Okay. Quick update. I am building the Cyanogenmod otatools right now to hopefully analyze the boot image and get everything setup for a Cyanogenmod build.

Unfortunately that does seem to be the case, but everyone thought it was dead when I picked up.

Will the Impactor method allow free WiFi hotspot? Which hotspot app do you recommend?

Metropcs doesn't let you hotspot if you have unlimited data plan. I tried the 2.5Gb plan and burned it up in 2 days so had to switch.

Unfortunately MetroPCS and T-Mobile are pretty on top of the whole hotspot thing. You can try WiFi Hotspot (just look for it on XDA), but it is not guaranteed to work. Once we have CyanogenMod, you can do it without an app (usually).

Hi there. I'm kinda new to the forums, but I'm a guy who up until now has just been lurking around and learning all I can about Androids. Anyway, I tried everything I could think of to root this phone (after all, it is a pain in the a** if you don't anymore), and I came up with a program called Kingoroot. It isn't mine, and I just tried it out on some other phones. Just on a whim, I ran it, (after turning on USB debugging on the phone, of course), next connected the USB cable between my PC and my phone, followed the instructions, and it rooted it. I next installed, ran and updated supersu (available on playstore) the phone installed I verified it using rootchecker (also available on playstore). Appears to be a good root!

My system specs are:

android@localhost #1
SMP PREEMPT Thu Jan 2320:06:54

Build number = Y301A1V100R001C85B138

You can download the Kingoroot program free at kingoapp dot com

I'm not responsible for what you do with this sh1+. Hope it helps!
