Hi, can 6600 be flashed, even though there's not a port at the end to be connected?

I have a 6600 operating under chinese OS and would like to change it to English OS.

Please let me know if you know! Thanks!

It is possible to flash with a griffin flashbox but they are expensive. Try to find someone who has it and then you can flash the phone with an english version.

How does a griffin flashbox work? Flash via Bluetooth?

Damn Nokia shop in Hong Kong wouldn't upgrade from Chinese to English OS for me b/c it's their compay & marketing strategy to sell 6600 either in only Chinese or English version. It's so stupid!

Yeah, speaking of customer service and after sale support, they suck! It's so stupid!

Why do you want to change OS? I mean, since you live in Hong Kong, you probably understand their language aswell...

Yeah, but I will be using in North America in the near future and possibly sell it there after a while.

Ok, so I guess need to find someone to flash it for me then...

Thanks!

But even if I buy the griffin (not only use for 6600) where would I be able to get the Flash OS Roms?
