Thanks! Glad to have the stock firmware available. The service manual say its not a valid pdf file though. Tried downloading twice.

Again though, thanks for your post.

I've split the Telus ROM into a 5 part rar and am currently uploading it to zippyshare (200 MB per file limit), will take a while though cause my upload is not that great :)

I am unable to download the bell file, completes after 19kb, nor the service manual, same results. I have tried from both home and mobile internet multiple times now. If anyone was able to get either of those files and can reshare on a different server, it would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks for these.
So with this firmware, could you take a Telus E973, unlock it, install a new recovery, and then install the Bell firmware?
Basically turning it into a Bell E973.

These include everything and will bring a phone back to stock including all recovery, bootloader, and software.

Whether you can crossflash between the E973's I have no idea, but all you're really going to get for the most part is bell's crapware (I'm guessing) versus telus' lack of crapware.

It's not like it will let you run the phone on a Bell SIM.

All I really want to do is take any Telus branding off the phone. I'm with Bell but there are more Telus versions for sale out there.
Looks like you have a Telus version. Is there a lot of branding during boot, etc?

There really was no branding to speak of on the Telus stock. If you look at the service manual though there are some small differences between the two, so whatever you do is obviously at your own risk :p

What the hell? 900MB LOL

May I ask why it's so big? Samsung stock ROMs are like a third of that, at most.

eh, aosp rom are like 175mb + 100mb for gapps. All the added size is the ****ty optimus UI and the carrier BS.

If you think about it. 900GB isn't too bad considering a Samsung galaxy s3 *.tar.md5 kies file is about 1.1GB
I'm pretty please that Bell's version of the E973. No branding on the phone whatsoever besides the bloatware.
the bootupanimation is just LG and shutdown ani is just LG as well..

edit. *.tot file is roughly 1.3GB after extracted from zip.

has some help

I am in the same boat as you and am trying to follow the instructions in the above link, but I am not sure about the step where it asks you to select a .dll file that says 'e970' as I'm not sure if that is AT&T specific.
