Okay, this next part sounds like a plan! The "way forward" I mentioned a couple posts above.

Ok, so you are itching to go... the SAFE way to get SOME benefit, without the hairy spiders of AKU3.x attacking, is to just go for AKU2.2 from Wideawake, right here:

http://www.ppcgeeks.com/updated1-2ho...700-t1515.html

Why do that? Couple reasons

(1) it's "carrier safe" - you don't need to understand the extended rom.
(2) it's good pratice - you'll be flashing your rom, and getting a feel for the whole hard reset dance...
(3) AKU 2.2 is very much like AKU 2.0, it has BT DUN, everything works, etc, just a little faster.

It's still a mighty fine bit of work that's often overlooked.

My suggestion is to cut your teeth on that puppy and then if you're still itching to go into uncharted territory, continue on from there.
Okay, that sounds like a good strategy. Baby steps. I will read through that thread, and see if I can puzzle out how to upgrade to that not-too-crazy 2.2 AKU. (Aside: Has anyone besides me watched 'Samurai Jack"? That's what always leaps to mind whenever mentions "AKU".)



If I am successfully able to do this less "exciting" 2.2 upgrade, I will write up my experiance. With detailed notes and instructions. Screenshots, even. After that, maybe the gurus can critique my write-up, and discuss what parts would have to be added to properly document a "real" upgrade, like to 3.3.
