Smile Two questions about 4.5 upgrade
The first question I think I know the answer to. I just upgraded my 8310 to 4.5.0.102 and I'm really pleased. My wifie has asked me to do the same to her 8310. The question is..... Can I just plug her phone in to the PC and let it do it's thing since the DM reads her PIN? I won't be clearing out her store info and loading mine int her phone, right? As the DM will back up and copy her file.
Second question... I don't even think I know the answer to....
What is the latest, or most stable OS for 8310, and how will I know when newer cooler versions are release?
Sorry about all the wordiness, easy questions to answer are not always easy to ask. Teehee.
( The DM will recognize her phone as a different devise, and recognize that it is in need of an update??) That's less wordy....

1. You are on the right track. Do exactly what you stated and you should be good to go.

2. Personally, I've switched my former Curve's OS 4 times and almost never saw much of any difference that I thought stood out. I would recommend just finding one that you're comfortable with and just sticking to it. I really don't think at this point that there will be any breathtaking changes coming aboard the 4.5 upgrade anytime soon.

Thumbs up Thanks Thanks Thanks
That's what I thought, I just didn't wanna go clicking O.K. til I knew for sure.
Also thought it would be a good post for others to read, I'm sure I'm not the only one wondering.
