i just downloaded rom manager , but seems a bit complicated at the mo ,
it also shows you can download and instal custom roms , has anyone tried this , and are they any good, as in can you get leedroid and gingerbread etc , im a bit wary of using it at the mo :o
 
I don't personally use it - I find it easier to download the ROMs from XDA and install them through Clockwork Recovery.
 
+4 Used to use it, but it seems better to just do everything through recovery (which is easy, famous last words :D )

also the roms it finds are outdated and even clockwork mod recovery it finds is

Actually the clockworkmod available from Rom manager is the last version compiled by the dev. All the others are by someone else, using his source

I have it installed as a general "just in case" given that I've got the room on my phone. If space was getting a bit tight, though, I'd most likely bin it.
 
Flashed as part of my rom. Never used it for ages. The last time was when I created an ext partition.......before I knew any better ;)
 
+11 rom manager is very unreliable and out of date. Believe me once you get the hang of flashing through recovery you'll realise just how easy it is so give it go!
 
I find it quite convenient for backups (or did I miss any shortcomings on behalf of rm?), but I agree that one should flash straight thru recover.
