I recently rooted and flashed my nexus one for the first time! It was really easy and I flashed CM6.1 to it. Can anyone recommend any other roms there are and maybe some of the different things that each rom contains? I am very curious to know what each offers. Also any rooted apps that anyone would be able to recommend would be great. Thanks in advance.
Look around the forums and you will find a bunch of them.
1) Read the ROMs page in Wiki (look at my signature).
2) Look in Development forum.
ROM Bible is also a good thread:

Hi Everyone,
I am new to the forums and I have been thinking whether to root my phone or not, mainly for warranty purposes as I just got it a few weeks ago.
My question is, if I do root the phone, are there custom Froyo 2.2 roms available on this site and if so a)can you please link them to me and b) explain how to install?
I would like to also hear some input/feedback to what's the pros and cons of rooting my phone and if its actually worth it and what happens if something happens and I can't fix it?
I really appreciate with all the help I can get and thanks
I'm new here myself but haven't you ever heard of Google my child? Or heck, search the forums there are plenty of them explaining how to.

At the moment there is one ROM which you can use for your daily used one.
- Azure from Ali Bau (take a look at the thread)
I use the ROM since two weeks and don't have any issue.

Thanks for information. All I have to do is, do more research and find out how to root my phone, and install the custom ROM
I am happily on a nexus s... and in the past, I have rooted and flashed the nexus one, desire hd, galaxy tab and now my nexus s... however, I have a friend that has a rogers captivate... and he just wants to run froyo....
is it safe to assume, it is just as easy as rooting and flashing a custom rom?
Any links or suggestions appreciated, I never care when I tinker with MY devices... but this is a friends.... thx in advance

Short answer to your question is yes it that easy. The link its to the dev forum. There are too many options and choices, best to read and make an informed decision

are you talking about the roms? What is the easiest method of gaining root access on the capitivate? thx
I guess I will read up on it once I have his phone in front of me!
thx
Yeah, it's really just as easy as following the steps. If the Cappy is fairly new it seems it won't have the issues that plagued the earlier runs of this phone so just pick a ROM and go for it.
first off, im sorry if this is common knowledge but after looking for a few i decided to ask. I recently flashed cognition 4.3 to my cappy and love it so far. I'm wanting to flash a few more ROMs after flashing my first rom of course.
My question is, do i need to restore to 2.1 via ODIN before I flash each ROM?
Also, I've seen it said that some ROMs can't be flashed the same as others. I used the method shown in this thread here :http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=884364. Can anyone compile a list of ROMs that will flash via that method or something I just need to look out for before flashing a ROM?
I already have titanium backup pro so if i make a complete back up before I reflash, i can simply run the restore from there and my phone will essentially be right where i left it?
ok, that was more than one question....sorry if i didn't search hard enough for the answers
Why why why. Do ppl post questions in dev section.? This is not development related. I do suggest to flash stock first. Unless told not to by the dev. It helps keep it a clean flash.

You should really look harder if you have decided to dive into android development and flashing. You dont have to flash to stock everytime, and many people do it differently. Some of what you wrote shows you need a little more reading. Mods will move this, let the flaming begin.

i know its mostly opinion but what ROMs do you guys recommend? I've been looking at Paragon, Phoenix, Seredipity and a few others
soooooooorrry. I actually thought i was in a different section. had multiple windows open
Is there a USCC Stock rom? I see a few threads talking about one. But after a week of searching, it cant be found.

I am not familiar with one, but that doesn't mean a whole lot. There is a thread buried somewhere in the development forum that had a link to a private repository of the various different stock roms. Looking through the pages, I wasn't able to find it. But I am sure it is there somewhere.
Alternately, you could create a back up of the (presumably) stock rom that is on there now, so if you did flash something else you'd have a backup to fall back on
I've been searching for a stock of USCC for four months and I haven't been able to find anything... Seems it does not exist.
`Yes that is what I think. I wish I would have thought to back mine up before I switched to the VZ GB version. But oh well. It least it runs good.
If for some reason I wanted to return to a stock ROM on my device, is there a site where I can download the latest stock ROM.
For example. I currently have a Nandroid backup of my HTC One's 4.2.2 Sense 5.0 ROM. While this is the latest stock at the moment, if per say when the finally get 4.3, is there a site or perhaps a thread on the forums where people post stock ROMs for their carrier/device.
I have looked about Google but haven't really managed to find much. Or at least resources which looks trustworthy/updated often.
Thanks and sorry for the noob question
