Tried the tethering today and worked just as you said. You are the man.
Hey, sorry to do this to you buuuuut now that I got everything I need/want on my phone i just realized there is one step i have not done. Now brace yourself.... How do I backup my rom? (I think I heard you fall off your lazy boy).
You said once I am done (rooting) to back it (rom) up so i have something to fall back to. Cant i just use the PC36IMG file i used when i flashed it from 2.1 to 2.2?
Or is it another step entirely? And do i store it (file, image, etc.) in the sdcard and when the phone crashes or whatever just reboot into the bootloader and flash or what?
Will this backup cover all my apps and settings too or just the OS, bootloader and default apps?
One last question... is there anyway to reboot from the bootloader without taking out the battery? I mean when i go in the bootloader to look around w/out making changes.

In recovery there is an option for backup/restore. Choose Nand Backup. that will take a couple mins and you will be backed up. It stays on the SD and you can put it on your comp too if you want. Don't change the name unless you don't put spaces in it, it won't work if its named "todays backup" but it will if it is named "todaysbackup".
If you are in recovery there is an option at the top on the main screen to reboot. If you don't have a recovery, flash one.
I suggest Amon RA 1.8.0. But its up to you.
