Hello everyone,
I jumped to a blackberry priv in 2016 due to the physical keyboard, but i find myself gravitating back to my sexy ghost.
Now when i left, we had some solid custom roms, but none had managed to utilize the "wave" properly. I am sincerely hoping we have made it past that point.
I purchased a second XT1053 so i could have spare parts... my original X was used extensively, and it shows... the new phone was used by a senior, is in perfect condition but doesnt have the proper aesthetics.
The plan is to cannibalize the new purchased phone for its parts to restore some life into my old phone.
Things i plan to swap
So aside from those, im wondering if XDA would see merit in taking some of the other parts, say ram/mobo/snapdragon, etc. Typically, i do all this type of work myself, but this time im going to do it at a shop who gives me a full year warranty on their work. (new phone if they mess up)
The second ask
What would you say the most well balanced rom is? Right now im looking forward to utilizing my moto x wave and gestures, but also want to remove any bloatware. Ideally, i would like to utilize newer features with minimal slowdown... but i know the phone is limited by its hardware.
All i can say is, im so hype to be back on this phone.
