how safe is it? whos been successful doing this? how much work/time is involved?

what i'm trying to find out is is it worth it? did Cingular really restrict the phone's capabilities that much?

Thanks in advance everyone

It worked on my phone, minus the IM features everything else works so far. It was a long 6 minutes to flash the firmware, and hours to realize I needed the USB flash driver, it was wirth my $13.

agreed.
is cingular super restrictive? not really. There are a few things though.

what it really comes down to is that this is a really cool phone. even with cingy's restrictions it's great. but without it's better.

i posted a lengthy post about it earlier.

my best advice is to do your research first. i used davinci and read their forums thoroughly to make sure i was doing it properly

IM is still labeled as texting but as far as MSN/hotmail you can use EQO
http://www.eqo.com »

and after debranding the phone go to the Sony Ericsson website and it will help setup the phone setting again. Including MMS, email and wap settings.

EQO is an all in 1 IM program and it also is like a mobile Skype phone so if you have unlimited data you can do VoIP (Voice IP) instead of your minutes.
