i want to be able to flash roms.
i want to be able to use wi-fi tether.

which should i do?
advantages disadvantages to both.

Thanks in advance.
 
oh, i have the first unrevoked, so i have no read/write access.
do i need to get this off my phone before i do either the unrevoked 3 or simple root?
 
I'm using unrevoked3. I've got wireless tether and have Fresh ROM flashed. It took less than 30 minutes including downloading the ROM and I did this in my local coffee shop.

How did you flash Fresh with UR3? You need NAND unlocked to flash Fresh I though? Mind explaining? I'd like to flash Fresh and I'm rooted with UR3, so.

I used ROM Manager and am rooted with UR3. I'm by no means an expert but this did what I was hoping it would which was to remove all of the bloatware that was on the phone. I don't have much need for nandroid as my apps are all backed up on appbrain and all keep the data somewhere on their servers. Rooting doesn't touch your SD card so anything on there is left alone.
