denti,

Here are some instructions to get you up and running with my new rom...
First, go ahead and download the v.2 rom specific to your carrier(which I believe you said "generic") from my first post. Now, you will want to make sure your data is completely backed up on your device. If so, go ahead and place your 6700 in bootloader mode. Do this by holding the voice record button and power button simultaneously while you press the reset button with your stylus. The backlight should go off and it should say "serial" at the top of the screen. Now go ahead and plug the phone it via usb to an XP machine(not vista!). Navigate to the compressed folder you downloaded containing my rom and extract it. Open up the folder and run "UpgradeUt". Follow the steps, wait for the rom to complete, then hard reset your device and your good to go. Enoy! I hope this helped. If you need any more help, feel free to pm me anytime.

Thanks Shakuyi, I think I'm going to go ahead and put a note about that in my main post. This is going to be a main fix in my v.3 updates. v.3 is going to auto-wipe the ext_rom upon flashing. Hopefully will be released shortly after I get the Sprint v.2 up for download.

Rob, are these still the same directions for v4? I thought I read somewhere that you were taking the carrier customizations out, and I thought I saw someone else mention that it now works in Vista?

great work! one question, why is there a documents folder in the programs group?

i dont know how everyone feels about the file explorer by dutty thats default..
and i know the oem explorer is still in there.. just wondering if its worth switching back or should we all just keep it.

but so far so good with v2 thanks for the hard work!

whats the purpose of modem link if theres already the great working internet sharing?
whats the purpose of file dialog changer in the settings? looks pretty useless to me.

a question: the 1.43 Radio version is compatible for Generic V.2 ROM, or is ONLY for VERIZON?

greetings from Venezuela...
