Root what have you done with your rooted dinc?

I installed RomManager, Titanium backup and SetCPU. I deleted a bunch of unused bloatware, loaded up the optical trackpad wake, set up some good CPU profiles. That's about it. I tried to load a different boot animation but that didn't seem to work. I'm interested in different kernels to save battery but not quite sure how all that works just yet.

Go into ROM Manager, Download Rom, Ihtfp69, Goodies for 2.2+, Click Download, then it will bring up a list of things you can download. Choose Optical Joystick Wake and go through the steps. It will install on your phone for you.

Only issue is it will work 100% of the time when the phone is plugged into a charging port but will work maybe 75% of the time when it is not. When it is unplugged you often have to hit the button multiple times or just hold down the button for a few seconds. I think there is a setting on the Dinc that disables the button when the phone is not plugged in to a charging port so that when it is in your pocket it wont register any of the swipes on the joystick part. Wish there was a fix for this but there isn't...

Thanks alot. Just what I needed a step by step walkthrough Rom Manager to get to where I needed to go. Works great with stock Sense.
