About a week ago Virtuous G-Lite got a long awaited update. This has always been one of my favorite ROM's for the HTC G2/DZ. It's is very fast and very battery efficient. So if you feel that you can live without the eye candy, widgets and apps of Sense ROM's, I strongly urge you give it a try.
As those of you who have already seen the new G-Lite thread will know, tun4f1sh who is responsible for the excellent Bulletproof MIUI ROM on the G2/DZ has taken over as maintainer of Virtuous G-Lite from rmk.
We are pleased to welcome tun4f1sh to the Virtuous Team, he has been a long time supporter of our ROM's and we are very pleased to have him on board.
Features
-Supported on the G2 and DesireZ only.
-Minimalistic, lightweight ROM with +200MB of memory free at startup.
-/system and user partitions partitioned and aligned with ext4.

-Virtuous OC Daemon (wake: 245/998, sleep: 245/460) and memory optimizations. Kernel 2.6.35.14 Vision Gingerbread kernel. Do NOT use AOSP kernels with this ROM (i.e. Pershoot, Cyanogen).
-Market-sourced applications (Gmail, Maps, Voice, etc) automatically installed on first boot into /data/app for easy removal.
