Motorola Droid Android 2.1 Custom ROM and New Look
youtube! Hey guys, Just like I stated this video is just a show off of what I got going down on my phone. I have a custom ROM called Smoked Glass v2.5. This rom includes many features of the 2.1 android software that should be available soon. Some of the features include a new gallery, multi-touch browser, new widgets, new launcher, live wallpaper, new music app, etc. Now don’t get ahead of yourselves, this is a CUSTOM rom which means this is a gathering of multiple apps and widgets that MIGHT be included or rumored to be in the 2.1 software that should be hitting are phones soon. Here are some links to help you get started in Rooting your phone and maybe getting this whole CUSTOM look on your phone. How to Root your Droid rootyourdroid.info Smoked Glass ROM www.droidforums.net Great tutorials and Great Forum androidforums.com Great place to see the latest ROMS and new developments www.alldroid.org As stated in the video, if I get enough interest on how to do this I will make a video and do my best to show everyone how to do this. Cheers -droidreview

Does this break the GPS? I hear that when you root the GPS doesn’t work.
Anyway, would love to see a video on how to root this. Keep up the good work and thanks for sharing.

It is not illegal. There no where that it says so. The OS is open software so people are open to tinker with it like HTC or Moto Blur or Cyanogen with custom ROM.
What do you risk is bricking your phone if yo don’t know what you are doing by the general user. If you post at least check your info before spreading unwarranted rumors and fear.

Very nice vid man. I’ve been waiting patiently for 2.1 and expected in on the 22nd, but no luck. I don’t really want to root the droid, so I’ll continue to wait for the OTA updates for 1 more month before I do it. My take: 5 homescreens looks good. Multitouch for native broswer…meh, I’m used to the double tap so I don’t care. The app menu looks nice, as does the news widget. I am looking forward to live wall papers too! Sucks about the comma tho. 1:28 looks like WW-D, not Beauti Widgets

THIS IS NOT ILLEGAL.. Please show me in the Penal code that tampering with your own paid equipment is illegal. If anything the worst you can do is void your warranty. But if your smart and learn how to back up your ROM you will never brick your phone. So NO its not illegal…

@coslam52395 kinda, cuz if u do this, u do risk bricking your phone and violating the warranty. so it is all up to the user if they want to do it or not.
