Please don't do easyroot. I'm going to give you an XDA link below to follow. It's a little harder but it's well worth it. On the bottom of the page is a link to an IRC channel where you can get help if you need it. The folks in the channel are amazing and very helpful. But with easyroot you have no where to go and no one knows where you get stuck.Yes Sir right out of the box..gonna do the Calibrate battery charging method ...then the Easyroot +S -Off ...then drop the rom

Read, reread and prepare. Make sure you have a working adb. Make sure you d/l the files and keep them organized. They are large and will take some time. Good luck. Did I mention to read and reread the instructions if you decide to do this? Don't take this lightly, it's an expensive phone and you really, really don't want anything to happen to it.

i would encourage you to read thru the threads here. its only 3 pages(you dont even need to use the "search button" ),and theres a thread just a couple down from this thats addressing these exact same questions.
*also,since i had the 3rd post i decided to list some of the mods,apps,etc. that are available. if anyone finds a mod or anything else of relevance,let me know and ill add it up there so we have it all in the same place.
i thot about also linking the adb setup and root methods,but wasnt sure if that might be a good topic for a second sticky thread.
let me know what you all think- if you want a second thread ill make it and maintain it,or if youd like i can add a "root" section to the third post above
I like where your heads at, I thought of adding mods, but the 3rd post was taken before I could reserve it haha. My only concern(s) is adding mods to this thread may result in more unnecessary questions like "does it work on (insert ROM name here)", "I can't get it to work on (insert ROM name here)," etc. Plus, with only one post to work out of you may not have enough space to list all the mods available. There aren't many now, but I'm sure the list will multiply rapidly in the coming weeks. Which brings up the next concern, if you add a mod, you have to add them all, you can't just pick and chose. Don't get me wrong, I like the idea behind it, I just think it's an even bigger task than the ROMs/Kernels.
all very good points. maybe i should start another thread and reserve the first 3 posts? ill let you guys decide... whatever is cool with me. its neat being in on things from the start. by the time i got to the eris,inc,or droid 1 forums they were all very well established.
i almost think this thread should be locked,so it doesnt get to be 500 pages long with irrelevant questions

or better yet, just delete it all together
Personally I like the aosp fully senseless CM7, but that's a little ways away for the TB.
I'm living for the day I can flash CM7. It would just about give me an orgasm when it's official for T-Bolt. Best ROM out there in my opinion.
Like I said in the OP if there is a demand and people feel that this thread would be useful I have no problem maintaining it and updating it at least once daily. I'm always on here anyways so it's not that big of a deal. I think there should be one of these in every "All Things Root" sub section.
My understanding is they are close, still having issues with the RIL. But from what I understand they have gotten data to work.
BT working now. I don't think they have voice and data working together yet. If they did they could prob release it.
For some reason, the mods closed down Ziggys' thread on XDA. I went to his own site today and downloaded it and I am using it for the first time. I've never had a kernel that was so good with battery life while not sacrificing speed as this. Running it with the fabulous VirusROM rc1b3.1 senseless.
Wait until you try 1.4 Remix! 4.1b kernel.
