Check the link in my sig if you need help flashing your first rom, but like the others said, some details on what you're having trouble with would be helpful.

If you are looking for the signature from your phone then you can't see it in the app. You have to go to xda in your web browser to see it.

Sent from my ADR6300 using XDA App
It's worth a shot, if you RUU and it still doesn't work I'd imagine it' fried.

Yeah, that's what I would do. Plus if it doesn't fix it, it's ready to send in. Just make sure you use unrevoked's s-on tool first (before the RUU) so you can send it back.
Yes I have that downloaded thank u for the advice

Could flashing a bunch of roms break it? Mine used to work amazingly..

Careful. Learning can be hazardous to your phone
OMG that guide worked fantastically. Also, droidfiles.us had a guide that was almost identical so if anyone is having issues you can also use that one. Thank you so much for the info on where to get files and where to look for the guides. wish i could +1 you or something but I'm a noob lol

One note, the guide on droidfiles.us, the step regarding the bootloader has the bootloader name missing a zero.

Need help with Rooting

So I used the Odin one touch root here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1835033&highlight=fh13+root
And it all seems to work fine, and I even got the PASS in the program, but when it rebooted, I got the Android System Recovery.
I hit reboot device in the Android System Recovery and it turned out that my device was not rooted, didn't even get the Super User app...thing.
So any help is appreciated with my situation. I did make sure I have ICS and FH13.
Did you use the rooted one? I think it's in post 2?
