I used the CF Root with CWM. CWM saved me a couple times already. =D

Once you have rooted it, make sure you back up your current rom before you root.

I think you meant Root and then Flash =P.

Go to page 33 and post #819 by Mikroft, he wrote up a really good step by step process.

Took me 5 minutes tops the other day, phone is rooted and unlocked now.

Flashing any ROM will reset the lifetimer back to 0

Anyways to make sure we don't get ripped off again can anyone take pics of their box and what's inside. Do it with the phone hehe. Thanks in advance.
