yes, definitely. check out the jb bulds that have recently come out
Performance wise: just pure amazing.
Development: Excellent! New Roms and updates almost daily.
Battery wise: Crap. Unless you buy an extended battery, your looking at up to 1:30 hours of screen on time. Compared to other phones that have 3 hours.
Damn I get 6+ hours of screen on time with my Inc2

ymmv with the battery life. i've seen plenty of people with really good battery life reports on aosp (cm9 or cm10). getting anywhere from 3-4 hours screen on with the standard battery. obviously not the 6 hours your getting on your inc, but its to be expected with a better screen and a bigger screen.
Hmmm good to know still debating about buying one for $200 off a friend.

i think that's pretty subjective. but development on this phone is great. sense 3.6, sense 4, cm9, cm10 roms all available. and battery life will obviously depend on usage. jsut start looking through the rom threads to get a better sense of things.

I'm running mean horsey face job ROM I'm at 90% battery with 1 hour 10 min screen on time. I was playing bejeweled for a while. The new jb ROMs seem to be pretty amazing on battery life. I do run an extended battery though.
I have a stock battery (with water damage) running my jb build and although I don't have the stats on hand but I tinker around online all day and I don't have to worry about battery until about 8-9 pm running from 7:30 am
Great devoloping phone
I'd have to say if you are used to geting your hands dirty this is a great phone to mess around with. Certain things are tricky to learn like the S-Off trick. The batery life and speed on this phone is great. I've used almost every rom for this and the 2 roms that ive met that meet my requirements for now are Viper Rez 1.0.3 and jelybean ┬─┬ ノ( ^_^ノ) rom. I prefer to use the Amon Ra Recovery and nandroid backup and restore is my bestfriend when switching my roms out. The best thing i've learned though is how to use the kitchen and theming for any device ive owned.
I'm pretty familiar with the Kitchen but what so do I need to upload? For CM7 I just pulled the apk theme and uses that. CM10 you need framework Res? What else

Don't be fooled by the optimism of these guys. There is currently no AOSP variant that is fully functional. CM9 is closer than 10, but there are still things that don't fully work. If you want everything to work as it should, you will need a Sense 3.6 rom and battery life will not be very good. The awesome screen on this phone drains a battery very quickly. We do have some great devs working on both Sense and AOSP, but they can't really make the screen more efficient.

well, what exactly, outside of bluetooth calling isn't fully functioning on aosp? afaik, nothing. and even on sense 3.6 roms, there are plenty of very optimized roms with some awesome kernels that can actually give you pretty good battery life.

You just made my point. If everything doesn't work, then it is not fully functional. As for battery life, it will always be personal opinion as to what is "good", but I don't consider 2-2.5 hours screen on time to be good (and that is what I have seen reported more often than not).
Don't get me wrong, I do think the Rez is a good phone, but it isn't great, and I probably wouldn't spend $200 to get one right now. I was lucky enough to get mine for $50 back when they had it on special and still kept my unlimited.
Well I avg 2.5 hrs screen time stock battery on 4g on and sync and data for everything and over 4 on the OEM extended. Doesn't matter if I run aosp or sense or jb.
To the op, I very much enjoy my rezound and after having many phones on Verizon the rezound is still a fantastic device. However I would strongly suggest soff, amon ra, and multiple stock batteries with a wall/dock for them if you want to keep it slim. Camera is top notch. I run a sense 4 Rom currently and couldn't be happier. It's development is growing due to committed devs. I get battery battery life on my stock rezound battery and sense 4 or aosp that any Rom I had on my vzw nexus. Consistently. The screen is beautiful. Signal is always strong. Soff wil allow you to test many many combinations until you find something you like.

Most likely you are asking about Sense based roms.
I have ran both and currently am sticking with Nightly builds of Synergy. I just love the speed. And, my internet speeds on 3g, 4g, and wifi are all extremely faster with Synergy.

