Before I dicked with my phone at all I made sure I had the files and programs to bring it back to stock. You may want that if it's possible before you attempt the GB switch.

Once I had the factory restore I didn't care. At worst my phone was dead until I got home and I could ODIN it back to stock and then redo everything.

I did see something about CWM (clockwork mod) on that thread when I scanned it. It's quite handy becasue you can make an image before you screw with the device. If it gets borked, as long as you can get back into CWM you should be able to restore the image and be back to where you started.

The Chinese are stealing all of our secrets. The Russians are stealing all of our money.

Kind of what I want to do. At least be fairly confident I can get back to the factory settings and not just have an expensive paperweight.

If you want to be a true techie, the correct term is "brick," as in, "Don't brick your tablet."

QuoteThis usage derives from the fact that some electronic devices (and their detachable power supplies) are vaguely brick-shaped, and so those that do not function are useful only as actual bricks


and we all know, bricks make wonderful paperweights...

Always been afraid to try the water cooling. Don't trust the Chinese to build it water tight.

That's why I built everything other than the waterblocks myself. That was in the mid 90's, there wasn't water cooling kits out then.
