Re: How to upgrade an xv6800 with the new Sprint ROM
Okay, I guess this would be a good time to say I am new to the whole PPC thing. I just know that since this thing has Windows on it, it should have more capabilities than it does from the factory. What does this Mod do (ie, why do it)?
And what the heck it a boot loader? The guide is pretty clear on the "How" I just need some terminology updates. Feel free to link me to a different thread to figure this out.
I am curious as to the "Why"
EDIT: Basically, here's what I want to do: I want GPS (like Microsoft Streets and Trips with GPS...it's free to use after buying the program, no monthly fees) that I can use without a monthly subscription, I want all the normal voice/TXT, and pix/flix messaging capabilities, and be able network to my laptop to use it's internet connection on my phone so I don't have to get 2 seperate Broadband packages from Verizon (I have the old Unlimited Broadband, I ain't giving it up! LOL) (basically an install in my truck to use my laptops wireless as a mobile "hot spot"). I anyone can point me in some, if not all, of the direction I need to do this, it would be great!
