Root [Boost Mobile] The Sad truth, a little update on the status of things.

nope... there are actually competitors to the Canadian sister company which is Telus/Mike/koodo... Public Mobile is a very small company compared to Telus Sprint or Rogers or AT&T... Their network coverage area, is Only in Two cities... Montreal and Toronto... and NOT the way in between either... Montreal is in Quebec and Toronto is in Ontario... It's a four and a half hour drive while speeding :p... That's why the Public Mobile ROM has roaming... :)
 
Ok cool...wondered about that but never enough to bother really research it lol. It may be possible for you guys to get ics or jb as an official update...

Root and restore by binary will work. Seriously smartmanvartan? You didn't see me over in the kyocera rise/hydro section?

:):p;):)
 
The only reason that I haven't gone to the sequent yet is because I don't have a year yet with this phone also because I'm waiting for more support to go to that phone.

That was true for the initial release of the source and we were using modded blade/fury source...but the source currently provided by zte is compilable as is and I believe is the base for both custom kernels.

The base for both custom kernels is Hroark13's modified source,
as it was posted back then when zte rereleased our source, it still had headset audio issues. I prefer the hroark source, as i am sure dm does also..
the Sequent source needed to be fixed. I myself, fixed that source. Mind you it was minor issues, but none the less, needed to be fixed

My bad...guess I must have assumed that since the stock source had finally been successfully compiled that was what you guys were using as your base now

it does work, but i like giving hroark credit for my work :)
also, I still have the belief that zte took his source, and released it. But who knows :)

yea I saw ya there :)... I just got the phone yesterday... I can't seem to get the root to work tho i think it's a driver issue... Public mobile once again managed to give us a modified version of a phone that exists... every android device they released except for the warp is only available at public mobile...
