Are Unofficial ROM's Safe?
Sunday, 11:36 PM EDT
Hi,

I'm using a Bell Vogue and am very interested in upgrading to an unofficial rom as the bell one seems to be lacking. How safe(re: security) are Roms created by 3rd parties?

Can't 3rd parties install keyloggers and other crap into the ROM without me knowing?
Are there any other privacy/security risks?

In addition if I were to upgrade to the latest Radio to EVDO Rev-A will Bell start charging me? I currently have the 7$ unlimited mobile browser.

Thanks.
