For those of you who have used two or all of these Sense ROMs, which do you prefer? Stability and battery life are my priorities with performance third.

Im gonna have to say eternity rom by virus with tiamat sense kernel. It by far the smoothest rom out, ive tried them all including myn. Eternity is odex so it is much smoother than deodex roms.

How's the battery life on both of these ROMs?
myn's wins hands down....
although i got great battery on decks (until it totally crashed and wouldnt boot out of random and always rebooted and stuff for me)
and synergy had great performance (too far into beta though. looks and feels very unfinished and buggy)
I gotta give it to Eternity.
I've used ViperROM 1.3. Synergy from r100 to 502. Myn Warm 2.3, steelH, and SHOGUN.
I give it to Eternity without question.
Haha decks takes the W come on you want most stable and battery life i use my phone all the time and still get 20 plus hours on decks.

Why is Virus ROM so smooth and fast?
I mean I have tryed many Roman and they don't compare to his?
Dumb question but I wonder why...?
Because Virus uses Jews. Not Romans.
Romans are too rough.
Jewish folk don't put up any fight..
Which is why everything works so easily.
Make sense?
Cause it shouldn't...
Lol, I wondered this same thing. I've been flashing ROMs since the Hero and I've never run a ROM that stood out so well from a smoothness standpoint.

I have to agree. Infected 1.3.1 I think is the smoothest compared to the later versions IMO though. I've also tried Olympus Trinity (non beats version) and also as smooth and screen capture works. But to me it isn't as fast (YMMV)
Synergy is fast too and smooth , but if u try another rom you can noticed the difference.
I'm on Synergy now and love it. Very fast,stable and smooth. If I wanna try another one like Infected how do I do it? Back up, full wipe then flash?

I was having problems with every rom I flashed on here until I came across Infected Rom Eternity. Before I was getting Quadrant scores of 1000 or so. Now I am getting 2400-2900 with no OC on the Kernel. It's so smooth and stable it's scary. No, I actually haven't been able to sleep much the past few nights because I am up wondering how Virus made this thing so freaking amazing.
Yup virus is awesome

you should try the WTSB Evo3D sense v2.0 . Awesome
i was test driving virus and loved it till i tried to make a call and phone force closed then when i received a call it also force closed into a force close loop and i couldnt decline or answer the call so it continued to ring and vibrate very annoying lol...anyone else have this issue and can it be fixed because i loved the rom just need the phone for calls as im in the army

Okay, so once upon a time, I was a obsessed with flashing. Now I'm old and too busy to keep up with all the activity in the dev sub-forum.
I was hoping somebody would point me to a ROM I can stick with. My primary needs are speed and stability. I don't want a ROM with the latest bells and whistles if it keeps crashing or freaking out on me. I want something that is reliable, has good battery life, and gets the job done.
I would really appreciate help with this. Thank you!

Kinda hard to say depends on the kernel and rom combo. I'm on eternity right now testing it out no crashes for me everything seems to be smooth . Also if cyanogenmod starts putting out roms for the EVO 3d you would have a sweet rom and excellent battery life.
Use CM7 for normal use, excellent batery life and performance
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1393613
(don't have sense (oviusly), HDMI output, 3D camera..... BT stereo works, 2D camera works and everything else)
Use Infected rom eternity sense 3.0 r59 To have all funtions with good Batery life and very good performance etc (or try r74 if you don't want to use HDMI)
those are my recommendations
Eternity 1.4.2 with either RCMix or Anthrax kernel (or what it comes with, stock I think). Although I really like some of the nightly 1.5s Sense 3.0 roms from Virus. I'm on what's in my sig and it is really fast and stable. Decent battery life also.
For stability, everything works, ect.......nocturnals blackened or adrenaline.

Hello Thunderbolt users, I need your help with something. I finally convinced my girlfriend to rooting her Thunderbolt, now I need to know what's the most recommended ROM for the Thunderbolt, it needs to be stable, no major bugs, what do you guys recommend?

It depends if she likes sense or not. I've been running eternity which is a sense 3.5 rom which runs excellent, stable and fast. And for aosp I've run thundershed cm7.2. Very quick and stable. Another cm7.2 based rom to check is the new rom zombie. I just loaded it up and so far is awesome. Has a nice red theme to it.

That 3.5 Rom drains crazier then a rat in outhouse. In ten minutes lost 10% then lost more about the same rate. This Rom needs to be fixed.as that is not stable. Seems as is stock os the best on the battery, and that is sad. Also your my Verizon app won't work which is another area of concern with limited data and shared plans we need to have an app that works. UNACCeptable people to have those two issues. My Verizon app is not.bloate as it gives vital account information.

