9) The guy who made DrNokSnes for King!
10) Steve Jobs in the stocks at least once a week and a punnet of rotten strawberries to throw for everyone who wants them.

In which case why don't we all flash to global and stop worrying?

So, I have taken matters into my own hands and flashed my phone. It all seems to have worked and didn't take too long. I backed-up first so that I could restore my settings and applications. I used the following resources:
