Well, I need a hand. I've tried both the manual method as well as the Easy, one-click, auto root out there, but I can't get root to take on this device... I think I'm probably overlooking something simple... What I need to know is... Well, everything... From start to finish.

When I connect to my PC, I have enabled USB debugging. Should I allow the SD card to mount or keep is in "charging" mode?

I have experience with the manual methods where you access ADB Shell and copy/paste commands. That's how I rooted my Hero. But I think the connection is not right somehow... I'm seeing a lot of failure messages.

Help a brother out. I need some serious hand-holding.
