Some Questions. Need Answers. [Related to ROMS and the Camera App] - G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Okay, I got my G1 today, The problem i have is love to take pics. The Cyanogen cam is UGLY. The gray frame looks like crap. Any ROMs out there that have a good camera app and 3D Gallery? Also Cyanogen Mod is kinda okay. I am looking for ROMs with more visual Style. I prefer Eclair. Suggest em please. =]

Which is the best ROM for me?

Hey I was looking for a new ROM on my new G1. I would like something with a nice digital clock widget, a messaging widget, and just many downloadable widgets. My brother has Hero on his G1 and I love, the only problem is that I don't like the fact that if you slide it up it just freezes... So are there any somewhat similar to Hero but can slide?

As of right now, no. This is because the actual Hero doesn't have the keyboard, and so when you slide it up, it tries to force Rosie into widescreen which it doesn't support, ergo, the crash. You'll just have to live with it. However, Drizzy has been making some progress with that and has actually gotten Rosie to run with the keyboard open though it crashes and then reloads Rosie when you open the keyboard. He said he'd look into it more so follow his twitter for more info.
EDIT: Forgot to say. Hero ROM's are the only one with a messaging widget. You can download the Digital Clock widget from the market for a small price. I don't know the name of the widget exactly, just do a search for it in the theme section, it was mentioned in there a few times i believe.
There aren't any messaging widgets like the one on the Hero roms. You can download ANY widget to any rom though, just search the market for widgets and see what you find. Hero shouldn't freeze when you "slide up" whatever that means, if your talking about the keyboard when your on the home screen that is because they don't rotate, only in programs. If you mean some other type of slide then most likely your brother didn't do a proper linux-swap partition or it is to small. Anyway you need to just try the different roms and see what you like best, also some themes offer extra widgets and features but remember you can get any widget to any rom, just not the Hero/HTC Rosie widgets because HTC's stuff is closed source so we can't port it.
Ok thanks guys. So can I have the original and like non experimental link to hero. I use to search box and only find mods of it, and I guess I am just iffy on the mods. Anybody mind giving me the link to the newest and best quality ROM for Hero? Thanks In Advance

The modded ones are the best ones. The unmodded original is veryyyyy slow compared to the new ones. I would try JACHeroski 2.1 or MoDaCo 1.51 are both fast, stable choices.

All heros are technically "experimental". I haven't messed with the new Drizzy. I'm still putting JacHeroSki 2.1 throught it's paces. I can recommend it. There are people who like each of the different incarnations of hero.
What I suggest is going to the DEV section and read. Decide on your own. Hell, you can flash them all with switchrom. Have some fun and learn some cool stuff.
so good roms

Switchrom for the win. Seriously.. haha Yeah JACxRom is pretty decent. But as far as hero have you tried HERO2 - Freedom of choice? If not I think you'll be impressed. I flash FoC when it was first released and it wasn't anything to write home about but now? Dang.. it's fast. Wicked Fast. Try it out!

Nexus One Camera Replacement?

I'm not really liking the stock N1 camera - there isn't much functions and some of the pictures look rigidity. I remember I flashed a ROM that had a pretty cool camera application or some sort - can anyone recommend me an application, or a rom?
It was probably a Sense ROM from the Desire.
I hate it when my pictures look rigidity...
Seriously though, is the Desire/Sense camera app available for stock Froyo?
Could I just take the .apk from a Sense ROM and install it on Froyo?

[REQ Port][theme] Dark Transparent [v2.0] QuadLock ExtendedPwrMenu

Anyone want to give this theme a shot? I like that it is transparent instead of all black. Probably do well with battery life as well with it being a darker theme... I could be wrong.

Would the extra features/locks be based on a Rom? More so then a theme?

im assuming android.policy.jar and framework-jar.......but as to how to implement them? meh jt or kaos im sure could figure it out but they have bigger things on their plate
its a cool feature but im sure id get a headache looking into and ultimately not be successful...maybe with froyo someone will figure it out for touchwiz roms....but with aosp, i dont know how much tw dev will go on (and cm allows you to choose rotary or glass unlock anyway)
Any more interest in this one, it is a very clean theme!

You don't have to use it then, nobody is forcing you.. It's more proof of concept that a MiUi APK is working on another rom.
~ DiGi
Thanks for the heads up DiGi. Its interesting to note that MIUI items can be ported over successfully.
Could the keyboard be ported as well?
Perfect
Now see this is what designs should look like. All these camera app on the market and basic ones that come on phones are just junk as far as the design goes. The Miui.apk is sleek and sexy. It's even really easy to navigate for what you need. It's the way it should be.

[REQUEST][THEME] for Stock/Modaco ROM

Hey Everybody
Due to the unacceptable in-call quality of CM7 and MIUI on my O2X, I am forced to use Stock or Modaco. (Yes I have tried all RIL+BB combos)
Unfortunately the Stock/Modaco style looks like someone drank a lot of curacao and vomited inside my phone.
My theme request is as follows. Can someone please find/replace all the curacao vomit color with perhaps some gingerbread green and make a stock or modaco compatible theme? Bonus would be if menu items where all white a'la CM7.
I have no idea what the extend of this request really is, but if you come through on this - I will be your facebook friend anytime, perhaps even myspace.
Thanks
/Mikkel
Just in case no one is available to help out. You can always try to do it yourself.

Just a heads up. Since Nightly #177 in call quality has vastly improved. it used to be a dealbreaker for me too
