There were a couple of other people that mentioned it in other threads, it's just a software upgrade (not to WM 6 or 6.1 or anything like that)

My text from Alltel told me to go to www.altel.com/software to get the download as well as instructions. The instructions are actually on the Alltel website, but the software is on http://direct.motorola.com/hellomoto/motosupport/source/SoftwareUpdateSummary.asp?country=USA&language=ENS &web_page_name=SUPPORT&strCarrierId=Alltel&strPhon e=Q&strCable=Mini%20USB%20Data%20Cable%20%3Chttp://direct.motorola.com/hellomoto/motosupport/source/SoftwareUpdateSummary.asp?country=USA&language=ENS &web_page_name=SUPPORT&strCarrierId=Alltel&strPhon e=Q&strCable=Mini%20USB%20Data%20Cable ....uh, yeah, that link...

Thanks, and appologies for not searching as I didnt have time to do so at the time...

So Im going to actually download it now, and Ill take it thats its just simple firmware or the like...sux as it says it will erase everything.......oh well...

Thanks again!

I downloaded it last night.. Dont really see a difference. My phone still has random reset problems. Seems like the texts send a little quicker but that may be in my head...lol Make sure you back everything up before you update..

Nah, it's OK. Takes more than that to upset me. Hope I didn't upset you! Did you do the update? Did you have any problems? I kept getting "no phone connected" and after 2 1/2 hrs of fiddling it finally found my phone. Maybe it's a good thing I'm on med's, normally would have gotten a little "upset" (how's that for cleaning up my act?) & thrown it out the window. Did it fix any problems you were having?
