  1. will this void my warranty?
  2. does it allow me to "flash" other roms and os versions?
  3. how safe is it that i wont brick my phone?
  4. can i go back to the stock version w/ warrant IF this does void?
  5. im fairly tech saavy, but new to these SUPER smart phones and modding, if this app simple enough to give me a good time?
  6. any final words??

Thanks guys, I appreciate it.
 
1. will this void my warranty?
-Technically yes, but you can always flash back to stock if need be.

2. does it allow me to "flash" other roms and os versions?
-well, i personally used it to root my phone, and then i installed a different rom through the recovery mode/boot loader

3. how safe is it that i wont brick my phone?
-i've rooted and gone back to stock twice (just playing with it) and it worked like a charm, no issues. it just takes care of anything it needs to do, and all you have to do is click "yes" pretty much.

4. can i go back to the stock version w/ warrant IF this does void?
-yep. once you're rooted, you click on the app again, select "flash rom" and it gives you the option to flash to "stock rom (no root)" simple enough.

5. im fairly tech saavy, but new to these SUPER smart phones and modding, if this app simple enough to give me a good time?
-i pretty much started using it after having my droid for like 3 days. so i definitely didn't know what i was doing...but the app did :)

6. any final words??
-considering how easy this app makes rooting your phone, i recommend it. you dont need a computer at all to do it. you can pay the $5 donation fee through the market, or download the app for free on their website. even if you buy it, you have 24 hours to uninstall and get a refund. i have no regrets.
 
I have recently rooted with sholesmod updater and I love! Now that I am comfortable with it I have flashed my rom a few different times to try different features, which is my first question is it harmful for the phone if I flash to many times? So the last time I flashed when I used the new little block button to bring up the apps menu none of the text was lined up with the icons and the scrolling was completey screwed up when I got to the top and bottom of the menu. So today I flashed my rom again to change the theme setting to the smoked glass and now when I go into the menu all the text is lined up and it scrolls perfect now its sweet because that was driving me nuts! Don't know if anyone else had that issue...
