you guys are getting wrong concept for what is root itself..Root does not solve any problems..it just gives you the super user access..You need super user access to flash custom ROMs..Its the custom ROMs that fix problems usually..How frequently do you see releases from HTC themselves?

Live Wallpaper has nothing to do with root too..Look mate, its really simple..First, you need to install the Android SDK..Then, you need to install fastboot (not necessary though)..then, the rest is all in the first page of this post..I mean, its not that I don't want to give a one by one guide..But ask those who have successfully rooted, the stuff that I have provided is indeed more than enough..You just need to do very little reading, downloading and it will be done in no time at all..Those links that I gave, visit them..read the threads..

you long press the nexus one home screen..select wallpapers..there will be live wallpapers there already..

For newer ones, you can find in market but considering its still very new, there are not many live wallpapers in the market yet..

...and you don't need root for this

Ok smile.gif let me answer most question here:

What I do
- I call Malaysia HTC service center but has been inform this phone is not in services as not yet official available in Malaysia.
- Malaysia HTC informed me this phone is not under universal warranty.
- I write an email to HTC via http://www.htc.com/www/support/nexusone/contactus.aspx as I can't call Singapore 1800 from Malaysia.
- In Email, I wrote my phone can't on at all after I unplug the battery during hanging period, I feel so down as I just purchase it less than 4 days.
- I received email after around 3 hours past, requesting me sending over my faulty Nexus One to the only Singapore Service Center.
- A ticketting will be available inside the email where you need to respond, or else after 15 days the case will be auto close.
- I send over to Singapore Service Center second day afternoon alone with printed email reply from HTC web.
- The service Center taken my phone, and back cover (the battery, microSD card is returning).
- After a while, I being given a paper with Job No and being inform you can check your status same as you report before.
- Maybe due to I already bring over the printed email, the service center never asking me any question.
- Service Center informed me most probably will get fix and return the phone by next Monday.
- They provide delivered to your home / office (within Singapore area only)
- I am so suprise where I get call from my friend as the phone already ready.
- I am more suprise when I open up I notice it still wrapped, I immediate check the S/N and notice it was different with the box one.

My Opinion about CyanogenMod 5.0.4.1
- Smoother visual effect, nearly no more lagging issue.
- Extra call button in all contact name.
- Curve corner at Status Bar.
- Power Control Widget bar color change to cyan blue, anyway to return back, I more prefered the android green.
- Startup will change from 4 color animation to blue before success logon to phone.
- Stable than stock ROM.
- Able to install lots of Apps that required root access.
- Auto APNs setup.
- Highly recommended flash but always remember be patient and read carefully all the step, don't ever be my next victim true brick the phone.

So Happy Now  rclxms.gif I didn't flash the Radio this time since I not facing any signal issue and for SAFETY issue.

Once agains thanks for all concern and precautions and guide, at least I not happen to break it again.


Added on March 5, 2010, 9:24 pm
Thanks smile.gif is ok, as I more preffered custom ROM, hehe smile.gif

can we choose not to have the curve corner at status bar? I prefer the stock 1.

Added on March 6, 2010, 11:50 amanyway is there any spare battery for nexus one on sale here in KL??
google price for battery is fair enough USD25 but the shipping cost maybe more than the price itself unless we do bulk order.

cyanogen ROM is stable enough..i never had any problem with it...perhaps it's much better than stock ROM. i cannot compare since i rooted and flash to cyanogen ROm a few hours after i bought my N1
