I was also wondering how do you learn to do this. I can root it following their directions but what do i have to know or learn to do what they do.

How do people learn how to root phones? im interested in learning how

does that make sence..lol

i dont think 1/100 people know whats actually going on when they root their device, but its cool you want to know.. i dont know all of it myself, but im pretty sure it starts with a buffer overflow then it pushes files with special permissions to the device, this gives you user level root access.

If your interested in understanding, good places to start would be a c or c++ course, then move from there to console based Linux, when you feel comfortable with bash, cron, init, etc you'll be well on your way to understanding how one hacks or roots a phone.

Edit:
intently those same skills can land you a great many jobs
