ROM swap ????
Sorry if this is posted in the wrong section, but I wasn't exactly sure where to ask??
I have a Verizon XV6800 that is very highly customized & I absolutely LOVE the thing. The one thing I have never attempted is a radio/ROM swap however as I use the phone all day for work/business & I can't take even a small chance on "bricking" the thing.......
I just decided to buy a spare 6800 to play with & I bought one off ebay that already has been updated to WM 6.1 & has the GPS enabled (I checked the ESN with Verizon & it's fine).
My question is, can I install my full system backup made with either Sprite or SPB Backup(I have both) to the new phone & still have the 6.1 update etc?? I guess I'm wondering if the BU would overwrite the 6.1 update or is that somehow hard coded into the ROM?? (I don't know what ROM is installed yet)
I am a computer tech & I have been building/upgrading/repairing PC's for years (I have no problem installing Windows from scratch, updating a MB BIOS, replacing a hard drive etc etc etc etc)but I am new to PPC's & I'm still learning the ropes so any advice/info etc you guys can give me in this regard(this site is awesome) is highly apprecaited.....
