Hello everyone, Im new to this site, new to android, new to vzw, but NOT new to modding/hacking. Ive been modding phones since back in the day with the old motorola v300's and phones like that. I switched my wife and I from Tmo - Vzw last week and got us both a pair of Droid X's. Ive been with Blackberry for the past 4 years and the lack of modding got old. Since the day Ive gotten my droid x ive been researching and messing around with it trying to basically make my phone as fast and simple as possible....
I have already rooted my phone and did a complete backup with Titanium. Ive read a lot about people either freezing the apps or renaming them instead of deleting them because of the problems with OTA updates. Now my question is can I "cut" the bloatware I dont want from my phone and save them into a foler on my pc using software like ADB or Titanium and then replace them when i need to do an update? Now im not going to go crazy removing stuff, but i just dont see the point in keeping NFS shift demo or madden 11 demo or amazon mp3..... crap like that. I dont plan on doing anything crazy just yet with different ROMs; I dont even know if its possible with eFuse or whatever it is.
Also what are good audio/video apps? Is it worth "overclocking" the phone? How do I make or install custom icons or themes? I know most of this has probably been mentioned before, but I couldnt find any exact answers. Thanks again for the help Ive gotten so far and hopefully soon ill have the whole android stuff under control. I know I have more questions, but I cant think of them right now.
