Muli-boot os or app? - Nexus S Themes and Apps

So I've been playing around with a few phones and different ROMs and found a few I like... been looking for a app or recovery (bootloader with touch..broken power button) that will allow me to run a different ROM with ease...closest thing I can find is.

But not sure it or would be compatible with my ns4g.. anyone else tried this app?

Just rooted, Now what?

This is the first time I have ever been near or used an Android phone. I got my i9000 a few days ago and have started messing about with widgets etc. I have been reading this forum for a few months prior to owning an Android phone as technology interests me. I was following a home screen thread and realized I had to root my Galaxy S to be able to take screenshots. Then I found the One Click Lag Fix app that was on the Android market. The lag was something that was really bothering me and now its running really smooth.
So now I have root what else should I do to my phone?
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks
A couple apps I use that need root access: mybackup pro and root explorer.
Have fun
I'll be sure to check them out. Anyone else?

This is what I thought too. Apart from backing up to the average user, there doesn't seem to be a lot to do!

Flash roms, overclock cpu, clear app caches. Modify system apps (eg make browser fullscreen).
Anything really.
Clocksync - if cell-network time sync sucks.
MarketAccess - if you can't purchase apps on market
Autokiller or Minfree manager - to keep memory tidy (less necessary on the most recent firmwares)
Screenshot - should be obvious.

Im sticking to stock for now, see no reason to switch. I mostly mix/mash stuff from other roms if i like. But yea i just got my vibrant few days back so i don't know wht roms are available/good. There was this thread however, look for "best firmware" i believe it was called.
Okay thanks for the tips everyone
There are usefull programs once u have root.The sound booster is one of them u can find it in this dev section

App to disable captive buttons

Is there an app that can disable the lights in the captive buttons?
I still want them to be functional, I just don't want them on.

I'll second this, from a theming point of view, this would be a desirable thing to have... perhaps someone could suggest a hack instead
I was about to suggest this app:
https://market.android.com/details?id=net.geekherd.softbuttonshack
however it is clearly stated that this is not possible on the Nexus S
*ALERT: The Samsung Nexus S will NEVER be supported. Not because I don't want to, but because it is not possible, I own one and I have tried and tried. Samsung (or Google) have decided that the bottom LEDs will always be on as long as the display is on, powered at the same time. Obviously breaking a few APIs as well as the ability to turn those LEDs off based on the light-sensor.*

Hmm well I've experienced instances where the screen is on but my buttons didn't light up. It looked pretty cool with a black background which lead me to start this thread.

Sound Profiles?

I am looking for a way to turn notifications off automatically during night hours on stock ROM.
Is there any option in Sense 5?
Looking for not installing other apps. I've purchased Sound Profiles in the past for earlier phones, but with AOSP etc I stopped using other apps and was looking for inbuilt options in the ROM.

I haven't seen an option, but I didn't look to thoroughly. I use Tasker to accomplish that.
I know I could use multiple additional things...
HTC - if yo aure listening, this should be a must..

I was told by HTC to tell them about your suggestions here. Make noise on things and features you want. I submitted this very same idea... I'm with you. The more they hear about it, the better our chances:

NFC tags for the win.

Oddly enough I made sure it did last night and its still not working :\
Ok I did it, go and setup the newest MaDoCo Toolkit, it give the option to fix the name in the build prop.. just fix it instantly and then it will show up in the playstore, I just did it and I love the app.. takes some time to setup but it's well worth it

No, because ps3 has no IR built in. You'll need a usb dongle compatible with the ps3. I use the nyko blu-wave receiver with my Harmony remote, I'm sure this will work with that too.

If you want all apps (free) blapkmarket.cz
They are all hacked I think.

"TV" like app.

Hey guys. Unlike many posts I've read, I actually love the TV app that comes stock with the One and its one of the many things that really make me reconsider rooting & using different ROMs. I love having the IR blaster and I think its one of the many things that makes this phone unique. I'm wondering if anyone knows of a good app that is similar to the TV app that I could find in the play store (or elsewhere) that I could use without stock. Thanks!

Smart ir remote is the best one i tried. Here you can see a review:
http://www.androidpolice.com/2013/0...es-wet-dream-but-it-comes-at-a-premium-price/
The IR blaster will not work currently with AOSP roms though correct? Only Sense based ones IIRC.
The IR blaster will only work on Sense ROMs and 4.3 Google Edition ROMs. AOSP and 4.2.2 Google Edition don't have the drivers for the IR blaster.
I also like the TV app and would like to see if it could get ported to a GE 4.3 ROM. I tried moving the TV apk and IR blaster apk to the GE ROM but the app kept force closing
