Hi I'm Corey. Just rooted my Motor Droid so I thought I'd join the forum to see what's out there in the rooted world. I've had this phone for 6 months and really liking this android stuff. My next step is to start flashing rom's

09-15-2010 03:07 PMThanks. There's a lot of info here. I'm running Chevy's 1.1Ghz low volt kernel thanks to the forum. It took more time to download all the files for my computer than it did to root and overclock. I'm addicted. What proved it for me was the Quadrant test and CPU Benchmark.

09-15-2010 04:02 PMOh, your fun is just beginning! A good suggestion -- when ever you make any change to your OS (rom, theme, kernel) make a backup with SPR or ClockWork. It can save you hours of work and frustration.

09-15-2010 04:38 PMcontacts should be backed up on google. check to make sure they are so they can be easily restored after a wipe

If you wish to save data such as text, notes, phone log then you should purchase MybackUp Pro or Titanium from the market.
Your photos are stored on the SD card in a file named DCIM. When you wipe data and cache it does not touch the SD card only internal memory.
Hope this is helpful.

09-15-2010 05:19 PMAlways helpful. And I would have to re-activate the phone the same way I did when I got it?

You would start at the "touch the android to begin" screen, your phone would still be associated with your mobile number, and activated
