droidmod 1.0

[Roy Aguilera]

Its all about taste
I went with

Install
2.1 Keyboard (w/ Speech Dictation)
2.1 DeskClock
Milestone Browser (MT) (has pinch zoom!)
Youtube HQ
News and Weather Widget
Wifi Tether
HQ Video
2.1 Music
2.1 Gallery3D (Picasa, MT)

Remove
Corporate Calendar
Remove Visual Voicemail Stub
Remove Amazon MP3 Store
Remove Facebook

This works for me.
The beauty of the app is that you can configure that ROM to your liking. Rule of thumb is "If you don't know what it is, you don't need it".
Have fun loading it up.

oh and is the 2.1 launcher worth using I hear its a bit buggy?

Its pretty buggy.

 

[bmderuosi]

thank you sir you are a gentleman and a scholar

the good thing about this mod is that the technology does almost all the work for you, its hard to mess it up and if you do the nandroid backup will fix it for you. Dont be scared to root and install this rom its fairly easy and well worth it. And hey, if you dont like it, going back to stock is only a few clicks away

So I switched to this last night really wasn't that impressed. It was stable but not that fast even at 1.2ghz I guess I expected more from it. Oh well

 

[JGR4444]

I like the concept of Visual Voicemail, just not the price tag, bugs, and lack of functionality compared to Phone Fusion Visual Voicemail.

Somebody should post a description of every feature that you can choose from in DroidMod.
I'm sure I could figure all them out myself, but it would make rooting and moving that much easier to do!
For instance, I had no idea the Milestone had a coverflow version of the music app.

Quit Bragging (haha) I just CAN NOT get the f'ing theme to load thru metamorph. How'd you do it?

 

[droid 8172]

Go to metamorph, check the download file, and the theme you downloaded should be there. It took me ALL f'in day to figure it out, but after trial and error, I finally did it. Let me know if you got it working..

Yea, I rooted last week and didn't even know it was there!! pretty cool huh?

I downloaded the smokedglass v2 zip and put it in the androidthemes folder on the sd card, when I open metamorph it says "no files" in sdcard/androidthemes. when I look at the folder thru astro - it's there. WTF?

 

[droid 8172]

leave it in the download file.

 

[prometheus]

leave it in the download file.

what download file? I downloaded it on the PC and moved it to the SD card. Do you mean download directly to the sdcard right from the droid's browser?


Edit: Never mind, got it -- thanks droid 8172 for the idea to go directly frommthe download file. For anyone having difficulties with this... email this link to your droid.. http://www.mediafire.com/?ujiynnjmmrt then downlaod the file straight to your sd card and open MetaMorph and instead of going to the "androidthemes" folder go to the "download" file...
