With root can I overclock to 800mhz without running any specific ROM? If so can someone post a link to a tutorial,i can't.find any.
 
It is possible though? That's what I was really wondering cause the last time I searched it was just a bunch of articles about how it can be dangerous to the phone. And idk, i dont want to flash anything yet, not really looking for anything besides overclock right now
 
ALL you need to do is go to the other DROID forum. Just search Google for that and it'll take you where you need to go.
 
Yes, it is possible. All ROMs that are overclocked use the same kernel developed by tasmanian_droid anyways.

You'll find all the info you need at alldroid.org -> developement -> droid -> tas
 
This is what I did -

First I did the simple root method from stock 2.0.1

That just gives you the superuser permissions, no busybox or anything else.

I then download DroidRootPro its a few dollars at the app store.

You need to make sure you download the tools through the app and place them in the SD card. Without the tools it will not work. To get them hit menu then select get the tools. Copy the Tools folder to the root of the sdcard.

Use the program to install busybox, and flash_image, and SPRecovery 99.0b (all needed).

And here is the simplest part, once you have done all that, click menu -> more -> overclocking options.

From here you can select any of tas' images and the phone will reboot and flash them automatically. Finally if your wifi breaks, the fix can be applied from that menu.
