    Root Does adding custom roms corrupt android?

    Hello. Is installing custom roms bad for android? On my last two 'upgrades', I get a severe reduction in performance & I'm pulling my hair out over it.

Why is it not possible to do this online on the motoblur login page? I read that I need to take it to a carrier, but then I read they can't do it!? A...
