Its good you got your device unlocked and rooted, but lets not turn this thread into a ROM comparison thread
What rom would people recommend for the htc one mini? I have also rooted my mini but have left it stock. Thinking of the magio rom but might wait for the 4.3 update to be incorporated into it first.
Thanks for that. I will download and try. I was going to use Titanium Backup to backup apps and app data and then restore when the new rom is flashed.(will do a nandroid backup of stock first)
Is that the best way to restore apps+data and contacts/messages etc... or is there something better out there. Thanks for help. Much appreciated. Relatively new to all this!!
Titanium Backup is your best bet for backup and restore of USER apps, restoring a "missing" system app to a new ROM is NOT a good idea, especially if the backup is from an odexed stock rom.
Your contacts are synced to your GMAIL account, so no need to backup, but if you want to have a copy, export to vcf format from contacts settings, manage contacts menu.
For SMS, i'd recommend either Super Backup : SMS & Contacts, or SMS Backup & Restore - both are available free from Play Store....
4.3 isn't that bad, better than 4.2.2, but poor in comparrison to kitkat 4.4.2 - sooo sweet!
Oh, I'd advise downloading deodexed ROMs
