The advantages are the included extra software (o2 plus advance, o2 phone plus, jeyo sms backup, code wallet pro 5, world mate 2005, etc....BUT those files are available elsewhere. Also an updated Wireless Manager. Many downsides including screen flickering problems, reported by many users with a certain range of build date. Some are not able to fix the screen issue even by reverting back to the original rom...

Exec rom is certainly better and if someone could fix the screen issue that would be awesome. My Atom locked up on me yesterday and I had no choice but to take the battery out :evil:, its a damn hassle actually not worth the headaches. Im guessing most people will revert back to the original rom.

What's the hazzle?

1. Do a backup with Sprite or similar.
2. Revert to original ROM.
3. Upgrade to Exec ROM again.
4. Restore backup.

Yes, it does take a while (maybe an hour), but that's user input four times, all in all a whopping two minutes or so...

For me it is a hassle and the positives do not warrant the time spent reflashing and wasting time, yesterday XCPUScaler released new version overclock app that is now listed as compatible with xda atom and exec I have had it running since yesterday without lock up or crash, for me this is a more viable solution :wink:

To each his own, I guess. I have been running the Exec ROM since the reflashable version of the latest one came (gotta be 2-3 weeks now) and I haven't had any significant problems and without having to do any reflashes.
