43. Can I flash my V3M with V3C firmware?
While the phone will function, the V3C's firmware does NOT support the Transflash slot, VCast Music, Verizon Music player, MTP Device mode Sync with Windows Media Player, etc... and there is no LEAKED V3M firmware file to flash back! In other words, flash your V3M with V3C firmware, and you've turned your V3M hardware into a V3C phone... UPDATE: (12/9/06) a Verizon V3M Monster Flash HAS BEEN LEAKED!!! So you can revert back to the Stock "out of the box" Verizon firmware.

BTW, I haven't heard about the V3C's firmware being any more responsive.

PS. Don't forget to check out the Verizon/Moto section here -> http://www.howardforums.com/forumdisplay.php?f=294 as that is where most of the Verizon related phone discussion happens...

so basically i can flash with the v3c firmware, and if i wanna go back to the v3m firmware i can right? meaning if i wanna use the original firmware, i can simply redlash with the v3m monsterflash correct? and there are a few things like transflash that wont work.
