Download this file

Follow this guide if you need extra help
http://rootyourdroid.info/guides/full-system-backup-using-nandroid/

Step 1
Download DroidRootHelper and Terminal Emulator (Jack Pelvich) Both can be found FREE in the market.

Step 2
Open DroidRootHelper, Click menu and download the TOOLS – Click on GET THE TOOLS

Step 3
After downloadin the TOOLS from DroidRootHelper, you must extract them (becuase its a zip file) to the root of the sd card. Keep the folder named TOOLS.

Step 4
Mount Mtdblock4
Install chmod Busybox
Install chmod flash_image
Flash Recovery 99.1b
Rename Recovery
Unmount System mtdblock 4
Sync
Reboot Recovery

Step 5
In recovery mode create a back up file using advanced nandroid back up, Check all boxes then click perform backup, once done use power button to cycle back out, and reboot.

Step 6
Update recovery to latest version- Copy Recovery-0.99.2b.img file to the ROOT of your SD card, you must be mounted via USB to do so. Now you can use Terminal Emulator to input the commands shown on my monitor, this will update you to the 99.2b.

Step 7
Rename the backup file you just created, mount your phone via USB, locate your backup inside the folder called Nandroid, click on the folder that says BSD-0009879- etc… right click and rename the folder to what you are comfortable with, copy that folder to your desktop or location that you want to save it to on your computer.

Step 8
Open up terminal emulator and type in commands EXACTLY like I am showing… Then reboot recovery and your done =D

Okay first off, Thank you again for all your great comments and thank you all for subscribing to my videos, this one took a bit longer to get out because of the lack of “decent” games on the market right now. I briefly went over the reason why there isn’t too many “cool” games on the Android platform yet, but hey if you want mobile gaming, go get a PSP or something. These are the games that I have been using the past few weeks, Hopefully you enjoy them as much as I do:

What the Doodle
Totemo Lite
Abduction
Frozen Bubble
Action Potato

Most of these games are very simplistic, but very entertaining and fun. Again please bear with me as I am just an amateur reviewer and don’t really have great equipment to use to make these reviews, so go easy on me =D

PS- Stay tuned for the next GAME or APPLICATION review coming soon, also be on the lookout for my next video, Tips and Tricks for the motorola droid.

Cheers

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.
