I'm using a sim-unlocked AT&T i617, and it would be hard for me to get it unlocked again, so any one here using an unlocked i617 get it upgraded to WM6.1? After upgrading do you need to unlock it again? THX!

PS: how long does the software update process take?

I don't know the answer to the first but the answer for the 2nd is about 15 minutes

same here, I'm on Rogers.
The phone unlock is hardware based, not software based.
u could reflash 100 times, it will still be sim unlocked.
