Note:-Ur Phone must be Connected to Internet.U must have a Good 3G or Edge Connection !

Always Backup First

Rooting Your Phone:-

-Install Z4root

-Download and install superuser from the market

Installing ROM Manager and ClockworkMod Recovery

-Open Market app, search for "rom manager"

-Install latest version of Clockworkmod rom manager app

-Once installed, go to app draw and open Rom Manger

-Rom manager will then flash your NC with the CWR image

-Once complete you will see the following: "Successfully flashed..."

Performing a Nandroid backup (full system backup)

-Make sure you have an install SD card and you have enough free space available on the SD card.

-Open ROM manager and hit reboot to recovery.

-A pop up will ask if you want to reboot into recovery, press OK.

-Your will reboot and boot into ClockworkMod Recovery.

-Once in CWR,use volume up and down buttons to scroll up and down the menu list.Power button works as "go back"

-Scroll down to "backup and restore"

-Press "unknown" button to enter or go to nex sub-menu (really I dont now which is Select key )

-Press "backup" to start the nandroid backup process

-The backup will take about 10-15 minutes, depending on how much information is being backed up.I

-Once complete, you will be brought back to the main menu and it will read "Backup complete!"

-Now scroll up or down to "reboot system now" and press "unknown" to execute.

-Once booted and back to Home screen, open your favorite file browser

-Make you way to your SD card: folder /clockworkmod/backup/(date of backup)

-Check to see if you have files files: boot image, cache image, date image, nandroid check file, and system image.

Note:- If u find any of theses Files missing After Backup Do a backup again.Usually you will also see a recovery.img (image) file, which is the file that holds the backup for the recovery utility itself. You will see this files with most custom ROM packages.

Now that you install CWR and performed a full system backup, you are, for the most part , safe and free to explore and experience more rewarding (sometimes risky) Android themes, kernels, tweaks and custom ROMs.

U will find "unknown" used in various places,itz boz I dont know Which is the Select Key bcoz I dont own a Blade SO It will be Helpful if someone share's it.

Incase ur Installed Custom-Rom Doesnt work well u can boot into CWR u must press Home+Volume up+Power
