Another positive vote to the PPCGeeks kitchen and the No2Chem 5060 build. I've been running it for over a month now and have had great battery life and also have been enjoying using the GPS (using CO-Pilot Live 6 software).

PLEASE understand that if you flash the entire new Sprint ROM to NOT let the customizations run. It will cause great grief.....

I don't think their has been any exceptions to the fact that you will need to call Verizon Data Services to get a new Authorization key (A-Key). This is documented on all links pertaining to upgrading the XV6800's. They will take you through the process of entering into the phone. It is documented in the second link provided above....

And enjoy a much more improved phone!
