Tired of the same old Droid X theme? For those of you who have a rooted Droid X, you might want to hit up this cool NexTheme, which gives your Droid X a whole different look.
To install, download this file.
Unzip into a folder called nextheme in your SD Card.

You can also download an app called WidgetLocket, which costs money but might all be worth it if you are serious about securing your Droid X and don’t want others snooping up on you.
Of course, if you never lose your phone like me (knock on wood!), you are probably better off having no security on your Droid X, it’s rather annoying to unlock your Droid X every 5 minutes.
It has certainly been an exciting launch for Droid X yet Verizon will be launching even another phone, this time the Droid 2, which will come with a full QWERTY keyboard, 3.7-inch screen, and pretty much all the same as Droid X except with Android 2.2 Froyo. (Froyo coming later for Droid X.)

Quick Tip: For those of you who don’t own a Droid X dock but want to use features of the Droid X dock mode, you can download the DockService app to put your Droid X into Dock Mode manually.
This is a dirty, little secret that most Android users know and probably won’t last forever but if you want to download free Droid X apps, all you gotta go is google “appiwant.apk” on your Droid X, download it and install it. (replace “appiwant” with the app name!)
Now, the only catch is that sometimes it may not work because of compatibility but sometimes you will be able to get paid apps for free.
But is this ethical? Probably not and Google is already setting up measures to protect the paid app developers, which should be fully deployed by en
For those of you who want to change “This Phone Belongs to…” screen on the Droid X, here’s how to do it:
Open the launch menu and go to the Antivirus app. At the apps home screen press the menu touch button.

For those of you who can’t decide between Droid Incredible and a Droid X, here’s a review video by CNet showing you which phone is better. Personally, I think they are both great phones and I think it’s really up to the user to decide whether they need a larger 4.3″ screen or 3.7″ screen.
Also, don’t forget that Droid 2 is coming out, which wil
