Hey guys I had my phone rooted but kept running in to problems then put it back to stock. After that, I did the froyo update, and Im now on stock froyo. How can I make my phone run quicker? I see people's phones like this and theyre crazy! How do I do that? [video=youtube;6pfw2nngDjw]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6pfw2nngDjw]YouTube - My awesome Samsung Fascinate!!!![/video]

Rooting while a tad risky will unlock the true potential of your phone. You can remove bloatware. Change the theme. Add a custom Rom (custom Android Operating System). And speed up the system and improve battery with kernels.

Adding a Voodoo Kernel while even more risky, will make your phone about 60-70% faster IMO.

Its really not that risky, I've flashed so many different roms, kernels, etc...its pretty dam hard to brick your phone, i wouldn't even be worried about that if you wanna root your phone

Can't to see the new videos. I finally got the paid version of launcher pro, this is by far, like you said the best launcher I've used. Don't think I will change to any other.

So is this all i do to root on a mac? Download and extract (v1.1 has device detection):
[Only registered and activated users can see links. ]
Enable USB debugging and Stay awake under Settings > Applications > Development, leave the phone in the Development window
Plug your phone into your computer
Double click root.app inside the 1-click-root folder, confirm install (process should take about a minute)
When Superuser.apk is finished installing, reboot your phone
Close terminal

Did the tutorial. It said reset adb and relogin? What does that mean.. And nothing happened after that!

I am not sure actually. Most of us have used the odin program on a pc to root here. I am unsure how the process works on the mac. They would know more over at android central about mac. Ill try to find the pc rooting link and post it.
