Hey everyone, first time poster. Been looking around the forums for a while now. And i'm a little confused as to what I should do with my phone.
Over the past spring break my old phone died after work one day. I went into Verizon the next day. Got a new phone... Droid Eris.
I love my phone and all. But I love customization. Now this is probably the most Theme-able device ive ever had without Hacking. But options are limited.
I Got Open Home, and GDE. Used those for a while. and I like those. Sense is meh...
But lately i've been noticing a lot of lag as well. I can barely finish a text without my phone lagging... >.< I would like to speed it up....
But I would also like to keep my warranty intact, I've seen some options. Updating to the Leak 2.1 v3 or Rooting. of these two I would prefer rooting... I like options lol like i said. and 2.1 v3 traps you on 2.1 v3 forever (as of now >.< )
Both of which seem to void warranty...... So my question Is... What should i do with my phone?? Is it worth it to say F*ck the warranty and root? is there something (BESIDES TASK KILLER!!!) that i can install to make the ENTIRE phone run faster?
EDIT: OH!!! and i forgot. One of my big fears in rooting is the set up process after the root. Like will I have to call some Verizon number and re activate my phone like they did when i first got it?? Scared lol
Thanks in advance!
