Windows Mobile 6 Upgrade for this phone??

Jul 27, 2007, 9:27 AM

Had this phone for a while... Actually like it very well except for the flakiness that was injected with the upgrade to v5 of Windows Mobile... anyone know of an upcoming upgrade to v6 (which hopefully will stabilize an otherwise cool phone)?

Thanks in advance.

I doubt there will ever be an official upgrade, but the fine people at PPCGEEKS have created a hacked version. The WM6 "preview" version (it is still being worked on and isn't fully stable yet, but works pretty good for the most part) can be found here:

There is also a more up-to-date and MUCH more stable/fast version of WM5 that they have hacked together (this is what I run until WM6 is more stable and it works flawlessly!):

Happy flashing!
