Thread Moved to Q&A and Closed
All threads like this get closed due to the fact that so many cause arguments between members.
This happens as different members will prefer a certain ROM while other members will prefer another. As we all have different preferences as to what we like in a ROM, this is a question which no one else can truly answer on your behalf.
To find out which ROM is most suitable for you, simply test them out for yourself. That way, you will be able to know which you prefer and may even find that you like a ROM which you didn't expect.
Also, before making any threads in future, please post them in the correct section (after searching for your answer first).

As above I made a thread in thee development section and got 1 response but now can't find it anywhere? It was of asking what the best ROM for of is. If Anyone can help.
Thanks
Best rom for? Try roms out. It is the best way to find a rom that you like since a rom is down to personal preference. If you want to know what I'm running then I've got CM7 RC2 with CM7 hboot

My desire. Have you any idea how my thread has just gone?
Thanks
Either:
- Deleted as that sort of thread does NOT go in Development, or;
- Moved to Q&A
Your thread as been deleted.
Reason: "as per the sticky about posting non-dev in development"
Please try to keep up with the rules

XDA "Mantra"Post What Where:
General - general technical discussion items, news, anything else that does not fit into the other fora categories.
Q&A (Questions and Answers) - all questions, irrespective of type, get posted in here whether they be theme related, accessory related, technical, etc.
Accessories - any items to do with components and/or accessories relating to your device.
Rom Development - only meant for very advanced technical discussion directly related to ROM development activity and the delivery of actual ROMs and ROM components ONLY. Nothing else goes in here.
Themes & Apps - anything to do directly with the development of themes and/or applications. Nothing else goes in here.
EDIT: BEFORE POSTING ANY THREAD IN THE DEVELOPMENT SECTION, PLEASE READ THE FOLLOWING:
If you have developed a ROM, or are working with others to do so, the development forum is somewhere to discuss and share ideas, post useful feedback and logs or crash dumps, and to discuss a common goal developers are trying to achieve.
It is NOT the place to post your question because it gets higher traffic, or because more experienced users frequent it. Doing this just annoys those who are working on the device, and drives them away. Developers don't want to wade through 20 threads of "Help me urgently" to find their threads for porting and fixing camera issues etc. Similarly, if a thread is designated as discussion for developers say, porting a camera fix, please do not post in there asking "When will it be ready?", "Can I flash this yet?" etc. This is both completely disrespectful to those working on the project (you evidently haven't read the important posts in the thread), and also is making it harder for developers to find comments from other developers or testers when required.
Similarly, don't make loads of "Thanks for your work here" posts in an active development thread. It's just as annoying to developers as asking when something will be ready. If a ROM is complete, then go ahead and thank the developer if you wish, but don't go into threads for devs only, and interrupt it to post "thanks". It's basically spamming, and is treated as such.
If you are posting in development, you should have read every sticky and notice there, and should be actively developing or helping in the development of something. Developing isn't installing a ROM, or using a tweak, it's creating a ROM or other hack or tweak. If you haven't read for several days before starting out on XDA, you are likely about to ask something already solved. I registered on XDA when I first wanted to post, and that was to join in a discussion on something. Sure, join up and ask a question, but read the information available in General and Q&A first, as your question will have been asked before. Search is your friend here, become familiar with it.
Regarding when to post in development if you are not actually developing something, there is one occasion where it's acceptable. If you find a leak of a new ROM, which isn't already posted, and you verify it's legitimacy via either running it, or based on the source you obtained it from, then this is assisting in development, and should be posted in development. If you want to ask when a leak will be available use search first, then if not already in discussion, open a thread in general or Q&A.
If you have a problem flashing a ROM, this is NOT related to development. It's up to you to determine if it is specific to a particular ROM, and post useful information in that developer's existing thread for the ROM. If it happens on more than one ROM, and isn't a known issue (remember you should read several times more words than you post), then find out what you are doing wrong. Check guides written by others, try to repeat the problem and see if it happens every time. Something needs to be reproducible to be fixed effectively.
Once you have identified what you need help with go to the device Q&A forum (general if device lacks one), and make a clear, informative thread that explains the issue, and what you have tried doing to fix it. Did you re-download the ROM? Did you ask a friend to flash it for you, to reduce chance of user error? What steps (exactly) did you follow? What errors did you see (exact wording)? Did you double check all the steps? Did you do a wipe or hard reset?
If you make a clear, concise, yet detailed post, you will find help forthcoming, and should get the problem sorted very quickly. If someone suggests you try something, report back on what happened, did it work etc. Then, next time someone has this issue and searches, they will find this and have a verified and tested solution.
So remember... before you start a thread in development, ask yourself what you are developing. If you can't answer, then stop, step away from the post button, and think about where you are posting. Would it be better in General or Q&A, or is some more time with your best friend, search, required?
Can we please keep this forum tidy? There are lots of people who like to have stock ROM phones. So many posts regarding non-standard ROM issues get posted in the General sub-forum it becomes tiresome.
So:
If it's a non-stock ROM issue, put your query in the Android Development sub-forum.
If your phone is stock ROM, the General sub-forum (here) is the place to post.
Thanks.
But, but, but, but people with less than 10 posts can't post there, so it becomes their right to clutter the other sections in any way they like, because they're new and innocent and sweet and cuddly and don't know what a search button is...
That's the reason why i post in every threat .

