Hello all. I've been wanting to give Republic Wireless a trial run, without splurging the $179+ for a new Moto G. One can get a used Defy quite cheap these days. Who has had success rooting and installing a newer ROM on a Republic phone? Is this even worth the small cost and effort? Any tips or advice would be much appreciated.

Hello guys,
my Japanese girlfriend bought a X01HT with the intention to use it abroad (after the unlock patch), but after using the device for some time, she is not very happy with it and gave it over to me (^^)/
Well, as I have no use of it, I would like to know if anybody here is interested in buying it.
We got the device beginning of November, so it does not have the limitations of the after 2nd December devices.
The imei-patcher was applied, so you can use every Sim Card with it.
Also I flashed the Cingular 1.34 English ROM on the device, so everything is in English.
The device looks like new and has no technical problems.
So is anybody interested ?
If so, you can PM me.
Ah, currently I am in Tokyo, so I would prefer someone from here. Of course we can meet and you can have a look on everything before the deal !
Well after much swithering I've decided to replace my iPhone 3G with an HTC HD2, I've gone for it over a Nokia N900 or Google Nexus One as it to me seems the better device than the N900 and also has worked out much cheaper than importing the N1 from the United States.
Couple of queries, its brand new and sealed from someone who upgraded on T-Mobile, does anyone know if T Mobile UK include the pouch for the HD2 that comes with it elsewhere?
Also what should I do first when I get my device, I know there are a wide range of ROM's and cooked ROMs, etc what is the best one to use?

If anyone is still interesed in buying a x7500
Hello there,
If anyone is still looking for a x7500 to play with I have one not doing much since I bought my HD2 so am looking to sell it on. It's a T-Mobile Amro branded unit that I bought from a dutch chap a while ago and was happily running with my O2 sim.
Currently has SPL3.5 and Lennies Hulk rom installed and is in full working order. I have a couple of cases, the original manual and a charger with a Euro mains connector and the bodywork is in good condition with just a few sctaches here and there.
If anyone is interested I am happy to post pics up of the unit. I will happily ship anywhere just let me know so I can work out a price for you.
Andy,
i want to sell mine too (x7500, the silver one, t-mobile) currently with michis 6.5 rom and spl 3.5 i think. i wanna buy a htc windows phone 7 gadget.
so if someone is interested please send me a pm.
hey guys,
So i was recently in the UK so i picked up a Xoom WIFI.. i know it was a bit of a risky thing seeing that I live in Bermuda which is US Friendly as far as electronics and voltage.
My questions is what are the major difference between the UK and US Xoom besides the MZ604 and MZ600?
Am i putting myself at a major disadvantage my having the UK version in a US territory?
Also is there a One Click Root method for XOOM WIFI MZ604, because i cannot get a Android SDK set up for the life of me on my new computer.
Thanks in Advance.
You may experience a slight disadvantage from buying a Non-US Xoom as evidenced here :

basically i can just load US firmware on then its not UK xoom anymore?
The US Wifi is MZ604 as well.
You are not putting yourself at disadvantage by having a UK wifi xoom.
Correct. Load the US firmware and get the upadte to 3.1. I've done it and I'm in the UK. It's the exact same model, just different software.
DONE! thanks guys there is a really good thread going that has exactly how to do it! now i just have to use this ugly converter until my US charger is shipped. =)

in case anyone wants the thread. to switch to the US ZOOm software and upgrade to 3.1
HI all
I have CM 10 on my defy which works brilliantly. I want to trade my phone in to one of these recycling places (Mazuma Mobile, Envirophone, etc) so I am looking for a UK rom (SBF) to flash. I tried the GB retail and vodafone roms to no avail. Or do you think these recycling places wil still give you a working phone trade in price even if it has a custom rom.
Many thanks
Chris
