2.2 (official) = best battery life and Stability
2.3(official)=decreased battery life compared to 2.2
2.3(Cm7)=Amazing perfomance , best for gaming
4.0 (cm9)= Decreased perfomance compared to 2.3 but better than jellybean
4.1(cm10)=Smooth compared to ics and ginger bread , but battery life is not good as we could get in gb or ics
4.2(cm10.1)=Smooothest......
camera quality decreased compared to ics , gb and jb 4.1
i felt that the best one is GB for all over perfomance...
like gaming and battery life

would be sweet if we would have 2.2 with some new tweaks and jb theme
it would have greatest battery life with minimum ram consumption, decent speed and it would look like jelly bean.
what else does an average user need?
I like stock gb most!
2.2 It was the best!
2.3- most stable with least bugs. can be used with custom kernel, which is a best combination for stability and performance. ( my current running rom )
2.3.7- light weight, fast with least bugs and themes for cm7 make it look great too!
4.04 pure cm9- I like the Google talk of ics and the themes too, Rom lags a bit, camera is not so promising.
4.1- I have never used it

2.2=average battery, average performance.
2.3 LG stock = good battery than froyo but little low performance
2.3.7=good battery, good performance, best roms imo
4.0.4=smooth but limited multitasking due to more ram usage, average battery
I didn't try 4.0 builds with 3.x kernels.
4.1 and 4.2 not tried...

Sent from my LG-P500..
My experience with P505
Froyo = antiquated, but usable if all you require is a simple smart phone
Gingerbread (Stock) = Less antiquated with more options, but stock is so proprietary which I don't appreciate
Gingerbread (2.3.7) = All the plusses of stock Gingerbread with more customization and less proprietary. Excellent battery life.
ICS (4.0.4) = non-proprietary with more options and much more pleasing UI. RAM consumption can be a negative, but using the V6 Supercharger scripts seems to really give a boost. As for battery life, I am still getting about 2 days of usage which is more than ample as long as I'm using one of sweetnsour's .35 kernels.
JB = Beautiful user interface and similar RAM consumption to ICS, however battery drain still needs to be tackled for me to consider using it as a daily driver. Work with the 3.0.x kernels may be promising with increasing both battery drain and performance.
I use the LG Phoenix P505, so most ROMs require me to flash a P505 compatible kernel so my options are a little more limited.

Hey guys,
I finally installed CM7 a few days a go (nightly #74), and I'm very pleased with it. The only downside, really, is the battery life. It's usable, but it drains at least 40% faster than Samsung-based ROMs.
Most of the power seems to be going to Cell Standby. I hear some of the custom kernels can improve things a lot.
Could those of you who have experimented with different kernels give me a good recommendation for a kernel and/or modem release which will work well? I just don't have time to spend hours digging through hundred-page forum posts these days...
Thanks in advance!
Glitch is good. Battery will be a bit better with a custom kernel but it still won't be as good as Froyo. Just the way it is.
What's your cell standby reading? Percentage of battery use? Also of android system and OS,?
from the amazing Jets Bread
i recommend NEO 9 v5 it has great battery life and its really smooth it comes with led version and no-led
When I ran CM7 Nightlies a while back I always stayed on the Stock Kernel. I guess that since Kernels aren't updated "Nightly" like the Nightlies you shouldn't use other ones. Just my personal preference.
Stock kernel is more stable but other kernels give better battery an there much smoother

Everyone's got an opinion on the "Best" rom, I just wanted to see which rom the forum thinks is the most stable with everything working.
I've tried lots of them and cant decide.
Obviously, it is Wolfbreak's rom. hands down.
T.A.E.M rom is great i think its better then wolfbreak's rom
Sent from my X10i or HD2 or Milestone XT720 or Samsung Galaxy S or Samsung Galaxy S2
In my opinion, on the sum of parameters, now the best ROM is ThGo2, v10
MIUI is best...
I have found Oodie's CM ROM has been great
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1384147
Battery life is good as is the stability.
for further stability, any stock se 2.3.3 rom ( locked and unlocked bootlaoder)

miui- oodies light version, also i used tripndroid rom which was pretty stable as well..u can find this one in modaco
cm7- zmods 2.3.5

ohh you're damn right. for me, that is the best of the best. REALLY THE BEST.
@deckerm, if you want a recommendation from me, try ThGo2. There is a new version, the v13, but a bootmanager kernel needs to be fixed. but there's a stable version of the rom, just look at it, and you will look happy.
but for the majority of the people here in the forum, Wolfbreak's rom is the one.
but for me, hands down. ThGo2 rom. ^^
I like EWJet, its super fast and everything is working great!

