12-30-10, 08:07 AM #1Quick Rooting Question
So I am getting my dad's old Moto DROID from him, because he is getting a newer phone. I know I want to root this thing, and have a basic idea of how to do it. However, the one thing I do not know is how to get my phone information onto it. Should I take this to a Verizon store pre-root to get my information put on it, or can they still do this after the process?
Why no rank?
Because that isn't why or how I play.

They can't transfer phone #'s from traditional cellphones to any of the Android phones. It has to do with the integration with Google/Gmail. The one positive is because it uses Google/Gmail contacts, you can at least edit/create your contacts using a PC rather than typing them in on your phone.

Yeah. Basically you do a factory reset on the Droid... and when it boots, it'll prompt you for your Google account info. It'll pull all your contacts from Google and place onto the Droid. The only bad thing about the process is you need to re-download all your apps, although if you have any paid apps you bought through the Google Market will be remembered and you can re-download for free.
