Well, I successfully de-virginized my 6700 yesterday (I was gun-shy about doing anything radical to it ever since my first one bricked on me for no apparent reason while I was at JavaOne & left me without a phone for days). I decided to go for WM6 after all, partly because this kitchen seems to be a huge improvement over the older ones. A few questions, though, as I get bolder and plan reflash #2...
a) Is there any reason to use a RUU-type besides "Standard"? I have a Sprint PPC-6700 that seems to have the 1.0 bootloader (if I reset while holding voice command & power, I get a screen that says "USB 1.0")
b) Did I read correctly somewhere that I should ALWAYS launch the bootloader before trying to reflash (it's kind of a blur, but I vaguely remember reading somewhere that you CAN flash without launching the bootloader, but it's somehow riskier)
c) Are any of the alternate dialers (HTC Touch, etc) pictured on page 2 of this thread part of the kitchen, or are they all installed afterward? I'm particularly interested in the dialers that omit the dial/hangup buttons (since the hardkeys are right there anyway) and use the screen's full width for 3 buttons instead of 4.
