I know this is a long list of demands, but I would like mainly to have phone, texting, internet, a gyrator-type software, a better contact list and phonebook, as well as a few other things. I am hoping someone can direct me to some ROM's that are not too complex, this thing eats battery life as it is, and maybe share their experiences.

Cheers!

Then start reading the individual threads for the different available roms. All your questions are answered many times over, but it does take some initial reading on your part, as well as some trial and error.

Enjoy.
