Default H2 to C2 Monster pack - Is it possible??

After a very long time I'm starting another thread. This time I'm going to ask the community to suggest me on a Firmware. I'm currently on the generic .08p firmware that came pre-installed on the phone. Although I've read thro the guide to flashing and firmware a couple of times, I never really found a reason why I need to flash so didn't do it all this while. Now, my Ming is droping calls and doing all sorts of mischiefs that I don't want it to do, so I think its time to give it a boost and hence decided to go for a FW upgrade.

Now the big question is what FW to flash to... I knw I'm on the H2 track and I have to pick one from this track. But sometime back somebody suggested me Amin's Extreme Elite Monster pack. I thought it was a C2 monster pack and I cannot flash to it.

Can somebody tell me if I can flash to Extreme Elite or Persian-Gulf El dorado LP?

Note to Moderators - I've ready through the stickes and still i'm unsure hence posting to the community.

I finally took the plunge to C2 because that is where all the action is... I just flashed to Amin's Persian-Gulf El dorado LP (NEW) and it is awesome. The speed is much better that the H2 track and Amin included all the extras. The default theme is even sweet. I highly recommend this firmware and if you choose to use it flash with RSDlite 3.8. It went flawlessly. Many times in the past I have had to flash more than one time to get different firmwares to take. RSDlite 3.8 will put the phone in the MBR mode for you...Very simple.

Good luck.

Bruce

I was on a H2 long ago with 59p an now i am on Amins Extreme Elite C2,which is the best as of now. Amin's Persian-Gulf El dorado LP (NEW) will be the best but it has a call connect bug which is annoying,once this is fixed it will be bad @ss lol...Hope this helps.

It has a delay when an incoming call comes in an you try to answer.

Thank you all! So, I'll go ahead with the flash, probably today or 2moro. I'll post abt the proceedings once I'm done.

@Bruceleroy - I was abt to try with RSDLite 2.8. I'll get 3.8 and do the flash, Thank you once again.

@MANUP456 - I guess its not just abt the FW in case of the call connect bug. I have it (recently acquired) on my old and trusted .08p. It wouldn't connect incoming calls, it would connect but I wouldn't be able to hear the caller, it would connect but they would be able to hear me. I know how frustrating it is! So I'll stay away from Amin's Persian-Gulf El dorado LP for sometime till it gets fixed that is . I hope Amin corrects it soon!

Until Version 3 is released I'll flash to Extreme Elite MP. Thank you both once again...

Finally I did it today!

I've flashed my mobile to Amin's Persian-Gulf El dorado LP It looks and feels much better than the old .08p. But I'm yet to put in my stuff, only then will I be able to tell if my mission is accomplished...

@Dina
I thought you didnt want to deal with the call connect bug.why not use EE! which does not have that problem an is much more stable at the moment.

I thought I would chk this first, as the call connect bug wasn't reported by everyone. Many had the problem but a few didn't and I thought I would give it a shot and switch down to EE if I had the issue. And fortunately I'm among the few who don't have the issues...

Forgot to mention, although I don't have the call connect issue, I'm hearing a lot of echo at times and only in a few locations. But I think its a network issue rather than a firmware issue coz it happens only at certain places. But I'm just curious to knw why it didn't happen before? May it is because of the increased volume configuration on this FW???
