I have been using Android Revolution HD since 5.1.9 with Sense 3.0 All in one. With medium use (few phone calls, sms, browsing the internet) my battery lasts 24-48 hours. That's good enough for me :)
[Desire HD General] Alabai:
Virtuous unity:)
[Desire HD General] :
The answer, to be honest, is that is doesn't really make much difference. If you are comparing ROMs that are all no the same base, you will get similar battery life, as the core of the ROM is the same.

You are typically going to see slightly higher battery usage on the Sense 3.0 ROMs, merely because the phone has to work slightly harder with those. However, the difference is minimal.

That all said, if you are willing to give up Sense, you will likely get best battery life with an AOSP based ROM like CM7.

The answers you will get here will be vague; everybody's usage is different, and a lot of people's answers will be the same as their answers to the question "what ROM are you using?".
[Desire HD General] jets76:
Miui 1.7.22v2 with LordModUE 6.2 2WCR CFS kernel. Very good battery life I'm happy with. I get a 1-2% drop per hour of standby; worth noting:

-Call recorder always running

-Screen is on 100% brightness throughout the day as I work outdoors and need to see without squinting :)

-I leave GPS and Bluetooth always on.

-Juice defender (Ultimate Juice) helps a bit; I have it manage WIFI. Since I only use it at home it enables it only when I am near or at home.

-Ringer maxed out with vibrate alway enabled.

Whenever I flash a fresh ROM I find calibrating the battery makes a difference for me too:

Fully charge your battery. Not plug it off when the led turns green, but when Current Widget stops reporting a charge (it slowly decreases). You will see that it takes sometimes more than 1 hour after the green led, to fully charge your battery. If your phone is rooted, delete the file ‘data\system\batterystats.bin’ with a file explorer to reset your battery calibration, and reboot.

I have used Revolution, CoreDroid and now is LeeDroid. I think CoreDroid v6.8 is the best battery life since the dev gave huge improvement on this version

cm7 nightly with lordmodue 6.3 cfs kernel and the puv script, just 4-6ma with screen off. so far so good.

for ASOP rom, HydrogenMOD... its just cm7 nightly but the battery is amazing. im not sure what he changes but its good. this is good with lordmods BFS kernal and his puv script

for Sense, Leedroid... this rom has the best battery, this rom always lasts the longest.
[Desire HD General] aypee3:
Nothing compares Leedroid rom with sense 3 rosie 3d effects with excellent battery life.
[Desire HD General] Vessarius:
I prefer AR HD 5.1.1 for batery life. New version absorb more energy :(.
[Desire HD General] Summ0:
Yesterday i installed newest cm7 via bootmanager and i have much better batterylife than newest leedroid build. Odd i think...
[Desire HD General] giusdk:
I use HoneySense, and thats the first custom rom I ever tried..

My battery life is significant better, and my WiFi signal strength is much much stronger now.
[Desire HD General] ProreX:
I use Virtuous Unity 1.29.0 and I'm more than satisfied with battery life. it uses only 4% overnight, which was in some ROMs more than 15% with same applications installed. Also, this is most stable ROM i tried, and I tried many of them. No FC at all and all working like charm.

Also, to improve battery life you should consider sync options and frequency because if you put frequency to 1 hour it will use more battery compared to 4 hours sync.
[Desire HD General] :
Just as a comparison, even though I posted before, I'm getting similar idle battery life with my setup, running FB, Gmail, Trillian, Google services (Contacts, +, and Calendar), Weather every hour, Tweetdeck every hour, and I get the same drain. Unplugged my phone this morning, and 1hr 7mins later was still at 100%.

Drain on all the ROMs nowadays is amazingly low :D Only a month and a half ago my drain was around 4% an hour with the same tasks! Not ROM issues, just the way things were really.
[Desire HD General] uomoto:
Virtuous 1.29 and TB FUsion 2.0.0 ;)

You just need chose ROM what you realy like and then customize it to your needs.

Also use SetCPU..
[Desire HD General] muscad:
I have been using Hydrog3n mod and Alienminds rom with great success.
[Desire HD General] ellyn:
so far i've tried unity and desense, both offer very good battery life
[Desire HD General] :
This. But not SetCPU; OC Daemon works far better, and is built into all the Sense ROMs nowadays.

