Default New to the Android world

Hey guys i switched from a crApple iphone to the fabulous evo 4g and let me tell you i dont regret it at all. I got my evo the same day it came out, couple of days later i found out about xda developers, got it rooted and since then its been like a rollercoaster, my evo became more than just a smartphone to me.

Anyways, lets cut the chase what im tryin to say is that there should be a nice guide for people like me that had no idea what rooting means and of course all the terms within like adb shell, nandroid, nand unlock, recovery, etc. If someone out there has the time it'll be really helpful. I know google is out there but i think it would be really nice to have all this information compiled in one place and what other place better than xda.

im just kidding.. well, you certainly came to the right place.. really just reading around the forums is the best knowledge your gonna get.. what information are you wanting to know about in particular? i knew nothing about android till the day i received my evo, well speaking modification wise! my wife had a hero which i enjoyed but didnt want to get deep into it since i was using a windows mobile device at the time.. but its always good to hear of an iphone user switching over to android!

in my opinion xda-developers is the best place to go for information because there is a mad number of members.. keep in mind if you ask a stupid question your gonna get an even stupider response.. you seem to know how the game is played so you shouldnt have a problem.. ppl dont like to spoon feed you here, but if you show that you need a little help here and there you shouldnt have a problem..
