No dude. Quit trying to give advice. You're giving outdated advice too! Please just stick to reading and trying things for yourself for now.

I feel there are several noobs that need to consider taking this advice. Read and learn more before trying to help. People needing help should really consider viewing the profile of who is helping before proceeding.

Download the battery saver and click on root tool I guess (only because I don't remember what it was called exactly)
After finding that program it took just a couple minutes for me

If all you want is try out new ROMs, no need to root. Follow the instructions for NVFlash (search the Dev thread).

Did you remember to Wipe before installing CM7? Wait, how'd you install the ROM? Did you flash ClockWorkMod using NVFlash or Rom Manager? Please tell me you didn't use Rom Manager.

You need to use nvflash to install clock work, then flash stuff.

Try searching. All your questions have been answered many times. With a simple search you could have had all your answers instead of waiting. BTW, many people don't reply to threads like this as they are tired of people asking questions that can be answered by searching first.
ilovebeerdanny: as a fellow newcomer I can share my experience which is that this community is super cool and filled with people who will help you out but no-one here is going to hold your hand. You're much more likely to get help if people see you've done your homework first.
When reading answers to your question pay attention to who's giving them. There's a reason members like jboxer and FatalityBoyZahy have high Thanks meters.
Welcome to the forum and have fun.

I was running Venom ROM ICS and wanted to try out the JB version so I download it and it boots up and naturally, I start to play around. I installed titanium backup again to get my things back and it tells me I have no root. I say whaaaaa!? I then download a rootchecker app from the store and it confirms I have no root. How the world did that happen?
I panicked and booted into recovery and restored the backup I made before flashing the ROM. Now I can get back into fastboot and recovery but when I try to boot up it is a black screen. Should I RUU and start all over or am I salvageable?

you should never use someone else Nand backup, even if its for the same device. if you want to return back to stock the way it come by, go here www.sammobile.com and search in your model number.
