Dear Amit Patil,
I am Sasidharan from Kerala.I have saved you as a friend in my contact list.Being impressed by your teachings I have made it a point to root my officially updated Milestone 2.2.1 and install 2.3.4.But being a totally layman I am not at all conversant with your technical languages and there are no experts in my place here to get it done.So I am seeking your help for specific assistance for achieving this goal myself.Please don't get offended if you find some of my questions childish/harassing.It is due to my ignorance.Please bear with me and be kind enough to help me.I am putting down the points which require your clarification and guidance.
ROOTING
--------------
Once rooted my phone can it be unrooted later on?If yes,what are the steps for it?If rooted,will the Contact list,GPRS/3G settings etc in the phone will be lost?
I have done the following steps in the 1st phase of rooting.
1.Downloaded Motohelper_2.0.40_D...exe to my Windows XP Laptop.
2.Downloaded Super One click v1.5.5-S...zip along with iLvid set upv1.exe to my lap.What is the need of iLvid set up?How the Superoneclick can be unzipped?
Now getting your instructions further I shall perform the rooting action.
AFTER ROOT
--------------------
1.Downloaded OpenRecovery_v1-46....rar to the Lap.Whether this has to be unzipped?If yes,how?
2.Downloaded Update.cm-7.1.0 RC 6-11.05.26 Milestone_signed.zip to the Lap.
[To download 0.08-11.04.7.0.1(25/4/11) the website is not available in the computer.Hence not downloaded.As there came a fix,the following are also not downloaded.
0.08-11.04.18b 7.0.0
0.08-11.04.10 RC 4.1(11/4/11)
[B]0.08-11.04.05[6/4/11][B]
Since I have already downloaded the latest update cm-7.1.0 RC 6-11.05.26 whether the above mentioned in your bracket[..] are needed?Please advise.if they all are required,from where I can get 0.08-11.04.24.7.0.1(25/4/11) also?
3.Also I couldnot download Latest version of Google Apps from www.mediafire.com as I can't see the download links and the list of required apps which I don,t know.So please advise in this regard.Or else,whether these can be downloaded and installed from Market after the installation of cm update?
PRE-FLASH SET UP

Step5: What is meant by 'apply SD Card:Update.zip' ?
Step7; After Step6 whether the phone will automatically open the Menu?And is the Wipe similar to Step4?
Steps9&10oes the applying action mean scrolling to the item using Dpad and clicking the gold button?
Step11: How can I go to Main Menu and Reboot System?
Lastly one more thing.What is your opinion about Cronos Ginger 1.2 with 900MHz and 56 Vsel?Does it have better performance and battery life than CM 7.1?If yes,will you please furnish the procedure of installation of this ROM?
