Well....I finally flashed me a new rom guys. It took me so long. Im currently using the latest version of infected rom their nightly to be exact as of April 12th. Ill provide a link for all of my rooted evo 3d users...as its pretty difficult for us to find stable ROMS. I have to say the rom.lacks 4g but makes up with a custom kernel with major overclocking abilities. 1.8ghz to be exact I don't need it as I stay around 1.5 but to know its possible and stable is a weight off my shoulders.
Now let me stop rambling about my rom and speak in depth about rooting and flashing. Some iPhone users will argue what's the point of rooting and flashing? Well specifically for android users it offers the abilities to your device not usually offered. See, as far as my evo? It began selling directly before HTC inked the deal with beats audio so it missed the beats integration and many who purchased the device, were very upset. But through tweaks and those brave enough in the developer community they brought it to us. Other great options for rooting include the removal of that pesky bloatware, such as Facebook apps that aren't removable, and older unneeded apps such as blockbuster (which I'm not even certain if they are still in existence, are they?)  Aside from that rooting offers display changes, because we all know default carrier setups aren't always visually appealing are they?
I've had 3 android devices one from kyocera which happened to be a mid level device and two superphones from HTC ... Both of which I rooted and played with, pushed them to the limits and learned all that I can learn about them. Now do I know everything? No, but I try my best to learn a little everyday as it will always help me. Every time I flash a new rom, I feel like a young child, I'm so anxious to see what it can do, what is it missing and what could make it better. Is any rom perfect? No, every rom doesn't have everything and with alpha and beta releases the developers learn what they are missing, what's needs to be tweaked and what the users are searching for. There are ROMS for everyone. ROMS focused on battery life, ROMS focused on pure performance. This infected rom is a mix of those as it offers some great life, with the high clock power, beats integration and the removal of bloatware.
Don't get me wrong this isn't a review of this rom, its a slight break down of the open source of android and how we can all do what we please with it. Any one of us can develop a rom with the time and patience (and proper tools and programs of course) is it easy? I don't think so. Is it fun? I believe creating your own rom is definitely fun, as your customizing the use of your device, looking for what suits you best, this is where ios users have that disconnect not understanding the pure customization of open sourced systems. They believe that ios being closed is perfect the way that it is...its fine for what it is and it works for its users but I can understand from using both systems why its great to have the ability to build yourself.
