Newbie here, just rooted my phone, used z4, now.....I only really rooted it to get a good Screenshot app working and to remove those unwanted apps that came with the phone that I NEVER use, so who has some recommendations?

ShootMe and PicMe are confusing as hell. I took a screenshot with ShootMe, found it in my files, but can't figure out what to do with it from there. I can't even find it on my computer with my cell plugged in.

Any other things I might like now that I'm rooted? Feel free to suggest them to me :D

P.S. I need FREE apps, cuz I'm poor, lol

my favorite screenshot app is drocap 2

it's free and really easy to use once you get it set up. it has options for a timed trigger or a trigger that sits in the status bar.

What phone do you have?, I'm seriously considering rooting, but nervous. Once you root is your phone the same, just with more access/privileges? Or like does it strip the phone bare and you have to dl stuff to make it work. (ya I know, get your newbie lols out)

I used z4 root, it didn't change anything. I have a Droid 2 Global. It just allows you to have more privileges on your phone like installing certain apps you couldn't before, changing things on your phone like you couldn't before. Gives you a lot more access to your phone I guess.

z4 root was so easy too, just installed it on my phone, opened it up, and clicked 1 button and I was done.

That sounds so damn tempting. I'm in south Africa, and I doubt we're getting upgraded past 2.1 which is what I'm running now. I'd love to root it so I can upgrade to 2.3 or get one of those awesome roms I keep hearing about. But I hear rooting can brick your phone? If I try root this brand new damn expensive phone, I'm screwed. Advice?
