No Wugfresh but the CF method is dirt, dirt simple. Just be sure to wait till the drivers load.

Is it the rooting part that wipes your phone, the unlocking of the bootloader, or both?

I unlocked the bootloader right away, which definitely wiped it, but didn't proceed to make backups or root. If i decide to do those at a later date, does it need to be wiped first?
