    Confirmed working folks. I'll write up an HTC specific one that doesn't confuse users with Prime stuff. Should be up later tonight.

    Sad panda, we pop'd a seperate root on this phone today, kinda blew my night out of the water.

    Not a sad panda at all. That's another exploit for future use. ;)

    Okay everyone. Uploading a tool in 5 minutes. :)

    Added a warning to OP. There will be the sluggish issue until we release a tool tailored for us. Give me a bit to play around and confirm i can get it working then I'll post the tool.

    rm /data/local.prop would likely remove said sluggishness (if it exists)


    sidenote,
