I just bought this phone off of eBay, and I'm trying to root it. From what I read I have to install CWM recovery then flash a rooted stock 2.3.3. So I try to install cwm recovery. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1056847 but I am stuck at step 4 after I plug in the usb to my phone while holding the volume bottoms... nothing pops up, no window saying detects a new APX device. Please help this noob.
