I consider myself a geek / gadget tweaker. My 3GS iPhone is jailbroken, I build and overclock all my PCs, I'm a software engineer by profession. That being said, I'm having trouble justifying the potential cons of a root with Cyanogenmod even though the geek in me wants to do it anyway.
Here are the potential cons that I'm aware of:
Right now, the phone works very well for me. It seems responsive (though maybe not as responsive as my 3GS), the battery life is not that bad and I can tether via USB.
Can someone please highlight some other additional functionality that I may not be aware of with the root?
Thanks!
Here are the potential cons that I'm aware of:
- Live wallpaper issues:
- Voided warranty
- Bluetooth issues (dealbreaker for me. I use BT all the time)
- More responsive GUI
- WiFi tethering
- better battery life (confirmed?)
- app2SD (not all that interested)
- theming (not that interested)
- just having the N1 is a theming dream over even the jailbroken 3GS
