So im writing this, see how many others what build (for those of us who have rooted phones) what build are you using?
I myself am a big fan of JF current builds, thought I got to admit that haykuro’s build with the magic port is awesome… dadudes is not as well, even though I did not use it much, I did experiment with it right now im using JF latest build. It runs good; on my other G1 I have haykuro Build. Keeps me busy messing with each one 
regardless here is a lil information an couple links for those who wish to use them…
First read these links, YOU NEED ROOT for installing these builds
For obtaining root visit here (a must see first) if u dont have root dont even bother oj checkign the other Devs Builds..
for The old JF builds (firmware 1.1) check it here
if you already had the old build, here is the diff type by diff devs.
Check out Haykuro builds here (Magic Port) located Here Find his Twitter.

Came across this script, created by a member of http://forum.xda-developers.com for thos of you who uses nandroid, and often restore other builds, ect. is very handy, check out my apps restore script as well..
lil info from the author.
Nandroid, created through the efforts of Infernix and Brainaid, is a great tool for backing up your phone. The NANDROID backup process itself is easy to use, however, some folks are not so sure about how to restore these backups back to their phone.
Solution: Nandroid Restore
What it does: Automates the FASTBOOT portion of the restore.
- The script will use FASTBOOT to wipe the boot, system, userdata and cache partitions from your phone.
- Then it will reflash the boot, system, userdata and recovery images back to your phone.
- When these tasks are completed, the script then reboots your phone.
here is the original thread of the script find it here.

So I decided to make this small guide, on how to partitioning your sd card with paragon partition manager… There is many different ways, including a script an xda forum member created, and ubuntu as well.. But I assume paragon partition manager might be the best for all people who don’t know how to use Linux very much..
• Things you will need:
• An SDCARD (obviously lol)
• SDcard read (very recommended)
• Paragon partition manager (find a trial or something)
• LucidREM MOdded version of JF 1.42 and or manually make the system edits found here

A la hora de transferir archivos de un servidor a otro nos complicamos la vida, ya que es difícil transferir archivos grandes. Como muchos no tenemos una conexión rápida es difícil bajar una gran cantidad de archivos y volverla a subir cuando los mismos servidores tienen una buena velocidad, ¿por que no usarla? Muchos de nosotros conocemos del comando wget, el cual es una herramienta muy útil, pero tiene algunas fallas cuando intentas transferir más de 2 mil archivos. El comando wget se cae, tiene un límite, luego no sabes donde quedaste. Una buena herramienta tb es scp, no es de mis favoritas pero resuelve. Lo que muchos no conocen es rsycn. Esta una de las mejores que he encontrado hasta el momento ¿por qué? Si la conexión se cae o deseas parar y luego seguir no transfiere los archivos que ya transfirió, ahorras tiempo y ancho de banda (bandwitdh). Aquí explicare las diferentes formas de transferir.

So i found a better way less hassle to install apk’s files from a directory for those who have mybackup or any other software that backups your apps in to a zip file i was playing aroun with a batch scripts and found a nice more easy way.
usage:
- Extract all the apps anywhere in your pc eg: C:\apps
- copy all the files from the apk restore script folder inside the apps directory you extracted.
- run restore-apk.v1.3.bat
files:
restore-apk.v1.3.bat – script file
ren.bat – for renaming files with spaces (those who backup with appmanager application)
AdbWinApi.dll – for those who don’t have it inside system32
adb.exe – for those who don’t have it inside system32
About
Depending on the option you select it will install the apps for files will spaces use option 1 for normal backups that has the name such as “android.androidVNC.apk” use option 2 same goes for re-installing the apps.
update: 05/17/2009
- Cleaned the code.
- Removed the creation of the filelist now it installs directly.
- Made it so it works with files that contain spaces It will rename files with spaces so it can be installed. Noticed the app in the market called “appmanager save it with spaces and abd wont install them.
- included adb.exe for those who don’t have it in system32 folder
- added re-install option.
