have checked and usb debug was connected...

after I typed in the commands in the shell...nothing happens...

do I NEED full root with NAND unlock to flash ROMs really? I'm already on OMJ's
Yes, try with Charge Only.

You need full root to write to /system and to do restore without a PC (ROM Manager does this but it's not exactly the same)

With the ability to write to system we can pull/add apps to /system/apps vs only /data/apps as we can now, without full root. There be more benes but I'm still learing

You can flash ROM's now obviously, but my *GUESS* is that you may not be able to flash future ROM's that are written for full root. That is just a n00b guess though
