Root [HELP!] ROM flash unsuccessful and now don't know what to do!!

After a successful (finally!) ROM flash its all gone a little bit wrong.

Getting multiple force closes on various processes after 24hrs of up time. These force closes happen every 3-5 seconds and make the phone completely unusable.

android.process.acore is the most common FC but also getting HTC specific ones like people (although that appears to have stopped since I deleted the Facebook account from the phone).

Not sure what to do now....

try doing a wipe data/factory reset in recovery.
sounds like you flashed a rom earlier without fully wiping the device user data first
 
this is a desire and not a desire hd right? just i notice you have desire hd under your avatar
also make sure the file you have is the normal one and not the CDMA

when you use estrongs/root explorer can you see and sd-ext folder and does it have data in it?

Yep, original Desire. I have an HD but I'm trying to flash my GFs Desire to fix the low memory warnings. Definitely have the GSM ROM.

estrongs/root explorer?

they are file explorer apps from the market. You can browse to the sd ext folder as Rastaman has said

As it keeps FCing every couple of seconds its proving impossible to search on the Market.

I'm wiping all data, cache and dalvik, then reflashing the ROM. See what that does.
 
Just try wiping and flashing teppics rooted stock rom (froyo or gb), from over at xda. Restore missing apps only, no system settings or data from titanium and see how that runs for a few days. (it has a2sd+) support.

Tried that as well!! Teppic's ROM got stuck on the white/green HTC boot screen for over 45 minutes. I figured nothing was happening. I didn't even get the "quietly brilliant" bit under HTC which seems to mean its stuck.

You can always remove the SD card and put it in a normal reader to create the partition. (As long as you have an micro SD adapter of course)

Yeah, don't have an adapter, but after many attempts and fiddling around I got it working.

Decided against reflashing the Cool3D ROM as I don't think the hardware is quite up to it.

Went for RevolutioN instead, but typically after putting all the work in my GF doesn't like it due to its blue colour scheme and differences to the notification bar icons (battery, WiFi etc)

Could some one recommend a ROM that looks identical to a stock release Gingerbread BUT also contains Sense 3 elements? She's obsessed with the Sense 3 weather animations and lock screen!!

Thanks
 
Getting good at this now! First attempt book me all day and got it wrong.

Flashed insert coin yesterday in about an hour and so far its really smooth. Created a 1.5gb ext4 so it never runs out of space.

May have a crack at my DHD now, if only to try and improve the battery life.
