I would like to root my HTC one V and install a custom rom but I have never done it before and would like a bit advice.
(A) Check your device will not be network locked ? How do I check this
(B) Bootloader should be unlocked on your HTC One V. So unlock your HTC One V bootloader. How do I do this ?
(C) Ensure that your HTC One V is rooted with custom recovery installed, otherwise root it first according to it’s current official firmware base ? How do I do this ?
Also I see a lot of people use revoke but my phone is not on there web site list ?
(D) when you root your phone and put a custom rom on it, does it unlock the phone for any network provider.
(E) This is a contract phone still 6 month left on it so how do you back up the original firmware incase you need to send it back for repair.
Cheers for any info people the main reason I want to custom rom my phone is to debadge it and get rid of the virgin media and HTC software that eats the phone, would be nice to try differnt platforms aswell.
Also is this a good rom to try " Suprimo Custom Rom " Ive read its the best one for HTC one V although its a bit dated I see it,s nearly a year old.
