Welcome to the Darkside. If you except this journey you will brick your phone. Not only will you brick your phone but you'll lose endless nights of sleep wondering what went wrong. You'll SbF your phone back to health and pat yourself on the back, might even pound a six pack to celebrate. You'll try a theme out and maybe even brick your phone again. After months of meeting people here and getting the NEW language down these forums will no longer appear to be from Japan. You'll brick your phone. Once your back again after pledging to never ROOT again you'll flash your first ROM and announce to all and let them know that Android is the $hit!

Are you ready for this journey my friend?

Think of boostrapper as the gateway into flashing ROMs. It gives you access to clockworkmod recovery. From there you can flash and install ROMs and other goodies. Have you DL'd it yet?

Really? What do you use? This app makes it soooo easy to backup/restore, install. I'm not very tech savvy, so for me $2 was WELL WORTH IT!!!
