XDA MINI S - What now?

[dodgydaz]

Hi all.

I have just bought the XDA mini S and think it is just the thing I have been looking for. However, me being me, I want to improve it and add my own stuff. So I need some answers to what are probably some very easy questions.
Can you guys please answer the following-

First - I would like to overclock the CPU so it runs apps a bit faster - I downloaded Omapclock which said my device was running at 180 Mhz. I was able to increase this to 216mhz without it freezing up.
I tried to install a link to the startup folder so it would run everytime I switched the xda on but i got confused trying to do this. Can anyone please explain in simple terms, how I can add stuff like this to the startup.

Second - I want a file manager program that lets me control where I can put my files - something similar to file manager on a PC. Is there any free software out there?

Third - Are there any other apps / programs that someone like me - ie - not really familiar with the guts of Windows mobile OS - can use and would benefit from.

Sorry for the nooby questions - I am sure these have been answered already somewhere but I have scoured the net for days and have not really gotten anywhere.

XDA-developers forums - you are my only hope :lol:

First: Startup folder only works whenever you softreset your unit. Not the one that you switch on/off (suspend/sleep/wake) your unit. Do a search on OMAP again, issue of running OMAP whenever you wake your unit have been heavily discussed (hint: notification queue)

Second: The default File Explorer can do the job you described. You did notice that it allows you to put your files where you want? Anyway Total Commander is a btter file manager.

Third: I would suggest you to read random post in this forum for information. However, for a start, try looking for backup software for your unit (you bound to make mistake). And, take notice of the dreaded 'notification queue' (search the forum) and make sure you have control over it, lots of problems (and solution) starts there.