Stock rom: Wolf, ThGo2 and ... ----- stable and can be fast with custom kernel
cm rom: FXP is ****ing fast, MIUI has greate UI.
For long term stability, Wolf is the rom. T.E.A.M. is good, too. Currently using prime, no problems except the ones I create. Any rom must settle some and although our phones are X10, they can react differently to the same rom. For your poll, Wolf will probably be on top.
I totally agree!! For me Wolf's Rom gives me best stability & fastest Gingerbread Rom I tried so far!!!
Only thing I regret is not having anything to flash no more :'(
Great Rom!!!!
Sent from my X10 using Wolf's Gingerbread UB
I like TEAM.
I started to have stability problems with Wolf's rom after 1.5 mo of use w/o flashing (stuck on start-up after reboot, stuck in airplane mode). I switched over to TEAM for the last 3 mo. and no stability problems and speed is good. Then again everyone's phone reacts differently due to settings & apps, so I say try one, and if it doesn't work, try another.
MIUI Prime for me the best rom I had before. Very stable, nice and long battery life (about 3-5 days with 2G only, synch off, brightness 40%).
Oodies CM7 for me. Great battery life and smooth running.
wolf's ROM does not really give the best battery life possible.... I'm still looking for a ROM that can give best battery life.
Sent from my X10i using XDA App
Probably not but I don't think that any Rom can make my battery last much longer!! My battery normally lasts about a day, while heavy usage!! I Also calibrated it.
If you want your battery to last for a long time, I'd suggest to buy a larger battery, that's just my opinion.

Totaly agree im a cyanogenmod guy because i like the twaeks and extras and overall i don´t like wolfs WLAN instability for me again and again WLAN rips of deactivate its selfs and so on... additional if you using ttorrent you can forget wolfs rom also MUIU Prime because WLOD.
Needles to say that Wolfbreak and Oodie did a ****ing great job on this rom´s but i don´t like how MUIU looks like Iphone or BADA. Because why did we buy an android device? because it has to look like ab Iphone? Well...
FXP 7.2 is very stable and if ya a gamer... well the quadrant score for me with 245- 1037 with governor Interactiv was over 1300
many great games run smooth for example: Dead speace for android, Thirdblade and asphalt 5 runs great lags are possible yeah but very rare

Hi guys ,
as you are well aware I'm new here, and have made an account on XDA so I can share my opinion and also read yours in hope of a solution.
Anyway I'm currently running an official 2.3.6 ROM on my Ace, and have gone through just about everything the Development section has to offer, from TheMyths' ICS to unofficial CM7 Kang builds, but I'm still looking for a perfect blend of stability, battery, lag free (smooth) ROM's.... And need help deciding.
So far I've noticed that the CM7 builds seem to have the best performance (benchmarked by Quadrant standard) and works fine, however I haven't had the time to observe the battery life...
Ultimately an ICS clone would be sick, I love the style, since CM looks fugly in my opinion.
Also would like to know what kind of tweaks you guys use for your Aces' to get a little extra juice from your batteries...
Thanks
Hm....You could try and use SGS2 rom from space caker,or gingercruzt or infinity,both from nims11

The battery life, as reported by many users including me, tends to be rather relatively miserable.

If you want a very convincing ICS look alike, I suggest you pick out a CM7 build and download AChep's ICS theme.

