Root Rooted, but not for me.

Well, I have rooted my Desire and installed some of the most popular ROMS (not at the same time :D ), but after 2 weeks of a new look and a few intersting features, I have decided to go back to my original RRU ROM. I tried it and didnt brick my phone ( thanks to excellent tutorials ) but I guess I like things "original". Respect where respect is due to the developers of the modded ROMS.

So you are not having a problem with the small internal memory? Is that even possible?

I'm not a hardcore user and guess I was just using different ROMS for the "appearance" aspect rather than the other benefits that to be honest may have been too advanced for me (christ I must be getting old ) No idea what the superuser thing was. I was using iNsert GB but found that it wouldnt turn the phone off, just reboot, so decided to reroot to it's original state.

Nothing ventured, nothing gained.

I too venture back to stock when I get bored of being rooted. The only reason I root is to help with battery life. Having extra space is nice, and I do find I put more pointless apps on the phone but if I were to keep it to the minimum I use then I'd easily live with a stock ROM. Hence why I'm looking at the Sensation as it does what I want it to.

Just not yet as there seem to be issues with it :D

Oh okay, well Superuser just manages your su-right, i.e. allowing which apps have root access and which don't.
Btw you can flash a rooted stock rom if you should ever have problems with internal memory ;)
