No I haven't upgraded yet... I'm reading everything over 3 times.. righting down everything I might need... you know the typical anal things... this is my work phone so I want to make sure it gets up and running.... dum questions.... I really don't mind the way my phone works now (lots of people post I hate this, hate that) but want to add GPS to it. what is the best approach to only add gps? I get into this whole kitchen thing and it gets confusiing.. all I reallly want to do for my first attempt is turn on GPS and leave the rest as it is now... know what I mean? then I'll tinker...

i know exactly what you mean, thats all i wanted to add the first time myself and have been working on building a kitchen thats as close to origonal as possible. although there are some handy things in the kitchen that i have added like the "Slide to unlock" and the WMP today plugin and GPStoday. i also have a little cab that will revert the text msg back to individual text messages instead of the threaded type (i hate that) the one thing i wish i could find is the origonal 7 button comm manager but im probably going to have to figure out how to port it into the kitchen off of my backups

maveric why did you recommend the No2Chem_5060 instead of the PPCKitchen standard 5060?? did you upgrade via USB or the card? just curious.. thanks so much for walking me through this..

In the PPCkitchen BuildOS in the No2Chem selections you can choose US. Cellular as the carrier the others you cannot, unless it has been updated to do so in the past few days. thats why i say to use the No2Chem 5060 WM6.1 setup

Hope tha clarifys it a little bit

well I took the plunge and upgraded yesterday.... there was one very anxious moment but I logged into chat here and someone fixed me up quick!! GPS works, but the phone is much slower than before. next dumb question how do I get some of the programs off the phone as I was so nervous picking stuff in the Kitchen I ended up with more than I need, stuff I don't like and duplicates but under remove programs I don't see any programs... I'm hoping this will help with the speed and memory.. only other comment for some reseaon my phone says CellSouth in phone mode or main page but I did change it to US Cellular in NAM settings.... don't want to advertise I hacked it.. Do I go through the Kitchen and unselect stuff I want off and reflash?? thanks again for all the help and support!!
