Re: Verizon - Official WM 6.1 Update

I have read through every page of this forum and some twice and feel I have learned some things. Nevertheless, Can anyone believe that I am still unsure about updating my Verizon xv6900 Rom? It seems around Pg 13,14 and 15 that things were coming together nicely and simplistically in regards to Rom update 6.1/GPS but after that things started to splinter. I am still hopeful and will declare my desires and possible/hopeful solution. PLEASE let me know whats what and THANKS for any help ahead of time...

My xv6900 is stock WM 6.0

I want:
WM6.1 [ I have downloaded from here- http://www.phonenews.com ] Verizon 3.14.605.1 Update

I want:
GPS to work with TomTom and Google maps

I think I follow this procedure:
1. Back up my info etc.
2. Install WM 6.1 Rom update.
3. Reactivate phone if necc. *228 Option 1, and * Option 2
4 Install Valhalla cab (I am guessing to the xv6900 My Documents)

The verdict please....(on those pages I mentioned this was supposed to be all that it took). The jury is out on this.....

PS some say stop customization some say don't during rom update-that drives me crazy. How does a tech moron like myself know what to do? and when do you do it? if thats the thing to do
