:D Official Nexus Rooted Converts Thread :D
If you decide to root your Nexus, after researching around this thread and othersites, make sure you have some time and patience to do it.
PLEASE PLEASE use the search features located on this site, and on other forums before posting a question in this thread. If you are having a problem, *TAKE A DEEP BREATH* and make sure you are doing each step exactly as instructed. I will try to help with info that I have learned and what others have posted, but you are doing this on your own accord. Don't blame me if you mess up your Nexus! Have fun rooting!  Quote:
It was my first time rooting, and I researched and checked out 10++ guides on how to root, and each were slightly different so it made it difficult. Eventually I got the adb commands down, and after unsuccessfully attempting to flash the recovery a bunch of times, i got Cyanogen on my nexus. Its AMAZING. Super fast, wifitether, trackball colors, torch, overclocking, and more. I'm still working on getting back all of the apps i downloaded, but I'm getting there. PLUS, all my apps are working as they did before the root. Having 200mb++ extra of ram is pretty nice too. My question is for other rooted nexus users! Now that I have root on my phone, what do you recommend as far as apps/roms/anything that is interesting? Been searching around and finding various root apps, but I'm a bit lost as I'm still somewhat new to the rooting.

So far, the Nexus is running MUCH more stable than it was before.
I am using Home++ with all 7 screens covered in apps/widgets. Before on stock, I'd get force closes rather often, from the amount of stuff. So far, I haven't had ANY forcecloses whatso ever on Cyanogen with the exact same set up before root. I just pushed the newest trackball notification succession, so not only does the trackball light up different colors, it shows MULTIPLE colors in a row for emails/text/voicemails/tweets. I haven't used my task killer at ALL, and I have no more slow down or shuttering even with many apps open! Cyanogen really did maximize the rom!

You need to do some researching and searching on this site!
I used a combination of sites. Full Update Guide - Nexus One Firmware to CyanogenMod - CyanogenMod Wiki Video: How to unlock and root a Nexus One – Android and Me Unlock and Root a Nexus One - Nexus one - Lifehacker I also flipped around all over XDA and here searching for help. I'm using Cyanogen 5.0.4.1 with Google Addon. Amon RA 1.6 Cyanogen has the trackball messaging notification built in, but I added on for the trackball succession: [MOD] Trackball Notifications in Succession [v 0.4] - xda-developers The hardest part I encountered was the ADB commands. Once you get the ADB commands down, then the actual flashing/booting is extremely easy.

Here is a video of the trackball succession notification! Green for email, magenta for aim, orange for text. I'm not sure if it can do more than 3 in a row. But I'm not sure about battery length yet. Its been running well but I haven't had time to test it fully. Sorry for the low quality. My camera is horrible and youtube made it even worse. :P