That's not how it works. This is a developers forum; posts about development go in the development subforum, any other posts (queries, discussions, tips, tricks, etc, regardless of the software you're running) go here in the general subforum.
From the 'Mandatory rules for development' sticky in the development subforum:
broncogr said:
THIS FORUM IS ONLY FOR RELEASING AND DEVELOPING ROMS AND KERNELS.
SOME GUIDES REGARDING S-OFF AND FLASHING WILL BE ALLOWED BUT MOST WILL BE LINKED IN A REFERENCE THREAD
keep the development forum CLEAN! No offtopic posting and no questions.
Use the report button in an offending post to let us mods know we need to take action. Dont take matters into your own hands!!!
Sources need to be posted for all kernels!!!
You need to use TAGS like [ROM] or [KERNEL] and so on as used in all dev forums throughout XDA
Any disputes between developers should be handled by pm. No public posting in a dev thread regarding these matters
Rom issues should be discussed within their respective threads
Thread titles should ALWAYS coincide with ROMS ALREADY AVAILABLE FOR DOWNLOAD!!! No advance notification of incoming ROM through thread title. A changelog for the yet unreleased Rom can be included in the OP or in another post CLEARLY MARKED as EXPECTED CHANGELOG
Posting in the development section means automatic ACCEPTANCE of the above Rules
All posts that are NOT about ROM development, or development in general will be closed or deleted and posters that will choose to disregard the previous guidelines will be infracted.

I agree 100% with hopscotchjunkie.
This forum is supposed to be the "untidy" forum, with all questions/queries etc. posted about the phone, stock ROM or not.
Android Development should only contain three types of threads, [DEV], [ROM], [TUT], or other threads that further the development on the platform (i.e. new kernels or whatever).
I dont think it matters how much is customised, but the base version is critical to be psoted for anyone installing 3rd party kernels or various other customisations... not sure why this isnt being posted without having to dr who it up and dig and search what ROM it spawned from, and then find out what that rom is based off.... just post the damn base and carry on, I'd gladly support it
OP Thanks for your feedback....Now please read the forum rules on posting, moved from the Development Section to here, Thank You, Sir.

Q Why a special Q&T Thread for a specific ROM??
A The bigger a ROM development thread gets, the greater the chance that posts are being placed in this thread that are not related to the ROM development itself, e.g. problems with flashing, installation, bugs, things not working etc. However this is understandable, it's not according to the guidelines of XDA for Development sections. Therefore the main goals of the ROM specific Q&T threads is to avoid this cluttering of the original develpment thread with these OT posts by redirecting the posters to the ROM specific Q&T thread and also to relieve the developer from answering these post, so he can dedicate his time to developing.
Q Where can I download these ROM's and How do I install?
A You can find the links to download and installation instruction here or here .. Pay close attention to this post, everything required for a successful flash is listed right here. If you fail to follow the instructions or meet the requirements for installation, you could run into some problems.
Q How’s battery life?
A see this question asked repeatedly across all ROMS. Honestly there is no way to give you an answer based on a ROM. There are too many variables in question and results vary from user to user and device to device. Battery life is going to depend on age and condition of your battery, your use habits with your device, installed apps, tweaks, settings, etc...
Q How do I...
A Ask your questions and report your issues in this thread. You will receive a response and hopefully get you back up and running this ROM to its fullest
