Got a new eris with cupcake. Trackball was bad, i was on 2.1v3. Now I think i want root.my question is. Should I root 1.5 or the ota? If I root 1.5 can I use Google nav?

MAKE SURE YOU DELETE THE OLD PB00IMG.zip from your sd card and your computer, get it away from everything! Wouldn't want to accidentally flash that thinking it was the rooted version...I know someone on here did.

If you have the leak installed and want to trade for a refurb call the 800 number and do it that way. Act dumb, and act like you have no technical skills. Ask them to call a local store and put one on hold. It will be traded at the front desk instead of the tech desk with no questions asked.
