What to do after root?

---

So apparently i cant unlock my boot-loader. but i have my play rooted. what can i do to update firmware and overclock?

I have r800at AT&T GSM unlocked to T-Mo. The whole reason i want to do this is because games play pretty poorly.

Why cant you un lock the BL ?

You can update your firmware with flash tool still (someone correct me if im wrong) and I there is not an overclock for the stock kernel. Now that your rooted though , you can delete any bloatware apps to free some space and apply some tweaks in your build.prop to give a better user experience.

On your phone, tap Service info > Configuration > Rooting Status. If Bootloader unlock allowed says Yes, then you can continue with the next step. If it says No, or if the status is missing, your device cannot be unlocked.

Mine doesnt have that.

Also on the bloatware apps would i just delete them as any other app would be deleted?

u can remove bloatware using titanium backup.. but use it carefully

Could you link me do it?

You can unlock the bootloader but you will have to pay one of the few members on her that do the unlocking. Just search for bootloader unlock threads and you will find the names. Cost is $24.

Is there anyway i could just buy it myself and not have to go through someone else?

The test point software isn't free and even after you got it then you have to buy credits to use the software to do an unlock. I paid alejandrissimo the 24$ to do it and he makes it very fast and simple. Best 24$ I spent thus far!