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 loved Viper, will go back to it once I'm finished playing with CM9.
I got better than 15 hours on my newest 3D. But I don't charge half charged batteries or let my phone go completely dead before charging either. I'm really old school when it comes to rechargeable batteries.
I'm trying to figure it out which ICS rom to flash based on battery life and I've narrowed it down to Mean Rom ICS and Viper Redline ICS, and I was wondering if anyone would mind posting pics of the battery times.
MEAN ICS v2.0
I'm currently running MR ICS 2.0 and I'm getting pretty decent batter life. I'll have a screen shot in the morning as I haven't actually measured so I'll do an overnight test and have the screenshot up in the AM. I haven't tried the ViperROm though.
I use MR also. Pretty decient useage and i get a solid 15 hours out of it. I tried Vipers ICS in the beginning and was getting about the same. Im not sure what he has changed since the first release. I would post a pic but i just switched back to a gingerbread Rom. ICS to me has some bugs and GB i was getting better battery life and faster performance.
Hope this helps

I went from Viper to MeanRom and never looked back. Even using Viper's CPU Control I still don't get the battery life that I do from Mean. Not to mention Mikey is focused on one sole device and Viperboy's attention is divided by at least two (3D and 4GLTE) maybe more I don't go to all the forums. Also, I use gps a lot my phone (Hardware Ver 2) runs a lot cooler with Mean then Viper when using the gps for hours upon hours. I've even used it for a 14 hour singe day drive once the screen was never off (I did use a car charger of course lol)
MeanROM.
Thanks!
Thanks Everyone! I decided to flash Mean Rom!

Or it could be what he has on his Screen. For Example he could have an alternative Launcher with one homescreen and a clock widget. And also i heard that if you use a regular black wallpaper it could save you quite amount of power. So maybe could throw in a Black Wallpaper in there.

a rom can give u better battery life.. rooting or unlocking the bootloader does not effect the battery.. im rocking viper rom with dual core mod and im geting better battery life than i was with stock.. i was geting good battery life with stock but im geting even better now..
For what its worth, i'm currently at 1d 11h 35m with 30% battery left on Viper ROM with my normal use.
I rooted the day after I received my new evo. However, I'm pretty sure on day 1/pre-root, I was excited to see 30% battery left after about 12-13hours.
Roms make the difference and so far are making a bigger difference on the LTE than compared to anything I ever achieved on the original Evo.
Nope same battery life for me...
This is a good thread. I've been wondering the same thing. I lurk the ROM threads all day and night, but still haven't flashed a ROM just because I'm getting such insane battery life on stock ROM I'm afraid to screw that up.
Sure looking forward to jumping off this odexed ROM, though. I may still just wait it out til AOKP is functional. (No matter what you do to sense, it's still sense )

Well, rooting itself does not enhance battery life but you CAN underclock the stock kernel which WILL enhance battery life.

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.

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)

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.

Battery life on ROMs is a tough variable. Having hung around these forums for a really long time I can tell you that you will see huge swings in reeactions to battery life, often on the same ROM. There are so many things that can influence battery life that it really is a YMMV thing. you might be able to get some general trends from reading ROM threads, but there is no such thing as "gospel truth". some genral thoughts
1. Push email and facebook chew through battery
2. The accepted consensus is that battery saver prgrams like juice defender can eat as much battery ormore than they save but if you have a specific use case they may work.
3. you can spend your whole day chasing wakelocks...
All ROMs generally have about the same battery life. Battery is all about how you use your phone and how you manage what is running in the background.

I have tried Sense 5.0, the Google Play Edition ROM and two CM nightly, the most recent one being July 5.
Both the GE and CM handily beat the stock Sense ROM in battery life (at least that was my perception).
CM 10.1 seemed to be a bit better than the Google Edition ROM (it also seems to be significantly more efficient in its use of resources which translates into better battery life), but there are still some issues with CM...NFC, Bluetooth, no Beats Audio Drivers, and I like the new Jelly Bean Camera App better so I am sticking with the GE ROM for the time being.
I love CM though and will probably go back to it once everything gets ironed out...
OK so I too have been questioning battery life. CM 11 did... OK. My previous phone was the Moto G, and comparatively my One has been doing terrible on battery life! I'm currently on Pacrom, tried PA and a couple similar as well, getting 9 hr battery life, 2 hr on (like what the f***!) according to GSam. I'm thinking about stock gpe and playing with kernels? Thoughts? Testing has been taking a while as I try to give every rom kernel combo 3 days at least, a week preferred.

A some what general consensus of Battery life for the One:
Sense > Google Edition > AOSP
In my opinion the best battery life will come from a fairly close to stock sense Rom such as MaximusHD with poondog's Kangaroo Kernel.