I guess that's too hard for some people.
Dont listen to this idiot. He doesn't know how to set a rom up to save his life so don't pay attention to what he says. He has been banned twice already. Eternity gets better battery life than any rom i have tried. That includes stock which has horrible battery life.

You force me to agree with the troll, damn it! I have to qualify your statement with: 'which eternity'? I was very happy with 248 but when I updated to my battery life dropped down to 5 - 6 hours(!) with no change in the setup.
I'm getting over 14 hours of battery life with Gingeritis 3d by comparison and the phone is getting the same or more use.

Yes, r248 had better battery life then the latest test builds.
Why is that you ask?
As I stated in the Eternity thread, the newest build has a test kernel from Ziggy based on the latest OTA, as is the new test build Rom.
That kernel has an identified and known issue where the Performance and On Demand governor are locked at Max, no matter what you do.
The solution:
Change governor to Lag Free, or install Imos 6.2 kernel for Mr4 based roms, or the Bamf 3++ kernel.
Then apply your preferred CPU settings.
Battery use should return to as good or Better then r248.
The new kernel in the Rom is being reworked currently to resolve the issue.
So, the concern is with the kernel, more so then the Rom.
As far as Gingeritis having better battery life, I don't doubt that any Sense 3.5 Rom is going to be somewhat more draining on our devices/batteries.
Im talking about r248 but i still had decent battery on the test builds.

Your explanation is very much appreciated but......
I never thought I'd say this and it's subject to change from hour to hour...... I'm pretty much stuck on Gingeritis 3D, getting up in the AM, subjecting the phone to fairly heavy use and seeing 50% battery or more remaining when I go to bed is something I thought I'd never see after abandoning my BB for Android and.....
I seem to have lost my enthusiasm for messing with this phone for some reason? Every thing works now with Thunderstick BB or Eternity or Liquid or ???? and the only reason I change from one ROM to another is some minor annoyances and battery life so.... I think maybe I'll leave well enough alone.
I'm saving my flashing desires for when the devs get ICS with Sense 4.x, I'll don't think I'll flash ICS with Sense 3.x and I might just wait for Jellybean?
I have about forever left on my contract and then we'll see what's up.
So it changed as I said it might! Tried the Bamf kernel and battery life is back to normal.
Up until yesterday I had been running the Thunderstick GenII rom for the last 6-7 months (been running Thunderstick roms since last September..when Verizon bricked my phone with their update). It is a very stable Sense rom, and the only issue I had with it was my custom ring tones would sometimes get confused. The only reason I upgraded was to try something new (now running Thunderstick FullBlown) and I am half tempted to go back to the GenII just because it has some features I like that the FullBlown version does not.
Been running ThunderStick ROMS (FB, BB) for a good while... They just work on my phone. YMMV. Flashed SfKCM7 (AOSP) last nite and it runs real smooth... Gonna ride with this til I get the itch :beer:

Their Bistro for mods is cool too
I was going to go to MeanBean. However, not sure about this Tranquility ROM. Is it even on XDA? Is it heavily themed or more stock? I am giving my phone to my father-in-law and want him to have a good ROM that just works and is close to stock in look.
just going to chime in here, if youre looking for a stock rom best bet is build yourself. it's easy enough to do if you follow some steps. sense isnt really stock imo
if youre looking for something nice to run theres plenty of roms out. best advice is try em all.
Another vote for Tranquility. I've run MeanBean for a while and it was good. Tranquility seems slightly smoother and the theming is excellent. Tranquility was on XDA, but they removed it. Now it's on www.themikmik.com
I did add Zepplinrox multitasking mod, which Mean bean already has in it. Makes a noticeable difference, especially with Sense reloads.
Is tranquility stock looking? On mikmik, it looks heavily themed.

My biggest concern is battery life, I don't sit on my phone all day so I'm mostly concerned with how the phone behaves while the screen is off; though I do like a smooth experience when it's on.
I'll post back with my initial impression of MeanBean and my experience with the battery once I've had long enough to establish a norm.
-- Question from me. Anyone recommend a kernel over the stock kernel? Maybe something with better governors or fastcharge?

For your situation I would go with OMJ 2.2. It is an ICS rom but runs super smoothe, fast, and has exceptional battery life, and everything works. OMJ also has a later version 2.6 which uses Aroma so you can customize yourself.
