Well, I finally got the courage and rooted my phone and it was way, way easier than I ever thought possible. I am on At&t and so have the 317. I guess I rooted because I do what the multi-tasking etc.
The phone is working fine as is. I've already removed some of the bloatware i.e. at&t navigator. Why would I pay for a service that I can get for free from google or WisePilot that is a one time fee for the life of the phone and works great!!!! Even Mapquest does a great job.
At any rate, now it's time to install a custom rom or is that flash a custom rom. I've got cleanrom 3.3 dogeared but want to explore my options. I want the best rom that will give me multi tasking etc. I've also seen Omega Rom but it keeps saying its for 7100 which is the international version so not sure about that.
Right now, I have go launcher installed over touch whiz. Basically, I like go launcher because you can transition screens in different ways. I guess I like the flashy stuff but then again, I could do fine with just plain touch whiz.
So I'm looking for custom rom referrals which are stable, easily used by techno idiot and has the bennies of multi-tasking etc, ability to store apps on sd card, etc.
Also, if I were to install cleanrom 3.3 could I still run go launcher over it as I do touch whiz???
These are the directions for installing clean rom.
