Qwest specific everything

a qwest ppc 6700 (QWEST is not a cell
carrier anymore)
Hi,
Can you help me?
I know you are probably bored with
these phones and questions. I'm simlilar to the guy who got one at
goodwill, and you said "load some roms!"
I would like to be able to talk on it with a
voip app but none seem to work.
I have what came with it on it, and
Google maps and a chess game and ppc hacks, and opera.
What else can i do with this, because it
only works with WiFi because Qwest is
dead.
I cant find anything Qwest specific to
upgrade with, and I'm not understanding some of the lingo. I want to put the
most cool stuff on it I can.
Also it has no storage card and the mini
SD is obsolete, I guess I can get an
adapter. I wonder what's the max
external storage it will recognize. So it's running the most programs it can
right now.
I would like to get the most possible out
of it, just for fun!! I use it at the coffee
shops.
I wonder about watching video streams. The you tube apps don't work. Edit Report Moderation Go (0) All time

You can get Mini SD for next to nothing and put it in. I believe on the stock Rom you can only go to 2 GB. With a custom Rom you can go up to 16, maybe more. I can get you a working you tube cab here in a sec.

O.k. That link for Youtube cab goes to a link for an android os youtube at google. Sorry, mine is WM 5

Next, I would really like a rom for my qwest upgrade to WM6.5.
My bootloader is ver. 1.02

What could I do to get it to be a phone again? I know Verizon and Cricket and Sprint are available networks around here.

That's it so far!

thanks tinkerbell.

O.k. Instead of that link to the 2.44 youtube, here is one attached to a message in the apache forums here.

It doesn't work.
It says, "error. could not connect. problem with network connection."
I'm using only wifi of course, maybe that's why.
Thanks.

Humm... that cab is still working here. Is your data connection working when you get that error?

Yes my wifi is good.
It still wontwork.
Do you have a rom for a qwest bootloader 1.02?
Wm 5 to wm 6.5?
Maybe need a new wm before youtube works?

Unfortunately, I don't have the files for your carrier. I think you mentioned that you don't use your device for a phone, is that correct?

Not as a phone now. Qwest is no longer a carrier for cell. Could flash it for Sprint or Verizon and get the latest compatible WM for it?

Thanks much.
