1) Im from venezuela and Ive noticed that in most of your tuts on how to flash u deal with YOUR carriers, like sprint or altell, etc... Can I flash any of your ROMS to my touch, no matter the carrier? My carrier here is Movistar FYI... oh and its GSM, maybe that will affect to...
2) When Im gonna back all my info up b/f flashing... any software will save ALL my info?? Cuz i just spent a whole afternoon configuring my Ultimate Launcher and it would be like a kick in the nuts to lose it =)
3) My phone is already unlocked, i was brought from the US, and it was unlocked (somehow) to make it work with our carriers, like Movistar and Digitel... I bought it from a friend, and I dont know the original carrier, I asked my friend and he didnt know either... sooo should I be concerned about that??
4) Would u be annoyed if I came here while Im flashing to clear any doubts during the process (u can say 'yes', really its ok.. thats why u make tuts)
well, i cant think of anything else right now... Im gonna go to bed, sleep on the idea of flashing and lets see if ur answers help me get through this flashing thingy...
PD: I hate beeing such a noob, but its my first PPC and I want to be sure before trying anything!=)
1. Nah... most of the roms here are cdma, your gonna wanna go to xda-developers dot com... and check out the gsm roms and then come back here for the rest of your ppc needs
2. u an use sprite back up or pim back up but it wonk back up us specific user setting for like UL.. u'll have to do that stuff over manually... thats the case whenever u flash or hard reset...u can look into a app like sashimi or learning how to set up user customization... a bit more complicated but u can back up more stuff... but ull still have to set up something lik UL on your own
3. If you know for a fact that its a gsm (it has a slot for sim cards etc) then, the carrier brand shouldnt really matter, as long as you have your carrier info to set up your setting again so you can get phone and data back functional
4. no, wouldnt be annoyed, just ask in the appropriate area's like the flashing tutorial, or the thread of whatever rom your flashing...
