You have nothing to lose. Give it a try.
Dont worry about that old post you ran across while searching about a user claiming his phone exploded and getting impaled with shrapnel from the prl loading process. It was investigated and proven to be false. :hehehe:
Get your feet wet I did. I dont know much at all (nearly nothing) but I had to jump in and get my feet soaked. I dont think my feet will ever dry. I did have some very good help from great people on this site but that was after they seen I did do alot of leg work myself beforehand.
Good luck
