Install roms without root

I have been wondering if there's a way to install roms without root.. if there's a way.. then can someone help me with it! ? Please give me all steps... Thanks!!

Are you trying to not have root after you install the rom(no in most cases since most roms are rooted), or do you want ot install without rooting first? (yes, it can be done if you are on jfd or ji6)?
Sure you can install roms without rooting but you'll be limited to those provided by either Samsung or your carrier. You can have half the steps now but the other half will cost you $$$. j/k
Trying to install rom before root !

Search the market for gingerbread launcher and gingerbread keyboard. That's as good as it gets if you for whatever crazy reason don't want rootz

Installing a custom rom is much worse than rooting, btw

Yeah rooting is the easy part. Hell, flashing roms is easy too. You just have to read and follow directions. This phone is nearly brick-proof too. As long as you follow directions you have nothing to worry about.
What do you do after root?

As I have said before, NO GO unless final release version is dual core, can almost get 1.5 on my Streak today thanks to setcpu and Streakdroid 1.9.0, so why would I want a smaller screen, running WM7?
Oh, I didn't even notice it was WM7. That's a deal breaker by itself. I think HTC is just trying to get rid of some extra parts or something...

Just as a thought, did you try reading any of the 7-page thread that you linked to? Perhaps the original poster had some information about what works and what doesn't. And maybe there's some replies with actual user feedback.
Reading the thread you linked to would reveal the bugs. It's best to wait and see what DJ_Steve comes up with rather than attempting to use this ROM as a daily driver.
I am waiting for that
But I thought in the mean time I can try other roms...

Hey there is longhorn 2.0.1 ics for streak 5 too
Is it of for everyday use..???
Sent from my Dell Streak using xda premium
No ICS ROM currently available is, in my opinion, stable enough for daily use.
Okk...
In that case only thing I can do is wait....

Its up to you, want to flash and try it or not.
Me have tried all gb and ics, boring with gb then flash the ics (tablet mode always my choice), boring with ics then flash back to gb.
Do what you want, but be sure to not do anything wrong or you will regret

Flashing rom will not brick your device as long as you know step by step how to flash safely (do nandroid backup before it).
I believe all the roms in our forum will not harm our device as I have tried all of it.
But as said before, all ics roms have many bugs, better stick with gb.
I am noob and new here so cannot help much.
Nice to talk to you and I hope we can help each other in the future.
