Also two big notes are that this build unlocks Global roaming (meaning you can now stick GSM microSIM cards right in the phone and they will connect.

I just had a question on this. How does one know Global Roaming is enabled by default and working? Settings/Mobile Networks/Network Mode and just switch to GSM/UMTS? We don't need to call Verizon at all? If that's it, I wish I had this over the past summer for my Euro trip.

That's correct. Or you can set it to "Global" mode in the same options there, that should work too.

To clarify, if we are 100% factory stock can we still flash (download #8) this via Odin to upgrade to jelly bean early?

Yes but remember that #8 will not allow you to root afterwords as the manual root method has been patched in Jelly Bean (this is why I only posted it for reference only). Hence why I recommend flashing #9 and then just doing a factory reset if you want to be 100% stock with a way of getting root later if you continue my guide after Step 1.

Can this be used to get back to stock?

Personally I have never used Heimdall but if it knows how to work with ODIN images then it should be able to. Someone else who has more experience with Heimdall want to chime in about this?

I don't recommend it unless you know what you're working with there. I recommend Download #9 instead and then just do a factory reset. Effectively you will achieve the same results.

Ok, thanks. Yeah, if anyone else knows better, I'm getting the error "firmware.xml is missing from this package."

[christerask]

anyone use this as their daily driver yet? Notice any issue? Is this the official verizon update?

[Kulahpac]

Ok. Im a little confused here. Having some issues. I have the rom installed via odin and i flashed cwm touch recovery via odin but now when i try to reboot recovery to install the bootloader/root zip file.... it wont let me into the custom recovery because i dont yet have root. Make sense to anyone? Where am i going wrong here?
