Sense 1.9 means Froyo/Gingerbread, doesn't it?

If it does, I don't want to give her a phone with outdated software if it's able to run a newer one.

I'll only say Gingerbread is outdated when most users are running ICS on their devices. Last time I checked ICS is just around 5% of the total Android population. Gingerbread around 65%.

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] land.apfel:
At the moment I'm running BCM, too.

Gingerbread even is outdated if many people use it. It's just popular.

ICS just has some nice features that GB doesn't have :-/

I just tried sandvold and BCM ics roms.

I actually prefer BCM for its nice Aroma installer which offers many customizations :

app2sd or not

kernel choice

Trebuchet, Nova or Apex launcher

Boot animation : CM9 or BCM

android or chrome beta browser

If you want ICS with Sense as easy as possible, I would recommend ARHD or InserCoint ROMs. But please, take into account that all ICS Sense ROMs are based on leaked betas at the moment. So please, read very carefully before flashing something.
[HTC Sensation] Brobarian:
I'm loving ICS ROMS, mainly Virtuous Inquisition and Virtuous Quattro. Really depends what you want though. The ROMS stated above are Senseless ROMS, I personally don't like sense. It is all personal preference. AS far as "are they good," flash the ROMs and see if you like them. All your answers can be found in the forums. Are they going to be close to official ICS releases? Maybe, but keep in mind these are ICS leaks that people are creating, and if they are AOSP, then no not quite what they will officially release for ICS. However, we don't know until release, for the time being, flash a ROM and see if you like it.

Does anyone know the best fully functioning rom with the best battery life?

(Sense or AOSP)

Thanks in advance!
[EVO 4G General] mike208:
CyanogenMod 7 with tiamat kernel gets pretty good battery life. The kernels tend to have mor eaffect on battery life then the roms themselves.
[EVO 4G General] KayxGee1:
Thanks!

And for some reason my gf's EVO is dying really fast. I mean it drains 1% every 5 mins.

I replaced the battery and still the same thing. It's running CM7.

Try MIUI with Tiamat 3.3.7 SBC
[EVO 4G General] pvaldeben:
Sounds like she might have 4g running all the time. Or maybe she might be updating/refreshing her background data to often. Only use 4g to down load big files or steaming vedio. Check her 4g connection and turn off or her sync rate set it to every 3 hours or more. If one or both are the culprit then she'll see a big improvement.

I run EVO Deck rom with cyanogenmod love it. And every thing works.

Hope this helps
[EVO 4G General] CTTKDKing:
I figured I'd chime in because you said you wanted a fully functioning ROM. CM7 and Deck had always yielded the best battery life for me with the last rev of the Savage Zen Kernel, but if you're like me and are very anal about the phrase "fully functioning" then it should be noted that the AOSP ROMs don't have 720p video recording. If that doesn't bother you than CM7 or Deck all the way.

That said i'm running TommyTomato's Classic ROM with the Freedom Agressive kernel and I'm getting 25+ hours on a charge which puts it on par with any AOSP ROM/kernel combo I've run. Might be able to get a little better on AOSP, but I'd say that's pretty damn good and it's fully functioning as in EVERYTHING works 100%. :D
[EVO 4G General] KayxGee1:
4G is never on, Background data is unchecked, Email is set to manual sync, brightness is dimmed, no wifi. I feel as if I've done every battery saving trick in the book.

But I realized yesterday that I had SetCPU at 700mhz to save battery. I uninstalled it and the battery life wasn't dropping so rapidly. I can't say that was the issue. I'll have to run a few more test.
[EVO 4G General] KayxGee1:
I will definitely try that combo and see what happens. I always flash roms but never kernels, to scared haha.
[EVO 4G General] scottspa74:
I get better battery on drews ICS ROM Than any from I've run in a year. I use it as a daily, it isn't completely fully functioning though, as 4g doesn't work and video is iffy.

That said, after I updated to latest radio, my battery is dying much faster........did you do the radio update ?
[EVO 4G General] smelkus:
If you're flashing ROMs, you're already flashing kernels. Don't fear the kernel flash. Tiamat Lee on CM7 or Deck's is where it's at.
[EVO 4G General] KayxGee1:
Nope, no radio update. Im going to see how the battery life is at the end of the day without SetCPU.
[EVO 4G General] alaman68:
MIUI or salvagemod 1.4 with Tiamat 3.3.7 SBC
[EVO 4G General] KayxGee1:
I meant interchanging kernels with custom roms.

A lot of people are saying the same thing so I guess I'll try those recommendations.
[EVO 4G General] sharkboy0901:

[EVO 4G General] Diablo67:
I'm on Tommys Classic Supermagic,running the Hard to kill battery calibration script from Zepplins thread and i'm getting the best battery life i've had on any other rom and i've used this script with about 10 different roms,from AOSP to Sense 3.0,wont run 3.5 because of bugs and no 4G,after a full charge with alot of phone calls,texts and surfing,i held a charge for 4 days,it was 67% on the second day and actually died on the forth AM.
[EVO 4G General] bairds1:
I'd definitely do a comparison between screen-on and awake time.

If you don't know this, you can access it through Settings > About Phone > Battery Use/History/Etc. See if the bar graphs of screen-on match awake. If you see a long bar under awake, but not a matching one under screen-on, you probably have a process or app that is stuck and needs to be removed/re-installed or have it's data cleared.

Note: it's normal to have some awake time that doesn't match screen on as apps/processes still have to perform there activities even with the screen-off, however, it shouldn't be a ton.

