Yesterday you may have seen an article about theme chooser being added to BAMF Paradigm and today that very ROM has officially been brought to the Nexus 7.  BAMF brings a lot of new features to the AOSP and is a culminaiton of the work of many developers over a period of months. Just take a look at the features list below and you will see one of the better supported and more customizeable AOSP efforts around. Just take a look at the features list below. Theme Chooser is the main reason to run this ROM (images below) though it’s still a bit buggy and there arent a lot of themes that work without hitches on the Nexus 7 but it’s still adds a ton of customization to the tablet. Hit the source link and head over to BAMF to give this one a spin. I can confirm that Motley’s Linaro optimzed CM10 kernel works perfectly so you may want to have a look at that as well. Happy Flashing!
