I have to agree with that, i think 4.1 might be even better then the 3.4 version which i been using for a while because there was nothing like it until he released 4.1

So, can anyone give a summary of what ROM's are the most popular, supported, and have the most balaced feature set. I don't need everything extremely stripped down because I dont expect to ever run out of space on the flash drive. On the other hand I don't want so many things preloaded the ROM runs slower than stock. Something with a similar number, but some more useful, programs than the stock rom would be fine. If a clean ROM is currently the standard then I guess I need to find cabs for pdf, office, java, opera, etc which is sort of a pain.

Also, I don't know all these terms like Manila and Rhodium and it seems like they are thrown around like they should. I dont see much explanation of what is different between various ROMs. That Juicy ROM looks popular but there is no explanation of how it differs from other ROMS by what it includes. Also, I never used a kitchen. Is that complicated, do I have to learn some command lines or edit some ini type file with great understanding of what I am doing and poor documentation to assist me? Will that run ok in Vista? Can someone just give a short explanation of the most popular roms and how they are different from eachother? If you have your own ROM and it is not popular but you would like to promote it, sorry, I am probably not your guy as I dont have the time to remain on the scene and update every week. I need something that has been vetted and I can run for 2-3 months+ and will still be around then for me to update.

P.S. I am on Sprint.

Sprint here as well. ROMs tend to be like an old pair of shoes. They are perfect for you. You'll never throw them away. But I wouldn't wear them with 4 pair of odor eaters and magic laces. Point is, join FA (Flashaholics Anonymous), flash your phone until something "clicks".

I'm waiting on Silence's newest with TP2 Rhodium, but until then Juicy's 6 is very good. So I have two pair of shoes.

Yes MerdinH and the rest all make excellent rom's. What you use differs with each person. I like to use RSTG's rom's cause his have more of what I would put in a rom plus in my use it has proven to be the most stable and reliable.

merdins 4.1 thus far has been extreamly stable I have tried to break it and so far for what I do and what I expect of my phone this rom is extreamly fast durable and responsive.

If the shoe fits!

I have been using Scott's kitchen/ROMs for the most part only because I am stuck with a gimped memory VZW Touch Pro and his ROMs are pretty damn quick and stable.

This weekend I tried JD's kitchen so I could try the latest build of WinMo 6.5 and have been really surprised by it. I have not had any major issues with it and plan on using it for a while or until I get bored of it. It runs the titanium today very nicely and the start menu is much smother than expected.

Merdin, all the way. Version 4.1 is the best Rom I have put on my phone in a long time.
