Hello,

I was wondering if there is a lot of difference between a ROM running sense 2.1/3.0 (like RCMix or InsertCoin) and a gingerbread ROM running the old/normal sense (Like Leedroid 3.0.7)?

What's your experiences?

Did you change or install anything? I get quite a disappointing battery life with v45
I turn wifi off when i leave my house, put 3g on when needed(around 9 hours a day). pocket mode disabled and the option above it aswell(don't know it in english, have the dutch one) but the one that turns the volume down when picking the phone up, no auto-sync and that's it, but if you still have battery drain, you should change your radio and RIL to the ones it baadnwz.com's addons it has drastic effects;)
Hope i helped you
Btw v45 drains little bit more
v46,47 drain a lot and are buggy as hell,i don't advise you to use those:p

I tried InsertCoin for a while, but found that it was a little slow and also drained a bit more battery.

Switched to Oxygen now, got great battery life.

I'm on Cool Kingdom v7 (Sense 3.0) now. Flashed it 2 days ago along with my first ext4 partition:D
Used Oxygen for a long time but fel in love again with HTC Sync and skin.
Cool Kingdom is offcourse much laggier than Oxygen with is very very quick. Also the battery get's quite hot when using it (probably because overclocking). Must say the battery life is not as good as in Oxygen, wich i also wasn't expecting, but it is virtually thesame as in HTC Stock Froyo which I was running before rooting my phone 8 months back.
