Root Who's Still Flashing?

[DC E1G]

Hey all,

I haven't been around here much at all in the past year or so, but when I first got my Desire I was here all the time and many people here provided me with awesome help and suggestions. So I was just wondering, for those of you who are long time Desire owners (I've had mine since it was released in Canada), and who still use their Desire as a daily device, do you still flash many ROMs?

I say this because I haven't flashed a new ROM in nearly a year. Not because there isn't anything out there, but because I find the new ROMs for the Desire look like they just aren't as reliable as the good ole Oxygen Gingerbread ROM I've been running. If you are still flashing, what are you running?

Cheers

DC

I would agree with your sentiments. I was using Oxygen 2.3.2 for about 9 months but fancied a change. I tried a few including Miui ROMs & redux2 but kept coming back to themed versions of oxygen. Currently very happy with an edited version of Lynx 3.2.

TBH apart from a brief experiment with an ICS ROM (few hours) and a couple of days with MildWild Oxygen I've been running dGB all year. I do occasionally think I should try something different, mainly if I find my space running low (currently around 60MB, anything less than 50 I feel twitchy with), but it's not got severe enough for me to actually do it

There's a bit of me thinks I should give a proper try to ICS at least, see how it's come on on the Desire. But I'm pretty busy ATM and the phone is working fine without, so it's not happened so far.

I'm still flashing, currently running a JB rom (Elk's on XDA) but he has discontinued development. Apart from the camera it works well and am not considering changing.

I am considering jumping ship to the Nexus 4 though...

If it came with 48GB rather than 16 I'd be very tempted. I can't live with 16GB

Yeah storage is a potential concern but I don't store lots of music or movies on my phone and with Dropbox and Google Drive handling stuff I should be OK, especially as Dropbox will automatically upload new camera shots

Hey coming from the Desire it just wouldn't be fun if you didn't have to find a storage workaround

I still flash roms. I've been using Sandvolds ICS rom for a while and i'm really impressed with the work that had been done.

Used to, settled on Mildwild V5 and think it's great. My wife has now "acquired" my HTC Desire so I dare not mess with it any more.
