  • The Droid Has Been Rooted — Now What?

    As we all know, the Droid has been rooted, now Wired Magazine explains what it means:

    A rooted Droid means the user will have administrative rights and the ability to control every aspect of the phone, not just those that Motorola or Verizon have provided access to. A person will be able to download widgets that allow them to overclock their processor or install themes that dramatically change the appearance of their phone. Cyanogen offers custom builds that truly customize a device and provides easy access to hidden features.

    For instance, why does the lower-end Droid Eris have multitouch while the high-end Droid doesn’t? Because Motorola and Verizon decided not to implement pinch-to-zoom in the Droid, even though it has the capability to do so.

    Now that the Droid is “rooted,” in modder lingo, it will be easy for someone like Cyanogen to simply turn on pinch-to-zoom in a custom build.
