Simple SDK setup guide

To unroot, find a stock ROM and flash it.

I unrooted to test this method, and did it by flashing the stock ROM from ROM manager.

will this rooting method will just root or erase the current rom and contents too ?

and doing the update.zip method to flash stock can work too to unroot ? cuz i kinda screwed up last time with RM... lol

[danger-rat]

It just roots.

If you wanna flash ROMs, you'll need to install a custom recovery.

If you just wanna revert back to stock, it's probably easier to just install FRG33 via the passimg method.

Okay,

STAGE 2
How do i back up my current config

Stage 2: If rooted, you can now use Titanium to back up apps and settings...

Then, install a custom recovery, and perform a full backup. You can install a custom recovery via ROM manager, or manually using adb or terminal emulator...
