I was thinking that we need a foundation thread here for absolute noobs to rooting, etal. Sort of like learning your ABCs before you can write words, and writing words before you can write sentences, etc.I m a noob myself, but I'd really appreciate it if folks could chip in (sequentially) with explanations.I have seen lots of very helpful, well written guides here, but they lack operation definitions There's so much jargon here that it's hard for a noob to really learn the basics.
