If the root access on your HTC ChaCha can’t satisfy you, as it just allows installation of root-only apps, you should move your head over to a custom recovery. A custom recovery will let you install custom ROMs which offer far more customization options that you wouldn’t usually get by installing apps. If this seems interesting to you, follow our guide below and get the ClockworkMod Recovery running on your HTC ChaCha.
