I had both T-Mo prepaid and postpaid plans in the past. Reception was identical

did that as soon as it came out for verizon. I also unlocked it so i can use any simcard in it. so many walk thrus and that its nearly impossible to brick. unless you really screw up bad. =T

sadly 3 weeks later i returned it for an ip5.

I just rooted mine a couple hours ago, I read a lot on various android forums. The xda developers forums are amazing as far as the information that is out there. I haven't flashed a rom yet but I will be doing that in the next day or two. Here is a video that explains it. I was scared ****less that I was going to brick my phone, but after I did it I couldn't believe how easy it was. Seriously I don't see a way to screw this process up.



Edit: if you look at that channel he has videos organized by phone and he shows how to flash a different rom to the phone after rooting.
