U know once the mention of custom rom, anything about reliability is invalidated right? It only means that stock rom made the phone not reliable. So go to HTC and tell them that they rigged their phones to fail. If you keep telling the world your phone is reliable and you have to do mods that 90% of the buyers do not, then its pointless fact.

My el cheapo Xiaomi nearing 3 years with stock rom and still in use is reliable. Thats a fact.

U mean the millions of android users that buys android phones MUST flash new roms inside to make their phones to make it useful? And should u even need to pay RM3000 for a phone that you need to flash new rom inside so it can be classified as useful? Buddy, the majority of users are on whassap and games. These roms does nothing for them. Your main complaint is the software never met your needs. So you are only 1 guy out of 10000 other guys who does not need anything unusual for their phones. (I'll save it for the people who uses roms as their bragging rights).

It if improves the phone usability, yes that i agree. But reliability? No seriously? You are merely changing the look and feel of software. Try some roms that clock your processor higher and see if its reliable or not?

Not really a problem since you can install anti virus for it.
