Latest Custom Roms

I like Fresh 1.1 rom with Gumbo Kernel so far it good. However, my battery life still kind of weak from my opinion. I am moderate to heavy user with my phone. Not sure if others has good battery life with these custom ROM. I want to try other 1.5 ROM and compare the battery life and performance. Any one has try this and what is the limit of flash and wiping to new rom? Should I wait a day or two or even a week?

Don't try the MoDaCo for battery. Its about the same as Fresh 1.1 with Gumbo.

Do try it, just because though. I like it, good feel like stock.

However, changing to landscape mode on phone does seem to take slightly longer than the Fresh 1.1 rom, not too big a deal with me.

Ok, so lets say I want to do a wipe, which one do I select, the one that says data?
 
There's a new ROM posted at XDA called Pancake 0.1 that IMO is even faster than Fresh. I flashed it this morning and it screams. Some people say it's not battery friendly, but I'm not having that problem. I do have a glitch where my phone says unable to start Wi-Fi, but this appears to be an issue that is unique to me. I'm doing a wipe and a reflash as we speak, hoping that will cure it. The dev will customize it any way you ask him via XDA his thread or an IRC channel he's set up.

Actually, I had read that thread; it's where I learned of it and read through the XDA thread for more info. The one I put on my phone was Chocmatic's variation. I guess I should've included the link you posted, sorry. Having seen no mention of it within this thread, and thinking it might be of interest within this thread's context, is it bad form on my part to mention it here while a separate thread centered on Pancake already exists within the forum? If so, I apologize. BTW, I couldn't get Wi-Fi to work, I'm back to Fresh, so I guess it was all for nothing anyway. Still a newb, (hopefully) figuring things out as I go.

no harm no foul... with the number of new roms out there now it's hard to keep this thread updated... much less keep up with everything at XDA.. just think what it'll be like once 2.1 gets released..

This is true. I was gone for a weekend, and suddenly I was WAY behind on ROM's lol. I still haven't tried the newer ones out yet (too lazy :P)
 
I'm really close to try this new ROM but I'm going to stick with Pancake ROM. It's fast and some how my battery life is getting better. 10:00 PM Yesterday to 3:00 PM today battery at 80%. I did light surfing, texting and checking email. 30 minutes phone calls.
