I have been using android devices since the g1 was released. I rooted most of them and ran custom ROMs. For the past few months I have also been creating themes for ROMs, so I'm no stranger to modding.
I have flashed a few AOSP ROMs and really like what they provide but I'm having problems that I can't seem to fix.
Here's what I do when flashing a new ROM, these steps have worked on all Sense ROMs that I have tried:
* Wipe data/factory reset
* Wipe cache
* wipe Dalvik cache
* Flash ROM
* Reboot
I've tried the above steps with the below ROMs from both Amon_Ra and ClockworkMod recoveries. I never have any problems with Sense ROMs.
CyanogenMod 7
Opinion: Loved it
Problems I couldn't solve:
* 4G never gets enabled upon reboot despite enabling it before rebooting. 4G always gets enabled after rebooting on Sense ROMs - 3G is slower than dial-up in my area
What I tried: Toggling 4G manually and rebooting - no joy
Kings UNleashed GB-R3
Opinion: Loved it
Problem I couldn't solve:
* Upon reboot after flashing lots of apps force close and nothing happens when I tap the android to set up the phone
What I tried: Fixing permissions in recovery - no joy
Salvage Mod 1.2.1
Opinion: Loved it

I never get the apps force closing on CM7, but having to manually re-enable 4G is annoying enough to keep me off of this nice rom.
I would really like to run one of the above ROMs if I can get these problems solved. Does anyone have any advice about fixing any of these problems on any of these ROMs? Is there something special one needs to do before/when flashing an AOSP ROM?
