Is that why you need a Hard SPL to hack it?

So the ROM can either be official or none official but the Hard SPL is going to have to be made by someone else?

I would assume that HARD SPL's are typically specific to given phones and operating systems too correct?

IE the Hard SPL for a Touch Pro is not the same as a Hard SPL for a Touch Pro 2?

So are these Hard SPL's widely made? Is there any best place to get them?

Are the Hard SPL's used for hacking anything else?

Thanks
The hardspl is specific to each device so therefore the hspl for the tp1 will definitely brick your tp2. The hspl's are not widely made, there are an elite few that does this kind of work, the biggest name out of the bunch is cmonex. You can also flash different radio firmware's as well, which may give you better performance depending on location. You won't see too many of this yet since the phone is so new. As far as getting the hspl when its ready would be pretty simple. PPcgeeks is a great place to get alot of information especially if you are using the cdma version of the phone and as soon as the hspl is released we will all know about it.

EDIT: Oh and there is a thanks button too