I'm using GadgetCheck's V8.5 Supercharger tweaks, plus Slaid's SlaidFASTMod V2.5 (not updating to his new LagFree scripts since I experience some odd UI lags here and there (ironically)).
If you really want to save on your batteries, try setting your governor to conservative or powersave (though powersave will lag your phone to the point of 1984) and don't overclock (flash a non-OC kernel, if you want).
And check out JuiceDefender. It'll turn off radio connections when the screen is off, and I saved around 165% worth of battery life with that app. The only downside is is that it ****s up with push notifications, and I need those for my IM and email.
EDIT:
I forgot, you asked for a specific ROM.
Well, I for stability and efficient battery consumption, I recommend you just stick with stock ROM (or something based on it), since it was compiled specifically for SGA hardware. My longest relationship with a stock ROM was fla.sh's fla.sh X2.3 ROM followed by sametpoyraz's Glsmt 2.1 (I know it says Glsmt 3.0, but a download link was never provided). Both of them are considered dead projects, but that doesn't mean that the ROMs aren't half bad!
Thanks [/QUOTE]

For stability and speed, I hands down recommend ICS Final. The rom I'm using. As for battery life, you can have the best battery with ANY kind of rom. Just check out the thread on my signature ;D
Thanks for all the replies to my thread thus far... will definitely try that SetCPU... As far as Slaids scripts go however, I did once try that but found my device would have lag, that being screen tearing.
Hello
I have just come from a htc sensation with an ICS rom with nova launcher, getting around 20 hours battery life and a no bugs ICS experience with nova launcher and a few tweaks such as miui battery bar, centre clock etc.
I am currently using pure ICS with nova launcher set the way I want and it's very good but the battery lasts about 8 hours and there are no tweaks.
Are there any other ICS roms with better battery life and some tweaks? I can always put nova launcher on top if it is not in the rom.
I don't use the phone an awful lot and have the exact same apps andwidgets as on my sensation, hence why the battery life is strange to me, is this normal for a sgs2?
I was using the same rom , then Andyx from both ics and battery life on both was pants, I then flashed cm9 experimental which is now on nightlies and I think its the dogs bollox, only downside is no USB connect to PC until they fix it, but using from manager premium you don't need a PC anyway everything is straight to the phone, a minor hiccup for an awesome rom

I don't want to try loads of roms, my main concern with my current one is the battery life so testing lots of roms isn't great for me as I need my phone at work, that's why I asked peoples opinions. I just want a nice ICS rom with a few tweaks and good battery life. I hate touch wiz so the official ICS update is no good for me.
The sgs2 is a lot faster than my sensation but with my current battery life I would rather swap back to the slower phone and get nearly three times the battery life.
There are also a lot of roms for the s2 hence why I asked people rather than trying loads and they also get updated nearly every day.
I suggest you don't go for ics just yet if your only real concern is battery and as for tw, tough luck I'm afraid.
Try the latest stock gb with neak custom kernels. Best battery life I ever had. Oh and on the subject of best roms, that's totally down to personal configuration.

Yes but ICS is a beta test rom base why not wait for roms to be built on the actual working firmware . I have yet to see one ICS beta based rom that does not have a problem or two and they tend to be random and varied judged by all the help ICS rom xxx dont work posts . Plus battery life is not that good on the leaks .
You might get ten replies that ICS zzz rom is good but wont see the hundred users that have removed it .

IMHO, best ICS rom out there. Using it for 5 days now (heavy user) - not a single FC in 5 days, very stable, fast, customization options rock! Battery life 12 hours really heavy usage / 24 hours moderate usage. No bugs, except video not saving and no FM radio, but these are known...
Hi
I am pretty much obsessed with battery life.
I have been trying few roms and I have yet to find the perfect one for me.
1) gingerbread 2.3.6 stock rom unroot
Performance wise is so so. Battery life, not what I expected
2) gingerbread 2.3.6 rooted
Tweak the CPU and does see a lot of improvement in battery life.
3) ICS stunner. 19
Great rom but I feel that the battery does drain a lot.
4) ICS cyanofree
Smoother compared to stunner but battery wise is worse than stunner
5) Gingerbread 2.3.6 rooted
Back to gb to see if there's any difference in terms of battery life. Better than the Ics
I do have a lot of my friends who are using the custom ics and their battery life is superb. I don't know why mine is bad.
6) stunner 19
Back to stunner again. Still feel the battery doesn't last. Heart pain when you have to under utilize the phone just to save the juices.
7) litening rom 1.0 (currently using )
awesome even thought that its not as smooth compare to the ics. Battery wise improved a lot but I am still searching for even better one.
Question.
Anyone using speedmod or Franco kernel before and could you share your experience especially the battery life?
By the way. The testing are based on my observation. It may differ from other people.
Appreciate it very much.
