kobefn,
No disrespect, but you got a lot of first posts all over. Just read the various threads, stickies, and do some searching. You can a lot of questions answered by doing some initial research. Example: I need help with unlock Ken

Woops... I meant to post on this one what I posted on the link above... Oh well here it is.
I just did it a couple days ago, it was really easy! I used my Windows 7 x64 computer, so there's no problems using the newest OS. Just remember, when you unlock the bootloader you will loose all your stuff. So either make a backup or if you are like me not even think about it until you see the touch the android screen... I didn't loose anything important, it was all on Google. I just had to reinstall some apps and put my widgets back. Rooting for Noobs 101 - Learn how to root your phone here! - xda-developers Here's a nice tutorial on how to do everything. I'm sure there's more around the forum here too. |

Nor for beginners, too much left out. Below are just some of the guides I learned from. With each one I still had to RESEARCH some of the steps and I made mistakes a long the way. There are files that need downloaded and put into the tools folder of SDK and into Windows 32. All the guides seem to have diferrent steps and don't include everything a newbie like me needed. It is trial and error. Some of these guides are for different phones/builds. You need to know what build you have. Menu/Settings/Phone, scroll to bottom of page.
[GUIDE] ADB, Fastboot, and Nandroid for Noobs [Archive] - xda-developers [Guide] The 100% Fool Proof Guide: STOCK N1 to ROOT to SENSE UI/CM (Android 2.1)! - xda-developers [TUTORIAL/HOW TO] Basics of ADB - xda-developers [TUT]Complete upgrading guide(root, unroot, flashing ROM & updates) - xda-developers Video: Flashing Froyo onto Your Nexus One [ROOT] [KERNEL] [2.6.34] Quick rooter for stock FroYo systems + 2.6.34 kernel - Page 13 - xda-developers How to Root Your Nexus One :D Official Nexus Rooted Converts Thread :D Read and study them all till you got a grasp of it. I use Modaco r21 ROM below. I am a paid member and use the kitchen to bake his ROMS. He has ROMS that are very stable and is working on one that will be senseUI based. r21 is based on frf91 build. 02/Jul r21 - MoDaCo Custom ROM for Nexus One with Online Kitchen - Froyo FRF91 - Android @ MoDaCo Once rooted do a nandroid backup immediately and do them before you install new roms or even when new apps etc are done to the phone.
