I have a rooted Defy+, from which I already removed all the cruft I don't need. I am mostly happy with the phone, but there are a few quirks which are making me consider changing to a custom ROM to get a more recent Android version (rather than Gingerbread, 2.3.6).

Custom ROM comparison 13 weeks 18 hours ago

I am anxious to try to improve the performance of my TF700 by installing a custom ROM. It just occurred to me that I should ask if using my keyboard dock will have any problems with custom ROMs. Can someone recommend Jelly Bean (4.1.x or 4.2) ROMs that won't prevent use of the dock? Also, if I start using custom ROMs, how hard is it to revert back to the stock Asus ROM?
