Help Note for the mods

Just a suggestion, but there seems to be a lot of confusion as to which carrier people are talking about on this phone. Maybe you could start separate forums for metro pcs and T-Mobile the way the optimus F6 has its all things root sub forums?

We're going through site updates so I'm going to ask for your patience on this. If you don't hear anything please drop me a line next weekend.

Meanwhile - isn't MetroPCS the same as T-Mobile from a root standpoint? Or am I wrong (I often am)?

Thanks!

The metro is on 4.4.2, and the T-Mobile is on 4.2.2. I also remember reading of people on xda flashing the T-Mobile rom to the metro phone and needing to then buy an unlock code to use their service. Someone please correct me if I'm wrong...

Apparently not, as TM customers seem to have 4.2 and Metro customers are getting 4.4.

Root method is the same though.

Frankly, I don't think there's enough traffic here about this phone to warrant separate forums (there's barely enough for one). Maybe just a sticky telling posters to mention which version they have.
