A quick review on LeeDroid ROM.

Running with it for about two hours, boot animation is changed, screen unlock and lock animation changed, light green color on top and bottom of tab (as indicator as reaching top and bottom of page while scrolling), smoother home screen navigation, smoother screen change (during setting / application exit), % shown in battery widget on notification bar, advance menu for power off button, more free memory (average 114-116mb as compared to my previous stock rom time, with average of 88-92mb)

Charging my phone now and shall report more after test on other features and further monitoring.

1. s-off with rooting will void your warranty
2. if you manage to install custom rom, so you'll be able to install stock rom as well (as in to revert back to stock)

@maxgenesis: here's an updated guide on Guide to S-off, Installing ClockWork, PermRoot, SuperCID & Flashing(noobproof)

hope it helps and you may want to stick it at 1st page.

the charging issue is caused by cwm recovery, either you wait for a patch for that or just avoid draining you battery only charge it (the charging isnt perform while the phone is off).

i am on my 2nd charge cycle after flashing to custom rom and i have no problem with charging issue (as i never go beyond when my battery hits the last 15%)

btw, after achieved s-off and root, just need to run the RUU (exe file) of asian rom and whoalla, you're back in stock rom.

@chaossixth: you got PM. btw, why do you want to back to stock rom? care to share your reason?

care to share what bugs / issue is discovered? a brief review or update is very much appreciated.

ARHD ROM (Sense version) user, please update me the sense version. sense 2.1 or 3.0? Any user review or update to share? i will post my review on LeeDroid ROM later tonite.

Brief update on LeedRoid ROM:
Pros:
Improved battery life, smoother interface while starting and exit application, sense hardly crash and restart, % on battery icon

Cons:
Laggy when updating / installing application from market, mail widget take longer time to access to mail application

LeeDroid is currently working on a patch as current version is beta release. Happy flashing mates! =)

bro, care to explain what differs if you s-off unofficially now and flash with custom rom with s-off officially and flash with custom rom?

thanks for the clarifications.

whoever root their phone knows the risk and clear that rooting will void warranty. there is one question to htc, if they unlock the bootloader (official s-off), so end user is granted with root access. what if the user screw the coding and brick the phone, will it be still cover under warranty?

Correct. that is why i wonder after htc unlock the bootloader, how are they going to control / verify those unit which is valid for warranty.

in my humble opinion, no worries about official or unofficial s-off.. as long as you're 100% clear with that you're doing and be RESPONSIBLE for what you did then it is alright. Read and understand before any action cos none of us wanna brick our lovely toy! =)

muahaha, downloading it now.. been waiting for the whole nite last nite for the release.. gonna update tonite after work!

yet to try other rom (ARHD, RcMix, Virtuous etc), 1st time flashing so trying on the available rom now =)

"Added OC Support up to 1728MHz" thou not mentioning whether it is done via which method. bro you're running on ARHD rom (sense or without sense) rite? any review on it?

it's all about give and take on certain function or feature (at this moment) since developers are still working to improve their rom. shall update leedroid 1.1 tonite from current 1.0. just cant wait to try the improved version.

Appreciate all your hardworks contributed bro!

bro believe you're running on v.1.1 which supports overclock, care to share it is thru setcpu or o/c daemon?

thanks for the update.. just about to start flashing v.1.1 hehe.. now gonna download kernel v.1.2 but couldnt open the download link.. all jammed up i guess??

EDIT:
flashed with leedroid v.1.1. it is butter smooth interface..semi transparent application menu, advanced quick setting menu (added auto rotation, vibration mode, silent mode, brightness control, volume control), advance power option.

currently ftp download link for leedroid v.1.1 kernel v.1.2 is down.. shall download tomorrow morning and flash it to fix camera flash issue and few other improvements.

shall report with battery performance after a day or two, yet to try the over clocking as that is not my concern since stock clock speed serve me well. cheers mate!

+1 for the kernel v.1.2

tested mine, flash is working for camera! bravo!

just flash the kernel in cwm recovery, dont have to flash the rom again.

btw, according to leedroid developer, there might be another release for kernel update "tonite" at their timezone =)

--EDIT--
ARHD Rom users, v.1.1.4 is released. one of the update is camera flash is fixed but yet to see the download link

super wipe is not necessary if you're upgrading on ARHD Rom, if you migrate from other ROM, super wipe is a must!