[Desire HD General] lupin87:
I am using Virtuous Unity 1.27.0.

Battery life looks quite good :D
[Desire HD General] paul.xda:
I have used CD and AR. My personal fav is the CD. Battery live can be extended by using autobrightness and SetCPU.

With normal use load mine every 2 day's. Though i must say that i turn of wifi, roaming and data when i don't need it. (Sleeping, etc)

Good luck

Though it's very late reply but it may help other new users. From personal experience I would go for ROM that gives me the best support. not to wait for another month to get a reply.
[Desire HD General] jaybo1au:
I am pretty new to this but started flashing ROMs for this exact reason...because of the poor battery life I was getting with the stock HTC setup. So far I have tried a whole host of different ROMs with compleyely varying outcomes. It can depend on a number of factors such as:

* The radio you run in conjunction with the ROM

* The kernell (big factor)

* Whether it is Sense 2.1/3.0, AOSP, CMY

* The apps and widgets that you run

* The screen brightness/timeout/background

etc, etc, etc

You just need to flash as many of the ROMs as you can and test them in a host of different environments.

For what it's worth these have been my personal favorites .....so far :):

Sense 2.1: ARHD 5.2.3

Sense 3.0: Honey3D v1.1 (will be shame if this doesn't stay supported)

AOSP: Alienminds CM7.1

Cheers,

Jaybo

I give my vote to Revolution HD.
[Desire HD General] ivanlaszik:
Hy there,

I am big fan of CM (since I brought the DHD home from the store had only cm based roms). Usualy i get 1.5 days of Battery, but since 2.3.5 is out, I installed Stunning HD 2.0 (CM7.1 2.3.5 Rom) the battery life has skyrocketed. On my normal usage i get almost 3 days. Now I have no idea if the rom is the cause or the 2.3.5 but it is amazing.

My setup and usage:

Rom: Stunning HD 2.0

Radio: 12.54.60.25_26.09.04.11_M2.

LauncherPro with 3 Homescreens, 3 widgets: CM Powercontrol, Traffic Counter Pro, LPP Calendar Widget, the rest are app shortcuts.

Almost never have data connections open because I don`t surf the web to much on phone, but I work alot with office (excels and powerpoints), pdfs, image touchup, listen to music, and sometimes play a game. If I do go online then its basic instant messaging to have a word with a business partner, and maybe check an email. I have no facebook, twitter, or any other social network account nor app installed.

Everytime I flash a new rom I test the batterylife one time as follows: charge to 100% and leave the phone alone (= dont use, work with the backup phone) till it dies: untill now all CM7 based roms I had the battery lasted almost 4 days, with this Stunning HD 2.0 it reached 6 days and 2 hours.

Wish all a nice day!

Ivan.
[Desire HD General] johansenmo:
This is a big point! having no data connection is for sure giving nearly every rom a great battery life. having automatic data connection for whatever will get your battery going down much faster.

I'm using honey3d run with undervolt script - I'm using my phone often, with internet connection active and have to plug the phone to power every 2 days which is great!
[Desire HD General] muscad:
I usually get between 24 and 28 hours on Cyanogenmod based rom with puv script and have mobile data switch on all the time.

hi.

I've tried search and not managed to resolve this, though I'm sure I'm missing something simple.

Just been given a htc desire, to replace my spica, and want to remove simlock and root (for apps2sd, adblock etc)

i removed simlock using the bootable iso downloaded from here

trying to follow the rooting guide for the One click Radio S-OFF, SimUnlock tool, and I'm hitting "unknown error, probably connection

using search I found a suggestion to use adb shell, followed by su, which gives permission denied.

I then downloaded terminal emulator and typed su, permission denied.

So I guess I don't have root, even though I installed visionary+ and clicked temproot now followed by attempt permroot now, and the reboot.

What should I do to complete rooting the phone?

Is there any chance to make the phone not waking up when it loses the signal?

When I lock the phone I see sometimes it wakes up because of losing the signal (I think that causes the problem, let me know if I am wrong) and then after 30s the screen turns off.

I think it is consuming the battery. I've got it on Lite and have it now on Exynos 3.4
