Time to start asking some people wtf they were thinking  |
Well like I originally told him I am using a version of the Rogers rom that I got from here...
Rogers ROM - xda-developers
BUT! There is some work you must go through in order get this. And anyone who may know otherwise can correct me if im wrong. Now, I am unsure if you have to have root access in order to flash this rom (install on your phone) but I do know you will have to flash the latest SPL and have the latest Radio.
I don't recommend this if you are new to it. I read a lot before I was comfortable. Other then that YOU may have to assign a Rogers APN which will allow you to connect to Rogers network since it was made for US users. If you need to know how to flash the new SPL....PM me and I will get you the instructions.
I would say this is a little more advance but if you can follow the directions then you can do it. There are just a few variables. Like if you don't have a PVT board then you
DO NOT WANT TO FLASH THE NEW SPL and if you dont have the
new radio then you
MUST FLASH THAT BEFORE FLASHING THE NEW SPL.
Just before you do anything read read read and know what you are getting yourself into and always have a backout plan just in case but trying to go back can be just as risky. And know that even experience rooters have had issues, I know Justjimjpc has had his fare share of problems and he is very experienced and well known in this community. I myself temporarily bricked my phone but luckily was able to get it back up and running.
AGAIN do this at your OWN risk. You have to decide if you really think it is worth all the time you WILL invest.
Now if all you want to do is Root your phone that is easy enough. Just refer to Justjimjpc signature and follow those instructions. Untill you have done that don't worry about the rest of this stuff, just take it one step at a time.
