(PK, Etimago, Kioshi, Altitude, etc.) could you kindly give us root-noobs some pointers so we don't have to roam each and every thread @ XDA ? :-)

Links, tips and tricks greatly appreciated

Simply and easy. I suggest reading the instructions at least 3x..3 TIMES!
Not saying you are illiterate....its just...i did the same as i wanted to do everything correctly w/o bricking the phone.

Once you learn it, it becomes second nature to root your phone if you ever get a replacement....or flash different roms.

@ tomato - try unrevoked as well....its super easy to root with that one too. Actually, thats what i used twice to root.

P.S - Almost all NCVC members have Android phones if not rooted haha....not sure about the ones i have not met yet.

Great read, thanks!! I agree with you, careful reading *ahead of time*

could prove very useful.

I checked out unrevoked briefly. There is an app for that, too?!! Figures! Great stuff, thanks

Those of you who have rooted, any surprise or things I should know?

Dont flash beta roms....they will be unstable. You wont be able to make calls and a whole other boat load of stuff.

Just flash CM7 and call it a day. Its stable enough to use everyday.

Or look at HTC custom roms that have been in development for a long time, those are the ones to go for.

Other than that, no surprises tomato.
