i've been trying to figure out if i would like to root my T-Mobile G1. i have unlocked it and it now works in Mexico with TelCel where i just buy minutes every so often. i don't use their data network because it's more expensive and because the WiFi works on my home and work networks very well and i just use SipDroid for calls when in the U.S. and the TelCel system for just regular phone calls when in Mexico.

Will i have to unlock this thing again if i root it?

Have a great evening!

 

Thanks, Jonnyflash for the info and help.

So unlocking really has to do with taking it off T-Mobile's network and making it "open" which allows the phone then to be hooked up to a different network via the sim card. This means that i need to write down the info about TelCel's network that is contained in the OS so i don't have to go back to their store and have them reset it.

O.k., will i still be able to connect to the Market and download and install at least the same apps as before?

Thanks again, and have a great afternoon!
