*this was tested to work as of January 16, 2010 on the motorola droids latest build 2.0.1
Ok, so first you need to be rooted. The easiest, most noob friendly guide can be found at this link.
Obtaining Root - Root Your Droid
after following those stebs, download the droid root tools from this link...
http://rapidshare.com/files/336479648/RootingTools.zip
then, extract the file and put the tools folder (the actual folder named tools, not the contents) on the root of your sd card. also put the DroidRootHelper.apk on the root of your sd card. then download astro file manager from the android market. open astro file manager and, while on the root of your sd card, click on the DroidRootHelper.apk you just copied over. Then, click install and follow the installation procedure.
*Note: you must have the checked the box that says Unknown sources in your settings > applications on the android launcher (NOT IN ASTRO).
After you have sucessfully install DroidRootHelper, launch the application and click the following buttons in the following order.
Mount system 3 then 4
Rename recovery
Install busybox
Install flash image
Flash boot animation
Flash SirPsychoS's recovery
Reboot recovery
*you should see a yellow android as the background and “Patched by SirPsychoS” @ the top
now you might want to perform a nandroid backup (recommended) just incase you do something wrong. to do this from the screen you are at (if you already exited it, turn off the phone and turn it back on while holding down the power button and the X button on the keyboard) navigate down to backup/restore using left and right on the dpad. select it using the dpad, and than select simple nandroid backup. it will perform the backup, than you press power to go back to the main menu and than select reboot system now using the d-pad.
Now when it restarts, you will have the new Nexus One Boot Animation installed.
Now go to your app launcher and make sure you see the App named SuperUserPermissions
If you have the nexus one boot animation and and the SuperUserPermissions app with a little ninja icon, than everything worked.
Now for the droid multitouch browser. Download the file from this link
http://rapidshare.com/files/336480962/mtbrowser.zip
and extract it. copy both browser.apk and libwebmtcore.so to the root of your sd card. Then download Terminal Emulator for free from the Android Market. Launch it and type these commands in one at a time and press the enter key (the button directly below delete on the hard keyboard) after each one.
su
mount -o remount,rw -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock4 /system
rm /system/app/Browser.odex
cat /sdcard/Browser.apk > /system/app/Browser.apk
cat /sdcard/libmtwebcore.so > /system/lib/libmtwebcore.so
mount -o ro,remount -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock4 /system
sync
reboot[FONT="]
*Note: when i typed the [/FONT]rm /system/app/Browser.odex it said file does not exist, yet it still worked for me. Some people say this could cause problems down the line, but if it didnt exist in the first place on my phone (i checked ) than it is basically deleted.
[FONT="]now when it reboots open your browser and try pinch to zoom. Your Done!
