I think that I rooted the phone.
Where do I get the nandroid software from, and are there installation and use instructions there?

Go here: http://www.sholes.info/2010/01/08/sprecovery-0-99-2b/

Download recovery .99.2b. It will have the Nandroid backup built in to it.

i wish my phone was lucky as your guys.... at 900mhz it died in 4hrs and just seems to left me running from OCed roms as it takes me hours now to even get "10%" of a charge up from where i was...

I've been running 900mhz along with using set cpu to set standby processor to 250Mhz and so far, i've gone through a whole day listening to music, browsing web, and making calls and my battery is at 70%

my setcpu was 900MHz/125MHz and i had charging profile 550/125mhz and sleep/standy was 250/125mhz once and i went down 20% an hour... not sure if because i was using the nexus rom and most people using 2.0.1 roms or what but it sucked.

That could be. I have moved back to 2.01 and do not have the issues you are experiencing.

followed the instructions and got mine running super fast but I can't get my wifi back up even if I follow the instructions on the bottom of the page the 2nd step that starts with cp /system...once I type it all the way out it says cp not found when I hit enter...help if you can.

blazingwolf: I download it to a PC and transfer or the same SD card directory as the update.zip file was? What do I do after that?

If you installed the flash_image then follow these directions (done on your PC):

adb shell
$ su
su
# flash_image recovery /sdcard/recovery-0.99.1b.img
flash_image recovery /sdcard/recovery-0.99.1b.img
# reboot
reboot

If not then you will need to put it on your phone (done on your phone) and then follow the above directions:

su
mount -o remount,rw -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock4 /system
cat /sdcard/flash_image > /system/bin/flash_image
chmod 755 /system/bin/flash_image
mount -o remount,ro -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock4 /system

Hell, I am not overclocking at all, running stock Android 2.01, and my Droid drains about 10% per hour of casual use. Even on standby I'd be lucky to have the battery last more than 24 hours.

I keep a backup charger at work, in the car, etc.

I wouldn't think 20% per hour is that big of a deal for a good OC.
