    Root Is there a way to run a shell command from the SD card?

    I managed to semi-brick my phone over the weekend while trying to make it stop booting into bootstrap recovery after removal from the AC charger. Following some advice on another forum, I went into /system/bin and renamed hijack and logwrapper. But in my half-asleep, awake-for-24-hrs stupor, I...

    Help Android OS using 70% of resources

    I recently rooted my phone and the other day I installed Launcher Pro. I have everything set up the way I want it, but I've noticed that my battery has REALLY been draining quickly. I checked the system resource usage, and in the past, the Display is always be biggest resource thief, but...

    Root Liberty question

    I just rooted my phone using SuperOneClick, and then installed ROM Toolbox which seemed an interesting thing to have. I have a D2 with GB 2.3.3, but I find it a bit slow, and I'm constantly clearing the keyboard cache because of the freezing. I'm thinking about trying out Liberty after reading...

    More accurate battery app?

    I've been looking for a battery widget to tell me my remaining charge state as a percentage, but so far all of them go in increments of 10% (i.e. 90% left, to 80%, to 70%, etc). Does anyone know of one that breaks it down a little more finely?

    Pandora, Last.fm, Slacker, etc keep stopping.

    So I'm in my 2nd week of Droid 2 ownership, and I love the thing. I've loaded all my mp3s onto it, and listen to them using Winamp. No problem whatsoever. But sometimes I like a bit of variety, and since I've been a Last.fm member for a while, I decided to install their app so I can listen...

    Help Upgrading SD card

    Hi everyone. First post here, and new Droid owner. I picked up my Droid 2 this past Saturday, and immediately ordered a 16GB Transcend Class 6 micro SD card for it. To install it, I plugged my Droid into my PC (Linux machine), un-hid all the hidden files, copied them to my desktop, then...
