Root How do I know if my phone is MarvelC

[cheeks123]

I would like to root my phone and after install a custom rom.
But as I understand you need to know what phone you have.

Either MetroPCS, Marvel/A510e, Other MarvelC

this is what my phone says:
Marvel PVT shop s-on RL

Do I need to choose for Marvel or MarvelC roms?

Marvel roms.

If you use a SIM card, then it's marvel. Othewise it's marvelc

 

[cheeks123]

thanks.
yes I use a simcard.

to make sure I do the right thing. I follow these instructions:
[Guide] How to root the Wildfire S with S-ON (finally!)

and after I install [ROM] Unofficial Cyanogenmod 7.2 (UPDATE) (Full maintenance release)

 

[Caro332]

Yep. But the thing with Cyanogen is that google apps are not supported. So after flashing the rom, before restarting, make sure you install 'gapps'. Otherwise you won't have the play store and won't be able to install any apps.
Oh and before you flash anything, make sure you make a nandroid backup. The explanation should be in the guide
