How 2 - ADB, Root, Reflash, Nandroid, Apps, Roms. Beginning to End

[Kedar]

Hey guys. Like me, many of you have come from another phone to the Evo and are fairly new to Android. The technical jargon was getting to me... flashing, adb, nand lock, recovery, blah blah.
I came from the Pre, where hacking was just installing WebOSQuickInstall and Preware... From there, we could get patches, themes, and lots of other love.

So I came here and did end up rooting my phone. It was becoming so overwhelming though... that I unrooted using an RUU and did the latest OTA update.

However, there's a guide:

How 2 - ADB, Root, Reflash, Nandroid, Apps, Roms. Beginning to End
This was created by dreamersipaq @ XDA. Not my work...

I know I'm going to be reading that tomorrow morning cause I still have no freaking idea what ADB is...

That kind of guide is nothing new.

Thank you for bringing that to our attention. I have spent hours searching and reading post after post on several different sites about these same topics. Trying to piece all of these things together can be a confusing and laborious task, especially for many of us n00bs. Having it all in one place is surely convenient.
