Is unlock enough or do I need to root too? - General Questions and Answers

So with the help of XDA I managed to unlock my Verizon HTC ReZound. I want to move to AIO. Two questions:
1. Has anyone moved a ReZound from Verizon to anything else?
2. Do I need to be rooted or just unlocked to switch carriers?
Thanks everyone!

I have no expierence with your phone but in general you shouldn't have to root to switch carriers.

Mine works fine on stock. You using a custom rom? I know if you're on an older base and trying to use a rom based on a new base you have to flash a partitions zip to get it to work.
I am on stock Rom actually, the only 3 thugs I've done is Unlock HTC Bootloader, Root (which I removed completely), unlock phone to accept any sim... Any suggestions on how to fix it?

Anyway to backup a Rom on a locked stock i4g?

My mother in law has an i4g and is having a lot of lag and app fc so I want to backup everything on her phone including the Rom itself. This is due to the only way of unlocking I have found is through the dev unlock on HTC website. Didn't know if I could do an adb backup without having s-off or unlocked bootloader. Any help us appreciated.
