Rooting Is Unlocking Your Phone From The Original Settings And Codes Set By The Manufacturer

Pros OF Rooting
1. Custom ROM
2. Custom Apps
3. Overclocking And Exploiting The Phone's Full Potential
4. Geeked Up Droid

No Cons.

Just Make Sure You Lock It Back If You Are About To Take It In For Repairs.

Yeah the app he used for the above pic is called "Desktop Visualizer" and its free in the Market. The link for the icons he used is on Page 2 or 3 of this thread. To get it to the size you like on your screen you'll have to long press on the homescreen>>choose Widgets>>find Desktop visualizer and then play around with the sizes until you find one that looks right

thanks for helping me out:)

i tried doing it that way...and the icons did get bigger...but not as big as the screen shots shown on here...they still turned out pretty small...no matter what size i choose

does my phone need to be rooted to control the size of the picture:confused:

On my phone, which isn't rooted, i'm using the 2x1 horizontal size and the icons are pretty big. You can choose sizes up to 4x4

are you using a launcher? like Launcher Pro, or ADW? If so, long press on the icon and a border will appear around it, take your finger and drag it to how big you want it to be. If its a small icon, you will have to start from scratch and choose a different size with the Desktop Virtualizer (this is if you are using Launcher Pro, with ADW you dont have to start from scratch, just long press, select edit and find the icon)

also, if you are using any of these launchers, you can change the amount of space for the icon support, you can raise it to 5 (to get the 5x? effect) icons or keep it at 4.
