***Thanks To |Melvin| and Slayher for ROOTING the phone, i just created this small guide for you all to use.
You would think when doing a tutorial on how to do something,you would make sure everything is working. The clockwork recovery is doing nothing but spinning around in circles.Sort of like my life...In circles and going absolutely nowhere. But i do apologize ahead of time if i'm doing something wrong. But it's just a link how can i be doing that wrong? Just click and go.right?

Same directions as above post, all the links are working.
That's my question too. I want to root tonight maybe, but I'm not sure which ROM to go with. I'm interested in the leak of ICS for the Skyrocket. Anyone know if there's an SSH server listening on that one?
