Hi - welcome to the forums!
I'm sure before long, someone will help you - I'm not expert enough myself.
I do want to give you this sage advice - fortunately - you've left off your area code.
PLEASE DON'T POST SUCH PERSONAL INFO IN THE CLEAR!
Instead, invite others to PM you - that means to send a private message - you can get to that via the link above that says User CP, then later on that page - Inbox. It's a little forum email thing.
Also - from that User CP page - you can enter in your Yahoo or AIM or whatever chat id and it will give a little icon under your username. That opens the door for another way for someone to click to link to you, and just chat.
Now - kindly look under your post - there's a button that says Edit - use that, remove your number.
Android Forums is a very friendly place.
The internet is not a safe and friendly place - and there's spamming and identity-stealing software that automatically runs looking for open email address, phone numbers and anything else personal they can find to use against you.
Now - if you're running Windows - here's a step by step guide with pictures that I found dead simple and effective when I rooted on my lonesome a few months ago:
[TUTORIAL] IDIOT-PROOF Root Guide! NAND Unlock and ADB Update!! - xda-developers
And since then - they've made it way super-simple - using a method called Simpleroot -
[Program] SimpleRoot .1 ---- 3 Click Root w/ nand unlock!! - xda-developers
The brain trust around here is saying that's the way to go.
Kindly consider this thread, read it through -

And maybe you'll find you can get by without the direct help.
Please be sure and certain - I'm not criticizing your request in any way - just trying to guide you as best I can at this point.
Best luck, hope this helps!
