Hello all, I am a new member to the forums. I found this spot through google and it saved me a nice little pile of cash. I bought an OptimusV from ebay which had C7/IHO on it. This was my first andriod AND Virgin Mobile phone so I thought I was getting a great deal buying it pre-modded. Long story short, I couldn't activate it..then I factory reset it and *poof-brick*. I had two choices, I could meet a guy from Craigs List in a dark alley or take a crash course in android repair. I chose the latter. I found a thread specifically for my phone and issues, and the instructions were there step by step. Thanks to you guys my first android is alive and activated. I will find the specific thread and give thanks where it is due. Thanks for being here! 

Glad you found us useful already.
