[Q] After root, what to do next?

Just rooted my NC, went smoothly. Now what is the first or one of the first apk's I need to install. How do I get away from the stock NC UI? I guess I need a way to see my installed apps and some sort of display arranger.

Try rom manager and install a custom rom...

I would recommend a good launcher, like ADW.Launcher or LauncherPro and go from there.
Also a market alternative like APKTor, and you should be all set!

There is no recovery and defiantly no custom recovery yet and there are absolutely no custom roms yet.
Back to OP. Check out this page for ideas http://nookdevs.com/Portal:NookColor#Things_to_do_after_you.27ve_rooted_your_NookColor

Thanks guys for advice, sounds like a good place to start is the launcher. Just saw this vid on YouTube. What launcher is he using for 5 home screens?

Many people have found the Zeam launcher to be the one that works best on the NC .. google Zeam on xda for link.

[03/06] Hinted White Lockscreen - Official Gas update

If you are a fan of ClassicalGas's work (e.g. you use his JAMT theme chooser theme) and would like to use one of his lockscreen's then look no further:
http://themedroid.com/2011/06/hinted-white-lockscreen/
Gas has updated the theme for use on CM7. Here are the instructions from his site:
Install ZipThemer (consider donating for this wonderful tool)
Download the zipped file
Open ZipThemer and press “+Theme”
Locate the downloaded file
Press “Build It!”
Create undo file
Flash outputted file via recovery or RomManager
Enjoy
Screen shots below (also from Gas's website).

Thanks for doing this! I Hadn't got around to it myself (and probably wont for a while).
Gas

Awesome! Thanks a lot.

Hi Gas, no problem at all! Happy to help

Worked perfectly! and looks awesome with the JAMT - White Gradient theme!!
-Evo, CM7,n76

Yessssssss!

hm. cant get it to work.
It flashes alright but only thing changeing is the 'answering sliders' not anything on the lockscreen.
Im running JAMT-donate via the theme manager and im guessing i might have to use the system-defult to see the changes(?).
Any way to solve this?

Noone that can point me in the right direction?

I think the sliders are themed by the theme chooser so it may not actually be changing anything. Is it flashing properly?

I think it would, there may be a few redundant images in the zip you could delete to streamline the package but the sliders should theme.

{MOD} Animated Pulldown Bar

If you have made a Animated Pulldown Bar animation post it and i will upload it into the OP. I will also be making some when i get time im very busy trying to get work things together but i will work on what i can but please share your work i will give full credit and show it off thank you.
Video of what this looks like
If you wish to try this your self look HERE for that info.
Made by notta:
It will work much like the multi-anim zip I did "if familiar with it" by means of renaming a file inside a folder called notta on your sdcard to the animation of your choice. Then just reboot to recovery and flash the same zip you downloaded. Thats it!
Hopefully one zip, 15 different anims, working on CM7 and MIUI.
Instructions copied from the file you will rename (sdcard/notta/green-lightning)
Open as text such as with Root Explorer to view
Instructions for use:
Simply rename this file, the one you are reading to the pulldown animation of your choice. Reboot to recovery and reflash the original zip you downloaded. It will identify your choice by the file and patch that set. Be advised if you mispell your choice, nothing will be flashed and error.txt will reside in /sdcard/notta. NOTE: A dalvik wipe should be performed on the first initial flash, it should not be necessary after that.
So far the pulldown animations to rename default to are:
Please rename exactly as shown:
green-lightning
green-lightning2
blue-lightning
blue-lightning2
blue-lightning3
blue-lightning4
nerve
nerve2
pixel
pink-bounce
orange-bounce
blue-cosmic
apparition
red-plasma
cosmic-string
Consider it a beta zip & Again let me know how things work or give feedback. I have tested this but not extensively, It works by identifying whether ThemeChooser.apk (CM7) or ThemeEngine.apk (MIUI) resides in the system/app folder. If one or the other is not there, it won't flash anything!
I figure being able to theme on the fly is one of the reasons people run these roms, so it was a quick and easy solution to combine both in one zip.
The status bar may take a moment to set back in between animation choices. Also the animation never works on the first pulldown, just pull down a second time and it works great from then on out.
Also makes an undo flashable backup for both CM7 & MIUI!

yes just flash it through ClockWork, no wipes or anything

I have only been running this a very short time, but I gotta say it is buttery smooth and very simple. The 3D effect is cool. I wish it was a bit more customizable, with themes and such, but I am going to keep using it. The memory foot print is very small.

I'm on the latest nighlty, flashed trough CWM and got a bootloop.
Thoughts?

I tried to put the launcher2.apk in /system/app but it didn't work

You don't need launcher 2 to do that. Just any customizable launcher such as launcherpro or ADW. Then you can recreate that style.

Read the actual description of the app in market, you'll see it says not all widgets etc are a part of the theme. But it does provide all links of where to get them. Follow the links.
