Unless you find a kind neighbour you'll have to do it yourself.

Unrevoked makes things really easy. Read DanFrance's FAQs and then read it again. It's straightforward if you follow it to the letter. The most tricky bit is getting the drivers on your PC but there is no risk at all to that bit. Once that's done you just run the program and sit back and leave it.

Id do it if I was closer

Might be in Plymouth soon, if no one has done it for you by then I'll do it

Is the road show coming to the US? I'll be your first customer.

We'll go get BBQ afterward.

What a very nice chap! maybe we could get a group together and you could do them all

 

[EddyOS]

If needed I'd do it, why not!

Same goes for anyone around Liverpool having issues. Assuming the missus wouldn't mind I'd do a little rooting here and there

Keep calm and look for some good guides online. A thread I made when I was a rooting and flashing virgin (yes, I'm aware the latter sounded even dodgier than the former) may be of some help to you.
