So I finally gave in, downloaded modaco's alpha 3 ROM, booted into recovery, nandroid, flash modaco's bravo rom and booted into the OS.
Here are a few snapshots:
Unlocked Nexus One pre-boot screen
Lockscreen:
Yes that's flash 10.1 in the Android browser :)
Placing a call:
HTC Music App:
Weather app:
Switching between desktops (Nexus One ROM's card view?)
and finally, the deskclock
So far, my experience has been no different than the Hero roms on my last G1. If you want aesthetics, go for the Sense based rom, you will need a rooted Nexus though. Nexus does run great with this Bravo rom, but I can only imagine how badly the battery would get butchered.
Everything has worked out fine thus on this new rom except for two things:
- Odd flickering of the screen, assuming its a display driver issue, almost as if some weird lines are running through the screen from time to time
- No Wifi
The rom is pretty stable for an Alpha. That said, since I'm not big on aesthetics that kill productivity, I'll likely switch back to CM 5.0.2 soon after. Once this rom is past the beta stages, I will give it another spin, till then, good ol Cyanogen works beautifully :)
Questions? Fire-away.
