[deputc26]

The Sholes team just came out with it so if you are afraid of rooting and OCing this will do it all for you fr $5 it also will automatically update you to each new release that this team builds so, like fine wine, it gets better with age.

Search "sholesmod updater" in the market.

Am I understanding this correctly, they root the Droid for a $5 fee?

Yes but that price includes a completely new kernel that has overclock settings of 800 and 1ghz and wireless tether and muti-touch default browser 2.1 gallery etc. etc. as well as OTA updates just like verizon does.

I'm not affiliated with them, but if you are afraid of rooting yourself then this is where it's at.

According to their site, they are going to release the .apk for FREE. $5 is just for donations. This looks very promising.

Very interested... What does it set the OC to? Is there a return to stock feature? If you could spell out exactly what is offered here I think it would be very helpfull...

SholesMod Updater released

This app will download and install all the files you need for root your droid, installing sprecovery, and flash the Sholes.info mod.
Available today in the market for $5. I will be releasing the .apk for free in a day or two, so if you think that $5 is too steep, you will not have to buy it. The $5 is a donation to the entire sholes.info team for their hard work, and will give you an easy way to receive future updates for the application.

I don't however see anything stating that you will be ever to overclock the phone.

I don't think the first version will have a return to stock feature but I bet a later one will as this is the first feature I thought of when I considered pimping this to those uncomfortable with a manual root/OC.

You can choose an OC of 1ghz or 800 mhz, if you choose 1ghz then 800 will be one of the clockrates used when not at full load. The proc in the droid is set to ramp up to the next highest clock setting when the proc load hits 86% I believe.
