Verizon Wireless XV6800

Official Rom Update as supported by Verizon Wireless and Manufacturer UTStarcom

http://handsets.utstar.com/downloads...%20Upgrade.zip

Instructions inside.

Have not tried this rom as im using a temp hack rom to properly use GPS (Only Verizon Wireless xv6800 GPS were normally locked before this ROM update so you had to use a hacked rom in order to use the built in GPS for the PDA as you all well know)

This update not only "officially" enables Rev A but also updates memory compacity (able to use 8 gig micro cards). Has built in chat style SMS (conversations are now linked together). To say from Verizon Wireless its now officially "VZNavigator Capable" (Most likely meaning the GPS has been officially unlocked.) In addition to other updates to software and possbile fixing of glitches.

I will be backing up and updating my rom by tommorow. I will have details of this release then.
