    Post Can I root without unlocking bootloader

    *IF* you had an older version you could do a root without unlock, I used this method but I had hboot 1.12 and 1.22.something software. I just wanted to install TB and backup apps and other minor things. If you want to flash ROMs,.you need to unlock - at least that's how I understood things...

    Post Question about sprints TEP plans

    I see the fee as one for unlimited data - way cheaper for me than the other business models. So I'm willing to pay.

    Post [Q] Best Sense ROM for the lady

    For Sense, I also prefer Nitrous and Classic. For non-Sense, I use MIUI but I'm still on GB MIUI which has tons of themes (I don't use 4G even though I live in a 4G area).

    Post CyanogenMod vs MIUI

    You should have the Updater app. Open the app and check for a new version. Even if it says you have the latest one, if you click on download it will download the current version. Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App
