Hi, Here is a pretty good description of how to root your G1 phone. http://androidandme.com/2009/05/guides/beginners-guide-for-rooting-your-android-g1-to-install-cupcake/ Of course there is always a risk that during rooting something goes wrong. Make sure that you charge your battery before you start the process. You don't won't that during flashing and rooting your device that the device turns of. Also follow exactly the steps in the same order.

[android-beginners] Re: Rooting?
If you follow the instructions you should be fine. In case of you messed up one of the steps you could start from a previous step if you know what you did wrong. If not you might have to start from the beginning of the procedure. The procedure is reversible if you have the original image files. If your phone switches off during the flash procedure (because off your battery was not charged enough or other reason) you have to send in your phone to get it fixed. If you have a JTAG cable you might be able to fix things on your own. In general rooting should be a pretty safe procedure but it is similar to when you go to the doctor and have to sign a paper before the surgery.

you do not need to root your phone to develop applications or to upgrade to 1.6. however, you will need to root your phone to install CM or some other 3rd party dists.

Thanks, also what's the difference between using the fastboot or the adb? Is there any benefits using fastboot?
