Which ROM ???

How do i choose a suited ROM for my desire S ?
There are so many.
It depends on the IMEI or something else ?
Also , whats a "prerooted" ROM ( different from "normal" ROM ? )
Grts

Answer to your last question: a pre-rooted ROM is a custom ROM which already provide root access. If you're unfamiliar to the term root, you should do a little more reading before flashing a custom rom to your device.

Just ensure that you've read through many of the threads available to anyone on this forum, and you'll have a smooth sailing through the seas of custom ROMs.
Your IMEI number doesn't matter.
Try Endymion, it's probably the best (personal opinion) Sense based ROM in the development section.

Loving my Desire S since rooting and flashing a custom ROM, like a new phone

Flinnys CM 11 alpha 3. Very fast and stable after my opinion. There are just some bugs with the camera(video) and bluetooth but check it out anyways.

Hello guys i didnt want to create a new thread.
My mother has a Desire S and is absolutely casual user, the only thing that is important is long battery life and that all features work (No ROMs with Camera bugs and so on pls)
She does not need Tablet Features and whatsoever.
Currently her phone runs MIUI 2.### which is a battery eater and quiet strange.
Do you have any ROM to suggest? Just a very stable, reliable Android with much battery life?
Thx for your help !

Hey guys!
Just got a second-hand Desire S.
I am looking for am advice about a custom ROM with Sense.
What is the highest version of Android with the highest version of Sense available? The best would be: Sense 5.5 with Kit-kat I think.
Any suggestions? Would like a "stable" version if possible.
Ty.

[Q] about roms :d

hi everyone
i have Galaxy tab plus , nd i want to ask you about roms
are there roms ? i didn't see any rom in forum
i don't want stock rom , i want from developer :d
and if there not , when will be realsed ?
best regards

The device is rooted though which is the biggest thing.
But we don't have many devs yet... And since we are getting ICS *very* soon it's kind of waste of the devs time to work on a custom rom for honeycomb

So what features you are expecting from modified ROMs?

[Q] what is the best rom in my case ?

Hi !
I'm new android user and I started using galaxy tab 2 months ago . Many members advice to install a custom rom in order to get batter battery life wich is my biggest problem ! I saw many people talking about rom with kitkat version , some said that its a good one with good tweaks etc .. and other said that it has a big ram and battery usage .. so I felt so confused !
Another member advice me to install slim rom ! I actually found oldest version too like 4.2.x and 4.3.x but I'm still confused since I'm an amateur user .
After looking to many threads on this forum , I recognize that cm10.2 is the best one according to members .
All what I'm looking for is a rom with good battery life and good ram usage ! Any suggestion ?

I recommend [ ROM ] - Dhollmen Rom KIT-KAT 4.4.2 AOKP - 2014 03 04. It has great battery life and performance.:good:

Thanks dude but I hate ROM running kitkat

Generally speaking the faster ROM's are the ones that have been stripped back to the bare essentials such as Lineage or similar. It's difficult to say which is the fastest Rom because everyone claims theirs is fastest but it very much depends on what apps you add to your phone. So there is no perfect answer i'm afraid.
