How to Unlock the LG Rumor Touch - VM510 from Virgin Mobile (possibly others)

[Alex F450]

Very nice. Even though i was able to get my SPC / MSL from virgin mobile this is a great way to do it if you can't. I'll be writing something up here in the next few days on how to completely unlock 3rd partys apps so that they are able to get full network use as well as customizing the brew os that virgin locked down.

Very nice though!

Brilliant!! I was looking for just that feature myself! I've got a dozen or so favorite applets that are currently pigeon-holed in the 'Needs Internet' category. I'll try REALLY hard to wait patiently!

Everyone else.. I can't tell you how pleased I am, across the board all the forums are reporting 100% success!

There are no proven methods yet (that I know of) Now that we can unlock the phone, we can start looking for a method to make it happen.

My first suggestion would be to Google 'LG Touch tether'.. it might help to add in -env3 and -env. Next suggestion would be to dig through these two threads at howards and take note of all the useful info for tethering:
[Only registered and activated users can see links. ]
[Only registered and activated users can see links. ]

Third suggestion, and possibly the most useful, would be to adapt this info:
[Only registered and activated users can see links. ]
[Only registered and activated users can see links. ]

Just a couple of gems I've been hanging on to until I get around to looking into it. Good luck!

P.S. Somebody (hint-hint!) should start a thread here specifically related to tethering the Rumor Touch!

Keep up the Good work! Cant wait to try this out, and it will sure be great being able to use my phone as a modem.

I have tried the pdf viewing to make the phone unresponsive but it seems that the phone loads them all up fine. There is no delay
