So i rooted my droid, and loaded a overclock widget.

what other things do you suggest to do with a rooted droid?
you cant actually overclock unless you install a custom kernal.

I see some torrent's on gigs of apps (apk's) how would I install these?

if i move the apk to my sd, and install with apk manager do the trick?
on my galaxy s2 i tick a box in settings that lets me install from sources other than the market, not sure how to do it on your phone.

Yea Jake your right I was researching more and I need to install a custom rom for overclock to work.

but I was able to get the settings to load the apk's i D/L'd, and got a root manager and deleted some bloatware, mainly the demo games and shit.



I'm going to attempt load custom rom this week - I been reading up on it on some of the droid forums. My phone recently updated to GB 2.3.3, i'm a little nervous of fucken it up

every phone is different so look it up in the forum but on mine i bought a $2 jig that plugs into the microusb slot and automatically puts the phone into recovery even if the firmware is fucked. im not sure if there is an option like that for your phone though

Likwid or any other Verizon breh,


have you guys heard anything about sales for the iPhone 4's next month? My upgrade hits soon and the girl and I want to get iPhones. She hates android.
Iphone 4G (not 4s) just dropped in price $99 8gb $149 16gb & $199. The 4S won't go on sale until a new model comes out. Apple never lets carriers do bogo's or shit like that.
