Re: Rooting for n00bs?
Read this before rooting:
[Exclusive] How To Root The HTC ThunderBolt And Unlock Its Bootloader | Android News, Reviews, Apps, Games, Phones, Tablets, Tips, Mods, Videos, Tutorials - Android Police This is what I found the most helpful before flashing: [GUIDE] Rom Manager/Clockwork Mod The Effective Way When Flashing Custom Roms. - Android Forums Email/contacts/calendar are backed up to your Gmail account. Titanium Backup should back everything else up, but I haven't used it myself. There is a google backup assistant that you log into when you first setup the phone that backs up bookmarks and I'm not quite sure what else. Was never a fan of Sashimi, as it took me no more than 15 minutes to get everything else back the way I wanted it. Clockwork recovery will basically back up your existing setup intact in case of a problem. I loved Cookie, but kind of useless on Android. You can basically customize it any way you want out of the box and I just happen to be a big fan of Sense. Hope this helps |

Re: Rooting for n00bs?
Thanks for the links! Thats exactly what I was looking for. The reason I like Co0kie is because I would like to shrink the icons so I can fit 5 across, and I would really like to get a small notification bar instead of the icons and a small adgenda widget on my home screen. I also liked how I could link my weather clock to weatherbug and my alarm clock program. I havent found a way to do these yet in sense, but maybe there are some apps that can accomplish them.

As for linking weather clock, weatherbug, and alarm = Beautiful Widgets or Fancy Widget. Both will link all three things together. Check 'em out in the market. Small agenda, try Smooth Calendar. I have screen shots in the Screen Shots thread. My clock is Fancy Widget, My agenda is Smooth calender. Both are customizable down to text color even.
