So i have searched the forums for answers but can seem to get a clear picture of what i need to root.
here are a few things i am unsure of
Lots of ROOT and ROM guides talk about altering or loading (flashing?) files on the SD card. Do they mean an actual removable SD card? or the location "sdcard" that is in my phones internal storage (/mnt/sdcard)?
Do i NEED or is it highly recomended that i use a PC to Root, backup, or flash ROMs to my phone? (I have a Mac)
What does "flash" or "flashing" mean when talking about ROMs? is it the same as "load" or "loading"?
Who makes these different ROMS? Can I make a custom ROM? Can i preview them on some sort of emulator?
Thanks in advance.
