't even noticeable anymore. And the benefit outweighs the negative for me personally.

we all know that the battery life is crap on the amaze. It's no surprise. What I've been wondering since is why? why is it such a battery hog. In terms of CPU and ram, it's only slightly higher than the sensation and the sensation has a great battery life. I know the sensation and Amaze are completely different phones and hardware is completely different, but what makes the amaze have such a bad battery life? anyone ever able to figure this out?

Might be the kernel, extra horsepower, less optimizations than the sensation?
I always assumed it was the absolutely stunning screen that did it.

It's the display, it uses too much power and heats up too quickly, which uses more energy than it should, that's just imo though.
i used google maps tonight to get to my daughters swim meet. 2 hours and 29 minutes uptime and my battery literally went from 100% to 35%, no exaggeration. the only thing i was amazed by was how ****ty my battery life is. oh well, 2 more days and this phone goes in the drawer to collect dust

No that sounds about right

The display for sure since we're rockin' that qHD, now had it been a Super Amoled - it'll make a big difference in terms of power usage. I've set my display to the lowest (helps out battery drainage most of the time) and i've also downloaded JuiceDefender (works great).

Unfortunately so huh? I keep my brightness at 30% at all times too

with the emerging on aosp roms, we can tweak the voltage that certain parts of hardware get. you never know, this phone might have had a code problem like the gs3 where they accidentally set the voltage too high and the phones battery died like crazy

Amaze has horrible battery life, I get decent battery life but thats because I use my ipad for gaming and vídeos and Internet. I use My amaze for social things and calls/text.... Oh and for hotspot

Is the display on amaze better/different than one s? Sounds like one s has a much better battery life

Maybe you can donate it to one of the developers so they can help improve the amaze for those of us who like it? Just a thought.
What? I said that?

I wouldn't
Pay 200-300 for a phone to have it for 6 months only to give it to a stranger?
Terrible idea of an investment. Especially since he wouldn't be able to get any benefit since he would no longer own the phone.
