Custom rom?

[Guest heavyduty00]

what do Custom roms actually do lol?

are they supposed to make your device faster ( significantly) and is that it?

I installed hungarian hedgehog on my tft san francisco yesterday and its basically same as my stock orange rom but maybe a bit faster ( not really noticeable)

And how do i delete apps from the custom rom which i dont want?

Is it hard if i wanted to change my current rom to a rom which just has all orange apps removed like this one:

custom roms are usually just customized stock roms (although though some like CyanogenMod are totally built from source) so they have speed hacks and tweaks and features and apps removed or added to make the user experience easier or just nicer

you can remove any apps from your phone with titanium backup (including the orange junk) and it's pretty easy to change to the rom you linked to just install ClockworkMod Recovery (better use 2.5.0.9) and then use that to make a backup of your stock rom and then wipe it and flash zip from the no junk rom

cool so custom roms are worth it then?

would a custom rom be better then just a rom with orange apps removed from in performance wise etc ( noticeable performance)

thanks

how do you backup everything on ur phone on titanium backup instead of backing up every single app each time lol?

Press menu and choose batch

That would depend on what had been optimized on the individual rom however I would assume that it would be just as fast if not faster otheriwse what would be the point? :) I've noticed some speed gains just by using Titanium backup to remove all the junk.

I'm kind of wondering the same thing. I'm using the stock orange rom with a LOT removed using Titanium and various other things disabled in Autostarts.

I'm really aiming for Froyo but I'm reluctant to install that until the touchscreen occasionally freezing on wake issue is resolved. I'm wondering if there's any particular benefit in the meantime in using a custom 2.1 rom if I've already sorted my own one out?

you see I'm getting that freezing on wake using 2.1 ;) doesent happen often but whne it does it's a real pain to have to take the back cover off and remove the battery sand then wait for it to boot up again... :)
