Remember, this ROM is Deodexed, which means the first boot will take a long time, all subsiquent boots will load fast, the bootanimation present in this ROM does not repeat, so after it finishes your screen will be BLACK, this is NORMAL.. don't worry, it will load, just be patient.. :)

Changing Font
Credit for this goes to AdamZ
If YOU mess something up or lose any of your data its YOUR fault, not anyone elses..

This is AdamZ's Droid Customizer from 2.0.1, however you

can still use it to change fonts and bootanimations, NOTHING ELSE..

so SKIP every step, excecpt for FONT and BOOTANIMATION... If you try to change something eles, you WILL be in a boot loop and have to restore,
SO MAKE A BACKUP BEFORE JUST IN CASE..

Looks very nice.... I wish I still used my droid so I could support you and use this.
Son of a .......you went to an Incredible? Are you going thru remorse? Even though it was only November when the Moto Droid came out, look how quickly things evolved for it, I'm sure the Incredible, with your help, will be just as good with root, themes and custom ROM's.

I will give this ROM a shot this week Woody and company.

Thanks!
 
Yes... once I saw the speed and the awesome exchange support I had too. I love it but I sure hope its rooted soon.

Holy crap!!!! I think people have overlooked this rom! I am guilty also I haven't tried it till today. Looks great! runs well. And for those of us who are addicted to Droid Forums it gives you a little feel of home while your away. The Notification bar and LWP's are awesome.
 
Some what new to the forum. I downloaded this ROM and installed without a hitch. Im lovin it. Great build and runs smooth. Even tho it's a year old it's the first ROM I flashed on a CricKet flashed Droid. Only question I have, "System Update" keeps asking to update to 2.2 . Can I update it or just leave it alone? Thanks in advance
 
Im using the Droid 1 an everything went fine. Just wiped everything to make sure it went fine. Like it says in the instruction, first boot takes awhile to load but boots quicker next time.
 
This is ese53. It'll work but if you are on VZW you will get update notices.

Yep for the original droid, like stated you will have update notices. and this is Android 2.1 its an older ROM but still should run rock solid, this is the DroidForums themed succulent desire rom, i forget what version of sd this was but i wanna say v 4.0
