Root Is A Galaxy S Worth Flashing?

[AceAndroid]

As the title says, Is it worth flashing a Samsung Galaxy S with a Custom rom like darky`s 7.5?

What really are the benifits over a stock 2.2 rom?

I found it more important when the official 2.2 update wasn't out. Everyone was jumping from 2.1 to 2.2. Now it's 2.2 to 2.2.1.

The main reason was getting rid of unwanted apps, freeing up more ram, inbuilt lagfixes etc, custom home screens, custom CPU speed profiles etc. All in all and this is really this is just my opinion; It's not worth the hassle. Root+lagfix and you should be happy enough.

Im very much a hardcore epic geek lmao

I have played around with a mates Samsung Galaxy S with Darky`s 7.0 flashed and I can`t beleive how fast and well it work, just not played around with a stock Samsung Galaxy S so I don`t really know the differance.

I know Darky`s rom does inprove a lot of things like battery drain, gps fix and other thing tho

when u get bored of your old firmware and u need some changes is worth...but if u want performance...stability or security use stock firmware

What are you going on about? Darky`s rom is faster then the stock rom so if i want performance I would choose Darky`s rom

Have you tried Darky`s rom yet?

Darky's rom is well worth it.

I flashed it last night (7.6) (first time flashing a custom rom) and I'm simply blown away. I was originally running official 2.2 with the One Click Lag Fix, but decided to take the plunge into the XDA world last night, and I'm so glad I did.

I would highly recommend anyone to go for it, its very simple and took me about 15 mins.

It feels like a new phone, seriously!

I've tried Darky's Gingerbread Edition ROM 7.6 and it is very fast indeed, I love it.

I thought it installed a lagfix, but it didn't, and it was blazingly fast!
