[simon4201986]

Ok im an idiot with this kinda stuff im not a computer wiz anyways.my DROID is busted all to he'll cuz I work construction im just a dumb welder hoping one of you guys or girls that seem pretty smart in this stuff would help me? I bought a commando from somebody one of my friend actually and he failed to tell me it was on a neg list on his contract for not payin the bill. I can't get it hooked up on my contract for now cuz I can't get his number off. I heard I could root it which I still only understand that it deletes stuff you don't want.will that get the number erased too and free the phone up so I can use what I paid for. Somebody help plz he don't have money to five back and it would be nice to be able to use it for something besides a void space on my table.thanks

You'd have to talk to verizon about that one, rooting will do a lot of things, but I think changing stuff like esn or meid can't be done with only root access (bootloader access required.) not to mention that changing the esn/meid is HIGHLY illegal...
