- jjsz 14y agoIf you're just starting out, you don't need to run any scripts, battery tweaks, or do any overclocking. A ROM is just another OS for your phone. In order to overclock, do mods, or run scripts you need SuperUser, in Linux that means Administrator. In order to get SuperUser you need to root your phone.
