Motorola Milestone (Droid) Froyo, some little works to do

It's time to put something new on this old Motorola Milestone (Droid in the Usa).



So, what do?

First point, a new launcher, the Froyo's launcher is *blearhg*.
For me the best is Go Launcher Ex for some reasons:
- better app drawer
- creation of directories in the app drawer and in the desktops
- gestures (if you want)
- possibility to hide dock bar and status bar (notify bar)
- multiple desktops (like original android home launcher)
- multiple docks
- widgets scaling
- choosing the grid dimension on the desktops
- choosing how icons appear on the desktop (black label, alpha label, no label etc...)
- tons of other stuff

This launcher works great in this phone (that has low ram)

Second point, rooting phone.
With the "root" you can use your phone as a super user, with this utility you can choose to grant SU permission to an App (Titanium Backup, etc...).

Third point (I'm in this point), trying the overclocking.
Poor battery! But, it's only for testing purpose.

(There are many overclock utilities in the market)

PS: Use at your own risk, I do not take responsibility for your actions!

Next steps? A custom rom I suppose...

...and a list of the MUST HAVE apps...

Minecraft update: 1.1 version

There is the 1.1 upgrade for Minecraft


Oooook.

Broken Sword, play it on your mobile phone


These great adventure-games finally on your smartphones!
I played them on my Playstation (the first) in the 1999/2002 (I have skipped the school for some days to play them).
Ops! I discovered that they were free few days ago... :_(

Ok, these are for iOS, but for Android?
Take a look there: http://myhtcdesire.com/tag/broken-sword

The iOS versions are remastered and optimized for a better mobile experience (big dialog baloons, etc), the ScummVm version is not (but you can survive to this).

PS:
if you have a Win Pc you can play the Broken Sword 2.5 game, search it in this blog, no, I link it:

Are you Rorscharch?

Are you a fan of Rorschach?
No, not this guy:
Hermann Rorschach looks like Brad Pitt
and no, not his test.
I'm talking about this Rorschach


Ok, you are a fan and the Halloween is coming (yeah, just 10 months), so... there is a website that sells his mask in 5 different versions with the motion blur of ink.
