What you are looking for is the Cyanogen ROM. Everything in it was built from the ground up using just the Open Source code directly from Google. The apps and settings backup does work on it along with the built-in wifi and usb tether. What does not work is 4G, HDMI, and FM radio. I anticipate HDMI being included very soon, but 4G is what is holding most people back. There are nightly builds with changes being posted every day. It is awesome as long as you are ok with no 4G.

edit: The backup doesn't actually backup the data associated with your apps. So, you will have to reset them each time you factory reset or wipe and flash. Things like login settings or high scores will not be saved. The other things backed up are things like your ringtone, wallpaper, wifi networks.
