Now that we have root is it possible to install themes or icon packs for the stock launcher?

Same as other androids, power off, then press and hold power down while holding power on, when the screen turns on, release power then release volume down once you see recovery.

Just be aware there is not much we can do with stock recovery. And there seems to be some issues, with touching non system partitions and the phone not booting.

As far as I know there arent any custom ROMs about at the moment.

The only way you could install one is to push all the files via adb, but we can't change the stock kernel or recovery at the moment.

As I said before, I managed to root the phone following your guide. Now, the problem is that it doesn't connect anymore to Win7 via USB. Any other experiencing this problem?

CM10 is already in the works, we just have to find a way round the bootloader.

We got root, it just takes time


@naaaaaah:

Have you uninstalled the System Backup App? And tried rebooting the phone again?