The best app out there to study this IMO is betterbatterstats. Hope this helps! Cheers!
[EVO 4G General] necroticbrain:
I ended up going to amazon and getting a extended battery for 9 bucks, cheap yes but works with roaming (lasted 2 days). I got 2 and both work no problems at all, just dont trust it with the roms that have the constant charge built in.

It's a gamble though.
[EVO 4G General] yankeeboy254:
Deck's 2.3.7 w/ Tiamat gets me through a full day of moderate to heavy usage with room to spare (about 15%). Data, wifi and GPS enabled from 7AM until around the same time at night. The new Sense OTA gives decent battery life though, but not quite as great as any AOSP ROM.
[EVO 4G General] oOflyeyesOo:
Don't use SetCPU with CM7, just use the built in, it will save a lot of battery life. Sure vipermod along with v6 super charger.
[EVO 4G General] TheDonSD:
I have used several different ROMS now, but I am using NRG's Sensation XL, and it has been the best Sense 3.5 ROM I have found Battery life wise.
[EVO 4G General] KayxGee1:
I installed Tommy's latest Evo Classic senseless version and battery life greatly improved but for some reason everytime an incoming call is answered, speaker phone is automatically on. It's very annoying and I can't figure out how to get it off. I've literally tried everything.
[EVO 4G General] KayxGee1:
Wow I'm an idiot. I completely forgot about that. I have an Impulse 4G that isn't running CM so I have to use SetCPU with it. I didn't realize CM had that option. That must have cause the battery drain. SetCPU was conflicting with the CM settings.

[General Questions and Answers] SpencerRelly:
Hello xda, I have a bit of a problem:

I have a Samsung Exhibit which I rooted using the zergRush method found here on the forums. At first everything worked fine. But recently I was trying to push a modified system app to my phone using adb and it told me the action wasn't permitted. Checking the shell, and terminal emulator on my phone to see if I had superuser permissions failed. So I went about trying to root my phone again, which according to the zergRush script said was successfull, but checking the shell once again showed that I still did not have superuser permissions. I did a factory wipe of my phone in hopes of trying to get it to root again with no success. But here's the weird part, although it doesn't appear I have root access all my apps that require root access (titanium backup, my screenshot app, and some of widgetlocker's features) still fully function.....

Does anyone have any idea what's going on here? I would love my system folder access back :(

Thanks in advance.
[General Questions and Answers] Xontic:
Dumb question, but your H-Boot shows S-Off? Just covering the bases... Also, do you have Super User installed and functional?
[General Questions and Answers] SpencerRelly:
To be honest... I don't know what H-Boot or S-Off means. Pretty new to all of this. Mind giving me a walkthrough? I have superuser installed yes. It's granting programs superuser permissions. But I can't access su in terminal emulator or in the shell.
[General Questions and Answers] Xontic:
Well, I'm not the top tier technical person here, so I'm not exactly sure on how to get your problem resumed, since I've not heard of that. On the other hand, there might be a different way to accomplish what you are trying to do.

What are you trying to achieve, pushing a modified system app to do what and where? My suggestion, might be to just put it on your phone through USB to the root folder and then move it in ES File manager, or w/e you use. If all you are doing is pushing.

Obviously ADB shell detects your device, but I'm not sure why it is saying it doesn't have SU access. My other suggestion is to redo the ADB/Android SDK installs. I had a problem where I installed them wrong, by installing too much and ADB did not work properly. So, there might be a chance your phone is fine, but the ADB/SDK are not proper, somehow.

Let me know.
[General Questions and Answers] SpencerRelly:
If that were the case, and my phone was fine, wouldn't I be able to access super user through terminal emulator on my phone? Right now when typing su in terminal emulator, the pop up to grant superuser permissions appears but when you allow it to have su permission the # doesn't turn to a $ like it should. The more I think about it the more I think it's a problem with superuser. I've seen people talking about an update to superuser that can break your root? Mehhhh.
[General Questions and Answers] Xontic:
Seems like other have had this problem too... Not sure if a nandroid recovery will fix this, otherwise you might have to try to unroot, and then reroot.

Sorry, just might have to do a little more digging than I was able to. Good luck

What are the essential things i have to do now that it's rooted?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ctomgee:
You could have flashed a custom ROM withOUT rooting. Indeed, there are several custom ROMs that come already rooted.

EDIT: Sorry, ignore the above sentence. I'm mistaken. You need root. My bad.

Sorry, but in my opinion, you went backwards on this. You rooted for the sake of rooting, then wondered "what can I do now that I have root?", instead of rooting because you needed to do something that required root. But I digress, and I'll get off my soapbox now.

That said, several apps that require root that I like are DroidWall (control what apps can access the internet via 3g and/or wifi), SixAxis Controller (use a ps3 controller on your phone - great for emulators), AdAway (ad blocker), Chainfire 3D (for Tegra only compatible games), Root Explorer (essential for tweaking files in system folders), Startup manager (control what apps are allowed to start when the phone boots), Titanium Backup (backup/restore applications and their data, freeze apps), and SetCPU (undervolt/overclock/change governors/etc).
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] djg269:
First of all i rooted for the apps that need rooting like titanium and some other apps.

Second, indeed for flashing because i always thought it was essential. (saw your edit)

Third, i read some things about security issues (dataleaks fe.)and thought i had to root to solve them.

Maybe i'm totally wrong but as i said before there is so much info that its hard to pick the right things out of the topics.

Flashing roms two methods ODIN or CWM and now MOBILE ODIN .

If you want to flash a custom rom you read that roms install instructions no more and no less .

Most but not all custom roms are flashed via CWM

CWM requires root and CWM install .

Root + CWM .
