Hi,

Does anyone know if there is an app on android market that flashes your phone for you? How about one that roots it? I'm have no idea if this is even possible, but it would sure be great, since there are a lot of non technical people out there who would really like to try all the new fancy roms around.

thanks

Rafa
 
Universal Androot will root with one click. Don't think it is in the market but you can find the apk with a quick google search.
 
Everybody is talking about 'rooting' and 'flashing' their phones, and about installing 'ROMs'. What is that all about?
What is 'rooting' a phone? And why would I want to do it?

doctorbabe was just trying to share all the great info that is available.
Rooting your phone will allow you to customize it to work in ways that the stock configuration won

UA is okay, but unrEVOked (link) is even better and more painless. Just click the right phone (pictured) and download the "reflash_package.exe" file when prompted to do so.

Then follow the instructions in the Rooting FAQ section of whatever phone you're using (scroll down and find your phone here). Don't over-read, most threads about it just say basically the same thing. Just pay attention to the threads w/ stickies right on top of the forums.
