[Q] Can anyone help?

Ok this might seem a stupid question but i am anoyed by the market.

I am with bell canada (quebec) and now i search for great apps in the market but I can't even find appbrain (wich I had on my Samsung Galaxy S)

If i Root my Motorola Atrix (MB860 Version 2.2.2) Will I be able to see all apps in the market?

I'm afraid to Brick my phone

Thanks!

You know this isn't really a stupid question. I have noticed when going from rom to rom,that search results in the market are different. Kinda strange lol

To tell the truth,to the best of my knowledge, there is no safe or easy way. Just read,read....read some more,until you think you got it,then go for it. The best guide your gonna find is always located in the stickys. As far as best rom,some can throw opinions, but a rom always come down to what the users prefer. Like I said,reading and reading is the best way to go.

is there a Noob Version lol!!

Why dont you hang on tight a few more weeks. I have an AT&T version (which I bought and unlocked to put on Telus), and I installed the 2.3 Gingerbread update and I have that app installed on my Atrix. Honestly, the new market looks great. Have you got the update to that yet? If it hasn't updated from the market google "android market update" and you will find it. It makes things a lot easier to navigate.
