Just wanted to say thank you to dirrk and namebrandon as well as everyone else on here, finally got my phone after a long delay and within 10 mins i was rooted, de-bing'd, de-verizon'd, and had all kinds of useful apps and a full setup...i really don;t understand why so many people are having problems. I was honestly shocked at how quick the root/root explorer was, and honestly couldn't be happier with this phone. All of this was made possible by the great AC/XDA community. Thank you.
