Still in Use? - Dell Venue

I'm just curious...
How many folks are still using their trusty Dell Venue? I had a Samsung Galaxy Note GT-N7000 but am selling it to pay for a Nexus 7 I bought, plus I wanted something smaller and more pocketable. I found my wife's old Venue in a drawer, charged it up, and re-flashed it to 408 and rooted it. Running like new! I've always loved this phone. Something about the build just really appeals to me.
I've got a new screen on order as the glass is cracked.
So how many of these things are still in service?

I'm using it still with 408 stock plus rooted

Looks like the 3 of us. We'll have a contest to see who lasts the longest.

We need a time. For the example, I'm visit this thread 1or 2 times at month

I'm using this phone from the past 3 years...

I’m using this phone for the last past year and a half, & will until he dies (which I secretely hope to never happen).

Are there any chances of updates???

you still need the usb cable to flashboot recovery first though...
once you got the custom recovery, then you can flash root ...

This ROM is making it very very tempting to do the N4 conversion. Arg, I don't know if I can keep waiting.

This is AOSP (straight from Google). The other N4 Conversion ROM is CyanogenMod 10.1. There is another Jelly Bean ROM, but that doesn't require the conversion because it is an International version from LG (stock).

Did the mod to the build.prop. The hardware keys do work but do not light up.
Also noticed that I can't add any other accounts (like exchange) other than Google.

Issues people are having after going back to stock, such as the camera not working on JB. It's not huge, but to me it means this conversion fundamentally and permanently changes something. I don't like that. I'll continue to sit on the sidelines and see hoe it plays out though.

V2 contains most of the fixes to make the keys work... Didn't do any testing on it so I'm not sure if the keys will light up or not.

I thought I saw someone say going back to a JB ROM after conversion worked, but only if you modified the build.prop to show as an e970.

Use the guide hpp posted and you can put the cwm file anywhere you want on the SD card I even have a folder named roms that I keep my mods in in cwm all you have to do is navigate to the folder using the volume keys then select the folder using the power button and then select the ROM/mod and flash it. Also aroma installers are the most customizable they let you select different bootanimations ect.
