I am very interested in rooting, but have been having trouble. I've never done anything like this before so even after searching the forums in threads which people have had trouble, I don't understand the solutions. I'm going to give the run through to where I am now, sorry about how little I know, am very lost.
1) I used the Idiot-Proof guide to root
2) The phone was pretty new and I hardly had any applications on there so I decided to skip to step 14 like the tutorial says.
3) Everything seemed to be going well until I tried to install the ROM, getting an error message when I tried apply sdcard:update.zip.
4) I tried to install Fresh after the first ROM not working and that didn't do anything either so I wanted to see if I actually was rooted.
5) I read that to check if you're rooted download Titanium Backup and when launching it if you get an error message you aren't rooted.
6) I got an error message so figure I did something in the actual root incorrectly.
7) I want to try everything over again, but am not sure how to go about doing that. Do I just delete the files that I downloaded in the tutorial or is there something else? I am worried I may brick my phone by just deleting things before finding out for sure first.
Once again apologize for the newbness of these questions, looking to learn more.
edit - what I was getting is "e: can't open/cache/recovery/command
