So we haven't had anything really new around here for a while...
I've had this guy in my possession for a while, and since I don't think I ever got permission to port it, I never posted it anywhere. This is going to be very informal. I don't even remember if the original thing was even called Novara to begin with. All I know is that it's something I should post because I know a lot of you out there, like myself, are waiting for something new. Something that is 100% stable. Here it is, folks.

NOVARA ROM
Some things you might want to know:
This is CyanogenMod 7.
This does not have many tweaks.
Really the only tweak is for speed. Its pretty damn fast.
I've flashed this many, many times, and average about 160 megs of storage on the first boot.
Absolutely no bugs (That I've noticed in my months of constant use).
Something I should add: I've pretty much always had Play Store issues: "Package File Invalid", "Error in downloading blah blah blah" I don't know whether or not to call them bugs, I've always had them.
Note that this was originally designed for the Optimus One, so SMS split is automatically off. You're going to want to turn it on.
Unlike TheKraven's CM7, there are not a massive amount of tweaks and customizable options found under "CyanogenMod Settings" in the Settings app.
The boot animation is pretty lame, not gonna lie...
Transparent status bar is not supported. No theme you download will let you use that feature.
Some preloaded apps aside from everything you'd expect:
Rom Manager
FM Radio
Nothing else I can think of, I deleted half of it all.
Screenshots:
No need for any, if you don't know what a CyanogenMod ROM looks like, you probably shouldnt download this.

It may say something other than LS670 on the google account setup screen, in fact I think I remember it saying something to do with my name... I don't remember. Ignore that if its like that. I refuse to wipe and flash my phone again just to check. If anyone wants to let me know though, that'd be great!
The ROM: Novara Port Williek113
The GApps I use: gapps-gb-20110828-signed (1)
^Note that I have Play Store issues so using those GApps isnt the greatest Idea. Those are just the ones I use.
That's really all there is to it. Let me know down in the comments if any of you have any issues.
Enjoy.
