Ready to Root!

[zippy]

su, I think I have just realised that I'm not supposed to unzip it? Then it would appear as su.zip correct?

[zippy]

Whats superuser?

[danger-rat]

Correct, you want the flashable zip file...

[danger-rat]

su will give pretty much unlimited file permissions. Superuser is an sip that acts like a firewall, limiting which apps can access the su permissions...

Thanks for the help, it's now past midnight here so time for bed. I am now rooted and will look at custom roms tomorrow night. Not enough time in the day for me

Once again thank you. I am picking it all back up slowly

[zippy]

So far so good. Have installed latest cm7 and I'm happy so far!

Is there a quick way of organizing contacts or do I have to do it manually?

Thanks again for all your help

anyone know where to get the safest custom ROM? For a little dumb android phone user. Not tech savvy in android field.

I would look up cyanogen mod that is usually the best custom ROM for beginners It's pretty stable and has a stock feel while adding a bunch of new features.
