Post [Q] HTC surround brand new / AT&T / argentina

Hello!

I have this great phone with me today. I was wondering just 1 thing:

- Could the performance on the OS with HTC hub not be as "smooth" in transitions as they can be?

- I'm asking this because i've an HTC HD2 ... and it works better than the surround?!?!?!

- 2nd thing i have this unlocked to put any SIM and it works fine. Can i loose that unlock if i update the OS with some other ROM? or this is not like the iphone stuff that if u update the BASEBAND gets ****ed up and sayonara unlock?

////

yes i'm an apple guy but i was a PC guy for the last 10 years too. .

so please help me out! thank you!!

AFAIK, you keep the unlock, BUT before you flash any ROM, query its author.

AFAIK is short for "As Far As I Know"

You should check Ansar's posts for new ROMs. You can start here.

You don't need to flash a new ROM to get OS updates. All updates come through Zune, you might need to unbrand your device in order to get the updates (this requires you to "developer unlock" your phone, check this thread for unlocking.)

Have fun!
