The black box appears but runs so fast I can't read what it says. It doesn't do anything to my phone. No Superuser or anything like that. Am I clicking on the right thing, the adb.exe? Odd!

I see D has it under control. Get that Bionic rooted and get SS3 on there...after that, you're in for a whole new world of awesomeness!! :icon_ lala:

I'm an original Droid'er and ran Bugless Beast for years. Rooting seems a lot easier than back in those days. Problem with me is I haven't tried to install any new roms in a long time. Some of the terminology is a bit confusing but I'm sure with a little help I'll be able to get it installed. .....I hope. lol

Ok, Safestrap installed and I have downloaded Blurry Maxxx. Now that I have it downloaded, what do I do next? Do I put the winrar file directly on my sd card or do I extract then put it on my sd card? Thanks!..........
I tried both ways and it won't install. In an earlier post I said it was easier to install roms now. I lied. It used to be put the .zip on your card, boot into recovery then wipe then install zip and you were done. I think my main problem is winrar. that program sucks compared to winzip. IMO. lol...I'll give it another shot tomorrow.

What you do now is place ROM on SD card ext and boot into safe strap and create a slot with 1 gig. Then go to install and choose blurry maxx 3.8 and move the slider over to install. Reboot.

Do not extract the ROM. Just place it on ext SD as it is

I got this rom loaded but it won't let me (or it doesn't have) Swype. I need Swype, it's the only way to type, for me. deduct, thanks again for all your help!

You can swype with the keyboard that is stock on the ROM.

Here's an interesting thing. Since installing this I have received two text messages from "6250" with this " vzwnmn:1" Anyone know what that is?

Ugh...I had the same happen. Some say u can block it from the site...but I couldn't get it to stop, so I called Verzion and they blocked it for me.(took 2 min)

What it is, is a verzion txt alert telling u that u have a email in whatever account u linked on the phone. I thought that was a waste, sense we receive email alerts directly on our phones! :p

6250 spells mail on the key pad.
