Hey, Hey Everybody! New to PPCGeeks (awesome Site), waiting for my phone to arrive by WED, but already doing research via the forums. Started with this nOOb guide, but wanted to know the most important things that I need to do first. Should upgrading to WM 6 be the very first thing I do? Any other threads that give a step by step approach to upgrading my PPC-6700, what to install, what to stay away from? Suggestions are welcomed!! Thanks in advance!!

actually I'd suggest playing around with the device with whatever ROM comes with it first. Then after a day or two, upgrade to the WM6 version. This way you'll appreciate how much faster and less "buggy"/lock-up prone the device is with WM6. But yeah, I'd recommend the WM6 upgrade and possibly the radio upgrade if the phone hasn't already been upgraded yet. All the information you need is already posted, but most of what you do to the phone is trial and error....so happy flashing!

Any updates on this thread? And updated links to the programs mentioned previously? I'm currently running ROM V.3.60.70WWE (ROM Date: 08/31/07); Radio Version: 1.41.00 all on WM6.0

I'm just wondering if there IS or will be a n00b guide to upgrading to WM6.1. Or do I need to upgrade? Suggestions?

Would it be better to upgrade to a basic "generic" WM6 ROM first?
Also, how do I update the Radio?
Thanks...

I have some of the same questions... My xv6700 has radio vers 1.10, how do I update this? Also is there a listing of the pre-cooked roms out there that are noob safe?

Has all this been tested on VISTA?

Im running Vista...I know I know, and the only pain Ive had from my apache is when I flashed it onto bootloader v2.05. I could not get the device to show up in mobile device center let alone reflash the rom/fix.

heh, it took a macbook dual booting xp
