Manarch101 - I too use my phone for everything and for work - and although I work in IT - I would have to say I am a novice when it comes to these ROM based adventures. However, I found the documentation on page 1 of this thread very informative. In a nutshell on the first page - under the heading Telus Dump/HSPL there is link called "How To: Unlocking, Flashing, and Kitchens". Hit the link and you can then copy the locker, unlocker and the Juicy Rom. The rest is more ore less straight forward - unlock your phone, load the new rom, lock your phone, call Telus number to reprogram (*22803) and press 1 and 1 when prompted. Plus the instructions are also on the first page on how to get the GPS working. It all worked and I have had no problems. In fact I was expecting a disaster - but instead so far am very impressed by all this and how simple it really was.

There is no need to relock unless you're taking the phone back to the store...

But you're welcome:P

Up until few days ago battery life of Diamond was a huge issue for me. Was barely managing to have phone operational for half a day. So, i upgraded to Juicy ROM (he already has most of power saving tweaks running).

Also make sure you don't so anything stupid like i did. Due to my field of work i have 7 email accounts. I set them all up to be checked every 5 minutes So no wonder my battery was dying out.

Today i talked for about hour and a half and checked my emails about 4 times. Send few text messages and listened to few tunes, by the time i got home battery was still at 44%, so all good.
