Don't be sorry. Just learn to search. Hell or even just go into the correct section and just open your eyes.

Lil harsh but I thanked you anyway but I was asking what's the best way because it looks like its more than 1 way to do it.

To be fair, you could've been flamed way worse than that!
Best way to root is to follow the guide you understand the most and seems the clearest, or to use one of the one click solutions. One way is rarely better than another, but some are easier. Either way, you need to do some reading and understand what you're doing.

Alright thanks I have a gnex just wanted to see if its the same way to root because it is a nexus device that's all I wanted to know if there is a one click method out I'll use it thanks for the help

WugFresh's Nexus Root Toolkit v1.5 was featured on XDA's frontpage, this could turn out to be the most used root tool for the Nexus 7

How do I get Froyo?

I feel kind of odd for asking this, but see, I am going on a long roadtrip Monday and the Boinix v 1.3 rom i was using the battery kept going dead so fast no matter how much i re-flashed it. So, I decided to use odin to get back to stalk and wiped all user data and cache and now I am stuck at stock 2.1 update 1.
How did you get Bionix on your phone in the first place?
Just look thru the stickies. It contains all the info you are looking for.

Wait, what? How the hell did I permit anything or ever exchange words with you EVER?
All of this talking, and not many answers.
Mini kies is what you used to get stock froyo, officially.
since you have root, I would backup, wipe, flash a new rom (trigger), and recalibrate your battery. All of which is in my signature.

Ty, I think I will do that because Trigger seems to be one of the best out there as of now.
Non -productive...
Why is the insulting and no-productive comment tolerated here. Te users should not make the decision of if the is the right place for a Question, but rather help and move along. There is a reason that there are forum moderators. I just wish that people knew their place, rather than try to be the forum police.
Glad the answer help, and I hope you have fun on your trip.

I would just flash the powerwashed rom...its already rooted. Read the guide I posted in the q/a section.
If you only want root then type " how to root froyo or gingerbread on fascinate" in google as previously mentioned.
+1 for the power washed rom
Droidstyle posted the "STEP BY STEP " guide, and works FLAWLESSLY , you cant go wrong. very easy to follow.

Yep, google must be broken again and atm I don't have any clean silverware to spoon feed you with. So, it looks like you're gonna have to learn like everyone else. And if worse comes to worse, just throw away your phone and get a bionic, development won't even be an issue with it. Good luck

Hi everybody, I just bought a HTC Desire HTC after my SGSL, so I'm new to it ! can anyone tell me where to find a thread for begenning things like flashing, rooting, ....

When you signed up, you agreed to a little thing called searching.
Sorry bub, but we do need a little effort on your part before we start helping you out.
After you have searched a little, sure, come back and ask what you need.

Great post to use when rooting for the first time
Thank's guys
This is the only tool you need to root and gain an unlocked bootloader.

Download the advanced ace hack kit and read its manual. Don't use HTCDEV to unlock your bootloader that will only give you problems later.

And what about Installing custom ROMs ?
You've shown no initiative by searching, the answers are there, its in your interest to find them.

[Q] Just Rooted My N4 What Next?

Hello X-da community stoned_pirate here and I guess I will gingerly call myself a developer. Well Im learning all about the develop process. So I just rooted my phone and it was a success. Watched a vid by mskip, boy does he simplify things a lot. So ive also installed goo manager I heard the name in the vid. So do I flash a kernel next or rom? Can I do this from goo manager? A simple break down of whats next would be kindly appreciated.
Thx,
SP
Learn how to use fastboot and adb and don't ever use a toolkit again

No real breakdown of whats next since thats up to you. May I suggest you go to wiki page for our phone or check any of the stickies in development or general and simply read up on your phone. Many choices for you! Quite a few roms and many more kernels, read up and see which ones you like
since you mentioned it. Flash rom first, Kernel second.
OK so I need to flash s ROM and then kernel. Will this allow me to utilize 4glte when possible? Also can I flash a ROM and kernel from goostore?

no. you need to do some modification first before you can use lte on tmobile or any other company that uses band 4 lte(not very common). look in the lte thread for instructions http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2211618
btw, after reading this, i cant even gingerly call you a developer. first thing that you need to do is start reading up about whats available or even basic procedures. starting a thread asking people where to start will not do you any good.

Which Rom are you using?
SuperSU?

During setup, SuperSU was one of the choices, then there was another with a similar name (I forget what the other option was at the moment.)
That is, assuming I understand your question correctly.
2 exploits that were available did not work. There was even some hesitancy to install it in the first place because an alert said Google recommends you don't install this because it contains suspicious code (not in those words, but you know what I mean.) I went ahead with installation because I didn't hear any negative talk about it after a little searching through the internet.
Questions go in the q&a forum, report your own post and ask a moderator to move it.
Instead of taking the chance of bricking your phone, why not follow the routing guide in the sticky thread?
