"I have finally convinced her to let me root it..."

Clever girl, feels the risk that daddy may brick her phone. :D

I think XDA Developers would be better place to ask such question, I'm sure there you will find more information and help related with rooting and other similar things. :)

Ron if you just Google Verizon OTA 4.1.1 or you can look on YouTube there are a tons of videos that show how to force the update to her phone. I hope this helps you and your daughter out.

That's not what he meant. She is OK with root but she wants a completely STOCK ROM and not a custom one. I agree though with looking at XDA to get some knowledge before bricking a phone.

"That's not what he meant. She is OK with root but she wants a completely STOCK ROM and not a custom one."

I understand that NOW she is not agains a root, but as I understood, according to this part of sentence she WAS against a root before she WAS CONVINCED:

"I have finally convinced her to let me root it..."

And only then she talks about her conditions:

"...but she doesn't want any custom ROMs."

T-Mobile is not trash - Sprint is. Satisfied customer averaging 20+Mbps downloads and paying $120 for unlimited EVERTHING for two phones. :')

Same here on Verizon and Sprint, except the LTE speeds on both are more like 30mbps. Paying more than that for Verizon and my employer pays for my Sprint phone. I wouldn't call Sprint trash, they went through what AT&T went through when the iPhone launched and they are fixing it just as AT&T did.

As far as TMO goes, their service is fast and cheap but only if you are in a metro area, just on the fringe of a city and you're on Edge, literally.
