Re: [ROOT] Virgin Mobile Security Update Now Rooted!!! Thanks jca Doesn't matter. I've asked questions in this thread and they STILL haven't been answered. My points were 100% valid. Picks and chooses who he responds to. I don't really care. :)

Re: [ROOT] Virgin Mobile Security Update Now Rooted!!! Thanks jca Anyone figure out a better way to do this? I've been doing this for the past 3 hours every error i do a factory reset and i get stuck at the second to last code. Obviously the OP thinks everyone is a dev and doesn't bother...

Re: [ROOT] Virgin Mobile Security Update Now Rooted!!! Thanks jca Im not sure how this "security update" has a "new radio". I've had more connectivity problems since the update than i ever did before. Like when i get a text my signal/reception drops all bars and the 3g icon disappears. After...

Re: [ROOT] Virgin Mobile Security Update Now Rooted!!! Thanks jca Can you use fastboot or do u have to use the android sdk? Also any additional special drivers for fastboot to make it work?

Re: [ROOT] Virgin Mobile Security Update Now Rooted!!! Thanks jca Well i've spent the past 3 hours trying to learn about how to do this since i depend on my OV and bricking it isn't an option. I was gonna ask what app is good to run for the accelerometer but i'm just being impatient for this 1...

SOLUTION!!!!!! Since your under your 1 year warranty, call Virgin Mobile USA and tell them your phone shut off one day and won't turn back on. Act stupid and follow all their directions...then they will ship you a replacement phone. TA DA! I know its not the best idea nor most original. But...

You don't lose the ability to tether. Just wanted to make that clear. I've successfully installed the security update and i can still tether. I use PDAnet flawlessly. Only problem besides no root is the usb notifications don't always appear in the notification area so i can select usb drive...

It didn't change my PRL either. I modded mine for 60683 PRL. I can tether just fine. However accessing the USB as drive option doesn't seem to always want to come up when i plug my USB cord into the phone and computer. Whomever finds a root method for this "security update" i will gladly be...

This is completely untrue. Use gingerbreak and follow the directions. It's how i rooted mine. Lost nothing. Not sure where the poster got that from. If you install a ROM then yeah you'll lose everything.

Thank you so much!
