- peregrine 16y agoHave you by chance installed any of the custom roms on it yet? Makes the G1 feel like a new phone, still the best phone I've ever owned. That said mine is definitely showing its age and I'm excited for my contract to be up this August.
- Andys 16y agoI love my G1. It feels solid.. yesterday I dropped it down a flight of concrete steps and its fine!
- zackola 16y agoIt's definitely a solid phone. When I got it (pre-order) I was worried about the hinge for the screen, but it's held up remarkably.
- keefe 16y agolinks to best roms / verified howto?

- mr_justin 16y agoApproach this with care. I just bricked my G1 with DangerSPL. Followed the steps exactly, never made it past the SPL flash.
- keefe 16y agolol and this is why I haven't done this yet...
- peregrine 16y agoI've flashed my SPL and my rom several times before. Getting close to 20 times I've flashed my rom and 5 times flashing my SPL and I've had little to no issues. Follow the instructions to the T and nandroid backup and you should be okay.

- zackola 16y agoYes, I'd been running a pretty recent Cyanogen mod, but not one that was 2.1. I had been thinking about using a 2.1+ mod but haven't had the time to sit down and figure the whole process again. The keyboard on the G1 is great, but that's about it. After installing and using Cyanogen it always felt like the phone was laggy for doing the important things, answering calls, etc. The best phone I've owned so far for functioning as a phone was a RAZR v3. The best smartphone up until about a year ago was the G1, but with limited ram the hardware has been unable to keep up it seems.
