OK so.. what exactly can I do with my G1?

I rooted it a while back and updated to Cupcake (1.5), basically so I could tether it to my laptop, and have used it for that since but..
Now I come back, browse the forum and people are talking about new FWs and ROMs, and I want in on it.
I would especially like to be able to store apps on my SD card aswell if anyone can help there.
And could someone post maybe a quick breakdown of any new stuff you can do with a rooted phone that I may not know about.
Thanks a bunch.

OK so basically search these forums for anything you want like "apps2sd" or go to the dream android development section to check out all the latest roms. Looking at all the different threads by yourself will be way more informative then me trying to explain it to you. Have fun .
P.S. Check out the new cyan rom that just came out

Lucky for you I was in your position recently, I saved all the useful links for easier access in the future.
This link is probably the most helpful and will bring you up to speed and have you prepared for pretty much everything thats out now.

I would start with cyan's recovery image first, run down the list till you are on he latest SPL and Radio (Might wanna do a little research before on this, Good brick potential if done wrong). Then I would stop at the part about JacHero, If you want to test that rom. Go ahead, Hero is great but runs slower.
I prefer CyanogenMod. Here's the link to that.
Stable: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=537204
"Experimental": http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=539744
I quoted that cause it's always ran stable for me. Last thing about apps to sd, If you partition your sdcard and set it up like the tutorial, Cyan's rom will set up apps2sd automatically.
I'd say thats a pretty good start, good luck and welcome back.

The rooting process is still the same and you flash all these new roms like you would a JF build. the process is pretty much the same juat the stuff is sooo mucb cooler: )

I learned something new you can do with your G1. You know that little glass hole on the back of your G1?? Its not a peep hole to look at the inner workings of your phone as I originally thought. That is actually a camera you could take pictures/videos with...

The Official 2.1 Rumors Thread

THIS is the thread where you can post all your 2.1 rumors in. Rather than cluttering up our tiny sub-forum, just post it HERE. At this point, Sprint should just open up DamageControl, remove DC specifics and SU, and send that out OTA. Can a mod please sticky this?

This SO isn't getting stickied, but nice try.
BTW *I* heard that 2.1 will be released tonight! That's right! TONIGHT an OTA is coming for 2.1. But it will be silent, and you won't be able to tell that's it's been done.
In fact after the 2.1 update your phone will look JUST LIKE IT'S a 1.56 stock rom! Pretty sweet coding, if you ask me.

A date has not been officially confirmed yet.
What is confirmed is that the update will be OTW only, the update will be released on sprint.com (not sure about htc.com), and you will be able to download it and perform the update....
what i don't know, as of yet, is if the update will wipe your phone, although i assume it will, considering what the update includes.
All i can tell you at this time, is that no sprint employee knows when the update will be released, all we have been told is this: "In the near future"...
outside of those 2 facts, all other information would result in a breach of privacy contract, and i will not risk that.

You really should be putting questions like this in the appropriate Thread, not create a new Thread. If you're talking about Liberated with Froyo ROM, put the question there. Same goes for the next question you asked.

It technically doesn't matter. If someone were to search the forum the result would be the same, they'd get the answer they were looking for. Ultimately, that is what a forum is for: exchange of information. As long as we can search it successfully, that is the end goal.

Did you expect people to answer your question for all ROMS in the ARIA secdtion? DUH!

And, I don't post in the General section because most of the dimwits in the GENERAL section have not a friggen clue what they're talking about. 95% of them probably don't even know about the Gratia ROM being ported to our device.

I stand corrected on the ROM question; you did state it, my mistake.
Still not sure why you didn't post your question in the Gratia Thread that was already started; namely: "HTC Sense UI Froyo ROM for HTC Aria aka Liberty aka Gratia"; fits beautifully there. And, I was really only trying to help you get an answer quicker; no nit picky'ing intended.

I have gotten quite sick of all the stupid derailments in the forums lately. Why is it necessary to start off talking about bugs in the latest ***** ROM, and somehow end up talking about how poster #56 is a slimy d-nozzler that has no place talking about zebra pigmentation. I understand that everyone has incredibly hilarious wit, and a need to share it. All i ask is that you think before you post. Everyone is *****ing about this problem for a reason. its not a joke anymore. one post is helpful, the next 26 pages are full or bumtards arguing about whos e-member is bigger.
no need to answer to this, as there is nothing to respond to. just read this, laugh about the truth, and learn.

Devs get the most work done while having fun, no doubt. but stpid people posting stupid things non stop is whats hurting the epic community so much

I was not intending to be rude if that's how your view it.
I was just stating the fact because we have a site cluttered with multiple threads dealing with the same thing. And multiple dealing with another subject.
It gets harder and harder to find what you are looking for in the cluttered garbage. It would be nice if the moderators would actually do something about it, like delete this useless thread and all our useless posts, including mine.
Oh no, I should not be so rude to myself. My bad.
