http://forum.xda-developers.com/ has information on "rooting" most HTC android devices, while http://www.droidforums.net/ covers most Motorola devices. Rooting a device allows you to install the engineering bootloader found on dev phones and flash versions of android that are not signed with the production keys. This is not provided by or in any way affiliated with Google. This will void your warranty. That said, I rooted my G1 on day one, and have been very happy with the increased functionality of my device.
Because of the lack of specificity in your post (no phone model, manufacturer, or android version), I can't be any more helpful than this. In the future, please be more specific in your questions.
