You should check out cyanogenmod-6.0.0RC1. It's Android 2.2 for G1. I've got it running and my G1 is flying faster than ever.


Yeah, I've been checking periodically for a mature 2.2 ROM. Right now I use CompleteEclair, and I like it because everything works. I used OpenEclair before but quit because it was too non-functional. Everything working well on cyanogenmod 6?

The biggest thing that prevents me from trying out lots of ROMs is that I really don't want to wipe the phone. Does anyone know a good way to backup/restore after a wipe without paying for one of the backup apps? I don't have money, as mentioned earlier.


Any downsides? Does everything work? What about battery life? Might flash my dev phone 1


CM6 has been 100% solid for my Nexus One. I'm getting noticeably better battery life compared to stock 2.1, probably from the JIT compiler needing fewer cycles to do the same operations.


Only downside is your phone is 100% better and you get the occasional bug you'd expect from an RC1. I've been using it daily and side from my hardware issues(my battery shorts) its absolutely great.
