My first custom ROM that I installed on my WFS was
WildChild 3.3. It installed beautifully via the instructions in the thread over at XDA-dev, but that's about where I stopped liking it.
I had become accustomed to Sense, and WC3.3 just wasn't as polished - it looks almost amateur, but I could be wrong on that because a.) I'm new to the ROM crowd, and b.) I'm old and resistant to change
The "Personalize" option under settings does nothing but return me to the home screen. I can see nothing in logcat that would cause this.

)
Second, the file manager with the file cabinet and stylized "R" icon FC'd every time I tried to use it, so I uninstalled it. I don't remember the name, though.
Ringtone never saves - every time I choose a ringtone, it saves it. It's even still chosen if I double check, and after rebooting. when a call comes in, however, it switches to the "Restore" ringtone.
Contacts aren't saved. I haven't quite tracked down exactly when they're disappearing, but they are. The only contacts that don't get erased are the ones stored on the SIM.
And the final straw happened tonight - I had the stopwatch running in the default desk clock, timing my chicken on the grill. I had Pandora streaming in the background, and I was browsing the Google Play store looking for the app that showed battery drain per app (I never did find it). The phone locked up hard - the screen was still on, but my wireless signal dropped to 0, 0 bars on carrier signal, and no buttons would respond, even after 5 minutes. I had to remove the battery, which isn't easy in an Otterbox case.
I'm switching ROMs tonight. I'm leaning towards RobotoMod, but I just found MIUI, so now I have to choose. Oh boy.
