I bought mine from LD and its a Virgin phone, and as far as i know Bell owns Virgin?

Anyway, mine had an adapter which connects to the USB cable to charge

I used the CF Root with CWM. CWM saved me a couple times already. =D

Once you have rooted it, make sure you back up your current rom before you root.

I think you meant Root and then Flash =P.

Go to page 33 and post #819 by Mikroft, he wrote up a really good step by step process.

Took me 5 minutes tops the other day, phone is rooted and unlocked now.

cctw 08-28-2011 10:20 PM

words with friends eats up my battery like no tomorrow...

if i had it on all the time would probably last 5 hours lol

Flashing any ROM will reset the lifetimer back to 0

greent3a 08-28-2011 11:29 PM

^anyway of knowing if the phone was used. I got mines at times telecom metro

sell_item_604 08-29-2011 12:22 AM

ok finally figured out, rooted my phone

ok. which ROM is best atm?
i want to flash but i read that if i flash root is gone so i gotta re root it? damn shouldve flashed first haha

!MiKrofT 08-29-2011 02:28 AM

See if you can boot into Cwm recovery. If you can't you should be fine unless it's an import. There's no way to revert back to fully stock bell firmware without installing cwm recovery.

JayEch 08-29-2011 07:36 PM

Soo yeah they sold my gf a used phone and called it new. Going back tmr to get a new one cuz the apparently the person who sold it to us must trade it in... Arggg. Anyways to make sure we don't get ripped off again can anyone take pics of their box and what's inside. Do it with the phone hehe. Thanks in advance.

Did it come already opened? like no wrapping or stickers, stuff like that.

4.5" is too big for 480x800

LTE can potentially reach peak download speeds of up to 150 Mbps and upload speeds could hit 70 Mbps, today at Rogers we were given a demo of the speeds and they clocked in at
