1. Yes, you can use it as long as you want
2. Which rom are you using?
3. You need to run android 2.3.x at least, because you need CWM 5.x.x.x to flash the latest custom roms
Here a useful thread where you'll find llots of info (How to root, install CWM 5.0.2.6 Fixed, flash a stock rom via Odin...and lots of tips )
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2313363

can you please kindly tell me which rom has a bugless? coz i have tried reading some of the custom roms even outside the forum ., some roms has a bug like camera ,wifi etc. all i need is a custom rom which is based on a stock rom but have changes or tweaks like removed the useless apps. im running on GB 2.3.4 and i want it to upgrade it to higher version but a stock rom with a tweak, because nothing beats a stock rom i guess ^^

You should have posted this in General Forum, not here.
Anyway, what do you mean by modify? If you are referring to the notification bar widgets and like, its no easy task my friend. Involves a lot of work.
y u don't use one of the custom mods, i use CM6 myself and it is imo the most stable rom out there,
if u just want to tweak ur stock rom i would recommend staying at 2.1. and tweak it a little with an OR, replacing and removing apps, overclocking etc.
afaik it does a little better wit multitasking, i would use it myself if it wouldn't miss so much features from CM...
hehehe a CM5 for milestone would be funny lol
if u are just looking for a guide
-factory reset
-flash 2.2.1 GOT release
-run OpenRecovery
-install CM update
-wipe cache and dalvik
or read this thread

I dont agree stock Froyo works fine so if u are looking for longer battery life just update u MM to this ROM.
I think little steps are better for beginner just get Open Recovery 3.3 root u phon maybe turn up u CPU speed

[Q] Question about ICS

Hello, what is the best ROM for ICS on Samsung Galaxy S? I'm fed up of stock ROM being slow and want something fast and want ICS I've never flashed before and downloaded "Onecosmic's ICS Port Android 4.0.3 RC2.11" but don't have a clue on how to start flashing it, as he hasn't made a noob tutorial
Any help would be appreciated.
How about trying teamhacksung's ICS port aka soon to be CM9 rom? Just follow the guide on the first page.

But I'm a noob :-( I don't even know how to root or put CWM on... what ROM would you recommend for noob like me, ICS one or CM7? I Just want something really fast that will make games smoother and that works fully....
Do you know how to flash a kernel via Odin? You will be rooted and have CWM automatically once you flash a custom kernel. I would recommend you to use a custom GB rom, as not all apps are compatible with ICS and more bug free.

oh ok.. is the standard CM7 the fastest ROM then?
In my opinion, no. Perhaps you would want to try the Simplicity rom.

[Q] Need for clarifications about installing custom ROM

Hi,
Just got my beautiful Note, installed Root and CWM using this method:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1329360
One thing is not totally clear in my head and I would you to clarify it because I don't want to make a mistake.
According to the rooting topic, I have a KKA kernel on my Note.
If I want to install a custom ROM, should I install a KKA ROM or can I install any custom ROM I want? For example XXLA6 or LA1 or anything else in ROM titles, so I'm not sure I can take any of these ROMs.
If anybody could guide me, it would be great.
Thanks for your help.

you can install whatever rom you want, because most (if not all) custom roms bring their "own" kernel with them (whatever kernel the dev choose for his build)!

Hi cistamlaka, be aware that it is your uncle's phone, not yours. So I would be very careful on rooting and upgrading to a different rom. If he is on a stock 2.3.3, I think (because I had it) there is an update to 2.3.6. It fixes a couple of lags.
If you root him the phone and push some new rom onto it, he might be confused because he will lose the TouchWiz and some applications. Check first with him, what applications (and if some Samsung-made) he uses and if he is okay to change the looks of the phone.
Isnt it right that he has only to download a file and change it to "update.zip" to flash it via stock recovery? A friend of me needs that file, is it the same to use as on sgs plus (i9001)?

the problem is that usb doesnt work (he will fix it) but the charging works.For update do I have to use kies or OTA if it is possible?

You have posted in the Wrong Section. Questions go in the Q & A Section. Read the Sections before you post or just understand it, buddy. Answering your question, first root your Phone. Second, flash CWM Recovery. This will allow you to install ROM's. Third, choose the ROM of your choice. It can be any Versions starting from 2.2 to 4.4(CM 9 to CM11). CM7 is the best and lag free for our Phones with Good Battery Backup when compared to CM9 & CM10
I guess u can easily to install custom rom, no need to update your software...
