I got the OEM rom off of the UTstarcom site.
and I used helmi's WM6 build.
I went into the local shop today, the said it was a software bug, told me I had to call their 800# to get a replacement, and assured me it would be a new one, not a refurb... I call the 800# and they assure me I have no choice but a refurb...
but I will have it by wednesday.
